Congratulations on your first deer kill. That's a nice deer and the eats should be pretty good. Thanks for sharing. TJ

That is one he!! of a job. You show pride in yourself and your tribe. I like the idea of what you have done with the traditional equipment. You have to be proud of what you have accomplished. Maybe our paths will meet someday and I can personally congratulate you on your success of your pig. What's next? Congratulations. TJ

Them are some big pigs for sure. Congratulations and thanks for sharing. TJ

Hard to say TJ.... but I saw turkeys where I have not seen them in years past.... Thanks Gino! I'm really looking forward to the spring hunt. TJ

Looks like you pulled another good year off Gino. Congratulations to everyone on their success. Great stories and pictures as always. Good luck with the lion. Gino, what's your opinion on the turkey survival this year with all the snow? Do you think there will be a huge kill off or just the norm? Thanks for sharing all the success. TJ

Looks like a good dayn to me. TJ

nitemann, congratulation on yout pig. That's a great picture. Can't get enough of these pigs. TJ

It is a must read book for sure. I started reading it all over again and I'm enjoying it as much as the first time around. Peg and I had the pleasure of joining Bill for lunch, in Greer last year, while we were camping at Big Lake. We then got to hear more stories and got to see many pictures in books that he has written or co-written. It was the highlite of our annual trip to the area. It makes the book even more enjoyable the second time around by knowing Bill. I recommend "Sixty Years A Hunter" to anyone who loves to hunt and especially if you're going to make a trip to Africa. TJ

Thanks for sharing Amanda. Sounds like you're having a good time. Some awesome bucks for sure. TJ

you know I'm just kidding! TJ

Casey, you did say english bulldog right? What do they hunt? Am I missing something? Did you get married and not let us know? You are still putting your pants on yourself right? TJ Casey......................jut kidding!

I haven't won one of these quess the score contest yet so take it for what it's worth but i think it pushes 100". Really nice buck! I hope you get him. TJ

Thanks for sharing your experience and it certainly sounded like a great hunt down there. I don't think I will ever make south of the border but I sure enjoy reading stories like your own and dream what it might be like. TJ

Thanks for sharing your experiences wth us. Some of your setups look a little close to the water and should be concelled a little more in my opion. Good luck next year. TJ

I always thought that plucking them would make them taste better with the skin left on so I would take the time to pluck all the turkeys shot in my camp. Now I skin all my turkeys and I don't taste any difference. Lately we have been deboning the meat and cooking it into pop pies. Beer can turkey on the grill injected with marinade is also one of my favorites. Plucking a turkey is a pain. Although quail and dove are easy to pluck and I always leave the skin on them. Have fun! TJ

Tony, meeting Sasha last year at the cwt.com outing makes this hurt even more for Peg and I but not what you and Ellen are going through of course. I called Peg from work this morning as soon as I read this. We both feel so sorry for your loss and we will keep you both in our thoughts and prayers. I have some pictures of Sasha playing with Lexie and we will cherish those forever. TJ

You all are being to hard on Gino. It's only been 1 day past Jan and you all expect him to post up with all the pics and stories, in one day, that he has to share? If he ain't posted by tomorrow then he is open game for short and long range shooters. TJ

Thanks for the reports. Looks like I won't get up that way for another month. Don't catch all the crappies. Good luck to all you fishermen and gals. Keep them reports coming along with some pitures. TJ

I never get tired of looking at the views you have Scott. Doesn't get much better than that to wake up to. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Thoughts and prayers for family and friends. TJ

I would use some corn as Clay suggested but beware it will bring squirrels and every bird around. The alfalfa is a great idea but only put out a small portion at a time. If you put a whole bail out they will eat the whole thing at one setting. Keep the rest covered with a tarp and the smell will keep them coming. Good luck and enjoy! TJ

Doug, I really don't know what to say but you are the best. Beautiful! TJ

So what part of Steve's story did I miss? TJ

92" exactly! I think I got it won this time. TJ

What a great write up and the trail pics are some of the best I've seen. How awesome is that to have the pics and antlers of the buck you shot. Having hunting partners the likes of Scott, Trent, and Austin is without doubt a treasure in itself. After the bout you had with the surgery, all the good you do for everyone, you certainly deserved to have such a great hunt. Thanks for sharing with all of us. TJ
