tthrasher Report post Posted January 30, 2005 The deer and pig hunt was fun, but I had lots of problems with smugglers and illegals. Three hunts in total were effected by groups migrating north for work or to drop drugs. This is a really big problem and the public and private lands are a reck as a result. Best bucks were seen in 34B but the density seemed very low. I spent several days in 36B as planed and saw tons of deer but the quality seemed to be low. I guess it is a trade off, deer density or deer size. Can't have both I guess. My best spot was closer to the road than I had hoped. No need to backpack in, seems as though there were deer almost every place we went, and the deeper we went the more mexicans we saw . I Never did find the trophy I was looking for, but if it were easy it wouldn't be called hunting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted January 30, 2005 in my hunt november hut we had the same thing. in some places we saw a lot of deer but very few decent size bucks, the biggest buck i was maybe 65-70 inch 3x3. my dad saw 2 that were beteen 80-90. and a guy we were with killed a 90+. as far as actualy seeing ilegals, we only saw 11, maybe this is why i plan on working for the Border Patrol??
