Dont be afraid to drive some of the checker board areas. There are some that border ag or areas with water - you can catch them transit through the public.
It's open out there, but take your time to glass under the few bushes, trees, or tall vegetation... you'll find deer. Some people work the caprocks, but I never had success out there.
Lots of dove out there to play around with too.

Like lostinthewoods said hit that checkerboard and little sections of state til you find deer up in the flats. Lions have decimated the deer herds in the Caprock.

Was a decent hunt was able to go out for 3 days with one of those days being scouting seen a bunch of small bucks on the scouting day. Didn’t see him until the last 2 hours of daylight and ended up getting lucky!
