Come to TX and help us kill the dang things. 5 whitetail, 2 mule tags on my license. I probably had 5 in my yard eating my plants this morning.

Our season doesn't start till the 20th for guns. One guy did get two with one arrow the other week. 10 pointer had killed the 12 pointer. Had a nice doe standing on the back slab ten feet from the kitchen door on Friday. They're really starting to move.

Haven't made up my mind if I'm going or not this year.

I will be lucky enough to even go this year. Work always has me tied to the store. So I can only hunt on the weekend. And since opening day is the weekend after "Black Friday", I have to be at work on Friday, pack and leave on the same day. I don't think I will setup a tent this year, just sleep in the Ranger.

Well, the only thing I can say about hunters is this.....if animals carried guns..........................lol

Yeah Straycat - you've voiced that repeatedly. Around here though, if we don't shoot them, they'll starve to death. Nobody wants coyotes in their neighborhood for some reason. I don't shoot any animal I don't eat - well except for squirrels a.k.a tree rats.

Yea, you area a good hunter. But the ones that bother me, are the ones that shoot for sport, don't take the meat and let it rot. My dad was a hunter and he was a good hunter...the kind I respect.

Now for my question to all Hunters......if there are so may starving animals out there...why do you only kill that really huge monster and not shoot the starving ones? I have asked this question since I was knee high to a grasshopper....lol

Let the whining begin.

It's all about the management. My father-in-law hunts quail on a lease in South TX. It's about 7500 acres of high-fenced land. The very few deer hunters they have there have a helicopter survey done every year by TX Parks and Wildlife to figure out how many need to be shot, and what sex needs to be shot to keep the population in control. The whole point is to keep the deer from ever gettting to the point where they are starving. The hunters shoot the scrub bucks and old does to keep the genetics good. As far as the quail go, they have about a 70% yearly mortality rate anyway so it doesn't matter to their population that much if you shoot them or not. Last year, with the drought they've been having, no one was allowed to shoot a single bird because their population was so low. These guys are spending $10k/year for their lease to manage the wildlife, not kill it.

i'm not a "sport hunter", i will get one or two to fill my freezer.. then go after the monster deer. but even the monster deer makes good jerky!

deer are way over populated here in MS... and we have to kill them. i know of so many people that have ran over deer b/c they are over populated and venturing into the towns and roads and... yeah part of the problem is not really "over populated", it's the fact of the woodlands being cut down. i know this... yada yada yada, point is... i can't wait to go hunting! i need deer meat!

In our backyard, every day we see life like this while we have a cup of coffee or a bite to eat out back. We have a 100 acre site and I won't allow hunting here. It is my 'Private Idaho'. I do not hate hunter since they pay for a lot of care of the wilderness with their dues, taxes and hunting licences. I will always respect a good hunter as I have stated so many times.
