11/4/05 - 11/6/05 Deer, Turkey, and Hog Hunt

 

 

Three officers, three members, and two youth members (eight total participants) had a great time at the 11/4/05 - 11/6/05 Deer, Turkey, and Hog Hunt at the Cottrell Ranch.  Jim Gault bagged an 8 pointer and a doe, I, Randy Rowley, bagged a 4 pointer and a doe, Tim Price bagged a spike (still in velvet) and a doe, Tyler Price bagged a 4 pointer (his first deer), and Warren Hoke, David Chalmers, and Isaac Price bagged does.  Seven of the eight hunters bagged game.  After the rest of us left Tim caught an 8 lb. bass and two seven pounders.  Isaac and Tyler each caught a four pounder.  They brought a 10 lb. catfish to the bank but it broke the line.  David missed head shots at a couple of turkeys and Dick Matteson missed a doe.   We did not see any hogs.  The 10 animals taken is a record for an FCS big game hunt.  This is also the first time that we have harvested bucks at an FCS Deer Hunt.  We ate like Kings, with T-bones for dinner one night, and fajitas the next and Dick made a super pot of chili that we had at every meal!
