First of all, I'm new to this website and forum, but not new to hunting or hunting forums.
How is the access to public land in Idaho Unit 73? It seems like most of the mountain ranges are surrounded by private land. Are there any roads or trails across the private ground to access the public land? I have a son-in-law that wants to start hunting and a 16 year old son who hasn't hunted deer much. I'm considering putting them in for this unlimited controlled hunt for deer. Neither of them is looking for a trophy, and both would be thrilled with seeing deer, and having a decent chance at harvesting a buck. I have a GPS and the onXmaps land ownership chip for Idaho. I also have good topographical maps of the unit. I think this would be a good unit for them to see deer and have opportunities at bucks. What are your thoughts? Any information is greatly appreciated.
ps. can anybody tell me how to add an avatar/profile photo?
