In case you haven’t heard, the general white-tailed deer season opens Nov. 7 this year.  It’s not on the Texas Parks and Wildlife website yet; they post 2009-2010 dates on Aug. 15 when hunting licenses become available.

Looks like we got that new feeder section up on the website just in time to help all you hunters get ready for the new season.  It’s chock full of all kinds of feeders including the Uvalco 400lb Quad feeder, tailgate feeders, ATV feeders, quail feeders and our large 2000 and 3000lb Grandote silo-style feeders.

We’re your one-stop source for feeder parts as well, and keep a good stock of everything you’ll need to keep that feeder in good shape throughout the season.

There are 51 public Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) in Texas covering over 750,000 acres. A $48 Annual Public Hunting permit gives you access for hunting, camping, fishing and other uses.  Those under the age of 17 are allowed to hunt free when accompanied by an adult with a valid permit. Here’s a link to the list of the WMAs in Texas.

The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has also created the Hunt Texas Online Connection, a free Web service that allows anyone to view hunting opportunities posted by private landowners across the state. Hunters can search more than 450 hunting opportunities by lease type, county, game animal, cost per hunter and other parameters. The service is free to both hunters and landowners.

Happy hunting in 2009!

Everything’s bigger in Texas, including the insects!  If you’ve had your evening porch-sitting or picnic interrupted by pesky pests, you need to pick up one of these Black Flag Bug Foggers:

Black Flag Propane Fogger

Powered by a standard propane cylinder, this fogger provides a dense, penetrating insect-killing fog that eliminates bugs from your backyard or campsite.  Just one ounce of fogger creates 2,000 cubic feet of fog in seconds.

And talk about Texas-sized – have we got a humdinger of a hummingbird feeder for you!

Have you ever been searching for a product to purchase and had the thought that you need a bigger one or a more durable one?  Most of our customers have.  The remoteness and adverse weather conditions  of South Texas require that a product holds up whether it is a tool or a toy.  When we add a product or product line, whether we manufacture it here at Uvalco or buy it from a supplier, we do all we can to make sure it will meet the expectations of our customers.

We also think that size matters when it comes to farm and ranch supplies, outdoor cooking equipment, bbq pits, cattle guards, game feeders and protein feeders just to name a few.  People in and around Uvalde like big items to serve big crowds of hungry people, supply big ranches and feed big whitetail deer so we buy as big as we can as often as we can to accommodate our customer’s needs.
