Kansas whitetail

[Aaron KS197]

Question for you guys. I have never hunted Kansas but it's on my bucket list. Is there any good public land or are you just pissing in the wind. Do any land owners allow trespass fees or would I be better off hiring. An outfitter? Any suggestions on a good outfitter? Bucket list hunt

Western Kansas has a good amount of public land and walk-in hunting areas. Some of the largest deer I have seen are on Walk-in hunting areas during the pheasant season.

Got it done on public land. Still not seeing much on the lease. Will go back in winter for my doe.

I can tell you one thing, if you shoot a deer in early muzzleloader season you better be wearing off. I bet I picked off 50 ticks. Didn’t take my pack frame bc I can drive up to a deer on my lease. Wasn’t prepared to make multiple trips for a public land deer.

@Sowhntr congratualtions!

Permethrin for the win versus ticks

I usually bow hunt kansas every year. Got family that owns almost 20,000 acres around the Pittsburgh area.

I grew up around Pittsburg, most of my family is still there. Wonder if I know your family.

Anyone hunting Kansas this year? If so good luck! Was lucky enough to draw another muzzleloader tag. I was the only one from our group last year. I am one of those guys,”I paid for a lease.” However; I have some nice wiha around me I keep a close eye on. Should be another good year with all the rain.

Just got back to Texas from Kansas on a 7 day archery hunt. This one came in on last day.
