Hard to find a 200 yd shot in East Texas. So many trees.And think about how wide that group would be at 200 yards.
Of the few deer I have killed averagedistance would be 20 yards. Killed a 8 point at about 10 yards or less.Hard to find a 200 yd shot in East Texas. So many trees.
Or if you have big enough guns.100,200,300.....aint nothin to it if they arent running too fast...
My Dad had me using a 12 gauge shotgun shooting plugs when I grew up there in Daingerfield. Shots were always pretty close in that area.Of the few deer I have killed averagedistance would be 20 yards. Killed a 8 point at about 10 yards or less.
In some of the pine thickets all you see is the feet, lsy still and hope for a shot through a small hole in plne needles.My Dad had me using a 12 gauge shotgun shooting plugs when I grew up there in Daingerfield. Shots were always pretty close in that area.
I didn't shoot my first deer rifle until after I left the house.
Seems like I read this on this boardlooks like the old adage is if you lose early its better than losing late, ALL the teams ahead of Texas will lose at least one, some will lose twice, IMO Alabama runs the table and so does Texas and thats THE REMATCH
that remind me of when my friend who was a TP&W biologist took me on an East Texas turkey hunt, he told me you will hear them but won't see him till the last minute, it was very exciting, unlike hunting Rio Grandes in CenTex where you see them coming a football field awayIn some of the pine thickets all you see is the feet, lsy still and hope for a shot through a small hole in plne needles.
It will be announced next Monday.Anyone with more knowledge than me have a best guess at what time the K-State game will be? I have tickets but will have to drive in from Houston with 3 kids. Would love for it not to be at 11am...
Take a good look SHA....because you wont get the chance to see him again after the season starts. I think it is a rule or something like that....
