Lake Tawakoni State Park

376 acres of blackjack oak, post oak and hickory on the sandy southern shore of Lake Tawakoni, with more than five miles of lakefront. A small prairie by the headquarters is what survives of the grassland that once covered this country, still carrying big and little bluestem.

These are drawn hunts. You must apply in advance and be selected — you cannot simply turn up. Being drawn is not guaranteed, and a permit for one hunt does not admit you to another. Each block below is one hunt — one application covers every animal listed in it. Apply through Texas Parks & Wildlife.
