Javelina'sssss

[JVasquez]

Webb county we are covered up with the little pests at the deer feeders. Will they keep the deer away?

[bowhunterchris]

I can come help you with your "problem". But to answer your question, yes, they chase the deer away.

[Bowshark]

Yes!

[Stroke]

Yes, they will screw up your hunt in a hurry. Especially if you have a nice 12 eating protein as you wait for a shot...

[aggie_archer]

We have them were we hunt, covered in them. And YES they will run deer off and ruin a hunt!

[Mayhem]

Hate them. Only remedy is a feeder pen.

[SmTx]

Javelinas, hogs, turkeys, they all suck when you're trying to deer hunt.

[Mary]

Shoot your limit of two, then wear them out with a sling shot.

Tamales!!!!!!!

[Target-panic]

Tamales!!!!!!!

They make great tamales!!!!! I'll take 2.

We got ALOT at our place in Catarina. Take some arrows with blunts to the blind.

I love hunting those things, sitting in a blind is boring, but stalking them is a kick. I wish you could take more then two. We run out of meat in no time. They make good summer sausage also. In fact I would rather hunt them then deer, for the most part.

My first TBH hunt was a Javi hunt almost 3 years ago. They are a blast to stalk on foot with a bow. I'm not sure I'd enjoy hunting them under a feeder nearly as much, but I've never tried it.

I'd pen them and the hogs out... or resort to a slingshot.

Oh yes, they will run your deer away. They will go after the deer under the feeder, my game cam took a picture of one chasing a doe around the feeder. The only thing that can battle those little pests are pigs, but pigs also run deer away from feeders.

Thanks I had a good feeling they were hurting us. I'm watching a dozen of them now as I type. I shot one yesterday then had another group come out so I shot my 2nd one head down facing me in between the eyes. Gonna make good a cool Euro mount with the arrow attached as found.
