Texas Exotic Hunting: High-Fence Thrills Year-Round

Hey there, fellow hunters! Ready for a wild ride through some of Texas' best exotic game? Burkett Hunting Outfitters has cooked up a high-fence hunting experience that'll knock your camo socks off. This ain't your average deer stand sit - we're talking 24/7 action, with the freedom to stalk your prey day or night. Whether you're after that trophy Axis or a majestic Fallow Deer, this 2-day hunt packs a punch that'll have you coming back for more.

Inside the Hunt

Picture this: You're deep in the heart of Texas, surrounded by prime hunting grounds teeming with exotic game. Our high-fence setup means you're guaranteed to encounter some impressive animals, but don't think for a second that makes it easy. These critters are smart, and they know how to use the terrain to their advantage. You'll need your wits about you and your tracking skills on point to bag that trophy. The best part? We're open all year round, except when the Whitetails are in season from November to January. That means you can scratch that hunting itch even in the off-season when other outfitters have hung up their boots.

Tracking Tips & Terrain

Alright, let's talk strategy. Our high-fence area is diverse, with everything from open grasslands to dense thickets. You'll want to keep your eyes peeled and move quiet as a mouse. These exotics have keen senses, so we recommend spot-and-stalk techniques for best results. Early mornings and late afternoons are prime time for movement, but remember - with our 24/7 hunting, you can also try your luck under the stars if you're feeling adventurous. Bring your best optics and a reliable rifle - you never know when that perfect shot opportunity will present itself. And don't worry if you're new to exotic hunting; our guides know these animals like the back of their hand and can give you the inside scoop on their habits and hideouts.

Target Game Breakdown

Let's dive into the stars of the show - our exotic game. First up, we've got the Axis Deer. These beauties are originally from India and are known for their spotted coats and impressive antlers. They're crafty and quick, so you'll need to be on your A-game. Axis are active year-round, which means you've always got a shot at bagging one.

Next, there's the Blackbuck Antelope. Don't let their size fool you - these spiral-horned speedsters can run circles around you if you're not careful. Males have those distinctive black and white coats that make for a stunning trophy. They're most active during cooler parts of the day, so plan your stalks accordingly.

Fallow Deer are another favorite. With their palmate antlers and varied coat colors (from white to dark brown), they're a unique prize. They're social animals, often found in small groups, which can make for an exciting stalk as you try to pick out the best buck without alerting the whole herd.

Last but not least, we've got High-Fence Whitetail. Now, these aren't your average backyard deer. Our high-fence Whitetails are selectively bred for impressive antlers and body size. They've got all the wily instincts of their free-range cousins, but with the potential for some truly jaw-dropping racks. Just remember, these boys are only in season from November to January, so plan accordingly if you're after one.

What to Pack for Success

Listen up, folks - coming prepared can make or break your hunt. First things first, don't forget your valid Texas hunting license. No license, no hunt - simple as that. As for gear, layer up! Texas weather can be unpredictable, so bring clothes you can easily add or remove. A good pair of boots is crucial - you'll be covering some serious ground. Bring your favorite rifle and plenty of ammo, but if you're flying in, no sweat - we can set you up with a rental. Don't skimp on the optics; a quality pair of binoculars and a reliable scope are worth their weight in gold out here. And hey, throw in some bug spray and sunscreen - the critters you're hunting aren't the only ones that'll be after you!

Why Hunters Keep Coming Back

I'll tell you what sets us apart - it's the freedom. Where else can you hunt exotic game 24/7? Want to try your luck under a full moon? Go for it. Prefer to rise with the sun and stalk through the morning mist? Be our guest. Our setup is perfect for those who want to maximize their time in the field without being tied to strict schedules. Plus, we welcome spectators at no extra charge (just lodging). Bring your buddy or your kid to share the experience - it's a great way to introduce new folks to the thrill of the hunt without breaking the bank.

Lodging and Grub

Now, I know what you're thinking - what about food and a place to crash? Well, we keep it simple here. Meals aren't included in the package, which means you've got the flexibility to do your own thing. Lots of hunters like to bring their own grub and make it a real outdoors experience. But if you're not the campfire cooking type, don't worry - there are plenty of great local spots to fuel up before and after your hunt. As for lodging, we've got options nearby for every budget. Just remember, any spectators you bring will need to cover their own lodging costs. It's all about keeping things flexible so you can customize your hunt just the way you like it.
