no deer in bankhead, you should spend your time elsewhere,  If I remember correctly Southwood’s #1 tip (from his hunting tips 101 video) is to ask around for good hunting spots. I think he even used Bankhead as an example. Oh, and no better place than aldeer to get these free prime huntings spots. No scouting needed. the easiest and most reliable way is to download onX maps. the other way to do it is to use a GPS and download an overlay for the NF/WMA boundaries. I use the GPS method on google earth for desktop, save to google drive, import to google earth app on phone, viola, boundaries.

I have moved to the Jasper area and want to hunt Bankhead forest, but it looks to me like it is fragmented by private land. Is private land posted? How can I be sure I'm not off the forest property? Thanks! OnX is the answer for sure. I’ve never hunted Bankhead but I’m sure like other public lands some private property is marked better than others.
The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life.

I live 5 miles from Bankhead. I would give up deer hunting if Bankhead was the only place I had to go.Big deer but they are few and far between. Much better hunting in the valley. Better be in good shape to hunt the Bankhead Forest.

Better be in good shape to hunt the Bankhead Forest. You need to find better spots in Bankhead. We have a couple that are jam up and no I won’t share locations. I’ll give you a little advice though. We have much better luck on smaller properties.

I’ve lived here all my life. I know some good spots. I see way more deer in the Valley. You can hunt for days and not see anything in Bankhead. I live 5 miles from Bankhead. I would give up deer hunting if Bankhead was the only place I had to go.Big deer but they are few and far between. Much better hunting in the valley.
