    Hunting near El Paso, TX

    All the mountains east of hueco are state land. Get some paper maps and use something like OnX or Western Hunting maps. Public land is sprinkled through the area. Stay off military land and private and you should be fine. Dove and rabbit are mostly what you'll see. Mulies are around during years...

    New Mexico Javelina

    They're all over. Down here by Hueco Tanks there are quite a few. Sometimes the Oryx venture this far south. Just look for the Nopales that have been chomped on and get your distress call out. Study what their range is and what they eat. Then look for those good pockets with plenty of forage.

    Did you shoot your first deer with open sights?

    Took my uncle for his first ever deer hunt in January for a late season hunt. He uses a 30-30 from his father in law with only iron sites. He took a doe and a spike, both good shots around 80 yards. Nice trip for his first deer ever.

    Bird lovers watch in horror as hunter guns down Tundra swan that rarely appears in Florida

    good lord. I'm a bird hunter as well, but damn. There's always a time and place. I've heard guys hunt and eat swans. Do they really taste that good? I won't kill it unless i'm going to eat it, and swans don't look tasty to me....lol

    Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge hogs

    I did spot and stalk and I also have a small deployable blind. Do yourself a favor, stay in a hotel. Pack some coolers. I quartered it and finished up at home. Tip: make sure the meat is as clean as possible, leave in the coolers and drain water daily and add new ice on top. I do this for about...

    Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge hogs

    So, I recommend just spend the entire day out there. Scout beforehand if possible. There are a couple wlalking trails. Stay on those until you see some good game trails. This is still a challenging hunt, but a great way to work on spot and stalk. Take your mud boots (It's a swamp) unless it's...

    Trinity River National Wildlife Refuge hogs

    I only hunted for 2 days and got a hog. There are more hogs than deer. Setup on the far side near the private property that encroaches the area. The guy has a deer feeder there. You should be able to catch the deer going there at dusk. You have to do late hunts because you're not allowed in...

    First hand Covid symptoms

    Got it for the first time ever 2 weeks ago. My three year record finally broken. I woke up with cold shivers and had what felt like allergies for about 2 days. Quarantined from the wife and kept her clear. No loss of taste or smell and seemed very mild. I smoke cigars, drink scotch and bourbon...
