Frequently Asked Questions

Registration

Do I have to register to look up leases?

No, you don't have to register to see the leases. However, you won't be able to contact any landowners unless you register.

Why do I have to register? I don't want my email address to be abused.

When you register, the system checks with you to make sure it's a valid address. When another user contacts you, they don't know what your email address is, the system forwards the message to you.

No matter what I use as a password, it keeps telling me it's an incorrect login.

Were you sure to register first? Did you get an email from hunt.texas@tpwd.texas.gov giving you a link to confirm that your email address is working? You must use the link, which ends with the word "activate", before you will be able to log on.

I tried to register, but I'm not getting your email.

You might look in your Bulk Mail (Spam). Some systems allow you to block everybody who are not in your address book. Some providers take a while to deliver mail to you (up to 20 minutes)

Registered Landowners

I have entered my ranch, but I don't see it on the list.

Did you enter a lease opportunity to go along with it? If you had a lease, and deleted it, you won't be on the list, but your property is still available to enter new leases any time.

I used the 'BACK' button to correct my lease form, but the changes don't work.

Our menu has three options - adding, editing, or deleting a lease. If you made a mistake, use the edit or delete option. The 'BACK' button does not undo form entries.

I'm not sure I want to do this. Is it difficult to delete a lease, once it's been created?

Once you have a listing (or two) you'll see that it's very easy to delete one, simply click a button.

Is it hard to change a lease listing or property description?

No, just use the edit option from the menu, fill out the form, and submit it.

I have several leases listed on my property, but I want to quit listing this property altogether. Do I have to delete the leases first? What happens if I don't?

When you choose to delete a property, the system will delete all leases from that property first.

I got an email from a hunter, and want to reply. How do I know what to put in the "To:" box?

In the email, their user name is at the end in quotes. That's all you need. We ask that you mention the lease id number and/or ranch name in your subject line.

I have already leased my property. Is there some way to stop getting emails?

Please delete your lease listing as soon as you have enough hunters. You can add it back next year. Your property will remain in the system.

All Users

How do I change my password?

After logging in, you will find a "Change my password" item on the menu. Fill out the form with your new password twice, and click Submit.

What if I can't log in?

Use the 'Reset Password' button. After filling in your email address, a new password will be generated and emailed to you. You may want to change it to something you can remember after you log in for the first time.

I've chosen the 'Reset Password' option, but I haven't received an email.

Make sure "hunt.texas@tpwd.texas.gov" is in your address book. Check your bulk folder. Are you sure you've registered?

What can I do when I find listings that aren't legitimate?

Please notify us by email at Hunt Texas. We will remove any listings that don't describe actual properties or lease opportunities.
