Ok so I've gotten the public hunting itch. Anyone have any info about this place? It's actually closer to me than Cooper. Not looking for Giants. I'd be happy with a mature 120" deer. Any help is greatly appreciated.

All public land had opportunity. Does it have an opportunity without scouting? That is the question. Unless you get lucky, you need to put in your time scouting. I have a public land area that I use, and with scouting I have found three great spots that I at least see deer each time I go. During opening weekend of Bow season, I saw a nice buck, just could not get him to come closer. Last year during rifle season I went to my spots 5 times, I saw does each time, a non legal buck two of the 5 times and killed 1 legal buck. Not bad odds for public land hunting. Its tough, but can be done.

don't go by yourself. i've had 2 bad experiences there with local folks who feel it's their personal lease. there are deer there to be had. just walk way back to get away from the yoyo's. and don't go alone.

This is my second year out there haven't run into anybody else while hunting. Although I do hunt pretty far away from the main spots. Havent seen any deer while hunting out there this year but have some on camera. It's 25,000plus acres so there is bound to be some big deer out there you just have to find them and get away from everybody else. I am not afraid to go out there by myself and have not experienced a situation that would make me think otherwise.

Maximum what happened when you were out there. The only thing I have ever heard about was people complaining about others riding four wheelers in to duck hunt.

"You sure gotta purdy mouth" "Squeal boy, squeal!" Hope you don't run into any of that.
How come everybody I meet is a deer hunting expert?
