With this permit you'll have access to 902,090 acres to hunt
The picture shows you all the places you can hunt.
Without this permit I wouldn't get to hunt at all unless I get lucky on the drawn hunts

I saw at least 1 deer every time I went out they just didn't always come into range. Several times I would see several deer a sit. Some areas are better than others you just have to scout out a good spot. You can also shoot 1 turkey either sex and unlimited feral hogs. The later in the season it gets the more difficult the deer are to kill but there are plenty out there. I killed 2 this past season and my dad and grandpa both got 1 as well. There are some nice bucks out there.

As far as feeding goes you are allowed to feed corn or whatever other deer food you might want to use a week before they start the season and you can feed as much as you want but you can only hand throw your corn out. So no feeders of any kind. A lot of out of town guys who hunt out there several times a season will put a food block out so they won't have to throw corn out everyday.
The nice thing is that you can put up a pop up or tripod ladder stand whatever you got and leave it up during the whole deer season. The only rule about stands is they have to have your name and number on it and you can't nail anything to a tree or cut down any brush.

Originally posted by howhandi View PostThank you for your inpur. Do you know of a lot of instances where people are stealing other people's stuff? There seems to be some problems with that on TBR and wandering if the same problem exists at State Park?
I think the reason TBR has so much stuff stolen out there is because it's open to anybody to just drive out there. Where as at the state park you have to register and everything us you can't drive into to the property you can only walk in. So that scares off most thieves.
Hope ill be seeing you out there this year.
