Hunting seasons in Texas vary by species, county, zone, method and license endorsement. Burnet and Llano area hunters should use the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Outdoor Annual county lookup rather than assume that a season listed for a broad zone applies identically to every tract. White-tailed deer general season in the North Zone runs November 7, 2026 through January 3, 2027. The North Zone fall wild turkey season follows the same dates. The North Zone dove season has a second segment from December 18, 2026 through January 7, 2027. Bag limits, legal means, special youth periods, antler restrictions and county-specific rules must be checked in the official regulations.
Feral hogs are not managed as a conventional seasonal game animal in the same way as deer or turkey, but methods and land-access rules still matter. Review TPWD's feral hog guidance and confirm current rules before hunting, trapping or transporting animals.
