Leave my good old Texans alone!

You are however right in that they like it convenient. Deer hunting in Texas means generally shooting them at an automatic feeder. It's timed, so that you go there just before it throws, then the deer come within 5 minutes and get shot. On top of it, the feeders are usually placed only 60 yards away from the stand, which does not make for very difficult shooting. Texas has its share of crack shots, of course, but many, especially older guys, have never done a different kind of hunting. Partly its also because of terrain: The Hill Country, as well as Southern Texas is very thick brushland, often you do not even have a clearing that's wider then 60 yards (apart from open pastures). It's of course different in beanfield country or out in the Rockies. I know Montana, by the way, almost ended up buying a ranch in the Bitterroot Valley.





I was in Texas over the holidays this past year..went out with my brother-in-law..helped him set up his feeders, hides, clear shooting lanes, etc...and yes, that is the impression I got..thought to myself after seeing how things are done there, no wonder people on web sites think someone is full of BS if this is all they have ever known..I am sure those that have only hunted that way, when hearing someone shooting a antelope at 250, 300 or more yards think the guy is nuts...each to their own, but I'll take Montana and the way most of the hunting is done up here over that style any day of the week..but again, whatever makes you happy...
