      Thanks, I started my own thread also to ask more specific details about what I'm looking to find out.

        Duckman49: Was your daughter picked for the doe/spike or the either-sex hunt? The CCNS is a tough hunt for archery, but fun with a rifle. I hunted it last year in January and had a great time. Could have shot a doe or management buck each day out of my pop-up but held out for a trophy. Saw 3 shooters in the four days and they were all over 130", but none close enough that I felt it was an ethical shot.

        Timing at New Years last year was bad, because of the cold front that came thru. Temps down to 18-20 degrees. Javelina stayed bedded all day and only came out when the sun was high and it warmed up. Lots of pig action down in the bottoms; saw one monster boar that was over 200#. Chris, Murray, and Robert from the Daughtrey were great and offered up lots of info. Unit 1 has a nice pond in the bottom, but makes for longer shots in the openings under the power lines.

          Also for Choke, Choke canyon lodge if its still there is a nice place to stay but its pricey, nice gated interior with bbq pits just outside the rooms, stayed there when we fished the lake before. For more budget, in town I've heard the super 8 is good and clean.

              Anybody else having trouble with the TP&W Draw Hunt web sight? I can't get the links to "check status" or acct, or anything else, to work today.

                    Way to many hunts applied for, enough failures to make me rethink this process, 1 win that guarantees I put just as much money in next year.

                        Regular raffle for a very limited number of guided hunts, and no limit on the number of times you buy. This one has really bad odds, but someone can win the hunt of a life time for $10. Just like casino gambling, spend what you can afford, but be responsible.
                        Thanks for clearing that up.

                          I couldn't get it to work for me yesterday evening. I just tried again and am still having issues.

                            No go on two second draws for my daughter and I. Two more to go on the 15th might try and put in for a couple more before then.

                              Surely there are others on here that won a second chance drawing. I came up with 2nd chance EPostcard Keechi Creek Archery Deer on the last week.
