Does anyone have first hand knowledge of a good guide/lodge for mule deer in Texas? As I understand it, they are in the panhandle.
 
Jim Breck Bean - High West Outfitters Has some good hunting
 
DESERT SAFARIS LLC
 
West Texas Hunt Organization. Lots of MD south of I 10 as well. More desert mule deer. Elk as well, free range.

Gee pilar, after seeing the aoudad in your avatar I should have asked for your recommendation for them.
 
@AustinL Austin has some family land up that way. He might know someone.
 
A friend of mine owns and operates Final Descent outfitters out of Lubbock. They are primarily a goose/crane outfitters but they do offer limited mule deer hunts in the Sandhills west of Lubbock. Plenty of mule deer up further north in the panhandle as well or out in south west tx. Budget, hunt style and expectations may dictate what hunts are the best fit for you

I can also recommend Ocotillo Hunt Club out in far west TX

Fair questions AustinL...thanks for asking.

I am looking for a quality hunt and I am willing to pay for it. I want a really good deer rather than one that is "representative". Walking is not a problem so would prefer stalking rather than sitting in a blind all day but will do whatever is needed for a good deer. Good food is necessary but doesn't have to be fancy. Alcohol is not important. The accommodations on the Ocotillo Hunt Cub website would certainly meet my expectations, or I can stay at a Hampton Inn in town. It mostly needs to be clean.

My expectations for the guide/PH is the same as anywhere I hunt or fish. That they find what I am hunting for while not irritating the shit out of me.
 
Based on your reply I would definitely reach out to the guys at Ocotillio

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl

Hey Steve, This is Steve Washington we met at KMG last year. I am interested in your Winchester. Would love to speak with you about it. I work third shift and I cannot take a phone with me to work. Let me know a good time to call during one of your mornings. My phone is [redacted]. Live in Florida so I have to account for the time difference.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Good day, Slider.

Do you by any chance have any 500NE brass left that you are willing to part ways with?

Best regards,
Boela Bekker.
