Hello to everyone, new to this site. I have been bow hunting Camp Bullis for 27 years. I would like to bring up a few points that need considerations when you hunt there.
1. There is a quota system for maneuver areas based on size of area and survey. For instance, last year the buck quota for 8A and 8B was 2 bucks. There are 9 archery circles/hunters in those areas. Not everyone will get to shoot a forked antlered buck. Also note that spikes are counted against this quota. If you harvest a spike you are kind of screwing over the other hunters in your area. Yes you can shoot 1 forked antlered deer with inside of 13" or greater, a spike (slick on at least one side) and a doe. Or as I read the rules, you can shoot up to 3 does instead of bucks. I need to verify that.
2. You must wear fluorescent orange (vest and cap) to and from your stand when hunting and while scouting during whitetail season.
3. There are many nice bucks at Camp Bullis and the key to getting one is being patient, talk with other hunters in your area about not shooting spikes and putting in the time on stand. Good luck to all this season, Tom.
