My daughter got drawn for a hunt at ID Fairchild state forest. I've been putting in for drawings for 3 years and this will be our first. I have no idea what to expect. Anyone have tips or experiences at this park. I'm really hoping she gets her first nice buck.

I drew it with my nephew last year, but did not go. So, I am curious as well how the hunt goes.

UPDATE!!!!
I can not brag enough about this youth hunt. The guys there from Texas Park and Wildlife and the A&M Texas Forest service were awesome!! This was my first public hunt and I was nervous about the unknowns but those guys made me and my daughter feel so welcomed and catered, to all of the families there from day one. This park was a great youth hunting spot. We saw deer the whole weekend. There was 12 kids and 5 out of 12 took deer home. Including my daughter. We saw a few nice bucks but just couldnt get a clear shot at one. My daughter had her mind set on bagging a buck that she let a ton of doe walk, until the last night that is. After the kill they came to pick us up from the assigned stand, help load her kill, back at camp they were awesome helping drress and skin her doe, and explaining the whole process to my daughter. Highly recommend this park for youth hunts, and I hope we get the chance to hunt her again.
