Bring your walking shoes, and start shooting long ranges. Unit 29 is tough to hunt but holds some good deer. If you put the leg work in and have the confidence to make a long shot you have a good chance of killing a big deer. Good luck.

Depends on which part of the season your hunting. In september water holes are your best bet, but january is the rut and your better off spotting a deer and getting in close. Get your face into the wind and put yourself close to the does.
