Originally posted by MooseontheLoose View PostI drew the Dimmitt Playa pheasant/waterfowl hunt a couple years ago. That specific site was so far away from the closest office that they just sent me a packet of information about it (map, parking, etc.) and basically said "here's all the info., send us a report with pics when you leave." The lady I spoke with was really nice, they allowed me to go up a day early to scout it out, but couldn't provide any kind of updates on water levels or anything, just the reports of the previous hunters.
The hunt area itself is supposed to be protected, but the poaching is bad up there (she even told me it was), so it's not really "protected." We had a guy that showed up to poach while we were there. When he finally saw my truck he turned around, got back in his truck, and sped off. Let her and GW know but he was in a different part of the county so I'm sure they didn't catch him. With all the empty shell hulls we saw, it gets hit much harder than the couple weekends they open it up to the public hunts.
Nobody to sit with you, no orientation or check-in or anything, and not really protected either

I was able to apply for a bunch of them this afternoon.

If you apply for a group and get drawn everyone goes.

I’m setting my mind on family land out of state, it doesn’t close.
Now I’m just thinking about hunting instead of variables, variance, and variation.
