    Hope y'all do good out there. There's plenty deer, mighty skittish though.

    If y'all see my green z71 around town, say howdy.

          That's pretty impressive to hunt all the way back there; have always contemplated hunting back there. It's what easily a 30 minute drive just from the gate and another 15 minute walk.
          Not saying I'm lazy, but it would just be difficult for me to get off work and make it out there in time to do any good, but I guess like you were saying you see him every weekend so it must be a weekend only spot.
          Which is pretty sh itty, if you think about going through all that trouble to get way off the map and him doing the same. Then he turns around and steals your equipment.

          Any monsters lurking back in there?

              I may have met you a few days ago heading out of V the other night. I was in the white SUV and then stopped to chat with you. There only other person I seen out there that I don't know was in the creek bed near the hwy...he had a urine bag hanging off the tree. He was camo'd up real nice but I was using glass and spotted him...unfortunately I had to walk by him to get to my area. He said it was his first time out there.

              I'm guessing your the guy with the blind that's all wired up. I haven't seen it personally but one of the guys I work with described it to me. Cheers!
              Yankee,
              I think that was my buddy another TBH member down in the creekbed with the urine bag. Me and him have both hunted that spot. I think i may have been sitting there one morning when you walked by also. There were 2 people that were hunting together i guess one a taller guy and a shorter one with him. I had another guy walk by me with a crossbow. He looked at me like 3 times and just walked right in front of me. I couldnt resist I spoke up and asked him if he had seen anything and about scared the crap outta him it was hilarious. That creekbed seems to be an area lot of people walk.

                  Yep that was me...shorter one. FYI, you did make the other guy sh it his pants...we talked about it. I texted him and said you were set-up there but he ended up losing his phone, the rest is history. He just shot a 7 point on Friday right near my spot...I told him he owes me half a deer. Good luck out there seems like a promising spot...if you can deal with the traffic.

                            Don't mean to be so forward; but which vehicle is yours and your buddies (ONLY reason I'm asking is this: if I know it's yours, I won't go on a walk and just go to my spot BUT if I know it's some others vehicle I don't mind doing a walk-about)

                            Glad you are seeing some bucks; they are pretty nocturnal in my neck of the woods....

                            Your not alone though, there are about 3 of us (TBHers) in the same neighbor, so if you need help tracking or anything else at all feel free to hit me up 325-374-0811
                            JD,
                            I have been out there some with my buddy buxNdux and will be out near 4 and 5 this weekend and next week some. I drive a silver/grey 4 door GMC 3/4 ton. BuxNdux maybe out that next weekend. Nice to see some respectful and courteous people out there. Holler if you need help tracking or anything out there while I am there. 325-207-7685

I wouldn't really waste my time around there. Go down the road to Unit 6 and go way back as far as you can reach or Unit 4 if you are on that side of the lake. Unit 1 is great but w/o someone to show you how to get into it and where to head once in there....you'll never find it.
                              we own a ranch in that middle concho park area, there are very good deer genetics down there, if you havent heard of the airport buck, 186BC, that was poached a few years ago, it was sighted a couple times in that spillway, and another deer was shot off our ranch that scored 150, only thing that is a downer is that public land down in that area is crowded and is a heavy traffic area
