here in texas the game wardens do not have a sense of humor. we had heard of new rules in the 1 buck county we were hunting. several people told us they had heard that you could kill a doe the first week of the season without a permit.i had never heard this. i found the game warden and asked him. he said you could indeed kill a doe the first week only. i still did not believe this because it was not anywhere in the rule book.the first day of hunting the game warden showed up and asked if we had killed anything. we said no but he said he felt like we had killed a doe or two. he denied ever telling us it was ok.we ne4ver did kill a doe and passed this info along to the other hunters
i am a retired deputy sheriff and knew he was up to something.he got mad when i confronted him with what he said and he started to tell us he could write us up for other things. we shut up and i wrote my letter to the texas parks ans wildlife. we never had any more problems but you have no idea who you can believe. just go by the rules in the handbook.
