Have never been hunting there. We live a couple hours south of there and really never had to go to far from home. Kids sports schedule is usually tight when rifle season comes along but we still get a day or so for my son to hunt. That is why I muzzleload. My 15 year old son filled his doe tag. He still has his regular tag. We actually have a weekend off and we are going to just take off to a unit open for late buck. Spur of the moment kind of thing, whatever. Going to pack a tent but prepared to stay at a hotel if one is near by wherever we end up, don't matter mom is not with us so we go wherever we feel like. Thought I'd start by republic area and go from there. Not asking for secret spots but a general idea of where to start. We are experienced hunters and looking at areas that are new to us. WE ARE NOT WESTSIDERS!
