Golden Triangle............

[CrookedArrow]

Is it still all that and a can of holy moly??? There is at least one thread on here about a 200" monster from Maverick County. Use to if you were not hunting the Golden you were shooting small bucks.

BTW............I'm not referring to HF Golden Triangle bucks...low fence only.

Yes it is. People don't make it public. plenty of giants hitting the ground, people will never hear about. much less see in a contest, or magazine.

If it is not a closely guarded State secret.... What is the Golden Triangle?

Growing up, the term was used to describe the SE Texas area along the coast. Port Arthur, Beaumont, etc... That is a long way from Maverick County.

Broken J is correct lots of big deer taken down there and no one ever knows about it. Nothing compares to the amount and size of the deer In the GT.

A lot of it is getting fenced up. Getting to be less and less truly low fence. Will be interesting to see how much higher $$ low fence deer hunting goes for before its all fenced.

The Golden Triangle is an irregular triangle-shaped area generally defined by a line east from Eagle Pass and south of Highway 57, to Interstate 35 south through Cotulla to Laredo with the western boundary being the Rio Grande River. Horace Gore coined the phrase “Golden Triangle,” and described the area 20 years ago in an article for The Journal about the trophy whitetails that are produced there. This area encompasses all or part of many counties including Maverick, Dimmit, Webb, La Salle, and Zavala counties. Many large bucks have been taken within this triangle or within close proximity of the above-mentioned boundaries. According to the Boone and Crockett (B&C) record book, Webb and Dimmit counties are recognized as two of the top trophy producing areas for white-tailed deer in Texas.
