Hey guys, this is my first year putting in for public hunt drawings in Texas. My question is what other states do you guys recommend to buy some entries in? Don't really have a specific target species in mind, just looking to hunt in different areas. Thanks

Only for the more adventurous, the draw is open for Florida's Sambar Deer at St. Vincent Island National Wildlife Refuge.

Every year, I put in for hunts in these states:
Arizona (the deadline is today, June 10) New Mexico Colorado Utah Nevada Wyoming Montana Idaho
In the past and occasionally, I've applied here:
California Oregon Alaska Kansas Iowa
On average, I make around 30 applications per year. I got drawn twice last year...coues in AZ, elk in Nev. So far this year, no cigar.

Kansas- Mule Deer Arizona- Mule Deer New Mexico- Gemsbok and Ibex
I had drawn a Mule Deer permit in 2012 and 2013 in Kansas. Got a Whitetail permit only this year in Kansas. You have to enter the WT drawing and get drawn then have entered the Mule Deer and get drawn for it to get a permit. If you draw a Mule Deer permit it is then either species for your choice of one animal only. I am going to look into other drawings for next year like Iowa and Idaho.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I just found out that I successfully drew a buck tag for the 1st shotgun Iowa season this year. I've been going there for the past 10+ years.

I have been drawn in the past for elk cow and turkey (twice) at the NRA Whittington Center in New Mexico. Good luck and God bless.

Idaho New Mexico Wyoming Colorado Montana Nevada Utah Minnesota Wisconsin South Dakota.
Did not draw a thing this year. But I usually apply for the best units in each state for each species. Still have some of the raffle hunts to go but those odds are thousands to one. Oh well maybe I'll draw something in Texas this year.
