Unit 27 Late Bull

With the crazy number of tags they give out for that hunt, i?m not sure how helpful a scouting service would be. After the first morning, the elk will likely be in a different area due to unmatched pressure.

If you do use a service, you may want to ask for some spots that far from roads/trails and hard to hike to. That may be your best bet to kill a nice one. If your happy with any bull, they are everywhere.
 
amazing they give out nearly 500 tags for that hunt yet the random odds under 5%. Just a reminder hunting is a dying sport. Congrats on a good draw. Good luck

This!

I had that tag a few years ago. Had some good intel and was able to scout for 5 days before. Spiked out with my dad and son on some good bulls I found. Froze our asses off! Woke up and headed up the trail to spot the bulls and all the sudden were over run by 3 guys on horses with 3 mules headed right to where we were going. Everywhere I went to try and get away from them they would come trampling up. I ended up packing out frustrated as hell and they shot a 340" bull. Spent the entire hunt just trying to get away from people. Never again.

when I was growing up in AZ,in the mid 1960s my dad and uncles would take us mulie hunting in unit 27, in the 4 years years we went. we saw no more than 5 others, one was a game warden the other 4 were a horse hunting group, that stopped at the camp for conversation. I haven't been back there for about 40 years. A hunt in zone 27 is on my bucket list, think I will only apply for late hunt.
