Texas Pronghorns #17543765 08/23/22 Joined: Oct 2010 Posts: 8,762 Central, Texas L LBP OP Campfire Outfitter OP LBP Campfire Outfitter L Joined: Oct 2010 Posts: 8,762 Central, Texas I found a landowner tag for a ranch in Deaf Smith county near the New Mexico line. I’m excited to go. I haven’t hunted a pronghorn buck since 2005. The landowner I got the tag from said there are some great goats on the ranch, I’m going to find out. Anyone else hunting Texas antelope this year? Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have. The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming. Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

It scored 78-2/8 if I remember correctly. They were rutting hard and I saw more bucks than I could shake a stick at. I watch two bucks fighting through a goat fence. We found my buck shortly before noon and the 7MM SAUM finished the job. I could see the Border Patrol checkpoint from where I shot him. Last edited by DubThomas; 08/25/22.

Your best bet is to google pronghorn huts in the states you would hunt in. Then ask for references and choose one. I am going to CO in early Oct. Two man hunt with guide, lodging and meals a little over $8,000, we will have to buy a non res hunting license when we get there the outfitter provided the landowner antelope tags.

No Sir, landowners get permits based upon how much land they own and the annual antelope census done by Texas Parks and Wildlife. The landowners can use the permits, sell them, whatever they decide to do with them. Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.

I saw enough deer to keep it interesting (quite a few mule deer does), but not enough to keep me there. Seriously, I couldn't glass in any direction, at any time, without seeing antelope. After 2.5 days I packed up and moved further east to Optima. Saw lot of deer there, passed up a number of smallish whitetail bucks but never saw one I wanted to shoot.

Anyone else hunting Texas antelope this year? My dad owned a section just south of there a couple of miles from the state line for a while. The state would offer some landowner tags every two or three years. I kept meaning to get one of the tags, but never did before he sold that place. My dad didn't seem to like them when he owned that place. Evidently antelope love bindweed and would poop the seeds out into his wheat pasture. Every once in awhile, someone will see an elk or a black bear in that country coming off the caprock to the west of there in New Mexico. When it happens, that gives the farmers at the coffee shop something to talk about for a few months.

Texas and New Mexico have guaranteed land owner tags, all you have to do is find one. Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.

My first (and only) pronghorn. Theres a wheat field halfway between Vega and Adrian on the north side of I40 that has a herd of pronghorn in it RIGHT now. They've been in that small chunk of dirt for atleast 15 years and have never once moved. Lifetime member: Backcountry Hunters and Anglers & Wild Sheep Foundation

We ended up finding three landowner tags all on different ranches in different countries. I’ll be hunting with my oldest son, and daughter in law. This will be her first pronghorn. She’s also 16 weeks pregnant so my second grandchild will be there 😂. We’re all looking forward to the hunts. Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man.
