My family has been on a 1800 acer LF lease in Llano, TX for the past 11 years with a handle-full of other family friends. In the past years we don't have huge bucks (largest being 146" take from the place) but it is typical to see 5-10 or more deer each sit.
Last year (2019/2020) was rather slow with people not seeing as many deer throughout the year with 15 deer not taken at the end of the season out of our total allotment of deer. (Each spot on the lease gets 1 mature buck, 1 cull & 2 does). A few people on our lease last year would go through a hunt and only see 1-2 and even get skunked a few hunts.
This season is the same but worse. 4 weeks into the season only 6 deer shot on our place. I hunted 4 times this past weekend only seeing 4 deer total for the weekend.
Just wanted to see if anyone else in Llano County was experiencing anything similar? We are hearing a lot more coyotes and wondering if the freeze made a big impact on the deer in the hill country.
