Thanks Man! It really is a dream come true. Being able to buy some land with my brothers, build some little cabins, and hunt our own property........ That picture sums it all up.

I bought my cabin and land 8 years ago and I can say it was truly life changing - congrats. I got one like that the third year I owned it but the big ones aren’t around every year. The coolest thing is just seeing the same deer year over year, watching them as the grow from fawns. Trust me on this: you will start to get attached to them...it will get tougher to shoot “your deer”.
Yeah I think I got a few pictures of him last year. Just a little bit smaller. The bucks only move into our area during the rut.
I know exactly what you mean. We have a doe that chooses our neighbors property to fawn every year. The fawns are behind the fence until they are old enough to jump out or mom feels comfortable enough for them to leave. Our boys get their binos out and are constantly glassing for them in the window. Pretty cool to watch them nurse and what not.
When it comes to bucks I try to set my standards pretty high for a shooter. With 4 boys under 5, I spend a lot of my "hunting" from my back porch. We do have B&C bucks running around here so there is something to aim for. I do realize that any of the bucks I see can get shot at the neighbors, hit by a car, or poached, etc. But I just try to stick to the plan.
Enjoy owning the property. In the next few years we will be looking to buy more. Probably with elk.
I do not, and definitely not in my front yard. We have other livestock and lots of ranching out here. We do have sightings of cats around, but they don't last long. We can shoot them here in CO and CPW does a good job of thinning them out here if needed.
Yes. A hand full of lion pictures. Most are walking down the road. Never seen one in person there. I'm fine with them as long as they don't stalk my kids as they collect pine cones and play in between cabins.
