Well guys I will be hunting #901 North pretty hard this year, I haven't seen a thread specifically for Bois D'Arc yet so I figured I would get one rolling. Anyone else going to be up there this year?

I did a lot of post season scouting last year, I found what I believe are some pretty promising spots for this season, I'm excited to get out there. Ill be out there opening week for sure with my new saddle. I was disappointed to see a few piles of corn, powdered rows of rage/crush and a mineral block though, and some permanent screw in stand locations... hope this isn't any of you guys on here!

This is inevitable on public land. Sad. I found many bait piles at LBJ and Caddo. Some hunters need to learn to take their stands with them as well when the leave.

Imagine one guy trying to take care of an 18,00 acre ranch.

Thanks for the heads up, ill have to check it out. I keep saying im going to try that chuckwagon place on 78 and 1396 every time I go by but I never have.

Your post in the other Caddo thread has me thinking hard about Bois D'Arc and the 901 North Unit.
"So I called and talked to the guy who runs the harvest reporting, he said that the deer population is only like 1 deer per 157 acres. No does were harvested at all last season, and only 16 bucks were taken between Ladonia and Bois De Arc COMBINED. 9 of which were taken during rifle season opener and checked at the mandatory deer check stations in person. "
Were these statistics were from 2019/2020's whitetail season? If so, it sounds like 901 North is going to make for a trying season..

so what is the 901 unit? I was up there this past weekend scouting but have no idea of any of the unit numbers?
Edit: Nevermind, didn't realize the whole Bois D'Arc was 901N. I found a map with unit numbers, I was up in unit 19 off 2325. Wasn't impressed with the amount of deer sign I found, I covered about 3 miles and found mostly pig sign, and spotted 5 or 6 of them. If you want to shoot some pigs, that's a good spot.Last edited by OrangeBlood; 09-22-2020, 01:34 PM.
