Yesterday I saw our first mature (after 2 of them) chasing does around feeders on camera.

My nephew has had a rough year after a major car crash and a few surgeries. He’s a great kid who loves to hunt. I had picked out an old 10 point for him that I had a few years of history with. Sure enough after I videoed him opening weekend of bow season he disappeared. I ended up finding him last week 1/2 a mile away from where he normally lives chasing a doe. He hasn’t hit a feeder since opener of bow season, so I figured I better find him another buck.
Yesterday afternoon i told him to go sit in my bow blind and shoot my target buck, a 7 year old 8 that’s really wide. I’d seen him 4 times this year and never could get him to come all the way into bow range. Sure enough I got the call right before dark that the buck came in and he popped him. Super proud of my nephew, and glad he was able to harvest such an old Hill Country buck after the kind of year he’s had. He measured 20 5/8” wide.

My dad and son hunted this weekend. I didn't get to go. Zach was out stalking this morning and got onto a big 10pt whitetail. Long story short.... It's hard to hit your mark when buck fever sets in.

Dad got his 2nd axis buck of the year yesterday evening.

Congratulations to your dad! Nice Axis.

Acorns are gone. Young deer hitting corn. Have not seen a mature anything in 5 days. Thinking about moving a camera To the orchard...........

Man our acorns aren't gone, the ground is littered with them everywhere and they are still falling. Hopefully this is the last of them, our feeder activity was way down this weekend.

In Richland Springs the ground is covered in acorns. There are still some falling and our deer couldn’t care less about corn. Been here 14 years and never seen this many acorns or lack of interest in corn.

Our deer activity it also extremely slow but we're giving it a go again this weekend.
