So if you get selected it's $180. I could not see when the deadline was so I guess it is still under review for this coming season.

It is. You still have to get your tx hunting license. You first have to apply for the lottery. If you get selected then you pay.. Then once it opens completely then its a race to pick the area you want to hunt.

Well, that's unfortunate. Good news is it's only $50 for a WTD permit.

Well that seems to be an unfortunate change to things. The change in stands etc that is.

My concern is the late start in setup time. With drawing results on the 30th and season starting on 6 Oct, it does not leave much time for acclimation

Best of luck out there this year I'll follow along for the ride. Looks like they really did a bang up job of messing thing up imo so I guess I'm glad I got on a lease this year and don't have to deal with the hassle. Maybe next year if they get someone to take charge and figure things out things might improve. Best of luck to those hunting out there this year.

New archery areas maps with circles are posted on JBSA under the hunting tab. Rules for hunting this year are still being reviewed. Looks like a total of 90 archery circles/areas will be available. No gun hunting this year. I heard that over labor day 3 day weekend they brought in a helicopter and shot 460 hogs. Good luck to all. Tom

So with the less spots this year I wonder how the turn out will be? Wonder if the gun hunters going to try in a little bit of archery or just not even go out there? I would love to know the hog population after that 460 being dispatched...also read in the paper a few weeks ago about them possibly setting up posion feed to get rid of them as well. Hopefully it doesn't come to that because I'll go take down so hogs! Good luck y'all and hopefully see y'all out there!

Anyone else seeing this in the lottery section of iSportsman after purchasing a lottery "permit"? I'm assuming this is from last year?

Yes...it's from last year. I have it too but what matters if in your permits you have the 2017-2018 WTD lottery ticket. That section is when they draw and it will update

Still can't choose location, but sure enough would let me pay for the WTD permit. Where on the website would there be an option to choose the stand, under what menu?
JUST GOT 8B2. Good Luck everyone Last edited by 5qu1n7; 09-30-2017 at 11:01 AM. |

When I spoke to Rustin at about 1030, there were about 55 permits sold and about 35 stands selected.
I'm not impressed with the method of stand selection. |

The computer selection process was again all screwed up. After 4 years in a row of screw ups one would think all the bugs would be worked out. You could buy your whitetail permit but no stand/circle locations were offered. It became a cluster????, trying to contact someone with the message they posted on the home page- please call Trey or Rustin with no phone numbers listed in the message. Trey turned out to be the Game Warden who was listed in the Rule book as Archie Cooper, who would know that? Did anyone who got picked notice you were not asked for your Texas Hunting License info? As a result people showed up wanting to put their equipment up who had not purchased a license. I am back in 10-1 after that double drop tine in my avatar that I had on camera 2 years ago. Good luck to all that got selected, Tom.

I got picked up on the second draw today. Anyone have any thoughts on the 11 section, or 3A section? There are a couple in each of those still left. Also, it's saying $50 for the wtd permit. I thought it was more. Did it change this year? Thanks for any thoughts! First year out there!

Thanks Riley05. Are there stands out there already, and can we bring someone with us hunting out there? Oh, and was that your wish list or did you see the remaining secondary draw list because that's what they say is still available.

That was my wishlist for the remaining 7 spots if I got selected on the draw. You will need either a pop up or a tripod stand. They are not allowing tree stands anymore. Feeders are a good idea. And you can have a non hunting guest.... I took my son with me many times.

Lil' Cobra got 7-3...we hunted 2D last year so new to TA 7. I have been paper scouting that area and saw a couple of spots I want to scout when it opens up. Does anyone know if we can assemble a wood platform to set a pop up on out there? I would build it at the house and disassemble it and just reassemble it out there.

You can build a wooden platform if you like but a simple popup blind is what I use. As far as someone hunting with you, yes it is permitted but they must also get a permit which is free however they are not allowed to hunt. All of these questions are answered in the 2017/18 hunting rules under the hunting tab. Remember you are hunting on a Federal Military Installation so any hunting infractions will be enforced. Do not rely on word of mouth to get info on hunting Camp Bullis, read the rules. Another big change this year is the harvest quota, 4 deer and only 1 can be a buck and you must harvest a doe first. That means after you get your doe you can take a spike or mature buck over 13 inches inside spread but not both. In other words a spike will be your 1 and only buck you can legally take. Read and reread the rules because the penalties can be severe. Tom

Regarding rule changes for this year, I applaud them. Well done. They ensure does are removed and allow most hunters to get a chance at a buck.

For those that haven't been out there yet, allow extra time for check-in. They'll require you fill out all your information by hand and require your printed Bullis permit, hunter Ed card, license, vehicle and insurance.

I have bow hunted on Camp Bullis for the past 28 years and the last 5 years have been messed up in one way or another using the JBSA drawing system. The biggest improvement this year is doing away with the kiosk computer sign in/out and relocating this process back to Outdoor Rec/Rod & Gun building where the game cooler is located and parking is plentiful. There are real people there also. I have some ladder stands that I use to use out there but according to rules are not legal now. Make sure all your equipment has your name and hunting permit # on them. Tom

Tom, I'm on your side. I think the temporary strap on ladder stands should be legal. I guess somewhere along the way some hunters have ruined it by puncturing the trees. I've seen great big beautiful live oaks with swimming pool ladders grown into them and make shift platforms put in. Looks terrible. I'm guessing the biologists just don't want to take the risk anymore with oak wilt and other diseases so prevalent.
