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.

The hunter tagged it as San Saba County. Mills county is under AR's with one 13" and over buck and SS county is not under AR's. As a note the hunter did not shoot a buck in Mills that year or in the years since that time.

We had a deer shot in Mills county a few years ago and crossed the Colorado river into San Saba county before succumbing to his injury. Go figure how to tag that one. Tough call but I personally would have listed Mills County on the tag. its were the deer grew up You can take the deer out of the county but you can't take the county out of the deer. -Mickey

One from each county. 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

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

I would say: were deer is shot. good question. my posts are cheap. this is a good thread.

How can I tell what county I'm hunting in? I am on the border of navarro and freestone, but not sure which one to mark on the deer tag. We drive a ways on a dirt road to get where I hunt where there are no signs. Is there a website I can go to that has like a Google Earth view but shows the county lines on it? 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.

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.

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?
