By Ken Perrotte | There is something special about the rapid bump-bump-bump-bump of your truck’s wheels rolling over the steel beams of a cattle guard at the gate of a sprawling Texas ranch. It is a transition point, the spot where your anticipation really starts peaking, especially when the gate is at a place like the Lowrance Ranch near Truscott, Texas, a well-managed haven for big white-tailed deer.
The ranch is located east of Lubbock and about 100 miles due north of Abilene. Arriving there for a November 2024 outdoor industry hunt sponsored by Trijicon was a bit like sliding back in time 45 years to the three years I served at Dyess AFB, a Strategic Air Command installation adjacent to Abilene. I’m not saying I’m old, but we still had B-52D models, the ones with a tail gunner, on the flightline when I was stationed there.
