I made two trips to Twin Buttes this year. The first was a scouting trip. I hiked to the very back of unit 1, and it looked promising because the vegetation changes from desert to pecan and other trees with lots of shade and water. I wanted to cross onto the island in the concho river, but it was impassable without waders.
On my second trip, I hunted one of the walk-in units. On my second day a buck presented a perfect shot, except that it was out of range for me (crossbow) at 55 yards. I also saw a coyote, a fox, and several skunks that day.
I would have stayed longer, but the camping situation was very sketchy. I was camping near the boat ramp in unit 7, and pickups were driving in, meeting up, and leaving all day and even into the night. During my second day, while hunting, someome broke into my tent and stole a lantern. So, I reluctantly packed up my stuff and headed home early.
Dang Tex, sorry to hear about the thief. At least it was just a lantern, but still sucks. Would be nice to just enjoy the experience without worrying about stuff like this happening. Anyway, thanks for passing on the info. I am interested in checking out this property also, but will have to wait until next year unfortunately.
