I am new to public hunting and have a question that I was hoping someone could help me out with. I hunt the old sabine bottom outside of lindale and the way I read the book I got from tpwd your bag limit is 2. One buck and one doe. The way I took it was that your doe had to be taken during the archery only season then when general season opened your could take your buck. But after talking to some other hunters they say that it never specifies when your doe has to be taken so you can take it anytime throughout season. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

you can only shoot does during bow season but during rifle season u need doe permits.

I beleive it's the same in the Davy Crockett national forest doe permits cost I think bout 50 dollars if I was u I would buy em now for next year cuz pll r all ready gettin em cuz they only give out so maby there's alot does where I hunt which is good to get them bucks to come out

Doe permits in the natl forest is by drawing. They draw in October.
