Looks like the results are out. Unfortunately I was unsuccessfulComment

Not picked either. Wondering if there will be a standby date?Comment

I don't see anything about standbyComment

Well I finally drew.Comment

They said no standby this year. I really thought the odds would be good with the change in the draw this year, but maybe it did the opposite... no dice for me either.Originally posted by Charl View PostComment

You won't be the only new guy. Got drawn so this'll be my first time hunting Central Texas. If anybody has any tips or recommendations for Lake Georgetown, I'm all ears.Originally posted by Rockstar69 View PostComment

First time hunting Lake Georgetown
What’s up fellas?
This is my first time hunting Lake Georgetown and only second time hunting public land. Hunted Laguna Atascosa a couple years ago for Nilgai. I’m a native Austinite. My family and I moved out to Georgetown in 2019. I’ve hunted some in Central Texas but not much. Been on a lease out in West Texas near Ozona since I was 15. I do majority of my hunting there. My wife and I are expecting a little girl in November so this is a blessing. I thought majority of my hunting season was shot. Looking forward to getting out a bunch and being close to home.
That being said I’ve read through a ton of the post to inform myself as much as possible. I still have a few questions. Also any advice would be greatly appreciated.
1. Access? I read that we could only park in designated parking areas. Is that true? I also read a post saying people park on the side of the road and hop the fence.
2. General hunting area vs bow hunting only area? I know there is small game hunters. Anybody that’s hunted the general hunting area have many interactions with the small game hunters?
3. Hunters vs General public? Most of the trails I’ve been on have a ton of hikers, bikers, etc. Any negative interactions while in camo with a bow or dragging a dear down the trail?
4. General courtesy? Obviously trying to avoid peoples hunting spots. I’m sure like most I’d like to be away from any other hunters but I’m sure it’s inevitable some of us we’ll bump into each other. Any rules of thumb?
Appreciate any help! And maybe meeting some of y’allComment

Congrats to you and your wife on the upcoming birth of your daughter!! I follow this thread a lot as I have wanted to hunt the lake, but have been blessed with having family land to hunt on. That being said, it would be nice to hunt close to home as I have seen some very respectable bucks in the area over my 18 years of living here. From what I gather, some hunters have an occasional issue with people messing with their sets, but I think that is rare. There are some good folks that hunt the lake regularly and I bet someone will jump in and help. Good luck this season and congrats for getting drawn out there.Comment
