Like previously said....time is money. However, if you are prepared to drop $7-10K just for their services, how is $10-25 dollars even something to complain about?!

>Just sign your tag over to >me... No deer there man... > Ha! I grew up hunting the Sandias....although since it has become a draw its been about 10 years since I have been up there. I know better than that!!

Any successful youth hunters in the Sandias this year? I watched one youngster walk right past 2 bucks last weekend, and another one attempt to get close to two bucks only to get busted! Heard of a few get hit but never recovered. I have the hunt in January so hopefully they saved me one!!!

You do understand that you will pay the same price in the store as online right?! If its 99 bucks online....thats what you will pay in the store!

Like others have said...you can pretty much drive down any road in 16A, park, walk in the woods a half mile and you should be seeing elk. Maybe not giant bulls around every tree, but they are in there and definitely take some work to find. What are your expectations for the hunt? Are you...

Its definitely worth having a tag!! Water is probably your best bet without dogs.....although 2 years ago we could have killed 8 different bears in 7 days of our elk hunt with our bows just walking around on our elk hunt.

The rut is something that is totally dependent on area and when the cows go into estrus. Like stated above, generally (this term is used very loosely) you can usually count on the bulls being pretty active in late September and into early October. Bugles will definitely be heard in early Sept...

Will be following this one.....I drew the same hunt and am starting to try and get some homework done!!

Do you have a daytime picture to compare it to? I see spots too, but the head and size throw a curveball!

I don't know about B since it is mostly wilderness, but I noticed a huge difference in A! Where we camped and hunted during the 3 hunt season, there was usually only 1 or 2 other camps, last year there was 8! This was during the first hunt, and it thinned out a little near the end of the hunt...

Been hunting 16 for elk the last several years and always see some really nice bucks during our elk hunts!
