Good luck. I'd love to hunt old Mexico but can't work up the nerve.

Buddy of mine went down there a novice; 'came back 3 years later a barely tolerable whitetail "expert".

Headed down on Thursday morning to get the guns across and staying for 4 days. Looking forward to it as we have seen some great deer on the trail cams.

You couldn't pay me to cross that river. Good luck!

I know there's many horror stories but on flip side of that I know 2 different groups that been hunting there over 20 yrs with zero issues....except for huge bucks. Course they never go to any town....straight across to ranch, hunt and straight back to US.....they get treated like kings on their ranches. Workers there bend over backwards for em.

Been to Mexico to many times to count, dozens. To unstable, b est to have liaison meet you and drive you in. From what i understand the ranches have also suffered. Not being able to maintain deer numbers, from lack of pumping in water. Depending on where your goung. Coahuila or Tamaulipas.
