I’ve hunted with several Texas outfitters, the most recent being an adventurous week with the fine folks at Richard Muennink’s Action Outdoor Adventures near Hondo in Medina County. Muennink, his wife Suzanne, and the entire staff exemplify the heart of Texas.
In fact, we found that spirit at every hunting outfit and range I’ve visited in the Lone Star State. Texans are passionate for wildlife and land and hard-working, independent, God-fearing, patriotic hunters and fishers — not to mention, some of the most hospitable folks around.
With the abundance of game that can be taken on a single hunting trip, there’s also a grand opportunity to use different weapons. On this most recent trip, hunting partner Jerry Hnetynka and I were able to use a Smith & Wesson .44 Magnum Hunter revolver and Savage High Country rifle in 6.5 Creedmoor, among other weaponry – all available on Guns.com, ready to take on any Texas hunting adventure.
We chased Rio Grande Turkeys in Knox County, Texas using Savage’s 220 bolt-action shotguns loaded with Federal Premium’s hard-hitting tungsten TSS loads. Several hogs fell to the Winchester XPR bolt action in .350 Legend and Henry Long Ranger lever guns.
One of the most interesting things about Texas, besides being a hunter’s paradise of game, is the beautiful terrain that varies greatly from one area of the state to the next–from Hill Country to Plains, South Texas to Big Bend range, Piney Woods to the Gulf Coast and everything in between. Gun owners, hunters, and shooters alike love Texas, plain and simple. Anyone who visits Texas knows when your boots hit the dust, you’ll feel right at home.
