RE: OK hunting
I just posted the stuff belowto another thread and I didnt realize it was you. oops
I had fun at Lexington during dove season, but deer season was a waste of time. Where have you been hunting? You should take a trip out to Altus Lugert and hunt the south section below Highway 9 for coyotes and bobcats. There are a ton of them, I actually found an entire deer carcas that I had seen 2 weeks earlier drug back into a little cove that was riddled with other bones and feathers. Its probably 1/4 mile back into some thick trees and hills. There must be a big gang of them to move the carcass that far.
If you do go out there make sure it isnt after a hard rain. I didnt realize how much rain fell down there and I got stuck up to my axels on sunday. Luckly a farmer saw me trying to dig out with my window scraper and he got his tractor to get me out. Next time ill just walk in.
I hunt public land. I didnt do any good this year but I had a blast. I had a buck ten yards to my left while I was in my ground blind. Talk about getting the blood pumping. Unfortunately I wasnt paying attention, Oh well ill be after him again next year.
Did you do any good on public land this year? I spent alot of time out at Altus-Lugert. There are some good deer there but they are extremely hard to pattern. Once I got it figured out they changed it all up on me. Although I did find out that Altus Lugert is getting overrun with coyotes and bobcats. I went out sunday after alot of rain and there were tracks everywhere...and I mean everywhere. I may have to plan another trip in the next few weeks for a predator hunt.
