While I have been dying for years now to make a west Texas hunt, yall would probably be to expensive. How far is it from Lafayette? And possibly a 1000 but thats pushing it.

From my experience, which is pretty damn extensive as far as La goes, 1000 is the least you're going to spend for a good lease. You can spend a hell of a lot more then that and still get a turd. IMHO, your best bet is to find some guys to go in with you, find some acreage to lease and go it alone. It's a LOT of work and it's going to take 4-5 years before your shite's together, but it's def the best way to go.

West Tx has small deer but plenty of them. South Tx has less deer, on low fence ranches, but with the rain this summer our mature bucks are 250# plus.

You're right, $1000 won't get it done but you should be able to find something in Central/North La for that.

I live in Lafayette, it's 7 hours to my place but it's me and 2 other guys so the herd is carefully managed and we have some monsters - $5k a gun. If any LSU fan is interested you can have first shot before I put it out to a guide/broker. We need to shoot 4-6 trophies and 10-15 mgt bucks per season.
