Good Evening All,
Well here it is....the end of the first day since the last of the Texas Gunning (hunting) Seasons closed at dusk last evening......For 6 full months, since the Dove opener on the First of September, I have an opportunity to gun our migrant and native fowl.
I fear withdrawal may soon set in.... It already has for my young Pointer gyp..... she looks anxiously at the hunting rig, wondering why we did not pursue Bobwhite yet again today.....The older campaigners have seen this before, they are resolutely accepting the annual calendar ritual which brings our Shooting outings to a close.

I can only hope that all you like minded sportsmen and your families had as good a '25/'26 Season as I was blessed with.

Never idle, we will continue to run the dogs on birds, sans gun, until temperatures prohibit, and nesting season beckons the quarry.
I will find myself occupied with habitat work that hopefully keeps this property on track to provide me a chance for another bountiful season to come.
The Best of the "Off Season" to you all.
