i get two of the left over permits and hunt DLSP almost every year. some days there seems to be a lot of hunters and other days not so many, like other state lands. most times the deer are in a hurry when you see them. in case you dont know, you will need the free park permit that is availible at the kiosk located at the main office on HARLOW RD. you can get the permit any time of day or night as the kiosk is outside. also there is an a small area east of eleven mile creek that is BOW ONLY. you can get a map when you get your permit that shows all. most years a few really big bucks are taken. good luck.
