I posted an inquiry about Unit 9 a week ago & have not gotten any suggestions. Am going up there Thursday & don't have any idea where to hunt. Can anyone help with suggestions about where to hunt??????????
Im taking my young Grandson & would sure like to see him get a chance at a nice buck!!
Thanks
 
Pruney,
Do you have any ideas for the coveted Southern region in Utah?
We broke out of our old stomping grounds for just a few minutes yesterday. Wow! Now I know where all the other folks hunt. We will be going back to the old stand by. Lots of little bucks being put down. It's sad! Well never no what they could have been. It would be nice to see them mature for a year or two.
Took a swing by Pete's on the way back into town. We saw to forkies and a couple of spikes that didn't clear their ears. I hope they have the smarts to stay put for three more days.
Did you send OldDuck to the pig hole?
 
I will save one of those little bucks by keeping my tag here in Cali. How much does a non-resident have to pay for a coveted Southern Region tag, assuming they draw? To bad I couldn't donate the tag to Make-A-Wish or something like it. SFW should work on that.

I think you should try behind Fin's House or in Evan's fields. You could try setting up a lawn chair in the bowl. I heard the little man could not get you to unload on a velvet forky. What more can you ask for?

I referred Old Duck to the area we saw the little bucks the last day we were there and down between telephone pond and the Hwy.
 
I will be up there this Thursday as well. I hunted the area two years ago but I am in the same baot as you. I haven't been up there since so it will be another learning experience.
 
LAST EDITED ON Oct-22-07 AT 10:40AM (MST)[p]The little man was all for taking the velvet forky. I'm packing my lever action, Winchester, model 94 30-30. The poor little buck was a good sixty yards out. I wasn't sure I could make a clean hit at that distance. Lol!
On the way home we stopped to let the boy fire his .410. He set up and was prepared to let some BB's fly when I noticed he was pointing his gun in an unsafe direction. I went over and started to explain the problem. He quickly took notice of the situation and said "ok dad, I'll just shoot over yonder." Meanwhile uncle spinks had wondered off into the brush to empty himself. The little guy spun around and lined out on Spinks.
It's a good thing he has had some training. He saw spinks and pointed the gun to the ground. He said " Dad, did you want me to shoot spinks?" Spinks was a ways off and the fact it was a .410, I suspect it would have been a less than lethal shot.
We had a good laugh over it. Well, everyone except uncle spinks. He didn't see the humor.
It's good you are having tag soup this year. I'm going to eat mine and so is Fin. I went out yesterday evening and spent time in an area we used to hunt. I saw well over 150 head of deer. I counted about five yearling bucks and nothing bigger than a 2x3. If your a deer on the Southern region "life is cheap!"
