2019/2020 east Texas hunting thread..




Got a good 4.5 in the pipeline [emoji1303]

Another pretty good looking buck rolled thru this morning

I'm hoping this guy made it through the season at my place in Newton Co. The one day I was hunting in a different area he broke day light twice in one day. I also had this guy come in During early December chasing a doe that I know is still around for this year.

Yeah I’m pulling cards Saturday. Hopefully I have a few good ones on camera. Some of the tracks on my place are so big I couldn’t tell if it was deer or horses

Keep us posted. Hands down be in the stand on October 20-24 any of those days usually gets hit with the first major cold front. The group I hunt with we always make sure to stay up in the tree along pinch points and funnels. That weekend and first weekend of rifle season get heated. The other weekend/ week is Thanksgiving. We try whatever we can to be in the stands during those time frames based off of previous years experience from the area.

Will do. How much does moon phase seem to effect the deer over there IYE? Hunting the DCNF it seems like those deer respond pretty positively to new and full moons regardless of weather.

Newton co is sleeper for some big deer. We are year 2 on a big Sabine River lease that was shot out. Low numbers but great genetics.

Yeah that’s what I’m getting from it. Lease holder has some pictures of a couple nice bucks and one big one from previous year(s). Hoping a few more turn up.

I'll echo the last week of october and opening weekend of rifle season is one of best times to be in the stand in newton county. There are alot of good deer killed in Newton co but you gotta put your time in for sure if you are a bowhunter.

3 soil samples mailed in today. I’m hoping to hold “wonder bra” off neighbors will every advantage I have.

Idk if this is a direct correlation or not but when the moon is full we get a lot of movement around mid day to 3P.M. Here's a buck that appeared at on of my stands on one of the dates I told you about and with a full moon. He was after a doe. My FIL shot the one below around 3 p.m on a full moon after Thanksgiving day at our place. The last one on the bottom was also shot by a buddy of mines years ago on a full moon day around 3:30 P.M. First weekend of rifle season chasing does.

Holy cow. I don’t care what the science says, I’ve seen the most big buck movement in full moon days. Anecdotal yes, however it is a prevalent pattern no matter where I’ve hunted.
