My son was drawn for the youth hunt at Chaparral WMA for antlerless/spike. Has anyone been drawn for this hunt in the past and if so could you shed some light on what to expect? I read that there are some blinds in place, however I intend to bring a popup as well in case we need to relocate or if the provided stands are POS.

sorry can't help with info. enjoy the time & best wishes

There will be several box "youth" blinds on your hunting area like this:


There are also tripods and some ground blinds available.

The campground used to be nice but with all the oil and gas traffic it's more like camping next to I-35.

Definitely a great place to get a permit. Have fun and make some good memories.

awsome place beat wishes

Great place to hunt and super people there at the WMA. You will have a fun hunt. Look on several of my previous hunt posts for pics of both the youth and either sex hunts. We were there for the Dec youth deer hunt.

Thank you guys - we are looking forward to it!

I was drawn for a predator hunt there several years ago. My partner and I had several thousand acres of hunting area to ourselves. We hunted the stands, set up quick blinds along the cuts and hid near a few ponds...the brush was too thick to really get into. We saw several does and javelinas. At that time they had a rattlesnake study going on so you couldn't kill them and we found a few. We didn't kill anything, but time. I did enjoy the wilderness though. We stayed at a motel about 15 minutes away. Good luck!
