That was a hard, amagazing hunt! I've never worked harder for a deer in Texas. Weather swings are crazy. If solitude is what you need then this hunt is what you need! Tell use more, do you have pictures? I wasn't drawn but will apply every year until I am. Did yall apply as a group or individual?

I have a hunt at matador in the next couple of weeks. What area do you recommend for WT? Is a 4 WD vehicle absolutely necessary? Don't have 4 WD but could probably borrow one if absolutely needed. Trying to get geared up so any help would be appreciated.

Trying to get geared up so any help would be appreciated. The eastern pastures seemed to be better for a lot of folks for whitetail, although I didn't hunt in those. Dogleg pasture is not very big, but some nice bucks have been taken there. I would say that in most places, you probably don't need 4 wheel drive. The problem is the really fine sand can get soft in spots. At least bring a come-along and some chain or strap. If you do get stuck, the staff won't pull you out and you will have to get a tow truck. Also, cell service is very spotty, so you might have a long walk. Good luck!

Trying to get geared up so any help would be appreciated. Was out there 12-3 quail hunting and I can say 4wd is needed for the south fencelines of West Aermotor, East Aermotor, and South Middle. Got a little tricky in a couple locations just before dark!
Hunt 'em if you got 'em! They may not be here next year!

I drew a December mule deer tag at Matador WMA. Im pretty sure the compartments are drawn or assigned but there are only 10 tags and its 28,000 acres. If anyone has any info or suggestions please let me know..... Any reports? We did the Antlerless hunt last week and saw quite a few mulies but nothing I would call a shooter. What compartment did you draw?
