Agree with Steiner - another factor making public land attractive according to species you are after are local personal preferences. For years we grouse hunted public lands in NYS and never saw a pickup or SUV with dog crates in the back. All the locals cared about was deer hunting (first on their list) and those that wanted turkey hunting were truly fanatics about it. I asked a local one time why they never tried for grouse, he said "Dogs flush them all before you're ready to shoot and no one eats them anyway, so why bother?"
