I am awfully positive that this buck was shot youth weekend by a young kid hunting to the North of us ( less than a mile). Buck had more impressive rack in 2010 as this pic shows.

Nice 135" , 10-pointer. He was 4.5 years of age and just an 1 1/2" of horn deduction.

Heck, we would take rifle hunters this weekend. No bucks have been harvested. There has been very little pressure on these deer for many years. We have only had 3 other hunters out this year, 2 bowhunters and 1 rifle hunter. So far, only 1 doe has been harvested. All hunters told me that they want to book for the future. Hunting on Persimmon Springs is the ultimate in fair-chase hunting. Theodore Roosevelt hunted it horseback and we have a hunting cabin that was once a late 1800's schoolhouse. Oh and we happen to have some Good deer hunting. Call Aaron at 940-224-1938.

Forgot to say this was on the Persimmon Spring Ranch. Here's the two brothers who own and run the ranch posing with my buck. I was compensated for my publicity photos.

Still looking for someone to grab this opening weekend hunting spot. It should be a good one. Youth hunter saw 30 deer and missed an 8-pointer. He is hooked and his dad is bringing him back for more in a couple of weeks. We donated this youth hunt to the DeerFest event in Wichita Falls. Monies go to Adopt-A -Box program to raise money for school supplies, clothes, and other essentials. Anyway, this is the only weekend we have open in November so someone needs to take advantage.

I hunted with Aaron and his brother last year. Pretty good folks. Good ground with plenty of potential. We saw a couple of does and a young buck but no shooters. They were just getting going good with bow only. I am sure there are some good ones there but as luck would have it we did not have a chance at them. Lodging is in an old school house that was redone. i would hunt there again.
