Gus Engeling Compartments
Thanks, I guess you never know what you'll see till you're there. I'm going regardless, too many times of not getting drawn. It's a big place and it's spike/antlerless hunt, so not worried too much on passing up a shot. Some of the compartments are quite open (cleared) like #20, #3, #4, and #9...Anyone hunt those? I walked #1, #2 and #8 and #9. Saw plenty of hog sign and a few deer tracks.
One thing I learned on the phone is that they will try to assign compartments according to the size of your group, but they do let you put in your preference for a compartment before they assign you one.

They will also put you in a compartment with another group or hunter! Last year they had maps and you submit your top 3 choices and they try to accommodate based off group size and compartment size. I was in a compartment by myself but it was 80% flooded. I saw hogs walking out, no deer but there were tracks all over. Tough hunt but I enjoyed it and was very happy to get drawn again this year. My tip: sit all day, but I believe that to be true at every drawn hunt location. You can't see / shoot something if you aren't there!!!
