These are real South American rubber rock points

We use boulders around here for wind indication. 😀

Yep, but mine are special. Made from Alibates flint. Some of the most traded by the Native Americans. And of special note, if you don’t hit’em they won’t break your arrow.

Just to get back on the archery subject mom:D

Doc your so old I didn’t think you’d remember them, er that. 🙄

I got a weather rock too, you want one? Guaranteed to work in TN, just like it does here in TX. 😀

Bruce it looks like a butterfly or bird wing. There’s more on the other side. The more we study on it we think it’s a fossilized egg of something. If you can look at the whole rock it looks like it has eggshell lines, broken on the end, one can make out what looks like perhaps a leg bone and possibly hip socket. I’m going to try to get it to someone at West Texas State U one of these days. Maybe they’ll not tell me it’s just another “you know what’n rock”.:D

Mule deer rifle opened here yesterday and here’s old R2 poking around with his bow, orange cap upon me noggin, snooping in the draws and canyons with my new Canyon Archery bow, and this caught my eye

It’s not always about the hunt.

Good thing I have other things to find as the two tracks through the area are quite well traveled now and after only the first of 14 days. I just disappear into the country as much as I can and snoop around. Perhaps someone will move something to me.

Amazing to me how the nature of the beast, the difference in life patterns between mule deer and whitetail deer, turns so many people into road hunters.

I think it best for me to let all get back to work after Thanksgivings and then perhaps I’ll have the last week to myself mostly.

I could change weapons, still may, but I hunt with that as I do with my bow, I attempt to go get’em.

Hey Grumpy, maybe he got 5 birds and he moved a deer out and it’s gonna come sneaking by you paying attention to only where it came from. Spose? :?:? Fat chance uh!

Hope you get over cold soon.

Scott, you might as well use white shafts with white feathers and white nocks for camo purposes cause you ain’t gonna find them anyway. 😀

I’ll bet this helps considerable if one gets confused about which way the wind doth blow.:D

Deer everywhere today but, muley does and they’re not on the menu. it’s always successful though when you can get out and you’re rewarded with something like this

Not a scenic as yours but we have our first snow of the year also.

The tracks of activity are wife to and from school then to the hairdresser. Different kind of wildlife, not huntable but lucky for me, catchable. 😀 Or who got caught???:?
