I can't believe it with no points for deer and max points for Antelope and Elk my son and I thought we might actually draw an Antelope tag after 40 years or the Elk. But no we drew a X9-a Deer tag with no points. I still don't believe it but we are hunting again in California.

Anybody got any feed back on the zone I will be scouting and fishing up there all summer to see what I can find.

PM Hunt4more. Hope I am not over stepping but if anyone can help ya out-this would be your go to guy.
 
You should have a good hunt. They are not handing out very many tags and it’s a huge unit. If you are patient there are some old deer..if you are lucky there are some big old deer (by CA standards).

Where ever Quality feed + Genetics + Age, Join Forces = Antler Growth.

Santa Rosa Island to Eastern Manitoba. Without discrimination.

Find you a big one 53. ?
 
I had the tag 2 years ago and did 3 scouting trips.... I returned my tag to get my points back before the hunt started. Same opportunity in d3-5 or many other otc tags In my opinion .... if I lived there or had zero points maybe but I wouldn't wast ONE point on that unit.

That's the point my son and I got this tag with NO points
 
How did your hunt go ?
We saw about 50 deer a day quite a few small 2x2 and 3x3 lots of does with two fawns. A ton of feed everywhere, looks like the area could support way more deer than my son and I saw.
We hunted all the way up to 12,000 feet but still does, fawns, and small bucks. The deer look healthy just young ones no older age group.
We did not fill our tags as we didn't see anything that was close to mature..
Fun hunt as the fishing in the area is worth the trip.. streams and lakes all over the place. Great place to camp but get your pocketbooks out Diesel was $7.75 a gal in Mammoth
