The only benefit to not winning a Muzzleloader spot - I don't have to explain to the wife why I bought another new gun LOL

Will be a sad time not getting to hunt in that cool weather though.

That's where I got lucky. My son won a hunt at Palmetto. Which is also a muzzleloader. So I can explain to my wife it's for the kid.

I wanted a turkey hunt. Never done it. Was hoping to change my luck this year. Congrats. I'll be there for an antlerless hunt this year.

My son and I both whiffed for all draws this year. My son is 13 and has been putting in since he was 8. He has never been drawn for a single hunt.

That blows, hopefully some better luck next year!

How many hunts is he putting in for?

I put in for a total of 50 this year (not counting the Texas Big Time Hunts) and won 3 (all deer on NWRs). Last year was the first year I entered and I missed the application deadline for most hunts - and still won 3 (mind you last year it was just hog and squirrel). Is he only putting his name in the bag for a hunt or two or only the ones with lots of applicants?

No problem. It's difficult to find any info on these places. The one good thing I got from talking to the guy at the refuge was in January you will actually be able to hunt and see deer. The deer will still be there during November, it's just really thick that time of year and limits how far you can see in any direction. That and bring waterproof boots.

Congratulations to those drawn and good luck on your hunts. All not selected or pending 2nd for me. I was hoping to draw at least one of the small game postcard draws. Maybe next season.

Just squirrel? JUST SQUIRREL?? Do you know how long I've put in for squirrel? So, it's your fault I didn't draw squirrel.

You are dead to me.

LOL... Actually ended up having to fly to Hong Kong the day that hunt was supposed to start too and totally missed it. Keechi Creek WMA squirrel's lucked out that year. smile

I don't know why I'm so hung up on drawing squirrel. It's just as easy to trot down to the NF and start shooting them. I just wanted to be drawn. I guess if your going to miss a squirrel hunt, Hong Kong is as good an excuse as any.

He was in for 10 different drawings. I tried to put in for some that had lower entry numbers based on previous year stats. I am certain I need to enter him in many more next year. He is also entered in some TYHP drawings, so there is still hope. If no luck there, we will just go fishing! smile

Congrats and good luck to all who were selected!

Squirrel is my go-to above all. I have always hunted Boar's Den on the Trinity, years before it was even open as Federal land & I always drew every year then. Now that TPWD has begun the management of it I quit. $130 & the uncertainty of it being flooded all month is too much vexation for me.
