We went hunting this last week at Fork Clark Springs in Bracketville. I had been told about this hunt a few years ago but things just haven't lined up to go. Well this year we finally made time to go and we're looking forward to it.

Pros:
-the room we stayed in on Fort Clark was clean and comfortable. The only down side was my TV didn't work so I couldn't watch the Cowboys! Not a super huge deal.
-food in Bracketville was pretty good
-found an exceptional place to eat in Del Rio one night, Molcajates Restaurant. Their green sauce is the best I've ever had.
-the drive from Rocksprings to Bracketville is very scenic.
-very affordable
-lots of deer around the houses and golf course.

Cons:
-when trying to book the hunt they don't share a lot of information. You will need to read all the guidelines and rules to really gain much information.
-Matt the guy "in-charge" makes the group of hunters feel like they are an inconvenience to him the morning of the hunt.
-Our first morning set we were told where our blinds and feeders were, he let us know the deer didn't come when the feeder went off so just wait. Our problem was our feeders never went off. That's right two different blinds with two different feeders never went off. We sat for 5 hours and never saw more than a B&C Cardinal. No big deal stuff like that happens. Upon returning to the lodging area we talked with several other groups. Their feeders went off but they saw no animals. So we decided to sit in a different location. Both our feeders went off at those stands but only 1 spike was seen. Same results for the other groups, little to no animals were seen.

Conclusion:
I know the old adage you get what you pay for but I was just really hoping for a great place to go shoot some axis meat for the foreseeable future. Maybe if you go really early in the hunting season you will see more animals because there are alot of them on the golf course and around houses. However, we burned a lot of fuel to not see anything but. WT spike. Before I went on this hunt I attempted to do some research on this forum and couldn't find much. This post is not to bash FCS but rather share my findings with others who might be looking into the hunt. I'm also hoping to hear if others have shared this type of experience or have had different outcomes.

Also, I'm looking for some affordable axis doe hunts. Lodging and meals do not have to be included.

thanks for sharing. Not there but I've been on a few losers and way too many "you shoulda been here yesterday" hunts
