We have a couple acres in the back so if they do start showing up I fully intend to hunt them. With a bow though. Just curious how big of a pile of corn to give before giving up on it.
Make sure it is legal to hunt there on small acreage - some counties do not allow it depending upon acreage size. Subdivisions, neighborhoods and homeowner associations can be a different story when it comes to discharging a firearm, hunting with one or archery equipment.
Something to know before it's too late:
Restricted Areas in Counties
It is against the law to:
-hunt in a subdivision with lots 10 acres or less in an unincorporated area of a county if the commissioners court, by order, prohibits the discharge of a firearm or the use of archery equipment in such subdivisions. (Contact local county clerk and ask about 235.022, Local Government Code.)
-hunt on any area named as a wildlife sanctuary, nesting, or propagation area.
-hunt anywhere that hunting has been prohibited by county or city ordinance.
