    First day numbers

    My son and I will be at Salt Fork this afternoon and through Saturday if we can stand the rain that is forecast. I had a similar situation last year at Salt Fork. Son and I were sitting together and had been there all day. About 3:30pm three guys stroll right through and walk past us saying...

    Salt Fork Golf Course

    That was probably us parked in the small lot. We hunted the area in front of that lot (bordered by the marina road) in the morning. In the afternoon I dropped my son off down by the maintenance road so it could of been him you saw walking in. I was going to park in that maintenance area but...

    Salt Fork Golf Course

    At the drawing I recall the ranger saying that they never opened the golf course up for hunting until January and they changed that this year. Again, you may be correct - maybe once it gets really cold and the pressure drops off, things may improve. I was thinking it would be nice for them to...

    Salt Fork Golf Course

    Thats part of the problem - so much available hunting location. My rule of thumb now is you should probably hunt someplace that I am not. Your luck won't be worse :)

    Salt Fork Golf Course

    Could very well be the case. It is going to get cold next week and we are going to give it a shot Tues/Wed so maybe that will help - who knows. I'm taking a buddy who has never been there. My guess is he will get one right of the bat and I'll sit there scratching my head. I am sure the golf...

    Salt Fork Golf Course

    We saw the same couple hunters two weekends in a row - nobody else. One of the guys shot a doe and all said they saw a few deer. We ended up hunting on the golf course - there are pockets of woods around the course and I stayed in the woods most of the time. Though I think it would be...

    Salt Fork Golf Course

    Went ok. Got to our spots about 3pm. Between my son and I we saw 15 deer between 3:00 - 5:30. At least two good size bucks and the rest were does. Everything we saw was just a little far too far away... Went back today and didn't see a thing from 6:30-11:00. It was very windy and that...

    Bowhunting Public Land for Youth

    I hunt Salt Fork regularly - public hunting areas. Saw plenty of deer last year - nothing this year in the few days I have been in the woods.

    Salt Fork Golf Course

    Hi everyone. Long time visitor - first time posting! Headed out this afternoon to hunt at Salt Fork. Was fortunate enough to get selected for their controlled archery hunt. Both zones opened up this week so I am going to try my luck on the golf course. Didn't see a deer during 2 1/2 days...
