How many of you guys know the EXACT,
critter you're going to try to smack
in the next few month's ???

Have been scouting, watching, waiting, giving others
evil looks, parking covertly ect., ect., ect...........

Without specific's, for obvious National Security issues,
would love to hear your go-to plan...........

Without others knowing, of course.........

THE ONLY bobcat THAT KNOWS ALOT OF YOU HAVE HAD THIS IMAGE IN YOUR PEA BRAIN BUT DUE TO POOR SHOOTING TACTICS I'M STILL KICKIN!!!
 
Sorry Ive,
this question requires, complex analitical thinking, something I'm not capable of. :)
 
Larry, that's a legitimate question. The evil, steep and thick crap we hunt in doesn't lend it self to stalking 1 particular critter. So what generally happens is we sort of set a standard like 4X4 at least 22?? or so. Then depending on how bad we want some jerky on the last day the standard goes down the toilet. I'm trying a new tactic this year. I have a trail cam on a salt lick but even the stupid mustangs are avoiding it for some reason so it's back to plan A. Most likely we'll go out and have a great time as usual and beg TripleK for some BessHog bacon to see us through the long winter.

What do you guys do in Texas?

Rus,

From everything I've read, we get drunk, set by corn feeders,
shoot at everything that moves, ride around in pickups with
our guns hanging out the windows, spit tobacco juice, talk
real slow, fart, set in heated blinds, set in air conditioned
blinds, ect. ect.

I do fart on occasion. And I've been known to get drunk around
a campfire of good friends. But snuff makes me puke.

Rus, I like to watch bachlor groups of bucks during the summer
at a long distance to kinda see what's going on. It's been
tough this year, cause we've had so much rain they're pretty
holed up. Thats good and bad. After that, I like to try to
set up in a tree stand with a bow and catch'em still in their
summer haze. On dry years setting water around here can be
really good, but few do it. Toward the last part of bow season,
going into the first of rifle, I like to rattle the horns.
It can be frustrating at times, but when they're liking it,
it's a heck of alot of fun. After that, you're talking rifles
and rut around here. Alot of what we mess with is REAL open
country. We try to set up where we can view some country and
glass, and if you'll spend enough time doing that, you'll
finally catch something tending a doe. From there it's either
shoot, or sneak and crawl 'til you can, which is fun. We carry
homemade crossed shooting sticks made out of dowel rod, with
16 penny nails coming out the bottom for support. When the
Blue Stem's tall enough, you can do some sneaking. Get alot of
cow crap and cactus on ya, and in ya, but it's worth it.
Can't wait.
fyi

Coues deer hunting does lend itself to being able to find bucks several times over a period of years. I have two bucks in mind that were decent last year. If they've made it through and have grown significantly since last year, I'm gonna let fly. Otherwise, I'll be lookin.
 
Ive, You seem to have the description of us Texans down pat. Are you sure we haven't shared a campfire together. Sounds like you run with the same bunch of Rednecks I do.

Larry, Sounds good to me. I'm trying to put together a "do you like where you live" post but I can't find the photo's I want. My wife hides the good ones. Anyway, if you want to hunt Utah, call me, I'm quite well known. We have similar tactics. Here is me in the o'le double wide.

Post Script: Larry you're one of the good ones I was telling another MM'er about today.

TK,

I've never shared a campfire with you, but I'd
damned sure like to. I'm a central TX redneck myself,
and I'm sure looking forward to Nov. for reasons you
and I both know about. Should be a hell of a year.

Rus,

You too are one of the good guys. I appreciate your kind
words, and would love to share a campfire with you as well.

I might get drunk when we do it, but I damned sure won't
dip any snuff. And I promise I won't hang the barrel out the
window if we go for a ride.

Can't promise anything about the farting, however.

Thanks Boy's,

Larry
 
Irv, I can see the one I want in my mind. Does that count?:)

Blacktails have a pretty small home range so it's not uncommon to hunt a certain buck all season. That doesn't mean you can find him though. They are experts at hiding. I don't have one picked out for this year. Unless you count the nice three pointer (western count) I saw over the 4th of July. I'll be checking his home turf on a regular basis.
