Yep I'm itchin too down here in Grimes County, Texas. College football is a must especially since I live right here in the heart of Aggieland, less than 10 minutes away from Texas A&M campus. Hell I even had the opportunity of cooking for Coach Kevin Sumlin and the entire Texas A&M football coaching staff and their families earlier tonight at the restaurant that I cook at. And around here we have open rabbit and squirrel seasons, but I'm not big into that. But I enjoy Dove hunting and it starts less than a month away on September 1st. And after that deer season starts on November 1st which isn't to terribly far away and I cant wait to try to fill my freezer up this year, especially with all the deer action we've been seeing here lately on my parents cattle ranch in neighboring Grimes County. Also I'm waiting for the weather to cool off some to see if the hog action increases like it usually does because its dead right now except around the deep deep river bottoms, swamps, and sloughs right now as far as hogs go. So yeah I'm with ya SaltyDog we got alota good hunting ahead in the not so far future, and my wife is like yours she will start getting jealous of my guns because I spend so much time with them in the fall and winter out in the woods during hunting season. And I hope we get some good college ball this year also, I know there are some people in South Carolina on this thread but watch out because the Aggie's are gonna rule the S.E.C. this year so watch out Gamecocks! Gig Em Ags!! And happy hunting to all.
