Title: Shooting houses...
Post by: Gobbleking57 on January 19, 2010, 12:01:41 PM: Went to a private farm on a doe shoot last week and had my first experience with Texas style shooting houses....Shot me 4 does that day...Landowner owns a hydraulic deer stand company in Ga.. and also builds guard towers for the Mexico border patrol....It was in the twenties that day and the wind was blowing so these stands were the ticket to enjoy hunting in brutal conditions..
