My Dad and my Uncle both got deer last year in area 7. My Dad had hunted the same place before and spooked a nice size buck, so we tried the place again, but the weird thing was, I didn't see any rubs or scrapes at all, didn't look like a good place to hunt but we tried it anyway and Dad did end up getting a small buck there. Also, if you will be going on a quota gun hunt, stay away from the fields. Hunters will set up all around them. One of my uncles hunted on a field one time and there were 2 or 3 more hunters hunting all around that small field. It seems like the deer actually know when the quota hunts are occurring. Out of 3 or 4 years of hunting in LBL, last year was the only time that I actually saw deer while hunting. The deer seem to become nocturnal during the hunts. After the sun goes down, you will see many of deer along the roads.

I will be doing a lot of bow hunts there and I will put in for the quota as well, I hope to take a few in bow season as I hear there isnt a lot of pressure then.
