[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1006717, member: 694"] JSC the Park's and Wildlife can tell you what ever they want. I have been on the same lease 6,000 acre's since 1963 we killed 130 to 150 deer a year off that lease every year for 20 year's. The Park's and Wildlife were giving us a stack of doe tag's as thick as the phone book. I have killed 100's of deer off that lease in 50 year's from a doe to a 12 point. It makes me sick to see where we have came from and where it has gone. It wasn't deer management that wiped us out but land management. The timber companies went from selective cutting to pine plantation. When the deforrestation caught up with us we had a die off and the herd has never recovered to native habitat level's. We kill maybe 35 a year now. The herd will never recover it can't the food is not here to support it. I was hunting here when they were still restocking and all you were allowed was a buck. The only mounted deer in my home was killed 1956 on the Nigton Road outside of Apple Spring's. And yes Nigton is a town you can look it up on a Texas map. You can't cut 2 million acres of native forrest and think pine plantation is going to support anywhere near the game. You can let the Park's and Wildlife blow smoke up your butt, I have lived from none to herd's running on my place to almost none again. It has gotten so bad the lease I have been on for 50 year's I didn't get on it this year, I am hunting South Texas this year and hopefully Georgia next. I have several protien and corn feeder's on my place with food plot's the camera's can go week's with crow's coon and squirrels only on them. This is on the same ground in the 70's and 80's you couldn't' walk a 150 yard's from the house without burning powder if you were hungry. [/QUOTE]
