I was fortunate enough to draw one for the 4th hunt Oct 16-31 are my dates. I am pumped! Who else has either drawn or is going? What was it like? Any luck?

Ive heard there is not too many deer that have a 13" or greater spread arround the lake, someone that i know hunted last year and they told him nothing had been taken in a while..Good luck though..
A bad day of Hunting is Better than a Good Day at work...

How can you scout benbrook land? Wouldnt some one who has already drawn be out there hunting? That is one thing that kept me from sending one in, Dont know the land and when would you be able to scout?

I was drawn about 3-4 years ago and every time I went out there, there were people either scouting for their upcoming hunt or there were beagle dogs being trained.

I wanted to hunt Rocky Creek but the dang place got flooded out and work has been crazy so my time has been really limited and it sucks!

I was wondering if the water was back up at the crappie house, guess answers that question.

People do kill deer there, theres a guy on texasbowhunter that posted some pics awhile back of a nice buck and doe he took. You might try an hit him up, his handle is texas grown. He might help you out if he hasn't been drawn there this year, if he has he'll probably be tight lipped.

A buddy of mine hunted there a couple of years ago and saw a lot of deer including a really nice buck, but all he ever shot were doe. It's public land so you have to deal with others coming and going. Like most places, he had the most luck very early and right when it was getting dark.
