Just got back from a ranch in Uvalde, TX where I bagged my first buck with a bow. They were letting us shoot culls/management deer. I shot this 120lb 10pt, they aged him at 10.5 years and said he was the oldest deer ever killed out there.

Here are some pics of the ranch "house". The guy who owns the ranch is a high school buddy of my dads who is a CEO of a big company and has more money than he knows what to do with (and knows how to spend it).





Entry hole using 100 grain rage retractable broadheads


Best gun room I've ever seen, its got 10in thick cement walls all of the way around and it's filled to the brim with every gun imaginable. The safe door was taken from an old bank and completely rebuilt




Got to shoot this one last year, didn't kick near as much as i though it would. We were hitting targets 1200 yards away


.50 cal bullet, cost $5.50 each




2 of the deer he killed at the king ranch

Normally i would a agree but this guy lives to share everything he has. He hosts annual youth hunts and always has friends and friends of friends come out to hunt. Really a nice guy and very humble. Worked his way from the ground up, started as a mechanic and is now at the top 40 years later.

This house is ridiculous, it's been 3 years in the making...only a minuscule 12000 sq ft

He actually doesn't do paid hunts out there, strictly has it for fun and lets friends/family hunt.

Its good that people like that are out their. My best friend from high school dad is rich, I dont know about that rich but wealthy nonetheless. You wouldn know it to look at em though. wears carhartt overalls and shite like that all the time. Quit high school in 9th grade and owns multiple businesses now. Cons. company, real estate and such.

Success just runs in his family, his brother owns a company that just sold to Haliburton for mega-money and his cousin is the president of a division for the company i work for.
