Question for the hunters on the board…

[Blake Munroe]

Have any of you ever done the public land hunt drawings from TPWD? If so, did you have any luck?

I entered a couple because I want to hunt Sika deer without having to pay thousands for a guided hunt. I also tried a couple of others for Whitetail for the hell of it  

Was just curious what your experience was like.

Probably plenty of ranchers that would let you just come on and take an axis. No season. No tag needed.

That would be awesome too. I’d love to get one of those as well for the meat.

What Bambi ever do to yall? 😂 jk I wish I still had the patience to sit in a deer blind, I'm hating cause I'm jealous.

Never been lucky enough for a draw when I've tried (not often). Hope you have better results lol

One day I'd like to get a draw for a moose up North.

Been several years since I have gotten to hunt. Last time was in Indiana got a nice buck walking out of a corn field.

Definitely worth the wait! Tastes great and rewarding. What more can you ask for?

I hope I do too.

I'm going to get into bow hunting and the number of applicants goes way down for that. 

I want to get some elk, sika and an axis. Elk obviously I'm going to have to travel for, but I would love to get one.

I didn't get to go last year. I also planned on going turkey hunting over the spring and didn't. Sucks.

I haven't even fished as much as I would like over the past 12-18 months, unfortunately.

I had only hunted Texas until my brother in law took me to his place in Indiana. The deer up there are huge ! I wasn’t expecting it. I want to go with him elk hunting as well.
