Central Mountains, manti archery deer tag in August

BuckshotBenny · Jul 29, 2017

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum and have a question for anyone with any knowledge of the Central Mountains/manti unit in Utah.

I'm from AZ so i'm an out of stater and need a little guidance of the closet spot in the Unit from AZ. It's a really big unit and my group was hoping for something shorter than a 10 hour drive.

We normally hunt Monticello but a few guys in our group pulled this tag 2 years ago so I already have some info on the unit. It seems skyline drive is most people's boogie for this unit.

Is there any place that's just west of Monticello going up the 95 that will have Bucks?

Any info would be much appreciated.

The unit boundary is a long ways from Monticello. You better do some checking before you hunt.

LAST EDITED ON Jul-30-17 AT 02:31PM (MST)[p]I guess I should clarify. I know exactly where the unit is in relation to Monticello. I guess I shouldn't have referenced it. As I was"checking", the only info I found was that pretty much everyone is hunting Skyline drive, North or south on it. The unit is huge so my question was is there an alternative to hunting skyline on the south end of the unit so I wouldn't have to go to the central part of the unit?

The area east of highway 10 has a very low density of game compared to the other portions of the unit. The area above the town of emery has a lot of private parcels intermixed with public land so it can be tricky to find good areas. You may have to commit to a longer drive to have a higher chance of getting on some bucks. PM me if you would like some specific suggestions depending on how you are planning on coming from AZ
