Bow Season update

Bow season is in full swing. Most of my hunters have had success. Our older bucks have peeled away from the younger bucks. My guess is one more cold front and we will see the front end of the rut starting, which is unusual and early, but mother nature and her weather drive that activity. It is a welcome sight. I have plenty of animals and stands. Check my website for pricing. Call to book a hunt.



Axis will be available by the end of the year. I'll have prices out by mid December. I should have 20 plus trophy axis bucks beyond 30 inches. Plenty of axis doe and  24 Elk and some Fallow.

Bow Season is upon us

I have a couple spots open for this next Saturday, opening day.  My hunters will not be disappointed with the effort I have put into this. 8,000 lbs of corn down 14 stands 9 feeders. I am loaded with deer and pigs.  Come and get it.

Bob

Day bow and rifle hunts

I now have 10 feeders up and running with 10 bow stands on them on one ranch. Five of those also have box blinds on them. I also have 5 stands on another large ranch that are hand fed each day. If you don't have a lease or are just getting into bow hunting, give me a try. My success is your success. The only ways you wont get a shot are if you get busted or miss, because I have the animals.

Bob

Deer and Hogs

Bow season is close. My stands are up, and I am feeding. All you have to do is show up and hunt. I take care of the rest. From stands to corn, to finding your kill, and cleaning it. $50 sit fee kill or no kill. Kill fee on doe is $200. Bucks start at $400 and go up. I also have axis doe available by bow or rifle by December. Axis doe $400.  I have pigs available year round. However its a bit more pleasant to hunt them in the cooler temps. I need a few days notice on pig hunts. Watch my blog for updates on dove and ducks.

Dove report

Opening two days of dove season in Bastrop county were some what slow. My hunters all took birds, but very few limits. I have heard of a few spotty limits being taken in central and northern parts of the county from our local game warden Drew Alexander. With each day the birds become more scarce, and this trend will continue until we have several good cold fronts. I am farming day hunts out to a friend in the San Marcus area as of today. He has good numbers for now.


Bob

2014/2015 Hunting season

Bow stands are up and I am now feeding. Season starts September 27th. Book it now

Doves   I had a ton of birds back in June. However we have had three somewhat powerful and freaky cold fronts in July and August. As of this post my birds are gone. That can all change with one big weather system. As soon as they show I will blog and facebook to get the word out.

I also offer evening rabbit hunts in December January and February.

Ducks.  Tons of grass in river. If mother nature will push the birds down duck season will be awesome.

Turkeys  Damn I have them Bastrop county is April only and a one gobbler county.  TPWD needs to change our bag limits.

Bass fishing  Colorado river. February thru May are the best months to catch real good quality on the river. Lots of 3-8 lb fish caught during these months.

If you want to hook it stick it or shoot it   I have it


Bob

Water and Woods

Colorado river fishing is good  Bass are stuck tocover in dead water  Riffles with rock can be productive with square bill crankbaits  in a yellow belly . Topwater bite is good as well. Beating the heat is the hard part.


Lake Bastrop fish are still schooling. They are finicky now. Really have to watch the size of shad they are on and match it.


Bow season starts September 27th   I offer day bow hunts for whitetail and axis doe. $50 sit fee  Plus kill fees on all animals  white tail doe $250   Axis doe $400.  My stands My corn. I put you in  I pick you up. I will also gut skin and quarter your kill. Pig hunts available year round. $100 to go $25 a pig  I will clean sow pigs under 150lbs.  Boar hogs and big sows  your own your own.

Wow

Getting married to the best woman in the world this Saturday. That explains the lack of my blogging.  I cant wait.

I am very excited about the upcoming dove and archery only season. I have several ranches loaded with game for this year. Dove season opens September 1, which is a Monday and Memorial day. As of this post I do have some open spots for opening day.The second weekend is booked full. I charge $40 a gun. You cant beat that price anywhere.

Bow season opens September 27. My stands My corn  I put you in  I pick you up  I help you find your kill and help you clean it if you like. $50 sit fee.  Kill fee on all animals. Doe are$250 and bucks start at $400 and go up.  Pigs are $50 a piece and lord I have them. I have three ranches that I will offer rifle hunts on for bucks only as this county has antler restrictions and doe can only be taken in the archery only season unless TPWD grants me some MLD tags for doe.

Deer---  Best fawn crop I have seen in 10 years. I have seen more twins than you can shake a stick at. Almost every mature doe has a little one with her

Fish---  Lake Bastrop bass are schooling hard and will continue as long as the hot weather and bait hold up.

Colorado River---  Most fisherman are struggling  Hot weather and  shallow water is tough unless you can cast to cover. I am still catching big numbers on top water and square bill crank baits with yellow bodies. This river trip is tons of fun. My river and lake trip half days are $300. I provide everything including water and cold fried chicken.

If you want to experience the outdoors I have it and can put you on it


Bob

2014/2015 deer season

Bow season will be here before you know it. Rumor has it the season will open September  27th this year. However TPWD wont publish anything until Aug 15th. I offer day bow and rifle hunts. Book your spot now. The first week will fill fast.


Bob

PS  I always have pigs for any of you pig hunters

Fish---- Deer----Pigs

Right now we are getting a good soaking rain. River will muddy and rise for sure   Channel cat will be on fire during the rise.

Lake Bastrop fish are schooling better everyday. They are a bit finicky on what they will eat, but I have the bait.

Axis---- Our axis will be ready to be harvested by bow or rifle by December at the latest

White tail--- Bow season is my favorite. Nothing like pulling them in stupid close for a good shot. Lord I have the animals.  Most of what I have is a meat hunt, but you cant beat my prices compared to anything else that has the success rate that my hunters have. Opening weekend will be booked  by August. So call now if you want a spot.


Pigs---  I got them thick. I feed them into two spots we sit in the brush and ambush them. Sometimes they ambush us. Makes for a real good time and damn good eating


Bob

Weather/fish/deer

Wow  We have not seen persistant rains like this in years. It will sustain plant growth for the deer which will give us better antler growth for this upcoming season. The rain and mild temps make it easier on our local nesting morning doves to hatch their babies and raise them.  Rain will muddy the river and make the catfishing excellent.

Lake Bastrop---   The schooling activity has started. It will continue to get better every day especially on sunny low wind days.  Call to book a trip.

Fish hard  Shoot straight

Bob

2014/2015 Deer season

I now have 3 really good ranches with excellent numbers of doe and some good antlers for the upcoming bow season. Two of those ranches I will have rifle hunts on when the general season opens, and I should have some MLD permits for doe. I can accommodate 20 hunters a day. Opening weekend is always full. So , if you want a spot, I am taking bookings now.  I give my hunters the best possible chance to harvest an animal. Your success is my success. I give my hunters 2-3 hours in the morning and the same in the evening. $50 sit fee kill or no kill per day. Kill fees on all animals including pigs. You will save a ton of money hunting with me rather than paying for a lease, fuel, corn, stands, food, and so on.


Axis will be ready to hunt by December. Our pricing on these animals has not been set yet. I will only have doe available this year.

Bob

2014/2015 deer season

Axis will be ready to hunt by end of year.

Bob

Pig Hunts Bastrop county

Pigs   I have them and they are thick. I feed them in on two different spots  I set you up in brush or blind depending on the wind. Then we whack em  Ill gut skin and quarter your kill . I will not clean big boar hogs as the meat is just nasty. $50 sit fee regardless of kill or not. $100 for first pig and $50 for every pig after the first one.  Tons of fun and damn good eating.


Bob

Pigs and Axis

If its pigs your after I have them. $100 for first pig and $50 for every pig after the first one.  I have them fed into two different spots. Most of my hunters take them with AR's or AK's , but with a little notice I can set up a bow shot. Its getting hotter and the pigs are moving later and later.

Axis,  I have a herd started on a big ranch in southern Bastrop county. Our doe are dropping first round of babies now. This herd will be ready to hunt by end of this year by bow or rifle. Contact me for pricing


Bob

Upcoming 2014/2015 deer season

For all you bow and rifle hunters, I now have 4 real good tracts to hunt. My hunts are very affordable and my hunters success rates are is as good as it gets.  Yes its mainly a meat hunt but I do have some very good antlers taken every year. My prices have changed a bit. Check my website out for those changes. I also have an axis herd started. First round babies are on the ground. These animals will be available to hunt by bow or rifle by end of this year.Why travel and pay thousands of dollars for a lease,food,fuel,corn, and stands.   I have all you want right here in Bastrop 21 miles from the airport. I have the pigs and have changed pricing on them as well. I just need 3 days notice in order to insure you a good chance of taking at least a pig if not 10.

Outdoor update

The river below austin caught some good rain and rose about 6.5 feet a week ago. This really flushed the river good. Almost all the Hyacinths and about half the duck weed went down stream. There is still plenty of duck weed for duck season, and the birds have just started to show up, tho the majority of our birds wont be until the second duck season starts. The river is now low and clearing fast. The black and spotted bass should be biting really good. Big rain expected this weekend may muddy the river and slow the bass fishing down. Bow season started very slow with heavy rain over opening weekend which also gave these deer a good browse to work on instead of corn. In the last few days the deer seem to have gotten their fill of rye and other sweet grasses and are back on the corn. If you have oak trees, you still have an acorn problem. Time and moisture will cure that problem. We had a really nice 11 point with a 3 inch drop tine taken yesterday evening. My bow hunts are mainly a meat hunt, but I do have some very nice antlers to be had. I now post most of my pics on Facebook.

Bob

Dove hunts

I do offer dove hunts. $40/man  However, I dont have large numbers  of birds in right now.  I do have another outfitter in San Marcos that has a ton of birds. He charges $80/man for up to 10 guns. This place will fill very fast, so if you want on it, call me now.

Bob

2013 Bow season

Bow season is 7 weeks away. I offer day bow hunts  $75 for a half or $150/day. My stands,my corn. I put you in. I pick you up. Will help you find your kill and I offer a lighted A frame to clean your animal on.  I think my hunters success rate is as good as any day lease you will hunt. My animals are wild. No protein. No genetics. No high fences. Just real hunting. I hand feed each stand everyday prior to opening day. If you havnt hunted with me, you should give it a try. I dont take money just to stick you in a tree to look at nothing. I work hard on my stand sets and feeding to make sure you have the best possible chance at success. My weekends fill up fast. Weekdays are easier to get a spot. I am taking bookings now.
