For you guys looking to travel and have a great time y'all need to look at Texas.
Lots of draw opportunities as well as private land hunts.
Here's a few things you can find in Texas...
Some of these Texas exotics include blackbuck antelope, axis deer, fallow deer, sika deer, mouflon sheep, Corsican sheep, free-range aoudad sheep, free-range elk, free-range addax, lechwe, scimitar-horned oryx, Beisa oryx, white-bearded gnu, impala, kudu, nyala, springbok, zebra, and eland.
Pretty good list to get you in the mood. Notice a lot of these animals are now "free range".
Permit season, any luck?

I was successful in the Ontario deer draw! Not too hard because it was listed at 100% for many years now... lol

A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

Karin and I both got doe tags. Hopefully I will tag a mature buck and won't have to use mine.Carnivorous wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2024 9:10 amI was successful in the Ontario deer draw! Not too hard because it was listed at 100% for many years now... lol

Re: Permit season, any luck?
I got a doe tag, which is good. Because I'm the guy that doesn't get the tag when it's 99%

Re: Permit season, any luck?
Surprising I did not get a doe tag this year . First time since I started hunting . Used to be WMU 80 was 100% obviously not anymore . Others in the group got antlerless so I am still good .

Re: Permit season, any luck?
Kev, I'm that guy that never draws a doe tag or a Controlled when everyone else does. Super awesome when your whole hunting party draws November and I get December. At least now you can bow hunt in controlled with a tag.Doe Master wrote: ↑Sat Aug 03, 2024 7:06 amSurprising I did not get a doe tag this year . First time since I started hunting .

Re: Permit season, any luck?
In the past, I hunted an area where doe tags were 100% guaranteed. Unfortunately, now the area I hunt is only 29% success rate. Needless to say, I haven't gotten a antlerless tag yet. After being spoiled for years, and having a tag every year, I'm OK with not drawing any. I suppose it's called balance.
