I hunted unit B last year for mule deer and antelope the very few whitetails i seen in the units you have listed where near ag fields and waterways. All on private land too.
Make it enjoyable and include them. But dont ever push it and give them a bad experience. If theyre cold or tired of walking it's time to call it,Remember it's not about you.
My wife and I had a great hunt there last fall. Seen 2 bucks larger than the one I harvested. We did alot of scouting before we seen the buck I wanted to shoot. This was on BLM land. Fortunately most of the hunters we ran into were only antelope hunting.
