Me too.  I've heard that all Campbell leases were going to either MLD or LAMPS next season.

Our lease which is Campbell controlled has been on LAMPS for at least 10yrs.. my understanding is Campbell is going to try to take us all through the progression of MLD to reach Level 3 eventually.

My biggest concern this year was the fact we were all suppose to do camera and spot light surveys this past summer ( late August early Sept) to get a inventory of the herd to set allocations for harvest and I was curious to know who did their homework.

LAMPS is nothing more than using doe permits instead of regular tags, most of the times you get 1 permit per 100acres, in some situtations you get more if thought to need more does taken. It does allow you to take does all season with the permits. One thing you have to worry about when going to MLD is loosing your lease or going UP on lease fees which WILL happen sooner or later...

Have you noticed any difference being on LAMPS?  is the hunting any better or worse and how is the overall herd doing with regards to size/weights?

Not really.... the crazy thing is we receive 11 permits per year and only kill 3 or 4 does each year. We never tag out on does... and it is not because we are not trying and being selective.

As far as our herd goes we have a few  nice deer in my humble opinion
We have one 5.5yr old 9 pt that will score in the mid 130's if given the chance to be killed... he is a smart Old Coot.

but we always kill more bucks than does and it's not by choice it's just what presents more opportunities... If I had to guess and this is not scientific just based on past harvest trends we have more bucks than does per capita. I have only killed one doe on our lease in hunting there for 10years and I only passed on one once and that was last year and that will not happen again. I hunt in the far south end of our lease and I have all the buck pictures in the Summer and my Northern neighbors have all the does.. so guess where my bucks go come Rut.... you guessed it that all haul butt to the North and Central part of our lease.

Sunday morning my friend shot a nice 8pt 15 1/4 inside spread that went 110 to 112 and weighed 158lb live weight and 132 field dressed.. he was a big body deer.

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
