We are 1 month away from the start of the Texas hunting season, and in some locales season is anywhere from already open - just a couple weeks away.

What are y’all’s upcoming goals for this season?

Mine have changed gears a bit due to various circumstances, some trips have pushed off and others did not materialize and some are still up in the air, but that’s ok.

My goals for this upcoming season are as follows:

Both me and my wife kill PB bucks in Ohio, mine with my bow.

Kill my first big game animal with traditional archery gear.

Rattle up a shooter buck for my friend at his ranch.

Kill a big mule deer out in the desert.

Get in one or two good duck hunts.


What are some of yalls goals to each for the 2021-22 season ?

Kill 5 deer with my bow on my new place. Kill my biggest LF Hill Country whitetail. Do some cull/management hunts on friends ranches. Hope to draw a WMA archery or general season hunt this year. Mainly just to hunt as much as I can..as in everyday if possible.

See the 100th pig die on my property since I've owned it. 'Doesn't have to be at my hand. 38 to go.

To go hunting with friends and have a great time.

Hopefully another handgun deer and gonna leave the 22 rifle home and handgun hunt squirrels be tickled pink if if I got 3 in one trip. A pig or deer with 500jrh haven't bloodied that gun yet. A few ducks on the creek and I will be good.

Watch my granddaughter throw a log in the fire pit at deer camp and see that smile she gets

It don't get no better. Angels in camp.

1) 11 yo daughter shoots her first animal/deer
2) 8 yo daughter shoots her first animal (javelina or rabbit - her request)
3) 14 yo boy finally tags out on a mule deer (been chasing them for 3 years now). It’s a different ballgame when out on a stalk compared to sitting in a blind
4) Read Creekrunners write up about “coming down the mountain” with a loaded pack.

Two bucks for me , hoping to get on an a blackbuck this season too. Back down to Winnie for an early season teal hunt. Haven’t been since 2009

I will watch it unfold.

I have just been doomed to failure, or at least a sprained ankle.

Good luck to all the kiddos!

Kill a really good bull on my Wyoming elk hunt

Kill a decent mule deer in Colorado

Take a really nice whitetail on my new lease pasture

Maybe kill a few ducks

Have a good time

Kill a 300+ bull Elk in Wyoming

Kill a 13 inch plus spread on my East Texas Lease

Help my niece and nephew kill a nice buck during youth season

Have fun!!!!!

Have two trips scheduled for this hunting season. Oklahoma muzzleloader deer and a Nilgai trip in mid-November. The October trip is a long standing tradition with my little bro and a good friend. I don’t care if I kill a deer or not. A week of fun and camaraderie is my goal. I’d like to see brother kill a good buck. Would like to kill a mature Nilgai in November. It’s been a bucket list hunt for a while.

You don’t sprain ankles in Kennetreks. Leg might snap off at the knee but your ankle will be just fine

Shooting for 60 days out westly this season.

4 mule deer tags
Bear tag
Elk tag
2 Antelope tags if I have time

Just a simple one. Me or my son kill an East Texas buck on our place in Houston County.

you are gonna be a busy man.....even if you just hit 50% of that you will have a hell of a season

Good luck. I've never put that much thought into hunting. I just want the beer to be cold, campfire to be hot, plenty of good food and great camaraderie with friends. If I see something that gets me fired up enough to harvest, that's a bonus.

Extremely, this wouldnt be a good year for border lines to walk out. They will get rolled.

Only two of the tags are what I deem, serious. Rest are fun with friends and family.

Those are best type, priorities don't get lost. Good luck Sir.

1. Get my son on his first non cull/management buck hopefully on Ft Hood

2. Kill a nice mature buck on my lease

3. Possibly kill a big mature buck on Ft Hood

4. Wild card would be if my son or I get drawn for a hunt I’d love for us to get to hunt hunt some animals in areas we haven’t hunted.

Last but not least have fun and make memories.

Kill a living game animal

Hopefully get drawn for another Texas hunt this year.

Spend alot more time in the field this year. My new job should afford that. My 7 off in November starts the day before the opener.

Take all my deer with the 708 I'm having built. Hopefully it's ready by then.

Have a WT tag, extra WT doe tag, elk, bear, lion, wolf, and muzzy antelope here in Idaho

Kansas buck and doe tags

Wyoming WT buck, two WT doe, and a rifle antelope tag

Utah muzzleloader mule deer in the Paunsaugunt limited entry area

Hope for a lucky draw in Texas on a WMA
