I'm going in November, here in Texas, haven't hunted deer in over 25
years. Grandson has a free lease with lots of deer. Texas is allowing
two bucks and three does this year or just take five does. Can't eat
antlers so I'm looking for does.

I can remember when Texas allowed only bucks, no does, and any of them
were hard to find in East and SE Texas. I see deer alongside the roads
around here in broad daylight, carcasses also. Lots of buzzards floating
around all the time, you can nearly always tell where a deer was hit by
a vehicle by the circling buzzards. I nearly ran over a coyote the other
day on the street I live on.

You would think that with over 5 million people living in this area
there would be nothing wild left. We deer tracks behind our house nearly
every morning. Alas, no stands here.
