La Bonte Creek offers a DIY whitetail doe hunting opportunity just south of Douglas, Wyoming, providing access to approximately 2,800 acres of private ranchland in Wyoming Deer Area 65, also known as Region J. This hunt is focused specifically on whitetail doe harvest, giving hunters the chance to fill doe tags in a large and lightly pressured setting. Nearly every deer license that can be drawn for this area is valid for harvesting a whitetail doe. Hunters should note that even if they possess a license valid for a whitetail buck, buck harvest is not permitted on this property. This opportunity is designed to help manage doe populations while still giving hunters flexibility with the tags they may already hold. The ranch has historically received very minimal hunting pressure, offering a true DIY experience where hunters can explore the property and develop their own approach to the hunt. All hunters must park at the single designated parking location and access the remainder of the property on foot. Please refer to the Infinite Outdoors app for exact parking details. To help minimize disturbance and maintain a quality experience, please limit vehicles at the parking area to no more than two. A mandatory harvest report will be sent to hunters following the conclusion of their hunt. This information helps track harvest success and contributes to responsible wildlife management on the property. NOTE: All hunters who book in November or December will be on the property at the same time as cattle. This should not impact the hunt or whitetail population, but you will need to be aware of gates, as well as cattle presence and location.

The La Bonte Creek property features a diverse mix of creek-bottom timber, open sage flats, rolling prairie hills, and agricultural fields, creating a landscape that supports a strong population of whitetail deer. While the entire 2,800 acres is fully huntable, the majority of whitetail activity tends to concentrate along the La Bonte Creek corridor, where mature trees, thicker vegetation, and reliable water provide ideal bedding and travel cover. These creek-bottom areas naturally funnel deer movement and serve as a central hub for daily activity. Several agricultural fields planted in oats and a hay/alfalfa mix provide consistent food sources on the property. These fields often act as feeding areas where deer move in and out of the creek bottom during morning and evening hours. The combination of food, water, and cover helps support a high population of whitetail deer on the ranch. Away from the creek, the property transitions into open sage flats and rolling hills that stretch across much of the landscape. While whitetail deer are less concentrated in these areas, they frequently use this terrain for travel routes, security cover, and movement between feeding and bedding areas, particularly when traveling between the creek bottom and surrounding country. In addition to whitetail deer, mule deer are also present on the property. However, mule deer harvest is not permitted, as they are reserved for landowner preference. Hunters should focus their efforts exclusively on whitetail does while enjoying access to a large and varied piece of private Wyoming ground.
