The ODWC zone layer puts Texas OLAP tract H036 in antlerless Zone 1 (Closed to antlerless muzzleloader; gun 1 antlerless). Zone lines follow roads, so near a boundary the ODWC antlerless zone map decides. The season cap is six deer combined, two antlered at most; 3 inches of antler makes a deer antlered. The Panhandle Zone takes in Texas County, but OLAP rules keep elk hunters off Texas OLAP tract H036. The pronghorn area includes Texas County (west of SH 136 in Texas County). Texas County is an open fall gun turkey county. The pheasant area takes in the whole county. Texas County lies wholly or partly west of I-35, where sandhill crane and jackrabbit seasons apply.
