SOUTH TEXAS HUNTING LEASE

[45MAN]

LAST WEEK MY BUDDY JAIME's BROTHER IN LAW RICK TOOK THIS 342lb COW NILGAI @ 286 YARDS USING JAIME's 300 WEATHERBY MAG AND 180gr NOSLER PARTITIONS, HELL'uva COW NILGAI AND HELL'uva SHOT (BASE OF THE NECK AND DOWN).

2/2/24 (TODAY), 2:00 P.M., 83 DEGREES, AND A 200 HORNADY FLEX TIP FROM MY MARLIN 35 REMINGTON INTERRUPTED THIS SUB 100lb BOARS's MUD BATH, HIGH LEGS/LOW SHOULDER SHOT AND A FINISHER WITH A BRAD SHERMAN 5 SHOT NIMRODESQUE BISLEY 45 COLT AND A 320gr BLUE BULLET @ 1,244fps. 

LATER IN THE AFTERNOON WE WENT OVER TO THE Zorillo PASTURE (A FAMILY PASTURE) THAT THEY OPENED UP FOR THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY FOR HOG HUNTING, WE WERE THE FIRST LESSEES IN THERE, DID NOT SEE PIG 1, WILL TRY AGAIN IN THE MORNING.

Don’t get stuck in the mud, lots of rain in the area. Good luck

I love it when you guys tell stories about punta del monte, you always have big smiles on your faces, plus it sounds like a fruit farm.... nice big nilgai cow, yippee!

CAME TO PDM YESTERDAY (2/7/24) WITH MY BUDDY DENVER AND AT 4:00 P.M., 81 DEGREES, OUT IN THE OPEN, WE FIND A SOUNDER OF ABOUT 10-12 MEDIUM HOGS AND AT AT LEAST 200YARDS DENVER SHOOTS WITH HIS T/C COMPASS 6.5 CREEDMOOR RIFLE, WINCHESTER 125gr AMMO, AND KILLS A NICE, EATABLE, BOAR. A FRIEND OF DENVER's HAD MADE A KNIFE AND ASKED DENVER TO TRY IT OUT, SO DENVER FIELD DRESSED THE PIG (BTW: DENVER KNOWS HOW TO FIELD DRESS, WAS OBVIOUS HE HAD DONE IT MANY, MANY TIMES).

AT MY Lenaderos DEER LEASE FOR SUPER BOWL WATCH THIS P.M. AND QUAIL & CHUKAR HUNT TOMORROW, SO KILLING TIME AT THE Lenaderos Lease SHOOTING RANGE THIS MORNING (2/11/24), INCLUDING CHECKING ZERO ON THIS SAVAGE 99 IN 22 SAVAGE HIGH POWER, IT WAS ON AT 100yds. HOPE TO USE THIS OLD WARHORSE ON A SPIKE BUCK AT PDM LATER THIS WEEK USING S&B 70gr FACTORY AMMO. THIS GUN/AMMO WORKED GOOD ON A LARGE BOAR HOG @ 135yds OR SO I AM FIGURING IT WILL BE OK ON A YEARLING SPIKE.

Very “old school cool”, looking forward to performance pics of the gun and caliber.

Wine and tamales?  Well, I've clearly been hunting quail wrong my entire life..

[Ken O'Neill]

Rey knows how to do things right.

[brant]

One of my wife’s favorite meals! She wants Pinot Noir and her tamales spicey!

[Fowler]

But how is the quail hunting this year? do tell...
