Nice deer there! I've had some just like the first one on camera last year and let them slide. They haven't shown up this year. I'm afraid either the lions or the hogs have forced them to move. We are headed back out this Friday evening and will stay until Monday.

If I don't find a good one this weekend I'll burn a tag on a cull and take out a pig or two if presented the opportunity.

2400/349 area. We do not have hogs

Right after Thanksgiving I talked to a buddy that lives in Langtry. He is pretty connected in the southern part of the Trans-Pecos. I asked him about hogs along the Rio Grande and he says that they are distributed as far as approximately 25 miles up river from Langtry. We frequent an area (not hunted) near Shafter Crossing (South of Dryden) on the River. No pigs up there yet.

and me and the GF are doing our best to thin them out or eliminate them. I've got cameras on 4 of our 9 setups and hogs have been on everyone. Hogs have been killed on the ones I don't have cameras too. Heck, we've probably killed hogs at all 9 stands. We are about 25 miles north of Pumpville and 20 east of 349.

















And if that ain't enough fun for ya, we got these suckers! Although, we have thinned these out significantly.

Disregard the javi pic. They're not as big a PITA as the sheep and hogs are.


We attended church at the Pumpville Baptist Church about 3 weeks ago and when I told them all we had killed was hogs, several of the ranchers attending thought I was shooting javi's. They nearly schitt themselves when I showed them the pics.

Yea all those pigs are a ways off from me south of the airport. But in west Texas you never know what’s gonna walk out. Could be a deer, bear, pig or person. It’s a special place those that hunt out there know. Here’s a question. Not to jack the thread. What tires are Doing you well out here on your ATVs and Trucks. I’m doing alright with KO2’s on the truck and ripsaws on the 4wheelers. No bad luck yet. Those lil micro mesquite will get you with a thumb size hole. Just wondering......

Hogs are going west while aoudad seem to be moving east... Will not be long before hogs inhibit the Rio Grand up to Big Bend... Hogs are also in the northern parts of val verde and spreading in all directions it seems...

Aoudad are running around just west of Langtry and will probably keep moving east along the river...

We are 8 miles north of Dryden and 8 miles east . We are on Meyers canyon, no hogs here. Not enough water, I think

Believe it or not, I've seen hogs 30 miles north of Van Horn where we used to hunt. I couldn't believe my eyes. I needed more ammo that day!

Just caught up on this thread, you guys are killing me, I do miss hunting that country. Congrats on all the kills thus far!

[TXBRASS]

I hunted a ranch south of Sanderson just off the Rio in 2005 and we killed 3 feral hogs there in 2 days. Ranch owner said they would come up Maxon Canyon from the Rio during the night.

Place I hunt is on Meyers Canyon. No hogs, Javi show up every now and then. Deer were plentiful before the gun season started. They cleared out quickly after that. Hope to go out there Christmas and hunt till the 29th.

[spread5150]

South of dryden 5 miles we used to have javalina bouncing around. Have not seen one in several years.

[Dhtx1117]

Have not seen a single pig, nor sign of them. No javalina spotted. Bad thing this year, because of all the rain, they don’t need to come out of the draws.

We've been working on clearing these nasty things out. No telling how many we've taken off the ranch over the last year.

Well, 3 of these showed up Monday morning and ran all my deer off. I knocked 2 down and shot at the 3rd as he ran away.

The Barrett Fieldcraft in 6.5 Swede and 130 gr. Scirocco's did the trick.

[ATTACH]938357[/ATTACH

I saw the largest 8 point I have ever seen on the ranch on Saturday. He looked like a mule deer. He was at least 6.5, sway back, big gut, barrel chest. I had him broadside at 200 yards, but noticed that he had broken off 2 tines on his left side. I let him go. I wish I'd taken him now.

The rut was on like donkey kong Thursday thru Saturday. I've never seen so much chasing in my life. Someone flipped a switch on Sunday and it all was pretty much **** down.

[Dhtx1117]

Friggin full moon and wind this morning. Have not seen a thing move other than a couple field larks. Wife is curled up in the “good chair” taking a siesta.

Didn’t see anything during the day. Pulled cards and every day, for the past four days was the same, they were showing up between 9:30 and 11:30 at night and partying till about 4:30 in the morning. Nero activity during daylight hours. Here’s the fat ******* I have been trying to get my wife to kill.

Does anyone know when or if the mule deer rut in Terrell county has occurred?

[DWV015]

Ttt

[bps3040]

We normally see the them start chasing 1st week of December

[SabreKiller]

The mule deer usually start around Christmas. We saw a bunch yesterday leaving out of the lease. No good bucks but a couple of up and comers.

I finally shot a deer this weekend. I also knocked down 3 Spanish goats and 2 pigs. I gave myself a case of magnum eyebrow shooting those pigs, too.

[TXBRASS]

Nicely done!

[SabreKiller]

Probably headed back out there this weekend. One of the other hunters has been very sick for a couple of years. He needs to kill one and we'll make his final feeder fill for the year.

Then, we won't go back until late February.

I shot this buck on the 30th, my best west Texas deer

[ETX_REAPER]

[bps3040]

Nice!

[ETX_REAPER]

thanks! he was a last day deer, and just so happened to be a big un. I am still flip flopping on whether to euro him or shoulder mount.

[bps3040]

We are going next week, for extended season. Also for dove and Quail! Love sharpshooting Quail with 1022/ silencer. They have no idea what is going on and they are delish. Cannot wait

Sounds good, good luck to yall!

[texan4ut]

I am going to try and get out there for the late season. Probably not next week though with all of the rain.

[SabreKiller]

This will be my last time until late February most likely. I'd like to go for the extended season, but I must work the youth livestock show and it just so happens to be that entire week!

[Dhtx1117]

This is my last hunt for the year. God willing I don’t leave without two in the cooler. It’s been colder than a well diggers arse today. I’ve gone thru 3 1/2 cans of propane.

[bps3040]

It can definitely get chilly out there. Propane heaters are your friend. Looks like perfect weather for next week! Plus Quail, Dove, and whitetail seasons are open.

I hunt the Terrell/Val Verde county line and the pigs have picked up significantly where we hunt.

I'm headed back out there tomorrow to knock down a few more if I can.

[bps3040]

We are off 349, 8 miles north of Dryden. We are right on Meyers Canyon. No hogs or Aoudad.
