We drew three postcard hunts this year. Two waterfowl and one archery deer on pending second. Still not happy. Didn't draw squirrel. Who the heck puts in for squirrel? All those squirrels need to reject their permits. I deserve squirrel cause I'm more worthy

for something like mule deer, pending 2nd draw probably means you've got about a 1/20000 chance of getting drawn so more like you're 99.995% #$@$ out of luck.
and I can personally testify after not getting drawn on about 85 hunts for me and my kids with 0 or 1 loyalty points since we started applying last year there is no preference given to newbies. It's just a system where the odds of getting drawn are extremely low most of the time. Some people just get lucky.

Originally posted by CAP View PostStruck out on everything today. But earlier won laguna atascosa archery and playa lakes epostcard waterfowl, so I’m not complaining. First time in 3 years I won anything.
Does anyone know when they draw the big time Texas hunts?

I have 17 permits "pending 2nd draw", so I guess I didn't win anything this go-around. It's all good though, I got picked for the 1/10-1/12 rifle hunt at Laguna and this was the first year I put in for it.
Good luck everyone!
