Hi,
I know this is kind of late notice but we are getting a little desperate to fill my son Jagger's first deer tag. He got drawn for hunt 1307 in the GMU 163 for anterless from nov. 1-12. We are going to stay up there in the dayton area this weekend and are looking for any advice. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Should be easy enough.  You got OnX?  There's some ground at the bottom of the Hartsock grade that's like a reserve thing you can hunt, should be able to find a deer on it.  Post pics if you get one!

Basinguy:
yeah I got onx... it's a huge help and I can't believe I waited until this year to get it.
I have hunted early and late archery up there and wow, I couldn't believe the difference it was from early season to late season.
what do you guys think I should do: drive around glassing tree lines, set up a ground blind on the side of a tree line and just hope that something pops out, or walk tree lines and push the deer out hopeing that one will stop at 100 yards and allow us to get set up with our shooting sticks for a shot?

I've been on a handful of doe hunts, #1 thing is don't overthink it.  Drive around and glass the public land til you find deer
