Deer Hunters Take Aim at Supply Stores

Deer hunting season kicks into full gear this weekend across North Texas.

Deer hunters are taking aim and supply stores across North Texas as white-tailed deer hunting season approaches.

The season kicks off this weekend in most North Texas counties.

It's a Texas tradition and a big money maker for hunting supply stores like Bass Pro Shops.

"I easily spent $500 to $1000 on new stuff," John Lee said. "I've been hunting since I was about eight years old."

Hunters like Lee have been flooding the store all week, getting licenses, ammo and other supplies.

Deer hunting generates about $1 billion in retail sales each year.

"There's just something about it that gets in you and you enjoy it," Lee said.
