Wow...add a few crappie to them pics and we've got a new LA version of SURF N TURF!!! Congrats on the hunting man!
Great going, Dubroc! Congrats on both - though I really hate to see a brother duck slayer get sidetracked by a mangy ol deer. Keep your priorities in order, son! :D

Congratulations on the deer. You make it look and sound easy. I wish that is was. I guess we will have to find us another way to get to Uncle Buds since the road on the diversion canal is so bad. Hope to meet you at the gathering. Maybe you can give me a few pointers.
The Lord is good. His mercy and love endures forever.
Beginners luck Brendon, it's all down hill from here.

those are some nice looking deer good hunting and keep it up
Just my two cents:D
Brendon, Congrats on the deer. You don't know how many times I thought about bringing my climber and a rifle when we had the winter gatherings up there. Some beautiful hardwoods. We don't have many places down here like that, mostly pine plantations. Thanks for the pics and story.
You can't fish with a hung line!
