How the hunting has gone
What Texas Parks & Wildlife Department publishes for this area after each season — harvest statistics for everyone who hunted it, not draw odds and not a forecast. Texas Parks & Wildlife Department publishes these per hunt rather than per unit; the rows below add its own figures together, since a hunter holds one tag for the species in a season.
