The land owners to the north feed their place HEAVILY prior to the hunt and draw many of the deer off the WMA. I did shot a pig on our hunt, but was the only one to draw blood. Only 3 deer were seen the entire hunt on the whole place, and of course, all were way outside of bow range.

Saw lots of turkey and quail, though. Coyotes OVERRUN that place, with the approval of the manager, apparently. Will never go there again. Was glad I had earplugs for sleeping in the campground, they kayaiiiad all night lo
ng, seemingly within 100 yards of the campground.Last edited by JohnWayne86; 08-16-2018, 08:35 PM.

Originally posted by JohnWayne86 View PostI appreciate the heads up. This will be the 2nd time I’m fortunate enough to hunt Matador. I was there in 2016 and saw 2 big shooters a few small bucks and a couple of does. Some reason never saw a coyote or pig.Last edited by gonzotexan; 08-16-2018, 08:50 PM.

Today wore me out. I need a beer.
