There is very little state land and walk-in access in this unit, without prior arrangements to access a piece of private land there is very little opportunity to hunt here
Located in the south-central part of the state, this unit is not going to be the best fit for DIY hunters who don’t have a relationship with a landowner as there is virtually no public land in the entire unit outside of a very small amount of state land, and very limited walk in access areas.
The terrain is fantastic and offers some incredible habitat for both whitetails and mule deer with miles and miles of small tree lined creek bottoms, and broken CRP.
