My nephew will get brought up on a recruiting board here in the coming years. He is being recruited by everyone in the country from the bottom (aggie) to top ivy league schools. He is being thorough and is visiting the shit out of every school that will have him. It is an experience he wants to enjoy. Yall don't get it and I don't get it but it is par for the course. I send his mom every NIL deal Texas has, but he still wants to play the game. Chill.

FIL was tired of MILs shit and went back out Thursday. I got this pic yesterday morning. CWD zone so he went to check station, biologists said it was 6-7 yr old and on the back slide. Still cool to see deer that old around here. I high tailed it up to try and catch the 10 he saw 15 min after shooting this old guy. We will see, maybe I can get lucky? Doesn't matter, at deer camp.

I sure didn't. Had an expected event occur that altered our entire Thanksgiving weekend. My old man was up there Thanksgiving day and said he saw a few new faces and a little tussle between two youngins one evening, but nothing too hot and heavy. I'm out again this weekend, but will be there come hell of high water the weekend of the 11th. Hoping we don't miss the peak of the rut. I have a ton of craziness at work, plus building my house plus some stuff going on with family. Ranch time has been minimal and sorely missed. Send pics if you make it out there!
I am going out this weekend with my FIL. He went out yesterday for some reason (bored I guess) and said basically what I said up thread. Not going crazy yet, little bucks messing around but nothing else.

@Spaulding Smails did you go up this past weekend? Was the rut in full swing on your place if so? I left thursday and it seemed it was just popping off. None of the bigger deer were going crazy. I am thinking this weekend i need to slip out to try my luck.

I made fun of my wife for watching this cheesy Sci fi show. I don't read no good no how so I didn't know anything about this deal. I watched episode 4 and I might be hooked. Went back and watched the first 3 tonight. Hell of an episode #4 was. Glad I tuned in.
I am more into the story than how they did a shit job of cinematography.

Yeah. I don’t understand any of the stuff involved. I was just thinking the other day I need to get at min a .30 and .22 lined up. One of the lease mates was showing me all his IR/NV shit he recently bought. And new suppressed something or other. I’m over here buying up mint pre-64’s and old superposed(s) and falling far behind the (literal) arms race.
Ain't nothing wrong with that. Ask here or Google it. Suppressors are the answer to a whole host of stuff. Especially momma talking about hearing loss in her babies. I got a whole host of shit for letting him shoot that deer. Trust me this was way off schedule. I will pay for this one way or the other. Everyone is cool for now. Haha
Just now, Herbie Hancock said:I can’t wait for that day and neither can my dad. My kids are 2.5 and he’s already given me his granddads .22 for my boy and bought matching .243’s for both. My daughter surprisingly has come and sat with me behind the house a couple times. My boy can’t grasp the concept of quiet just yet, and he would rather be eating snacks and watching bluey anyways. Soon. Very soon.
Mine went form not caring to 11 real quick. My oldest is pissed his little bro beat him to the punch. I told him to come out with me tonight and he can shoot something but he skipped. Video games are better for him.

I put her behind a 556 this weekend for the first time (at range). The recoil was fine, that sort of percussive blast you get from the wrong brake didn’t jibe tho. Hell I’m a grown ass man (almost) and I still don’t like it. Might build her one with a long barrel and let the gas do it’s thing. Will have to look into a 300BO. At first glance the bolt action appears to mimic the same recoil as a .243 with light pills, or a lightly loaded 30-30 for that matter. I can tell you now she can’t handle either of those in non SA form. I keep this close because I think it’s cool to look at everything
http://www.chuckhawks.com/recoil_table.htmBite the bit and get a suppressor. It solves a whole host of issues for kids. The boom stick isn't needed anymore. There is a better way. 😄

That is what it is all about. Awesome! That is a cool first buck. Better than mine.
He sat 5 times but tapped out tonight. His momma came up this afternoon to take him home tomorrow. He went out this morning and it was cold with no action. I think I broke him. Haha. Either way he told me this was the best time he had ever. Proud dad for sure. I was worried we wouldn't have a soldier to take over this place when we are gone. No Mas. He will handle it.

He started bb gun last year. Started letting him shoot the 10-22 this spring into summer. I asked if he wanted to try shooting my 308. It is a heavy barrel suppressed rig that weighs a ton so there is next to no recoil. He shot a few rounds at our range and liked it. That is what he shot the deer with. Sat it on the window so it was balanced with the bipod outside the window acting as a catch if you will. Worked perfectly.
He is the size of my 10 yr old. So he isn't your normal 7yr old. He is a big dude for his age.

No.
Wrong sport for this topic anyways. I was just trying to point out that kids will take their visits and soak it up. Fan(atics) should just take it down a notch and let it play out on these FB recruits. HWH and others have laid the runway for them to land on, they will land.
I will stfu donny....
