I have drawn a blank so far. My son on the other side of the property has seen a small buck chasing a doe (he said at warp speed), a decent 8 and another small 4 pt.
I grew up just outside Longview (Dangicer road area). Left 46 yrs ago and haven't been back much since. Lots'a good memories haunting the woods in that area but not much deer there back then. Most deer hunting was around L O P/Diana area.
Y'all go get 'em! Good luck!
I have really high deer numbers around my house. I’m just north east of town on the edge of the city limits. I run a scrape camera and usually see 15-20 bucks visit it during the season.
This is my 6th year hunting my property and I’ve been fortunate to take 2 bucks and a few doe with my bow & muzzleloader there. Nothing huge but I have seen some really big deer in the past.
I have 20 acres with only about 4 acres realistically huntable woods.
Seeing 115-130” deer are common every year but killing them is a challenge. I have pictures of deer in the 150” ranger and my neighbor killed on 2 years ago.
At the end of the day if I can kill a mature bucks of any size on my home place I’m happy!
I hope this bucks hangs around a few more weeks, he’s most likely 4.5 and will score about 118, I feel like the other 9 is most likely dead since I haven’t seen him since Sept 29.
He would have been closer to 130”
And there is also a chance a new stud will show up any day!
I’ll post some pics of bucks over the years I’ve had on camera and the few that have been killed.
