Congrats on drawing these hunts! Never been to Granger but I have hunted Laguna Atascosa a couple of times. BE PREPARED for chigger and tick warfare!!!! My first trip there resulted in many chigger bites and a week of itching misery. Lots of animals there! Nilgia, pigs, and wtdeer. Watch out for rattlers. I recommend snake boots or chaps! Good luck! Thanks. This will be my third time there. You ain't kidding about the ticks and chiggers! Saw plenty of rattlers too. In a way, that's a good thing. It chases all the guys away that aren't serious or prepared.

I drew on Archery Laguna Atascosa and Lower Rio Grande Valley NWR's.
I don't know which to pick! Can't do both. Anybody wanna help influence my choice? It'll be my brother, a buddy and myself. I'll be using a crossbow! I'm so stoked!

Never hunted Lower Rio grande NWR but I have hunted Laguna Atascosa. My best advice to you would be get in shape starting now. It will be the toughest hunt you will ever do that's not in the mountains.

Just checked and Private Lands-Either Sex has been drawn. Pending 2nd draw for me and more loyalty points for next year Same here. Does that mean results haven't come out yet, or better luck next year?

Neither...you got a "LP" awarded already AND you are still in the game waiting for the 2nd drawing for any "left over" tags that folks who WERE drawn dinnit pay for, or withdrew their App after the drawing for some personal reason...same place I am in.... grrr Ron

Appreciate the insight. Hoping for the best, I'm 0-3 here in AZ, hopefully the homeland will treat me right!

Where can you go to find out the status or results of the drawings? Tried digging around the TPWD site but couldn't find it. Must be blind or dumb. Or both!

Go to Permits in the TPW Hunting section of the Master Homepage's tool bar across the top of the page. Drill down until you get to the 4 choices where you can open the categories of Hunts, open the Check Status portal and fill out the form that shows you current App's received & their results, slide down the page to see your various LP status. from this portal you can also see what Hunts are still available to enter in blue to the far right side of the page...and order an App from that portal too.
FWIW it is very helpful to have your Cust # handy so you don't have to fill out the entire Personal File every time you openthe Check Status, as it will open with no more info than your last name, DOB and the Cust # after the 1st time you set up the file. Ron
