How Texas Hunting Leases Work
Most Texas leases run per gun, per season, with annual whitetail leases typically negotiated in spring and summer — well before opener. Day access and guided hunts are priced per hunter per day. Since over 95% of Texas land is privately owned, a lease or guided arrangement is the practical way to hunt the state. Each WildLand Access listing shows acreage, terrain, game types, weapon types, and pricing type, and you contact the lister directly to arrange dates and terms.
When to Book
Texas whitetail season generally runs November through early January (check current TPWD regulations for your county). The best leases are gone by late summer — start your search now. Hog hunting is open year-round, making Texas the top off-season destination in the country.
