My hunting partner has 12 non-resident elk points going into this year's draw and will be putting in for an archery tag. Last year I drew a Monroe archery tag and killed a very nice bull in the 340 range. He had originally planned to go back there this year since we learned the unit pretty well and saw some pretty nice bulls. One of the things he's looking for is a quality hunt with not so many people running around, and he's now concerned that there will be too many hunters with the new spike rules.
With 12 NR points he should be in the running for most of the better LE archery hunts. Right now he's leaning towards San Juan but is still unsure. I believe he's thinking that San Juan won't see as many general season hunters due to the distance from most of the hunters in Utah Valley. What's the opinion out there on bowhunting San Juan? We probably won't be able to do much if any, pre-season scouting due to distance and time (we're from Idaho). Also what other units do you guys think bear consideration?
