If you’re looking for a hunting hot spot, you’ve come to the right place. The Highland Lakes offers some world-class hunting opportunities from professionally managed ranches to great dove hunting.
The area has property owners and ranchers who are ahead of the curve when it comes to wildlife and habitat management. And that means good hunting for the sportsmen and women, whether for a weekend or the season.
Archery season runs Oct. 3-Nov. 6 for white-tailed deer. The general season is Nov. 7, 2015-Jan. 3, 2016. There’s also a late antlerless and spike season from Jan. 4-Jan. 17, 2016.
While the regular dove season wrapped up Oct. 25, shotgunners have another opportunity at these winged rockets Dec. 18, 2015-Jan. 1, 2016.
And don’t forget hogs. You can hunt them year-round.
Check with local chambers of commerce, the agriculture extension offices and sporting goods stores for places to hunt.
