Little lack luster this am ... lets see if it breaks open this afternoon

Uh- Oh...

Atta boy..

Here we go!

Easy fellas it's probably a teaser like last night! Cv

Time for the morning coffee report....

Yesterday's Camp House blend brewed with a distinct aroma, a little fruit smell mixed in. Hence the red apple in the flavor description. Everyone found it interestingly good, emphasis on the word interesting. The two post were enjoyed yesterday morning,  but High Noon was made again at lunch. 

Fireside is one of two of Backwood's dark roasts, and we will be having it this morning  to start the day...

Let me get this Maduro lit and ill get started ...

 

We are having a ball... as I'm sure you can tell.

We'll, as I stated earlier, I've been waiting in the wings....

Joe and I saw some javies in the road 1000 yards away and we decided to do a drive n dive. We would drive by and I would dive out.  As we approached the group went into the nasty to the left, and as soon as they made their move so did I.... now I was officially 'in the game'....

Sounds like the hunting is as good as the coffee!!!

I eased up to hurriedly and got myself too close to where the closest one went in and the wind shifted....

Next thing I hear is a lecture from the land of thorns and needles on how I'm out of place.  I hang tight hoping the 2nd one is paying no attention and will ignore his buddies rant....

After a few minutes out comes this tiny ragged mop with legs....

As compared to his buddies that came out from across the street to join him that looked like GQ models...

Yes, from across the street. These guys weren't in the plan, but they started piling onto the road....

👍👍now we're talking!!  Great pictures so far. 👌

At 30 yards they group up and decide to head my way.... Now I'm not really hid at all, just standing behind a waist high bush hiding behind my bow and bow quiver. Luckily I'm turned perfect for their approach to shoot without adjustment if given the opportunity....

They just keep coming with no concern at all it seems zigzaging about on their journey....

The next think I see is my fletchs disappearing into the lead javie's boiler room.... followed by an arching leap-roaring bite back . The group exploded with the victim of happenstance bolting toward my direction and dove into the nasty and crashed....

Knife given to me by my friend Kevin Stroup, who I got started in trad and could not make the hunt. Nice to be able to bloody it in his honor....

Javies are Gods gift to a stalking bowhunter!!!

Congrats!

Way to go Terry! Thanks for sharing this hunt with us. Can't wait to see what the rest of the guys are doing!

Nice job, Terry.  Hoping to see some more pics of downed javi.  Any hogs being seen down there?
