Briar Friar, Several years ago the Granger Land owned by the COE was managed by the COE and supervised by the TPWD. You needed a COE permit. Now the TPWD has leased the Granger COE land and it is part of the Public Hunting Lands Program. It used to be Granger WMA and now it is Granger PHL. Permit required. Hunter Orange is required because Granger allows firearms (shotguns) to be used year round for squirrels. Some public lands archery hunters do not need hunter orange except during firearm season, however Granger is firearm season 12 months out of the year.

But seriously, rules are rules. They require blaze for a reason. I now put some blaze orange tape on my pop-up stands after some dumb***** shot an arrow through one.

Thanks for the guidance Rat.
Just to clarify...Granger is a permit by APH only....not something you go to the Granger Lake COE HQ and purchase or submit for draw or fill out application.
Anybody find it ironic that shotgun hunters are exempt from wearing blaze orange...and bow hunters do.
How many folk know somebody that has actively hunted and bagged a squirrel by shot gun at Granger?
Anybody seen the Eurasian collared duck honey hole?....its right next to the feral hog honey hole.Last edited by Briar Friar; 07-11-2015, 11:59 AM.

It was my first time eating squirrel, and turned out quite tasty! I made a simple squirrel pot pie. You're right, lots of meat on them. Especially the shoulders, compared to a rabbit.
