How many THF members are entering into the draw to hunt Hagerman this year?

Good luck. Lots of big bucks!

I'm going to just so I can go up their and kill ya'lls deer for a change

dont you have enough bone on your place? geeze, the greed of hunters these days....and i am still working on my cert bussy, not sure if it will happen this year though.

my money says the applications will have slight increase after a few recent news stories.

and TT85, aint no fences or feeders up there, how's your tactics?

I don't think trophy is use to humping a climber 4 miles

Nope. I may after I retire. Not this year though.

I live in Pottsboro and don't bow hunt but I do drive through The Hagerman quit a few times during there season.I have one friend that has been drawn at least 6 times over the last 20 years.He has killed several deer. There is lots of hogs. I saw some people using mountain bikes to go in on last season ,thought that was neat. Stopped by the headquarters and saw one of the staff working on a good buck ,tall heavy but not wide enough,They got the deer he got the fine. If I was a bow hunter I would sign up and try get one of those trophys,Good luck

I want too but I dont have the bowhunters ed that they require and I cannot find anyone around my area to take it.

I went to HS with one of the Grayson GW's. He recently moved there from Webb County. He told me a few months back that the biggest deer in the state are in Hagerman.

There was a guy here a while back did one at Lake Whitney. You might pm hunter1st and ask him when he may do another one.

Ain't nuthing but a thang'

I've read a little about it. How do u apply? When is it due?

you have till 6/8 to get your app in

I wonder if the 2013 season has the same date?

I'm in, and already have my qualifier. And, I'll be doing another BH ED (IBEP) class at Lake Whitney first part of 2014.

Well I must say I tend to lean on the side of wanting as many opportunities as I can get. And hey 200 inches just ain't doin it for me anymore. Lol! Jk.

good lick

luck 5 second rule

Well I must have paid my taxes on time. I drew for Hagerman this fall.

Got my email... Didnt get drawn again!!!! I was drawn three years ago and shot a good 10 point. Preference points didnt pan out for me this year! Good luck to those that got drawn

What Unit did you hunt?

Which segment seems to be the preferred segment out there? I drew the first segment.

Good luck! If you expect to kill a big buck, you need to be patterning the deer almost every morning and/or evening for a few weeks before your hunt. Hagerman is like Texoma. Texoma has a lot of fish but if you don't pattern them, you could be spending a lot of time fishing empty water. Hagerman has a lot of deer...same analogy. The importance of that is that you can fish Texoma every day. You only have a few days to hunt Hagerman.

Take a chill pill (figuratively) before you go because you're likely to see a lot more hunters than deer unless you find that sweet spot no one else has found.

I got drawn this year. Last year was my first time to put in. I'm pretty stoked.

That year I hunted Big Sandy.

Cool. Hopefully I can have a little luck on my side and be in the right spot.
