If you’re lucky enough to draw in unit 4A, there’s some exceptional opportunities for both mule and whitetail deer. The majority of this unit is rough badlands. There is a good amount of public access areas, providing hunters with excellent options to hunt throughout the unit. Overall, if you’ve drawn a mule deer tag, they can be found throughout this unit, but the majority of herds tend to stick to the Little Missouri River valley and the Little Missouri National Grassland. If you have a whitetail tag, the Killdeer Mountains WMA has been a hotspot in recent years.

If you’re able to find a good spot near Theodore Roosevelt National Park, and wait patiently for something to cross off of the park’s property and onto huntable property, you could be rewarded with a B&C trophy.
