There's a place I go where public ground backs up to private and I can kill a decent white tail every time I hike in. No one else will go back in there because they don't want to work that hard for a whitetail. There is something uniquely satisfying about a 7 mile or so round trip to shoot a deer that most only want to put a foot outside their truck to shoot.



I used to do a lot of hike-in-hunts when I was younger and lived closed to some bigger pieces of public land. I really enjoyed it.
