So, if someone were to lease a ranch that crossed two counties and each county was a one buck county, could you legally shoot two bucks? One from each county.

Tough call but I personally would have listed Mills County on the tag.

cheers its were the deer grew up flag


You can take the deer out of the county but you can't take the county out of the deer.

scratch that's a good question. years ago had taken buck during archery. called TPWD asked if could go hunt a different county, public land, that was a 2 buck county, but the compartment was a 1 buck only. was told yes, just make sure i used the 2 buck county tag. they keep changing laws, so would call TPWD flag

Yes. I had that exact situation for 11 years. 7000 acres with a little over half of it in Scurry county and the rest in Fisher county.

So if your deer stand is in scrurry county and feeder is in fisher confused do you tag the deer in the county it was shot in or shot from?

Google earth *does* show county lines; make sure "Borders and Labels" is checked on.

Use a gps to get the latitude and longitude of where your stands are and map them on google earth.

have U had chance ta talk ta landowner, or person in charge of lease. if property is in both counties, he may be paying Taxes in both counties. an bill would go to their address. As some one mentioned earlier, that might hold key. best wishes. Hope ya get it figured out. flag

The real question is what if your blind is in one county, you shoot a deer standing in the next county, and he runs off and dies in a third county. How do you tag it?
