we drew AZ. unit 23 archery bull tags will be the first hunting AZ. if you have any info. we could use all the help we can get. Thanks J.C.
 
I imagine you drew the Nov. archery hunt. Don't waste your time scouting right now. Once the rut is over all the bulls drop down south to around oxbow mt and into the big canyons. I hunted the unit a few years ago and saw an awesome bull but didn't get a shot at it. And passed a shot at a 4 pt. It is still fun to go up during the rut and watch the bulls. During the rut they are all around Christopher Creek and Colcord. I will be camping just outside Christopher Creek this weekend and will be going out to see what is around. I will give you somemore info when I have more time. If you are interested in hiring anybody I would try to get in touch with a guy named Pete Davis. He lives in Forest Lakes. He may be able to hook you up better. I'm sure you've seen the success rate. That's why it was a 50% draw odds last year.
 
AZbowhuntr yes I did get the Nov. hunt and thanks for the reply I can,t do a guided hunt I have 5 grandkids to help with and can barely aford to make the trip. if you have any info. on areas for me to look into that would be great. thanks again J.C.

Congrats on a great tag. Two of my buddies drew that unit last year and you could say they had some success without a guide.

great bulls. what did that top bull score? Was that the Nov archery hunt or early rifle/ muzzleloader hunt?
 
JC, where are you coming from and are you going to be able to do any scouting? If not I would find some topo's of the oxbow mt and haigler creek areas and find every tank you can. Find the deep canyons that run to the tanks. There will be a lot of pressure on the tanks because there will be 125 hunters with the same idea. Those were a couple nice bulls that leftees friends got. Lots of the bulls will be broken up because they had been fighting over the cows during the rut. Email me by clicking on my email link after my name if would like. I will try to look and some of my topo's and give you some specifics later. Good luck, Orlin
