More deer than prior years. Mostly does and fawns however I used to have large numbers of hogs at my feeders nightly over the last 6 years. Saw a decent hog during archery and of course I missed with my crossbow. Only seeing a single now and then on camera. See some droppings and rooting occasionally however no shooting opportunities. We always harvested a couple during deer season. Never have much hunting pressure outside of deer season so not thinking there shot out. I'm in Dickens county any thoughts as to lack of availability??

I've seen very few in Webb county and none on the places in Brazos, Robertson or Falls county. We did take a bunch out in Zavala county.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

Seen fewer in Milam County too. Just not got pictures of a few this past week. We normally see them throughout deer season. Almost none though this year. Not complaining about that though.

Been seeing an increase in Falls and Robertson county. Put a small hog trap out in Robertson this week and plan on doing some night hunting.

As far as I know, they are all in the woodline nearest I-20 and they feed just off the shoulder every night.
At least from Hutchins on East, to the end of their range.

We are covered up with hogs in Lee county, shot 15 this year in deer season. Due to the pressure they are almost completely nocturnal now but once things settle down in a few weeks I have one stand in particular that it’s almost guaranteed to see pigs right before dark.

I have one bunch of them and scattered boars. I see them on a regular basis but have only shot one. But, gotta agree that there aren’t as many. I figure that means coyotes get the young.
Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.

Too many are alive and well in Colorado Co.
If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.

I'm in Dickens county too and they disappeared for about for about a month at the start of gun season. Starting to see a few again on camera and I can't blame it on acorns because as far as I know theres not an oak tree for miles.
That's my $.02. Here's you're change!!

+1, they started showing up where I hunt, NW Burnet county, last weekend. We had only heard them before that. Killed a piglet and sow. 14 piglets and 2 sows came in. Could have shot more piglets but did not want to waste any more 30-06 bullets. I was hunting a buck and axis so did not carry 22 mag which I would have emptied. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/12/full-1454-213025-20191226_180310.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/12/full-1454-213026-20191226_180524.jpg)

They are on the camera at night but I have not seen one in daylight since season opener. Weird year.
