Hi Charlie    

The below pic is a bit more bloody graphic but you can see that Curt's shot was perfectly on the money ...

Got home about 2PM yesterday. Had a great time. Killed a big doe but had several opportunities at bucks eight points and less. No hogs ventured my way. On Saturday morning I had 6 bucks and five does and yearlings within 35 yards, That's when the the big boy showed up. Very wide(18" plus) and 10 to 12 inch tines. Presented a quartering away shot at 35 to 40 yards which I would not take. Instead of coming in to play he turned and walked straight away from me. I'll always remember that sight.

This hunt was great fun. Got to meet and hunt with some super TradGangers. Everyone had plenty of opportunities to take game. The bunkhouse and food were great. The guides and staff members went out of there way to make sure that your needs and expectations were met. I would recommend this hunt to anyone who is looking for an opportunity to hunt a good Texas ranch with avid traditional bowhunters. There was truly plenty of game, plenty of food and plenty of fun to go around. Adios!!!

Wow...what a great hunt with a bunch of fine gents!!!...new friendships were forged, and old ones reunited.

And, we were a bit conservative on bucks let me tell ya.  Its tuff when you can get only one buck, and you have to make a choice on what to pass on, and we passed on a bunch, and a couple of big bucks were foiled at 3 quarter draw by unlucky happenstances no fault of the hunter, and one giant bucked evidently wheeled just enough....but the memories are etched in the minds of the hunters for ever.

I passed on a smallish ten pointer the 1st afternoon, and passed on EIGHT 8 pointers in bow range on the 1st whole day of the hunt!!!.....

My 'guide' then took my camera away from me.                  

I'll be back with a few buck pics in a moment...sorry for the poor quality...I WAS trying to be still.     :D

First here is some pics of the Solana Ranch....Terry nailed it on the blurry pics, notice how clear the pics are that don't have deer in them and how blurry the deer pics are.....

I can only echo what Terry and others have already said about the Solana Ranch - the experience for me was exceptional in every way ... well, 'cept for that big buck, but I'll be back next year!
