Hey yall, just moved to NE Texas from Corpus. Never hunted in my state before but I've hunted a lot in Oregon since I have a lot of family there. I finally bought a house up here 30 miles north of Longview and I want to start hunting deer down here. What all do I need to be able to go out legally? The Texas website is a little confusing. From what I've gathered, Ill obviously need a $25 hunting license and of course my deer tags. I live right next to White Oak Creek WMA which offers public land hunting, after tags and the license what else do I need to be able to go hunt that land? For reference when I hunted Tillamook National Forest in Oregon, I could buy a tag and license and just willy nilly hunt, could I do that here or do I need extra steps/hoops to go through? I'm familiar with the proper limits, genders, caliber and everything else. I just don't want to be caught with a carcass and not have a vital paper. This is for rifle hunting
