I'm not familiar with Old Hospital Road, but I'll look it up.


If you want some friendly advice, get a haircut and take a bath. You wouldn't get hassled so much.

I haven't heard about nilgai. My understanding is that Nilgai are mostly east of highway 281. This place is well west of there. But of course I can be wrong. Hopefully I'm wrong. Haha

Rio Grande/Roma area seems a bit west of where you typically see Nilgai that have broken out of HF places. Raymondville area has many on surrounding properties.

That's always been my understanding. The farthest west I've heard of Nilgai in low fence is in Palito Blanco in Jim Wells County.

Hey Luke,

There are some Nilgai out there. You'll find them on the high fenced ranches that have trophy deer hunts. They are on 490 West, and seen them off of West 2295. You won't find any on the fenced ranches.


MAGA!

I got to meet Dr. Gary Schwartz this evening at one of the Luby's in Mcallen. He was really nice. He actually pulled some of my teeth when I was a kid.

Saw this deer after brought into Los Cazadores, 6-7 years ago I believe. Very nice buck, think it grossed 200"+.

He was really cool. He seemed really excited to be recognized.

It's used for tracking air traffic across the border, and I believe assists in ground traffic as well.

It's called Tethered Aerostat Radar System. It belongs to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.
