An open spot or two, or getting a group of around 4 together, it makes no difference to me. Prefer mule deer only country. I'm not about having to have a monster, but more about spending a week or two (and then I'm GONE off your land) in country that I miss. Far west Texas or panhandle. Very flexible on accommodations. Time and ability to come talk to you and see what you'd prefer. PM would be the best way to contact. Thanks in advance.

what's your budget? what accommodations are needed?
My BIL has some contacts in the panhandle that I can get him to check on.

My BIL has some contacts in the panhandle that I can get him to check on. I can camp in a tent with no water or electricity (although I am getting pretty old for 2 weeks of that), or get a motel room if a town is close, or make do with any structure. Budget-wise I am resigned to paying for what mule deer are currently going for. I'm sure I'll get an education on $. The bigger the better as far as acreage. As stated, I can get a small group together if a place doesn't already have a group on it. 'Prefer working as a team, sharing info and areas (as opposed to "This is your stand/pasture and that's what you hunt for 2 weeks.") I do appreciate you checking for me!

my BIL checked with his most of his contacts, mostly all full or shot out or quail hunters have overtaken ... still waiting on a few others, but no cigars so far.
I am stunned at the $$$ for quail hunting involved and ruined some of the places

Hey, thanks to you and your BIL for checking! I appreciate the help. I realize it's a needle in a haystack situation. I'll "endeavor to persevere." What I lack in intelligence, I make up for with tenacity. The hunt continues.

I am stunned at the $$$ for quail hunting involved and ruined some of the places Quail hunters see just the opposite, deer hunters hunting til end of February and locking out the quail hunters. Not that much available ground left to run bird dogs in Texas.

Hi Creekrunner - I joined the forum to find a group of responsible hunters interested in the same as the above. I'll try to PM you (if it'll let me).

I’d be willing to join your group if you’re needing some people. Mid 50s, drama free. Own my own place in the hill country, but would love to hunt some mule deer

I've talked to a couple of great guys on here that have contacted me about this thread, and I've got a couple of feelers out, but nothing "fitting like a glove" just yet. Thanks for bumping it up fellas. It's nothing that has to happen, this year or the next, but it doesn't hurt to keep searching.
