In 1990 Texas had an estimated population of around 200,000 desert mule deer. Approximately 8,000 per year were harvested that year. They are found in the western and nothern parts of the state with the primary areas being the panhandle and trans pecos regions.

gosh I learn something every day, Haveing grown up in central texas I didn't have a clue about the pheasants or the mule deer.
For the longest time there was no deer at all where I lived. I think the problem was poaching, Texas being all private land, the good ole boys would shoot any deer on site in any season it didn't matter, and before we could catch them on our part of our ranch they where long gone. Gib lewis former speaker of the house planted a bunch of deer next to us unfortunatly that was right before I moved. Now there are no quail because of the fire ants, but now wild hogs have moved in.
