browtine Report post Posted January 5, 2018 I grew up hunting the tortilitas 37a and from Christmas to about second week in Jan was always great. That was 20 yrs ago though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonecollector777 Report post Posted January 8, 2018 Was in 23 yesterday saw 35 deer. 5 groups of does with no bucks and a lone 2x3. Hard for them to want to rut when it's 70 degrees out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G_E_E Report post Posted January 9, 2018 Area around 3 points still has a few smaller bucks together. One decent 3x3 was scraping but also had 2 other bucks with him and does. One big wide wounded buck(couldn't tell if it was from a shot or fight) was solo. Made a failed stalk on a nice broken buck, his right side was a nice 4 and left side was broken down to a 2. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
