It’s been a while since I’ve posted here. Life has been a bit of a whirlwind lately. I took a company-mandated sabbatical, only to be laid off while I was on it. Then, just two days later, hackers got into my account and made off with thousands.
Despite all that, the hunting season itself was a great one. I was able to tag a nice 9-point on low-fence South Texas, and my son tagged one too—on the very same day. A few weeks ago, I was also invited to Cactus Flat Ranch outside Eagle Pass for a nilgai hunt with the Double Down Feed crew, where I took my first nilgai bull.
Overall, an excellent hunting season with a pretty rough ending to the year.
Cheers, guys!

Dang man that sucks, but almost everyone I know that gets laid off ends up coming out ahead in the end. Me an a buddy were just talking today about wise eye cameras and trying them based on one of our other buddies have good luck with them so far.

Sorry to hear about the job but I have faith you’ll find something very soon. Prayers you do.

Congrats on the hunts. As you already know time with your kids will mean more than time behind a desk.

What type of work do you do and where do you live? Lot of folks on this board in different industries.
