I don't like to road hunt and want to get away from the crowds
Then stay away from Broadus/Powder River. 
Aint that the truth... You think hunting in WA gets crowded, go to Broadus in November.
The ranch we hunted was restricted BMA (only allowed so many sign-ins a day) and provided endless acres to hunt that didn't allow vehicle access. 
Oh I'm not doubting you in any way ! Just saying it gets packed in majority of places. We found a state section that hadnt seen much traffic and my buddy took a young buck off of it but generally speaking it gets pretty ridiculous that time of year.
Thats why I always try and hunt the beginning of the season. Usually not a soul to be found, bucks are in more of a routine still, and you get first crack at the big guys! This year will be my first year hunting late as my Colorado tag will be during the week we normally go. I think places like Broadus, Malta, Terry, Jordan, and a few others are hammered and crowded the whole season though. Like I said before, that buck was living in the only depression in a 4 mile radius, it was all just flattish prairie grass that most over look for deer. Probably the only reason he was still alive.
