A second mail survey conducted by the department also polled Type II
permit holders about their impressions of the program Approximately 2,2400
respondents to the survey indicated that most were pleased with their
experiences in 1988-89
Boydston said about 70 percent of the respondents indicated they
actually hunted on Type II lands, and 51 7 percent said they were either
satisified or highly satisfied Only 15 8 percent indicated they were
dissatisfied or highly dissatisfied The remaining 32 5 percent expressed
mixed feelings about their hunting experiences
Boydston said 53 8 percent of the respondents believed the Type II
concept is a "great idea," while another 31 7 said they thought it was a
"good idea," for an overall acceptance rate of 85 5 percent
The most common complaint among survey respondents was "not enough
game," as indicated by 45 7 percent of those polled "Many of the Type II
areas had been subjected to heavy or unregulated hunting pressure in the
past and support relatively low game populations, especially deer,"
Boydston noted "However, with additional stockings, habitat improvement
and increased law enforcement efforts, game populations should increase to
more desirable levels in the future " He pointed out that more than 1,900
white-tailed deer have been stocked on Type II areas during the past two
years
Type II permits for the 1989-90 hunting seasons are now on sale at TPWD
Headquarters in Austin and law enforcement field offices across the state
