I think Kerrville is 3 hours from houston, I stress "think" I never pay attention when heading out that way.

Kerrville is about 45 minutes from San Antonio

that has to be the same place my friend described he said it was between houston and san antonio.

Kerrville is WEST of San Antonio, as such it is not between Houston and SA. Kerrville is on I-10 about 50 to 60 miles West of San Antonio.

I think you could book a transatlantic fare long in advance and come over here on holiday and do an amazing amount of hunting for a lot less than a Scottish stag hunt.

Colorado has over the counter elk tags for <$500. Lots of Southern states have way more deer than they want or need. I think the limit in Alabama is one per day. There's literally millions of acres of public hunting across the US that is open to you for a minimal license fee. Plenty of cabins and campgrounds available at low prices in these areas too.

Guns? LOL, as has often been shown here most of us have more than enough to loan a visiting Brit. You wouldn't have to bring anything but appropriate clothing and boots.

Come try it sometime.

Storch,

One of my coworkers is a big time hunter and he says if you have the dough it's worth the trip. He also says that axis deer meet is some of the best you can get.

What I know about hunting wouldn't fill up a thimble but this guy knows his stuff for what it's worth.

well my friend is a marketing genious. last night my sons in law both shared in the venison and it looks like we have our five players on this lease. that venison from that axis deer is the best red meat I've ever eaten.

the lease is inexpensive the hunting license is cheap and we get to go to texas a few times a year to fill out freezers with fine quality lean meat.

it has all the makings of a $200.00 snapper supper.

Quick... do they have Axis Sheep?

If so, where can I get a live one?

*sweating and breathing hard in anticipation to reply*
