My lease is on the river North of Telephone down to the northwestern edge of the grasslands. We kill deer every year so I know you'll see deer. Back when I hunted the grasslands years ago there wasn't a whole lot of pressure from other hunters but I did have a problem with the PETA crowd. They'd drive in from the metroplex and piss and shit all around out stands.
Also, there is an asshole anti-government nut job who owns a hundred acres or so bordering the East side of the gov't land. He is infamous in the area for harassing hunters.
I went up there for a few years but havent been in a few. Saw one doe. Locals start hunting a bit early up there so you need to be stalking to see much up there. You also need to get in deep.
