Idaho deer question

[Tbob]

Hey all,
    So my nephew told me that he’d like to give some deer hunting a try. I’m super stoked to take this upstanding young man out. He’s got limited time, but we discussed it and we’re going to put in for Idaho with the new draw system for non-residents. I’ve never hunted Idaho but always wanted too and I’m just trying to show my nephew a fun time out (camping, being in the woods, learning some skills). I’ve picked out 2 units to put in for so far (unit 39 and unit 28). We’re trying to focus mostly on Mule deer we decided. Can any of you guys point me in the right direction for our other 3 unit choices for the draw? Not looking for specific spots, just a descent general season gmu or two to show this kid a good time.. I definitely appreciate any advice or insights yall can offer. Thanks so much and good luck to everyone in the ID drawing!! Feel free to PM me if you’re not comfortable discussing GMU’s on here.. 👍

How old is your nephew?

He’s 20 years old. He’s a hard working young man.. right out of high school he got his journeyman electricians license and works his tail off. I think we can get out for a week next year and just starting some planning just in case we draw a unit.

I wouldn’t describe unit 39 as a fun time. Pick a unit with less hunters

39 is packed now, I ditched a good area last year because of too many people and lack of good bucks. Lots of little bucks, but I'm pretty much done with 39.

With all of the recent immigration to the Treasure Valley, I am not surprised to hear this.
