Texas has some great deer. The only problem is they don't have very good mass, unless they are raised in a 20 by 20 pen. Bottom line is northern deer are larger than southern deer. There are more deer in the south than in the north. A southern deer is just as wary as a northern deer, unless they were raised in a 20 by 20 pen. Southern deer taste just as good as northern deer, unless they were raised in a 20 by 20 pen, then they are better. I love chasing the elusive southern White-tailed deer, even if I'm just an illiterate southern redneck. Guess what B&C, there are some really great literate people down here in the south that love to hunt deer ethically and legally. Come on back home and find out.
What's all this "20 by 20 pen" stuff? No mass unless they're pen raised? What gave you that idea?
Here are a few Texas bucks that were taken off "low-fence" ranches.

The 238" buck is 10 inches bigger than any of the "high-fence" bucks last year.
