Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

I have been putting in for Vernon for the past three years but I am thinking about jumping to San Juan or the Book Cliffs.
Has anyone hunted any of these units this year?
If so, what kind of success did you have?
Thanks for any info in advance!
 
RE: Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

Of the 3 I cannot tell you which one to do, only the one not to do and that is Vernon.

I would say your chances of doing better on a general unit would be 50/50. Not worth your 3 points.
 
RE: Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

REMEMBER!!!

THERE ARE NO 350+ BULLS ON THE SAN JUAN!!!

I BELIEVE I'D TRY VERNON OR THE BOOK CLIFFS!!!

ktc TOLD ME ABOUT ANOTHER AREA WHERE THERE ARE NO 350+ BULLS!!!

THE ONLY bobcat HOPING TO DRAW AN LE ELK TAG WITHIN THE NEXT TWO YEARS,AS YOU KNOW TIMES ARE CHANGING,NOT FOR THE GOOD,AND REMEMBER,LE UNITS WERE NEVER SET UP FOR THE AVERAGE JOE BLOW,NOR WERE THEY SET UP FOR EVERY HUNTER WANTING TO SHOOT A 300 CLASS BULL!!!

I STUCK MY PAW IN MY MOUTH!!!

THE ONLY bobcat!!!
 
RE: Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

Geez bessy, I think you are more worked up over this elk stuff than me. Probably because I have a snowballs chance in hell to draw over the next few years.:) That definitely pisses a few people off.

Elk, well I can tell everyone where not to put in for elk too. Pahvant rifle rut. Why? Because that is where I am putting in, my brother too, so if ya don't have max points you just lost 2 chances. ;-)

Hell, there might be more elk in Vernon than deer. It is a sorry sight out on the desert my friends. Saw more turkeys than deer.
 
RE: Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

I am more of an elk hunter than deer hunter but I am on my waiting period for elk. I drew Wasatch in 2001. I wish I hadn't now, lots more monster bulls up there. I had max points.
 
RE: Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

Are you lookin for deer or elk info ? I drew the bitter cr book cliffs deer tag this year and had one of the best hunts I've had in 31 years of hunting.
 
RE: Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

If you are a patient Hunter and are not afraid of getting off your 4 wheeler, then Vernon is great. A little time scouting helps too. Most of the unit is very accessable with a vehicle, but those of us who live here watch great deer year round. Not a year has passed since it opened that a few gorgeous bucks have been taken. Dont be afraid, unless you are lazy, then be very afraid, many are. Good luck with drawing and having a fun hunt.
 
RE: Vernon, San Juan or Book Cliffs

I have herd good things about the Vernon and San Juan units, you probably could not go wrong with either if you know what you are doing.

My son drew a Book Cliffs Muzzy tag last year and we had a real quality hunting experience.I will send you a pic if you can let me know your e-mail address.
