They can shoot any legal deer during the youth seasons, I called our game warden last season on this same subject.

They can shoot any legal deer during the youth seasons, I called our game warden last season on this same subject. It was not clear last year even to some GW's. I called our GW last year and told him someone told me youth could continue to harvest bigger deer during the late hunt and he told me that was wrong only does and spike. Within an hour he called me back and apologized for his incorrect understanding of the new laws. Even GW's are human and make mistakes sometimes.

Check with the warden in the county your hunting, I was informed earlier this year that some counties I believe in E Texas does and spikes only. But in all the counties I hunt in central texas any legal deer youth can shoot.

Called my warden yesterday and asked him this same question. Youth are allowed to shoot ANY deer that steps out as long as they have their license and proper tag for what was harvested.
All ready

It states in the counties listing section that they may shoot whatever was legal in that county at the beginning of the season. At least that is what Harrison County shows. Check your county section for more detail.
