I'm planning on a hunt for deer in unit 23 and was wondering if anyone has hunted this unit in the last couple of years. Are the deer numbers ok, or did they get hit hard by the winter of 07/08? Will there be a ton of other hunters in the unit? Is it worth picking up an elk tag? I've hunted units 12 & 35 in the past, but it's been several years.

Feel free to send a PM or email you like. Not looking for specific areas, as I've already got an area picked out that I'm planning on hunting. Just looking for an overview of the unit from someone who has hunted it in the last couple of years.

Thanks,
Jody
 
23 gets pounded during all seasons. You can find a few deer just depends when you hunt. Archery, muzzy are best but dont plan on seeing much. More elk than deer.

Born2hunt,
Thanks for thr reply. I kind of figured that 23 would get a fair amount of pressure. That is the way it was in unit 12 also. I'm currently trying to build some points and figured that I'd be able to draw this unit as a 2nd choice. Sounds like having an elk tag will be a good idea.

I'll be spending a lot of time between now and October looking at maps of the unit to try to find a few places where I can get well in off the roads. Good luck in the drawings and in your hunting next fall.

Thanks,
Jody
