A New Season

This past Saturday, a new archery season began in Texas and I am already starting to get reports of some great bucks. Take for example, Kelvin Billington who scored on the second day of the season.

Here's Kelvin's story:

"I've been using the game cam all year to see what's been coming to the feeder. The best thing so far has been a good 8-point, so I set my sights on him.

Saturday morning nothing comes to the feeder but squirrels, coons and cows. About 9:00am I climb out of the stand and pull the card on the game camera. When I get home, this buck is on the last two pictures - notice the time...

He did this last year - only showing up late at night. We never seen him in daylight.

Well, Sunday morning I decide to give it another try. The feeder goes off and here comes the coons. I have my video camera with me so I use up a little film on them. About 8:00 am I spot a buck headed towards the feeder. At first I pick up the binoculars to make sure it's the big 8-point I'm after. He's headed straight to me, so I can't really count points but I know he's big so I put the binoculars down, turn the video camera on, pick up my bow and wait for him to get up to the feeder. Once he turns side ways I see he's the 10-point from the game cam photos. He gets to thirty yards and I send an arrow his way."

Congratulations, Kelvin!
