Fall 2016

deer slam. This started with his 195
3/8-inch low-fenced whitetail, and then
progressed to his West Texas mule deer
that sports lots of character, and finally
culminated with his giant free-range elk
taken in 2015 in the Glass Mountains.
All three hunts were hosted by Wildlife
Systems, Inc.
WSI offers four-day packages for mule deer hunts on three
different properties in the Trans-Pecos Region. Long-term
success rates on these hunts run 80 percent – 90 percent, with
hunters typically seeing 10 – 20 bucks per day.
This is big, unspoiled country and most hunting action is
glassing the scenic vistas, looking for a buck of choice, and
then planning a stalk. For those hunters who prefer not to hunt
high altitudes, we have good news: the elevations here are
only about 4,500’ – 5,000’. Nice comfortable camps offer a
WSI client an opportunity to relax at day’s end, after they have
enjoyed a great meal prepared by one of our chefs.
