- GOHUNT maps are key for public/private land access




This large unit is rather remote considering there are no major towns located throughout. The two main hubs are the small townships of Philip and Midland located in the southern end of the unit. The Bad River is the major drainage in the unit, but overall is not a dominating terrain feature as the overall vastness of the prairie and smaller breaks throughout swallow it up. There is virtually no public land in this unit and a very small amount of walk-in access so a DIY hunt is not going to be a viable option for this unit. Hunters will need permission to hunt private before planning a hunt here. There is great access throughout the unit with major highways running in all directions across the unit as well as many county roads coming off of the highways. There is a healthy population of whitetail in this unit with pockets of mule deer throughout.
With very limited public access there are few hunters headed to this unit without a plan around hunting some private property.
