Scouting For Wild Turkeys

Two hours before sunset I parked my truck in a clump of cedars and walked to my vantage point on the hill, high above a 300 acre grain field, split in half by the winding Leon River. I saw movement along the river. Turkeys, 4 of them, and they were going the right way. I hopped in my truck and rushed over to Rick's Hot Turkey Stand at the bend in the river. A gobbler and 3 hens were already in view. They crossed the corner of the field and ducked under the fence at exactly the same place I saw the wild turkeys yesterday. Here's a pic of the gobbler puffing up for the hens. Enjoy it as wallpaper, if you like: (640x480) (800x600) (1024x768).

In Memory Of Ralph Gorsuch - Ralph died of cancer last Sunday. At his funeral his friends and hunting buddies lined up and put an arrow into an empty quiver in memory and as a memorial to Ralph. They filled several quivers with over two hundred arrows. Some even arrived by UPS. Ralph was a friend, a teacher and an archery technician for hundreds of archers and bowhunters. Ralph Gorsuch leaves a lot of friends behind. And we will miss him.

LATE SEASON BOWHUNT- STEVE BARTYLLA 
The temperature was sub zero, the snow was deep, perfect weather for Steve's last bowhunt of the season.
Oh Good Grief, That's My Archery Target!
Sheeze-a-pete, this morning, while I was making more coffee, I glanced out of the kitchen window and a cow and a calf were sure as the dickens eating my archery target. I wanted to break their necks, but instead I grabbed my camera and took their picture. When I looked at the pict I just had to put it up as a wallpaper as kind of a "woes of being a bowhunter" thing. You might not want to have it as your wallpaper like I do right now, but I think you'll get a kick out of the bigger picture. (640x480) (800x600) (1024x768

ONLINE BOWHUNT: About Rancho del Zorro
Every hunting operation is different. It's a mixture of the people who run the hunt, the guides, the food, the individuals who are there to hunt, the kind of game the hunters see, and what hapens when they hunt. Rancho del Zorro is a solid "10" on a scale of "10". For starters, it definitely has the game. There are lots of deer, half of them are bucks, and a bunch of those bucks are mature, record book class trophys.

ONLINE BOWHUNT: Wild Hogs & Javelina At Rancho del Zorro: Day 1-3
Javelina were in the road, about 80 yards from the Curve blind and 200 yards from us. Chad stopped and turned off the pickup's engine. He took their picture as I grabbed my bow. An old, rusty fence is to the right, along the side of the road, so I slipped over to it and stepped over a low place in the wire. Brush and mesquite grow along much of the fence. They provided good cover so I walked briskly for half the distance, but then the cover ran out. More...
