I haven' t hunted it in 2 years now because I am on a club down below there.I have killed many deer on the refuge through the years with bow,muzzleloader and rifle.but the last couple of years I hunted there I didn' t see but 2 deer and that was in the muzzleloading season.
The best thing is to get a map all the stores used to sell them and scout,it is a big place with lots of little blocks to hunt on.The last time I hunted it there wasn' t as many people as there usually are.I try to avoid them and get off to my self but that is hard to do there.I killed the biggest and most deer along the river in the part that has the camp ground on highway 109.
If you check out the kill report in the hunting laws you can see how many was likked on game land and private land.
Good luck hope you get a big one.
