I was lucky enough to draw unit 6A in AZ this year--the archery rut hunt. I actually figured out I had an AZ tag from the stack of outfitter soliictations I received before I even saw the tag. Anyway, I am from Nevada and looking to do it myself. Never been to this part of AZ so I am working maps, the internet and AZ fish and game right now. My plan is to split time between chasing bugles and sitting water. I have a few questions and would welcome any input. I would be glad to help out anyone with Nevada info if I can (Full disclosure--I hunt northern NV a lot but I do not have a lot of knowledge about the south). My questions are . . .
I plan to fly down in August and pre-scout before I drive down for the hunt in Sept. Is it realistic to use a regular rental car for s scouting trip or do I need to think about a 4x4?
Is there a protocol for hunting water? I know nobody owns the tanks and my personal feeling is you should not be able to put your name on 5 water tanks and claim you are hunting them all season; that is just not realistic or fair but I would like to hear from someone who has been there.
I have used treestands for elk but the stand I have is not a "climber". Any thoughts on how difficult it may be to place a treestand?
It looks like there are a lot of tags and I would like to get away from the crowds. Any recommendations on a good jumping off point. I have killed elk with my bow in the wilderness so using my feet instead of a truck or a quad is right up my alley.
Thanksin advance for any thoughts or comments. As I mentioned, post or pm me if I can help anyone in NV.
