Dropped in his tracks.
Season here runs right at two months (Nov/Dec). Then we have a two week doe & spike extension first couple weeks in Jan. This hunting is hard work. I need a nap![]()
It really has been fun so far. Couple of Javelina hogs, 4 bucks of 8pt or better, one Gobbler, one ratcoon in one trap, and a skunk in another one. Dad claimed he pops the skunks and they don't spray.... I won't be hunting that area for a week or so.![]()
It should be fun! You guys bagged more game in one season than I did in my lifeLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! How are javelina for table fare? Delicious????
Jim,,,you gotta move to Texas. All there is to it. Sat in one stand and watched 7 bucks romp and tromp trying to intimidate each other one afternoon. Pricless.
Mom fried up the javelina backstrap and was really good. No wild taste, tho she said she soaked it in vinegar for a while prior to cooking it. Don't know if she really had to do that or not. The shoulders and hams, we ground and mixed with venison and made pan sausage. Excellent!
Way to go Packrat.I see you got your buck. What a nice one.:thumbup: I want get to go back to London until Dec. 16. So send some up our way. Jeff![]()
29, boy that is cold.I wish I was there.I got honey doe's to do for the mrs.The deer on up your way may be a tad larger than around here, hopefully anyway. Hope you get a good one. We are headed home the weekend and then back for Christmas for another couple weeks or so. Seeing any Turkey up there?
Oh yeah, my deer is all cut up and in the freezer. Almost lost a 121. Dad was helping me and kept going on about how nice and light and sharp the 121 he picked up and began using was.![]()
So thats what we cut with the Bucks yesterday. I slipped the 105 in on him when he wasn't looking and then a while later noticed he was back to the 121. Don't know if it was a preference or he just didn't realize he was using two different knives. The wider blade 470's were laying there but didn't get used. Prior to the 121's and 105, the 470 would be in use.
Did notice mom using a 471 this morning trimming out a ham for breakfast. Told me we had some ham and could have ham and eggs if we had some eggs.![]()

Jeff, you should have been at London this am. Is 29 out here and beautiful. Sun just peeked out. Some reported snow flakes at 7am this morning. I should have been out there but giving it a rest till we come back in Dec.
Gotta go get setup and run the deer trimmins through the grinder for hamburger. Catch yall later..
