Oklahoma is hitting the peak season for deer hunting and the 16-day deer-gun season is just a little over a week away.

A lot of people have been hunting since October 1st, but next weekend and the days that follow will be the busiest of the season.

For those who don't have a place to hunt on private property, there are plenty of public land opportunities.

Public hunting in northeast Oklahoma:

1. Cherokee PHA
2. Copan WMA
3. Deep Fork WMA
4. Ft Gibson PHA
