  1. Congrats solamente. Amazing bull. Great story
  2. Raise the deer lease/cattle lease prices accordingly. I heard if you can get on a UT owned deer leased place its still fairly cheap. Deer hunting is pretty big business nowadays. Not that I know anything
  3. Our ranch in mexico hasnt had any traceable rain since Feb. Were about 5 miles west of the Laredo/Colombia bridge crossing. All tanks had gone bone dry. Cowboys had to keep all windmills running. This past Friday we got 3.5” and Sat-Sun another 1”. All tanks topped off full. Little late for antlers and will make hunting tough with the thick grass/brush but a godsend. Plus the fawns will finally get some cover to hide in.
  4. 60 Minutes story was pretty great. Hook em Tuck
  5. Little honey hole over between Gtown and Rrock was sold. So sat over between taylor and hutto on a harvested corn field. Was muddy as hell. Nearly a limit by 8:30. Brids cut off. Lost 5 pounds of sweat and no breeze felt like a sauna. It rained 1” yesterday evening so that didnt help.
  6. I may have a few deer skulls if interested pm me
  7. Love those,altamont grips on ruger revolvers.
  8. Heres the dallas custom load place but Ive never used them, but heard good things https://dallasreloads.com I have used https://choiceammunition.com With great results And even https://doubletapammo.com Which were great Ive also regularly used ammoseek or just paid extra for premium hunting rounds thru gunbroker. You pay more but they have the good stuff usually. I took my elk in northwest Montana with a 300 win mag with 165gr partitions. 1 round thru both lungs and he ran offa nit and stopped. Second in the shoulder and he dropped. The guide was a friend and said any good round like nosler partition or accubond, sierra gamekings, berger vlds, barnes tsx or most other premium bullets would do the trick. No need for a 338 unless you plan on grizzlies one day. 270 with an at least 150 gr partition type bullet would be the absolute minimum Id rec. With shots around 200-250. The guide recommended minimum .308 in his opinion. Good luck and get in shape. Worst part for me wasnt climbing up,the mountains but hiking down. Tore my knees up. PM if ud like to chat.
  9. Sorry man just saw this. Yes cast iron skillet. Added some pinespple chunks to give it more authentic flavor. But didnt serve the chunks in the tacos.
  10. Ok grandpa. Bet u wear the levi skinny jeans

  16. So I did end up going for 6 days and just got back last week. Austin to CDMX to GDL. Flights were quick easy and breeze thru mexican customs in CDMX. Took uber from airport to airbnb in Ladron de Guevera right outside americana. Really nice place with 24 hr security and huge balcony overlooking the City. First night we ubered over to Plaza Andaras to grab a quick bite and look around. Went to a few bars, Magdalena was nice but could tell they thought their shit didnt stink and they were turning away people with reservations that were not "dressed" appropriately. So we left and heard mariachis playing in LA 20 bar/restaurant. We stayed there till 2a drinking and listening to mariachis. Gotta say was pretty cool and the mall and where we were was jam packed till 2a. My kinda music and atmosphere. Drank victoria beer and killed a bottle of Tequila Clase Azul reposado. Pretty damn good sipping tequila with no aftertaste or bite, sooth as a babys ass. Got an uber back to the ABNB and got the drivers info. Cool guy with a nice ride that new everywhere to go. 2nd day took a private car tour to Tequila. Stopped for breakfast at a small hole in the wall place on the way called LaCurva de La Torre. Ate some carnes en su jugo, fresh corn torts, cafe con pilonzillo and some huevos. Was all pretty damn good. Next stop was at Tequila Tres Mujeres distillery. Was cool to see the tequila process and we got to taste test a shit load of different tequilas and wall around. Cool to see the process and how the different types of tequila are aged and walked thru the cava where the barrells are kept. Was surprised to see that this 1 distillery makes tequila in the names of like 15 different brands so these all basically taste the same from the same place. Next up stopped at Cantaritos El Guero. Drank a few cantaritos listening to mariachis playing all my favs from ramon ayala, chente fernandez and all types of norteno music. I had thought the banda craze had taken over around here but was glad to hear great old school music while sipping on a few cantaritos. Next on to Tequila. Walked around el centro and the museums and the jose cuervo distillery. Pretty cool little town that was packed with drunk tourists. Grabbed a few beers and tequilas walking around town. The guide did take us out to a new local spot with huge swings where you could swing out off a cliff edge and see a huge valley. But nah I thought the swing looked a little suspect and didnt give it a go. I liked seeing the workers in the filed hand harvesting the agave plants and all the mexican people around. Was really caught me off guard was how green and moutainous the area was. I had assumed it would be flat and dry. The Tequila volcano made the area fertile for the agave and the fields were filled with volcanic rock and red dirt. Was green everywhere. On the way out of town in Tequila the guide took us to Hotel Matices. Was a cool little hotel with little cottages that where made to look like Tequila barrels. We went to a restaurant they had built under ground in a cava. Ate some mole de pollo, aguacate and fresh corn tortillas. All was on point. We finally got back to GDL around 7p and drove by AKRON Stadium home of the Chivas. 3rd day went to el centro of Guadalajara. Walked around and checked out the sites. Ate a bunch of tacos and tried the tortas ahogadas. Gotta say the torta was not really that good for my tastes. Was just different. We then took a ride over to Tlaquepaque. That was a cool area and the Centro was clean with some nice shops and bars/restaurants. Went to Casa Luna and the food and drinks were good. Got some tacos al carbon and fresh torts and salsa. 4th day plan was to go to Chapala. Driver took us to breakfast at Terraza Angelo. Was a buffet style place but had homemade dishes and lady making tortillas and gorditas by hand. Had chilaquiles, pan frances, quesadillas y arros y frijoles. Was outstanding and its set in a cool little garden open air courtyard. We left out for Chapala and stopped at the Vicente Fernandez ranch Los Tres Portillos for a quick tour. Was cool to see. Made Chapala early and walked around town shopping and checking out the sites. Had a few cold modeles on the shoreline. The lake is the largest lake in Mexico and is huge. The driver then took us to Ajijic, a smaller retirement area. Place was dotted with both retired Americans and Mexicans. Cool to talk to some gueros who knew good and proper espanol. We wandered for few hours checking out the stores and bars. On the way back to town we stopped at Birrieria Chololo and ate birria. Was pretty good a bit different but again the fresh chips, fresh salsa and torts were amazing. 5th day we went to Tonala to check out the artisan shops that mostly sell to the higher end stores in Guadalajara that mark that shit up. Saw some amazing art work and had made furniture. Some leather sofas with detailed upholstered designs that would cost $7-$10k here in the states for like $375. Was crazy. We went back to Zapopan and ate and bought some parting gifts and we called it a day. We came home early on day 6. Back to CDMX and then to Austin. I gotta say security lines we went through were near non-existent. The uber guy wanted only like $150 bucks for the day but I was like fuck that and filled him up daily and gave him double that. He seemed genuinely happy and even brought us a parting gift of a bottle of reposada tequila when he dropped us off a the airport. Cool to see Guadalajara as I had never been. Never made it to Ave Chapultapec much except in passing which I wish we had seen. I liked everything about GDL. Was like CDMX with less people on the street. Traffic was probably 3/4 as congested. Of course GLD is about 2-3 million mexicans while CDMX has 20-30 million. Thanks for all the recs and hit me up if you need any tips or more specifics on where we went. Will post pics later. Now back to CDMX for F1 and later the world cup for viewing with my people. Fuck off with any typo correctionsss. Adios mofos
