Due to the amount of public land leading up to the borders of the Badlands National Park offering hunters a chance at harvesting a deer that is older than the average bucks that are typically found in the surrounding areas, this unit is fairly popular. With very broken terrain making up the bulk of the unit, there is an endless amount of cuts and ridgebacks for these deer to live, and ample opportunities for hours of productive glassing.

Given that this unit wraps around the Badlands National Park, it is not out of the question for a hunter to have an opportunity to harvest an exceptional mule deer or whitetail buck that wanders off of the sanctuary that the park provides.
