Is there any talk about changing looking at all 5 hunt codes when your number is drawn, and maybe only looking at 1-2 hunt choices and then moving on to the next application? Looking at draw odds, Nevada is one tough state to draw for a non resident. Probably the first state I will give up on...

I have followed the two late archery threads, here on MM, just wondering what everyone is hearing on how the hunts went. I only know of on tag holder and he did not kill. What is everyone else hearing, and if you had a tag, what were your thoughts on this hunt. I actually put in for one of...

Curious how the quail population are in these counties this year? With the good moisture are the numbers higher than normal? Thank you

If anyone hunted these units for elk this year, I would be interested in how your hunt went. I have max points and trying to find some current first hand knowledge on how the hunt was this year. Thank you

My daughter drew this tag, I am having very little luck finding any information out about this unit. I have an offer to go guided, but would rather not. Live way to far away to do any pre-scouting. What are the chances of us finding elk if we do not go guided? I have hunted elk my whole...

Would travel be to far to use a motel for elk hunting in unit 17? My daughter drew the youth muzz hunt, and deciding whether to camp with a tent or get a motel? What town would be best? Magdelena? Thanks

I have max elk points. I have been putting in for units 31, or 124 over the year. I really want to focus on archery to kill my elk. Guided hunt is not an option at this time. Wondering if anyone has suggestions on other units I should be looking into? I have studied unit 62 and been...

Did anyone attend last night that would like to recap the meeting? I am mostly wondering about permit recommendations. Did they just approve what was recommended, or did they change some of the recommendations. Thank you Also, would be interested how other regional rac meetings went.

Going to be doing a high country hunt in a few weeks. Weather could be cold or warm. Wanting to buy a couple of sets of clothing that would work best for this hunt. Anyone have any recommendations that wont break the bank? I probably should but refuse to pay $200 for a pair of pants. Thank you

Headed over with my 13 year old daughter Saturday afternoon for 4 days of hunting. I have the areas we are going to try. Any last minute advise would be welcome. Hoping for at least a 3 year old buck for her.

If an area on my ON X says Colorado state trust lands-no public access, does that mean I cannot trespass at all on that area, or there is no way to drive on it? Can I walk in access it from BLM ground? Thank you

Wondering what the quail numbers are looking like in the Mesquite-Logandale area? Average, above average or below average? Thanks

Going to make a quick trip to 61 for 2 days of hunting archery elk this weekend, then will head back later in the hunt. Just wondering what the bugling was like this weekend? Any signs of rut? Thank you

Copied out of the handbook. "And don't forget: you may harvest an antlerless elk while hunting general-season buck deer or bull elk, as long as your permits are for the same area and you use the weapon type listed on your general-season permit". My question. My son had a cow hunt the first of...

I did not realize that I could try and pick up a bear tag since I drew unit 61 archery elk. What are all your suggestions about picking up a bear tag? worth it? should I just concentrate on Elk after waiting 22 years? I will be headed over to check the unit over next week. Anyone...

I finally drew a 61 archery elk tag. I am thinking about taking the family on a little vacation towards the end of July to check it out. Besides spending some time on 61, what are some other places we could visit while there. We are thinking about taking the train one day from Durango to...

Just wondering what everyone is seeing as far as if their were a lot of boot tracks made before the season started. The one area I like to hunt there were plenty of wheeler/motorcycle tracks prior to the opener. This is in a wilderness study area also, tracks drive right between the two signs...

Can someone give me some people to call about a drop camp for archery elk in 76? approximate cost? Will they let me choose where I want to go? I have plenty of points to draw. I have never been on a drop camp. What do they usually provide? Thank you

Back in the late 90's when we started putting in for Colorado elk it took 6 or 7 points to draw 61, well now that I am at 22 points it looks like I am finally in the running for a tag. Thinking of what time off work I have, and wondering what week would be the best to hunt? The week before the...

They start hunting cow elk in some units August 1st and end January 31st. Other units they start around Oct. 1st and go until January 31st. The pressure on these animals, and the deer living in these areas is incredible. I used to go see numerous good bucks during the rut, now the cow hunts...

I am a max point holder. Going to put in for one of these units. Want to hunt with a bow for the most part. Would like to hunt 320+ bulls. Is there much difference in these units? Is one better for archery hunting than the others? I know the odds are still not good even with max, but...

I have asked multiple people on this site about these hunts, so I thought I would give feedback on the hunt I had. Let it be known that I am not a great hunter, but I try and work hard when I hunt. I decided this year was the year to burn 13 points on 4th season. Talking to guys who hunted...

Any information on how the deer faired in these units this winter? Struggling on whether to burn my 13 points or not. still considering unit 55 third. What are your thoughts between 61 3rd or 70 4th? Thank you.

A few years ago, there was constant updates on the transplant mule deer study in Utah. There were moving the deer from the Parowan area to the Fillmore area. Later they moved some deer from Antelope Island to different areas also. Has there been any follow up on this study? I followed it...

I am trying to decide which season I want to hunt next year. I have 13 non-resident points, so I have a lot of options available. My question is which season to concentrate on. I have never hunted the 4th season hunt. I see advantages to both. a longer 3rd season, first shot at bucks, the...

Hoping for a little advice on finding a unit to hunt. I want to for sure hunt 3rd or 4th season next year. I have 12 non resident points. I do not want to have to deal with a lot of private. I hate wondering if I am on private or public. I like areas I can glass. I do not need to see a lot...

Try to decide which of these units to put in for this year. I am a max point holder. Odds are pretty similar. I would like to concentrate on the archery hunt as much as possible. Looking for a 320+ bull, would rather call bulls then sit water. The fewer the people the better. Any...

My son has 6 points for elk and will be headed to college next year. I would like to take him on a good archery hunt, before he gets to involved in schooling. Looking at the points it takes to draw, he could probably draw either of these hunts. Would any one be willing to give me info on...

Does anybody know the approximate tag numbers for these new Hunts? Are we talking 2 or 3 tags per unit or more like 10 to 20. Thx

So is there a shed hunting season in place starting January? Can someone tell me where I can read the regulations? I cannot seem to find them.

Its been a long time since I have hunted pheasants. I may give it a whirl this year. I remember that the official starting time used to be 8:00 the first morning. I just looked in the regulations and can not see anything that states this to be the rule. Can anybody tell me the rule for sure...

I have heard there is a deer committee meeting today to discuss making new limited entry deer units. If so, I would sure like to know who was invited and what was discussed.

Anybody shot one of these? What do you think about it? I swore I would never own a .17, but this new one has got me curious.

Anybody know 2015 3rd season deer dates.? I am wondering if they will fall back next year.

I cannot seem to find the season dates for deer hunts this year. I can find the 2013 season dates. Does anyone happen to know the dates? I am most interested in Archery dates, Most of the dates last year were on Aug. 10th. I know that Nevada starts the same day every year, but this year...

I know some of you are not big supporters of the new mentoring program. I am a big supporter. This past year, I gave my tag to my 10 year old son to hunt Deer in AZ, and it was an awesome experience. However, I just read the rules in the guide book for the mentoring program, and I am not a...

I have a general question I would like to ask someone. If you know this area would you please pm me. Thx

Do any of you have suggestions for good hunting radio's?

I just want to say that any of you who have kids over the age of 8, and younger at times, that are leaving your kids at home while you hunt, then you are missing out on one of the most rewarding times of your life. I feel so bad for some of the kids I see whose dad will not take them hunting...

Just wanted to write a post about our hunt on the early Kiabab. First of all, I want to say what a pleasure it was to hunt with all the hunters that were there. I am absolutely amazed at the friendliness and courtesy of the Az hunters. We never had one problem with other hunters. It is not...
