Whether you're after the elusive mule deer, the challenge of black-tailed deer, or the thrill of wild hog hunting, we've got you covered. Grab your gear and let's hit the blinds for a full day of top-notch hunting action.

Inside the Hunt

Here's the lowdown on what to expect: You're looking at two solid 3-4 hour sessions, giving you plenty of time to settle in, track your game, and make your move. We use a standard feeder setup, which means you'll need to be on your A-game to outsmart these savvy Texas critters. Morning hunts kick off an hour before the sun peeks over the horizon - perfect for those who love the pre-dawn stillness and the first light action. Night owls, we've got you covered too. Evening hunts start at 6:15 PM and run until about 10 PM, offering a whole different set of challenges and opportunities. With groups limited to 2-4 hunters, you'll have all the space you need to work your magic without tripping over each other.

Tracking Tips & Terrain

Let's talk strategy. We're set up with blinds strategically placed near feeders, but don't think for a second that means easy pickings. These Texas animals are smart, and they've seen it all before. You'll need to be patient, quiet, and ready to capitalize on split-second opportunities. Our blinds are designed to give you a good field of view while keeping you hidden, but it's up to you to read the wind, anticipate movement patterns, and make the shot count. The terrain varies, from open grasslands where mule deer like to graze, to more wooded areas where you might catch a black-tailed deer slipping through the shadows. And let's not forget the wild hogs - these guys can pop up anywhere, so stay alert. Pro tip: Bring a good pair of binoculars and a rangefinder. In this terrain, being able to spot and accurately judge distance can make all the difference between a story about the one that got away and a successful harvest.

Target Game Breakdown

Mule Deer: These big-eared beauties are a favorite among Texas hunters. Known for their impressive racks and keen senses, mule deer offer a real challenge. They're most active during dawn and dusk, so our morning and evening hunts are perfectly timed. Look for them in open areas near cover, where they can quickly retreat if they sense danger. Mule deer are known for their distinctive bouncing gait when alarmed - a sight to behold, but hopefully not one you'll see as they bound away from your position!

Black-tailed Deer: A subspecies of mule deer, black-tailed deer are slightly smaller but no less challenging. They prefer more wooded areas and are masters of stealth. These deer are creatures of habit, often using the same trails repeatedly, which can work to your advantage if you're observant. During the rut, typically in November, bucks become more active and less cautious, potentially offering better hunting opportunities. Keep an eye out for their distinctive black-tipped tails - a telltale sign you've spotted your quarry.

Wild Hog: Now, here's where things can get really exciting. Wild hogs are smart, tough, and always on the move. They're not native to Texas, but they've made themselves right at home, causing significant damage to crops and native ecosystems. That means hunting them is not just thrilling, it's also good for the environment. These animals can appear at any time of day or night, so stay vigilant. They have an excellent sense of smell, so playing the wind is crucial. A group of hogs is called a sounder, and stumbling upon one can lead to some fast-paced action. Remember, a well-placed shot is important with these thick-skinned creatures.
