I’ve been playing the TPWD drawn hunt game for about 30 years. I was always under the impression—granted, possibly wrong impression—that standby was only available for drawn permits that weren’t paid by the deadline. If, that particular hunt area offers standby.
Last week I spoke on the phone with a hunt manager for a hunt that my son and I were drawn for. The hunt is next week. We paid prior to the deadline, all good.
My son cannot make the hunt due to his work schedule. I am confirmed to go. I shared this with the hunt manager on the phone and he said he would offer up my son’s paid spot for standby.
I didn’t want to question him and risk pissing him off.
So, my question is, can paid spots for no shows be offered up for standby?
Thanks in advance.
