Remember when you were a kid and you played hide-and-seek and you had a home base? This was the place where when you got there nobody could get you and you were safe, well hunting hogs in Jack county is my home base. I've spent the better part of a month driving from one border to the next chasing critters and even though I love it its nice to go to home base and be safe. As every good weekend should this one started with high school football, but Graham seemed to have it under control so at …

Mertzon Day 2
Morning always comes too early no matter what time you get to sleep but we got up and went at it. Everybody was going back to their same spots as the evening before, but the fog was so thick it didn't matter where you were because you couldn't see 50 yards until 8 o'clock. Finally the sun started to cut through and immediately I started seeing deer. One buck after another started filing through but of course we were hunting does so as cool as it was to see it wasn't helping the cause any. I …
Mertzon, Tx Day 1
This is a short trip to Mertzon, its south of home almost 300 miles. I got the call Friday noon to go shoot some does off of managed deer land where the deer are near or over capacity.

When we got in camp we were the last ones in and bets had been made on wether I would really show, seems no one thought that a guy …
Montana Random Pics
Apparently drugs are bad in some of the small towns and on the reservations, there were signs like this in several places. A nice buck at the end of the corn field I hunted one morning before daylight. Lucky for him he didn't show in hunting hours. The boys bear hugging a bear. Big spurs on this bird, they are kinda like little turkeys. Sign in box for block management land, just fill out a little card and place it in the box and your good to go for a day on thousands of …
Montana Day 9
We got up late and drank coffee, it was nice not getting up before the sun and layering on clothes and preparing for miles of walking. The boys wanted to go shoot today so what better than the Halloween pumpkins. Armed with all calibers of guns we waged war on innocent jacko lanterns, and we won, all of the enemies were left in pieces when the boys got done. We walked the edge of the field trying to jump a pheasant and Bo got one bird. I figured we better go have some lunch so we went to a cafe …
