    Cool find at deer camp

    My buddy Thowin’ Darts bought a ranch in Young County this spring.

    After the mirning hunt, we found an old well behind one of the feeder pens. It’s probably 25’ deep. When we shined a light down it, we were surprised to see a rat snake laying on top of a dead hog....Guess they both fell down recently.

    At some point we want to go back with a meta detector. We’re hoping there’s an old homestead nearby.

        I’d definitely look at making a cover for that. It’s amazing how many hand dug wells are out there. Some of them still provide good water sources today.

          I second covering it, and preserve it.
          It looks old, so maybe do a little research and try to find out the history of the property.

              That is pretty cool. Would bet good money that there is an old home place near.

              I would also try to fish that hog out.

                I don’t see how we could get it out. Yuck!

                      I was picturing something along the lines of a hayhook tied to the end of a rope.

                        Fish that hog out of there and cover it up to preserve the freshness of the water...

                          Dump a couple of bags of lime down on it.

                            Dude, I’d watch out if I were you. Put a camera out there and see what you get.

                              Could you imagine walking to your stand and taking a little fall?
