    Anyone hunting public lands in Texas. I am going to start doing this next year. I was just wanting to network with some guys and get some feedback on what works for you guys.

    For me the worst thing is the places that I hunt deer are bow only but since squirel season is the same time they hurt the hunting. The duck is great and the pig is fantastic. We duck hunt at Richland creek and Cooper Deer hunt in Vand Zandt and Hunt. Pig hunt in Copper

    I've done some hunting in Del Rio this past year and got to see some really good deer. Ian going to hunt up in San Angelo and try some south Texas hunts as well

    Can't say for sure because that is the only place I've been. There is also good mule deer hunting in West Texas on public and good opportunities to hunt exotics on a couple WMA's. Do a quick google search and you can find out a lot.

    The Matador WMA is excellent mule deer and white tail but very difficult to draw. Caprock State park good for mulies and Audad but even harder to draw. I have hundred Matador twice, but never Caprock
