There is some public, but also a lot of private. It does also encompass the reservation which you cannot hunt. Majority of the deer will be found on private, but a person can still find some decent hunting on the public ground. If you have the type 3 tag for white-tail only they are almost exclusively found on private. Also very few of the land owners grant permission, though some will but may charge to. I drew the 120 type 1 this year and have never hunted it before but I know the area well, hopefully I can find a good buck as well! Good luck to you.
