Idaho pan handle advise

[HillHound]

We will be headed to Idaho the 20th to chase whitetail. We will be staying just south of Bonner’s ferry. We have no private access. I was just wondering if there is a specific direction or road that might be better to start on? We have onx so we will be able to identify  huntable property. Just looking for any ideas on a direction to head and or access if someone has too many deer hanging around their property. We also have wolf tags. I will be bringing my quad due to the high amount of atv trails but really am not used to hunting off it so hopefully just using to get in somewhere or pack an animal out. Thanks in advance for any advise you want to give my brother and I to improve our first trip to Idaho

with whitetails they are spread everywhere from fields to 5,000'. Pick areas if you are not around ag fields that have some logged out areas. The deer use these as feed. Bring a grunt tube I have lost count how many bucks I have called in with a grunt tube.

Lots of whitetail on USFS land north of Moyie Springs, and southeast of Bonner's Ferry in the Clifty/Iron Mt. area.

Any recommendation on a grunt tube? Going to be in the panhandle hunting whitetail in a couple weeks for the first time as well.

Most of my experience has been south and southwest of your location but from what I have seen in the past what has been said is so true.  I have found whitetails from farmland to hill tops.  I have had best luck slowly walking logging roads and glassing.  If you can find some forest land above ag fields then just slowly cruz the roads or just inside the timber and the deer seem to cross back and forth all day long.

no almost all of them will do the job. Ive had the one I own now for over 10 years its a Drury MAD call has a snort wheeze on it also.

I've had a lot of success with a grunt tube that can do the hyperventilate grunts.  Knight and Hale made my favorite one, not sure if it is still in production.

No, the grunting sound a buck makes while he's running, grunt sounds inhaling and exhaling.

my favorite call to make is the tending grunt its series of short grunts with a second in between each grunt. I start calling in one direction and slowly turning head across  and using hands to deflect sound to sound like a buck walking and following a doe.
