I've been blessed this fall.

It's been a 9 point kind'a season.

Two South Georgia 9 pointers on opening day of rifle season on October 19th.

Then, another good 9 pointer on Missouri's rifle opener on Nov 16th.

… my hero

It's been a good one!

Sometimes a blind hog will find more than one acorn.

Way to get it done Swamp!...Got some doe meat in the freezer, and hunting a particular buck for the last 2 seasons.

Don't know if he or me will die of old age first, Lol.

… good for you uncle Swamp … got a couple here but buck was small

… youngest boy got a biggin

Very nice.Congrats

Way to go, you ole warden.

There a few of us old GWs that know how to hunt, fish, trap.

Most of these newbie GWs are not woodsmen by any stretch of the imagination....unfortunately.

Dang !! Great deer !
Gonna have to start calling you the 9 point pistolero !!

Incredibly blessed and a little luck thrown in to have such fine specimens walk within range of the 7mm-08.

Stay tuned.

Sometime soon (in December) I'm gonna let the air outta a few does using the Mathews Triax, Black Eagle arrows, and Wasp JakHammers.

Also gonna punch thru some hogs with the thermal scoped .300 BO.

I love that challenge.....single out one deer...

This buck (I call Pinchers) is 6.5 years old and blind in his left eye. I have some history with him. I hunted him relatively hard when he was 3.5 as he met my "shooter" minimums. The big block of riverbottom timber where he resided was clearcut the following summer. He left. Never got any pics of him at 4.5 yrs old...thought he was dead. But, last year he returned to my place and spent most of his time on the sand ridges above the now clearcut bottom. This past August I got lots of pics of him in velvet, but by Labor Day...he disappeared....never got a pic of him hard-antlered this fall...UNTIL this evening. He appeared at a feeder minutes after legal shooting light ended. He has been a loner ever since I started getting pics of him at 3.5. He is never with other bucks...not even during summer. Always arrives to feed alone. Leaves if another buck appears.

Next fall he will be 7.5 years old. If he lives....he is my #1 target.

Nice deer, Swamp!
You been up hunting with Clay?

…. I hope pinchers gets shot on the fence line by a pigeon toed redneck that works an entry level job at the county lol

Yes...the Missouri buck was compliments of Clay.

That redneck better tighten up. Pinchers has avoided him for 6.5 years so far.

… be glad I ain’t your neighbor… I’d have killed pinchers 5 years ago lol

Nice!

I figured as much. If you wanted to kill most anything in north Missouri Clay would be the man to see!

Probably.

But, you'd have had to be sure which side of the fence you and Pinchers were on. I still had a badge and a gun...and a black 4x4 truck with blue strobing lights five years ago. And I had better knees so I could run u down and better hands so I could wrestle you down....lol

Lmao … good do see you’re enjoying retirement… trapping pics next
