sanangelobowman??? Looking at the maps on TBR where can you hunt, not familiar at all with TBR went down there yesterday not much lake left... Can you point me in a spot to start on how to get into the units... I came in off of 67 from Mertzon... and am trying to figure from there where to go... Ive got 4x4 and don't care about scratches got a 4wheeler if needed to access some good points, any help or information to get setup out there would be much appreciated... Thanks mrpage25

mrpage, You asked me about access points on the SASP thread but thought it would be more beneficial to put it here.
This link is a map of the proposed fences and gates going to place at TBR. On this map there is a legend at the bottom left portion in the map. To be able to visably see the access points you will need to zoom in quite a bit to see the point of access/proposed new gate legends.
This map varies slightly to the older map I sent you yesterday. There is land on the south side of hwy 67 South near the 12 mile bridge across from Unit V. I have seen hunters in that area resently and I did not realize it was a legal hunting Unit.
SABowman, do you know what land I am speaking of? If so, is it part of the TBR hunting land? Thx

I figured they were a ranchers so I didn't shoot one but it was tempting. If your heading towards san Angelo on 67 past the road going to the boys ranch you'll see a couple trailer houses on the right side I was on the other side of the river bed from there took a little while to get back in there but it looked like a really good spot till the sheep showed up. Im actually out in area four right now. Trying my luck maybe today will be better than yesterday I spent most of yesterday afternoon high centered in a washout in area three.

You ever had those moments when you know you screwed up and there is nothing you can do about it? I did at 7:25 last night. I sat out there all day and saw nothing but cows with about 20 minutes of shooting light remaining I saw a raccoon sneak out of the bushes in front of me and was thinking of shooting it when I heard a twig snap behind me instinctively my head snapped in that direction there stood 7 does all looking Right at me unsure what to do I very slowly started to turn around arrow knocked release on they stood staring at me 23 yards away and as soon as I started to draw the bow one let out a cough sound and they all bolted back into the trees. I'm glad to finally see some deer that came into bow range they were big healthy does I just goofed up not paying attention to my down wind side. next time i get days off I'll be back up there trying it again.

Got a question for yall.
I'm looking to go out there and do some calling, and I have a map, but I can't find anybody that knows if there are restrictions on it. I can't imagine that there would be, but you never know right.
I've been here for 4 years and still don't understand TBR. Thanks for the help!
