! this is a fallacy as any wild-
,, . ., ,, I life biologist will tell you.
You should get vour appuca- __
tkm in to the (lame and Fish1 The" has bfen a fav*n
Commission right away if you cr°P lhis -vear not on,y in the
jwant a permit to shoot antelope
"this fall.
Just write to the chief clerk
and tell him you want an ap-
plication blank.
Your application must be back
4n the Austin office by Sept. 1.
IA public drawing then will be
held and permits issued for the
.killing of either a buck or doe
antelope, depending on what
you want and the area in which
you hunt.
This year there are three
hunts instead of two, set for
the Trans Pecos area, common-
ly known as West of the Pecos.
Each hunt is of three days dura-
tion. There are two hunts in the
Panhandle .
Last year there were plenty
of permits for the Trans-Pecos
area, but a drawing had to be
held for the Panhandle area.
After your name has been
drawn you are assigned to an
area for the hunt. The
owner can charge you as much
as $60 for a buck and $40 for
a doe. In some instances, par-
Trans-Pecos but other areas, too.
There was a good carry-over on
deer from last season, so hunt-
ing should be exceptionally
good.
Plan lour Hunt Early
This word of warning also
should be given those who plan
a big game hum. Get your rifle
ready.
There is nothing more im-
portant to a hunt than having
an accurate rifle and knowing
where it will hit. You can spend
a hundred dollars for a lease,
buy a wagon load of groceries
and have pleasant companions.
But, if you can’t hit the side of
a barn, simply because you
didn’t check your gun. you’ve
tossed away a lot of good mon-
ey.
I think more deer are missed
because of this one oversight
than all other reasons combined.
Many hunters borrow guns or
,a“j!rent them Naturally some just
can’t afford to own a deer rifle.
Others don’t want to be bother-
ed with them There are thou-
sands, however, who do have
That doesn’t mean that you can
mix brands and get good re-
sults.
For instance, if you are shoot-
ing a 3006 and decide upon a
180 grain load, which is a
pretty good all-around piece of
fodder, study on your table and
learn where that bullet will hit
at mid-range, at 100 yards, 150
and 200, even up to 400 yards.
Get this in your head. Then take
the gun to the range and put it
through the hoops.
Try it first with a rest. Learn
to squeeze the trigger instead
of jerking it. Try to get where
you pay no attention to the re-
coil. After all, the average rifle
has much less kick than a high-
speed 12 gauge shot gun cart-
ridge.
If you are prone to flinch,
learn to overcome this and your
accuracy will be greatly im-
proved. Of course in actual
hunting you have little oppor-
tunity to worry about recoil. A
buck jumps, you cut down on
him and it’s all over. You
haven’t felt the recoil at all. If
you have mastered your gun.
you will have venison in the
pot.
This information is rudimen-
tary to most who will read it.
There are many persons, how-
ever, who’ll go afield this year
for the first time. Some hunters
■ -W*--— • ♦
to study their guns and their
performances.
Even some of the old-timers
have been so busy fishing dur-
ing the year that they, too, have
neglected to check their guns.
Don’t be among those this
year who gets a kick in the
pants, or a shirt tail cut off for
missing a big buck.

seeding alfalfa, says E. M. Trew,
extension pasture specialist. He
reports that some 300,000 acres
of Texas cropland Is planted to
the perennial legume and be-

State could use alfalfa to advan

; Many West Texas ranchers,
because they have been subject
to heavy drouths and feed short-
ages. feel they are entitled to a
hunting fee for killing the ante-
lope. This fee, is strictly up to
the land owner. The legislature
passed a law making it possible
for him to collect such a fee.
where those guns shoot.
Perhaps the best shooters are
those who have been using the
same rifle for years. They know
exactly where it will hit, and
they take the time to keep it
clean and keep the sights lined'
up.

dling a deer rifle, right now is

The antelope season will open
this year Oct. 1. with staggered
hunts through Oct. 20.
Deer-Quail Seasons Overlap
Trans-Pecos deer hunters will
find a new season this year,
which they may like better. It
will be Dec. 1 to 8 inclusive.
The quail season begins Dec. 1.
This means a hunter may get
his mule deer and some blue
quail on the same hunt.
Since you must have a lease,
or hunt by the day basis, you
might want to have an under-
standing w’ith the landowner re-
garding the hunting of birds
before you close the deal. Some
ranchers don’t like to have their

All ammunition is good, much
better than the average shooter.
