I got drawn for hunt #6! First time doing it. Going scouting now and narrow down my spots. Couple questions for the vets.
Can you use a trail cam? Are you only allowed to feed for your 2 week period or can you feed prior? Is it better to hunt during the week and avoid the crowd on the weekend?
Thanks for any info in advance.

Trail cams are ok. I’ve never had one stolen yet and people seems to respect them. Corn can be thrown out anytime and open to all public at any time. I’ve had guys walk dogs by just hiking and have had a large family ruin a hunt while on the trail of a 160 class buck by swimming drinking and lighting large bon fire 150 yards from my stand. For the most part of you get off the beating path you can find good spots and not be messed with much on any day. Key is to get in and hang a set before someone else does. I mark them bright so people know I’m there. They either move away or they camp next to me which they would do anyway. I shot two doe last year and had many other opportunities. Those deer are smart however and catch on you quick.

I heard that it’s a very high success rate but the spots go fast. I would recommend it for the youngsters.

It’s a Texas Youth Hunting Program hunt so you have to apply through their website. Tyhp.org
