Antlerless Deer Permits
The U.S. Forest Service will soon be offering a limited number of permits to hunt antlerless deer for the general season November 7, 2009 through January 3, 2010.
Applications for the permits will be available online at www.fs.fed.us/r8/texas beginning August 17, 2009. Any applications sent in prior to this date will be discarded.
Separate entries must be submitted for each licensed hunter, and only one application per hunter is allowed. Duplicate submissions will be discarded.
Youth participating in the general season public hunts by special permit must apply for “youth only permits” if they are between the ages of 8 and 16 at the time of application. The words “youth only permit” must be on the application, along with applicant’s 2009-2010 hunting license number and specific hunting area.
Hunters are selected by random drawing and only one application per person will be accepted. A drawing will be held in mid-October to select a limited number of permits. Only those chosen will be notified by standard postal mail. Permit availability, areas of issuance and application instructions can be obtained from the Forest Supervisor’s office in Lufkin.
Those interested in applying for a permit may apply online or mail a regular-sized postcard with the words “Antlerless Deer Permit,” the applicant’s name and mailing address and 2009-2010 hunting license number and specific hunting area on the card. All requests must be received online or postmarked by October 2, 2009. Mail cards to:
