As most are aware, my beloved JRT Sarge had to be euthanized last fall. I was dogless until about Christmas, had said I wasn’t getting another, but I couldn’t stand it. I got Molly from a guy on Texas Bowhunter who has a great reputation for breeding JRTs. She’s been a hard headed little cuss...

My bench that I hand made with three hundred dollar bills !😜 After looking at it I decided I could not save much money if I built one myself, and probably wouldn’t do as good a job. I did unload it with my forks and set it on the blocks though. 😬

Between midnite and 8:00 am this morning. My crops are gonna mildew !😖

We have had record flooding in what we call “Deep East Texas” which is S of Lufkin to Houston. Record water release from Lake Livingston, the Trinity River as well as the Neches River have flooded US 59 below Livingston. It is clear now, but yesterday morning it was closed. This is a major...

You do good work Sir !

Raining like a cow whizzing on a flat rock here, right now ! We are the blue pin. I don’t mind the rain, although at this point it will all run off. What I do mind is these little red boxes that indicate tornado warnings !

People don’t expect weathermen to be right, at least I don’t. What good is a seven day forecast if they change it the second day ? We were supposed to get rain today but it all went N of us, but it took the tornado activity with it so I didn’t mind much. I planted three plots yesterday and the...

I have been planting food plots yesterday and today with the help of my best friend and hunting partner. We planted two on our lease and one at my place. This was done the conventional way, spray, wait, disc, plant and fertilize, and drag. I hope to transition to the plant, fertilize, and crimp...

Good for you ! We got a good rain last night too, but I haven’t checked the gauge yet. I’m a little under the weather with a head cold, sinus infection, or both.

I’ll bet he was glad he was wearing his brown pants !😝 I never came that close but I did have a bobcat get within twenty feet of me once when calling coyotes. They are sneaky ! I didn’t get that one, but thank God for the happy accident that let me be born in a state where we don’t have to...

I do both. I usually have a feeder at the end or side of my food plots. There is no doubt that the food plot is the biggest draw because I only throw 5/6 seconds both morning and evening. I pen my feeders with 8 hog panels where the hogs don’t homestead. They still come around, and I still shoot...

You can probably get all the info you need to skin and prep a deer from YouTube videos. I know Growing Deer TV put one out and I’m sure there are more. As far as methods of hunting deer, that’s gonna be fairly specific to your land and your geography. There are lots of “how to” articles in...

Patience is not my long suit Grizzz, but I’ll check for signs of germination in a couple weeks. Jack, I don’t think I’ll have any predation, that plot was thick ! It’s probably right up there with the best plots I’ve ever grown. If the hogs find it, that may be another story. Their sense of...

A couple of pics of the crimping caught with my Moultrie Edge camera.

The last good rain we had, a couple weeks ago, was nine inches in two days. It was a pond filler. A desert, it is not ! But wait……we were predicted a good rain Tuesday last, and not even a sprinkle. Supposed to rain a couple inches Saturday, but I’ll believe it when I see it. They get it wrong...
