		<description><![CDATA[ After wrapping up pronghorn season it was time to start hunting whitetail.&nbsp; In Texas, a good protion of the ranches have Managed Land Deer Permits (MLDP or MLD for short) which allow us to start rifle hunting at the beginning of October.&nbsp; With a lot of the ranches hunting whitetail the week I was hunting pronghorn, I knew there were some really big deer killed already.&nbsp; My buddy, James Newport, shot a monster whitetail with his bow opening day that grossed 202&quot; and will net right around 196&quot;.&nbsp; That's a net Boone and Crockett Non-Typical with a bow!!!&nbsp; On that same ranch on the same hunt, another hunter shot a whitetail that grossed 230&quot; non-typical!!! Two book non-typical deer,&nbsp;during the worst drought in recorded history,&nbsp;on the same ranch on the same day!! Very impressive!!
Mike was coming in from NC and for the last year we had been planning on bowhunting a big deer.&nbsp; We finally decided on hunting the second week of October and... ]]></description>

		<link>http://www.huntdoublediamond.com/blog_direct_link.cfm/blog_id/23598</link>
		<description><![CDATA[ I wrapped up Pronghorn season with 3 successful hunts.&nbsp; The biggest Pronghorn we killed was 14-7/8&quot; and scored just over 70&quot;.&nbsp; That's a pretty nice Pronghorn for where we hunt and it was Barbara's 1st Pronghorn, so she was very excited.
The 1st few days of the season were cool, overcast, and rainy but after the 1st weekend it cleared up and we had great weather.&nbsp; It was deffinitely a nice change having the cooler weather, though.&nbsp; The sun can get pretty intense at that elevation, so being overcast was pretty nice.&nbsp; West TX has been getting quite a lot of rain, so the grass was pretty tall and that made it a little difficult to spot the Pronghorn unless they were up and moving.&nbsp; When they layed down, they pretty much dissapeared.&nbsp;
Unfortunately West TX, mainly the&nbsp;region around Marfa,&nbsp;has been experiencing a drop in Pronghorn.&nbsp; The ranch we hunt still has good numbers of Pronghorn and some really nice bucks, but it's still a ... ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ So my season gets started in earnest tomorrow.&nbsp; Pronghorn season begins tomorrow and I'm headed out to Ft Davis for the next week to hunt Pronghorn and Aoudad.&nbsp; I love being out there this time of year.&nbsp; We normally have great weather, the scenery is absolutely gorgeous, and I&nbsp;love to hunt pronghorn and aoudad.
It looks like it's going to be a great season.&nbsp; I'll keep you posted, so stay tuned.

		<title><![CDATA[ CO Archery Season & Fuzzy Horned Whitetail ]]></title> 
		<link>http://www.huntdoublediamond.com/blog_direct_link.cfm/blog_id/22910</link>
		<description><![CDATA[ So the CO archery season is in full swing and the hunting has been pretty good. We have been seeing some really good mule deer at our water troughs, and the elk are talking like crazy.&nbsp; We don't have anything on the ground yet, but have had a 170ish mule deer within 30 yards, but on the wrong side of the fence, and a 280ish bull elk at 22 yards.&nbsp; The elk came in on the 2nd day of the season and he just wasn't big enough for that early in the season.&nbsp; Here's a little video after it was decided that he wasn't big enough.&nbsp; He's the bigger of the 2 elk in the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ng_jmFquRJg
Not being in CO this time of year is weird for me, but I've been going to different ranches and scouting for whitetail and&nbsp;have been seeing some really big deer.&nbsp; It looks like a lot of the deer just stuck their head in the protien because of the drought.&nbsp; I've seen several deer that just blew up and grew 30&quot;+ this year.&nbsp; Crazy in the middle... ]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[ More CO Archery Season ]]></title> 
		<link>http://www.huntdoublediamond.com/blog_direct_link.cfm/blog_id/22717</link>
		<description><![CDATA[ Not much to report today except some cool weather and great hunting.&nbsp; My buddy, Ryan, passed a 280&quot;&nbsp;elk this morning.&nbsp; It's just way to early in the season to be killing a bull like that.&nbsp; Not that there's anything wrong with a 280&quot; elk, but when you've been seeing 300&quot;+ bulls&nbsp;it's kind of a no brainer.&nbsp; He got it all on video though, so that should be awesome to watch.
The rain we got right after we planted the wheat is really going to help and we will probably have wheat coming out of the ground in a couple of weeks.&nbsp; This should really increase our chances at mule deer &amp; elk later in the archery season.&nbsp; The elk and mule deer are really coming to the water tanks and things are looking real good and should only get better as the season progresses.
CO is off to a great start and the game camera pictures I'm getting from our ranches in TX are looking very promising as well.
I'm ready to start hunting, so stay tuned.

		<description><![CDATA[ So today was the 1st day of archery season in CO.&nbsp; I always love this time of year in CO.&nbsp;&nbsp;By this&nbsp;time of&nbsp;the summer in TX I've had enough of the heat&nbsp;and I'm ready to head to cooler weather and hear some elk sing to me.&nbsp; Unfortunately I write this from TX and I'm not going to be making the trip to CO.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'm bummed because we have been seeing a lot of tracks around our water tanks, seeing a lot of really big mule deer&nbsp;and we got some rain on the wheat we planted and it's starting to come out of the ground.&nbsp; It'll be ok though.&nbsp; We are going to have&nbsp;corn, oats, and wheat&nbsp;planted next year as well as have the water tanks full and the animals will be there.&nbsp;&nbsp;I'll be ready and it will only be better!
I&nbsp;start hunting in earnest in early October out in West TX for Pronghorn.&nbsp; Since I'm not able to make it to CO to hunt elk or mule deer, I can't wait to see some Pronghorn!&nbsp; Plus we've been getting ... ]]></description>
