I drew a G6 tag this year and been doing some research.
I live up near Modesto so I normally hunt D3-5 and D6. Never hunted D8 before so I've been on google maps and searching the forums.
Looks like most guys prefer to focus on the northern end of the unit, as its closer to the Golden Trout where the big boys come out of.
Seen some say focus off of sherman pass road and a few guys even said the Greenhorn area produces a lot of deer. (I believe it burned in 2016)
Any general tips from those with experience in the area are appreciated. I'll be camping there fourth of july weekend to familiarize myself with the area, with an additional scouting trip after D8 closes.
