What are your guys thoughts on Richland Creek and Gus Engeling going to an E-postcard draw like Granger is now that would allow archery deer hunting most of the deer season? They have apparently sold a record # APH permits with the change this year requiring them to apply for the E-postcard hunts and may want to expand it next year to other WMA's. I'm all for more opportunity, I hate we lost RC and GE as type II land, been almost 20 years ago now and think this would be a good change.

Originally posted by Vermin93 View PostI won the first hunt at Kerrville Schreiner Park. Looking forward to it.
I had heard some people had issues seeing animals there, but I killed a WT doe on the first evening and then had multiple WT bucks and doe within 5-20 yards for the remaining hunts. Never saw an exotic.
Good luck.

Originally posted by bossbowman View PostI'm really not sure why sometimes it goes straight to not selected, I saw that last year, its like there is only a smaller pool of people that are eligible for the 2nd draw or there is something wrong with their system. All mine for the sept. 1 draws are pending 2nd now.
I’ve had some hunts say pending 2nd draw and others this years immediately say not selected. It may be that people immediately take the hunt and therefore it doesn’t have time to go to 2nd drawing before we look at it.
