I was able to secure a non-res muzzle loader antlered mule deer permit for unit 11, 12, 13, 22, 23, 24, 131, 211, 231. Not too spectacular but I get to hunt this year.
Thank you for the help. I didn’t intend on creating drama on this site. I was just asking for other hunters experiences and I do appreciate what you have seen.
I have drawn the buck antelope permit for unit 161. Does anyone have any information on the antelope herd north and west of Walden, Co? The last time I hunted this unit was 2007 and I killed a decent buck.
I have drawn a population management cow elk archery permit for the Round Valley hunt in unit 1-2. Does anyone have info on the whereabouts of the elk if they are not on the private ranches I will have access to?
I apparently was successful after 22 points and drew the 13B rifle pronghorn tag this year. Has anyone hunted this area recently who could give me some advice on where to start and expectations on bucks?
Since I didn't draw a tag this year I was thinking about a first time Deer hunt in Nebraska. Can anybody give me insight into the north west portion of the state for a December muzzle loader hunt?
You will need the Apache Sitgreaves national forest map. My son had this tag about 8 years ago, when he was ten. We saw plenty of deer in the southern portion of the unit. We hunted one day and he had his buck, a small whitetail forked horn, on the afternoon of the first day. We hunted east...
I am a non resident and have 8 points for deer. I was thinking of putting in for a 4th season hunt in unit 5 in 2017. Has anybody had this tag during the fourth season? Are there any decent bucks on public land during this season or have they all been pushed onto private? Does anybody have...
My dad and I have drawn the muzzle loader deer tags in the Panguitch area this year. Can anybody give me input on how the heard is doing this year? Any particular areas I should stay away from or any areas that are holding deer this year? Any help would be great. Thanks
I have used the 250 grain Barnes EZ on 2 Deer, 1 Antelope and two elk. The bullet has killed each of these animals in thier tracks. I would recommend this bullet for bull elk as long as you are shooting within 100 yards and are hitting him in the proper place. Good luck.
Well, I never got to shoot at an elk last season so I wont know whether a fixed or expandable would have made a difference. Unit 9 is a tough hunt during the late season. I have shot three deer with the rage and am very pleased with the performance. Ill be looking forward to 2016.
I have a late archery Bull Elk tag in AZ (unit 9) coming up the second week of Novemeber. I have used the Rage mechanicals for deer and am very satisfied with the performance. Does anybody have experience using the Rage Hypodermic broadhead for elk? I have the G5 Montecs that I have been...
Hey guys, I was hunting Elk in unit 9 with my son last week and we found a python lock, used to secure a game camera to a tree. Message me with a description of the lock, what the key says on it and/or where you left it and I will mail it back to you.
I had this tag in 2007, before the fence and shot a nice buck with extra kickers. He was showing some rut when I shot him. since then I hunted the early rifle in 2013 and the fence kept most of the deer on the Utah side. We didnt harvest a buck that year. Not sure I would apply for 12B again...
My 18 year old son and 16 year old son both drew this tag. My 18 year old may enlist in the Navy when he graduates from HS next month and may not be able to hunt with the tag. Does anybody know how to go about donating the tag to a make a wish type foundation? Also, I will definately be there...
I hunted the 12BW early hunt in 2013. During that hunt all of the deer were piled up along the Utah side of the fence. My dad had the tag and did not fill it because there were very few deer which had figured out how to cross under the highway to get to the AZ side. I dont know if they are...
My dad had the 12BW early hunt and the Paunsugunt rifle hunt last year. He was able to harvest a decent buck on the Utah side but we never found a decent buck on the AZ side a week later. All of the deer were bottled up on the Utah side and never seemed to make it south. Good luck on this...
Does anybody have any input on when would be the best time of the season to hunt cow elk during the Monroe/Mt Dutton/Plateau hunt? The tag is good from 11-17-14 through 1-31-15. Any help would be appreciated.
I spent July 22 through 27, 2013 in that area and saw very few deer. The deer that I did see were does and fawns. I probably wouldnt put in for that general area tag. Go shoot a bear.
I drew the region W general deer tag this year and plan on hunting area 100. Has anybody had a chance to check on the area this year? How was the winter kill? Is the drought still hurting the herd? Any info on this area would be apreciated. Thanks.
My dad and I drew rifle antelope tags in unit 107 this year. Is the drought still hurting the herd this year? How does the winter kill look like this year? Any information on this area would be apreciated. Thanks
My boys drew the unit 7 Jr hunt for deer this year. I plan on doing a lot of scouting before Oct but is there a a good place to start? I know there are alot of elk in the area but is there an area in 7 better for deer?
I have killed Javelina with 22-250, 220 swift and .243 in Arizona. All work very good for Javelina. I would also like to kill one with my bow. If you are able to get close enough, using a call will get them to come running towards you.
Does anybody have any opinion on the deer hunting in unit 13? I dont have access to private property and was wondering if anybody has had luck on the State Trust Land parcels south of craig? Are the STL parcels big enough to hunt? Are there alot of other hunters? Will the deer stay on the...
I had the early rifle deer hunt in 2011 in New Mexico's unit 2B. I was there for the entire week before opening day and saw most of the deer near water and on the graded, grassy areas near the gas wells. Unfortunately, two days before opening day, I rode a mountain bicycle three miles down a...
I have never hunted the muzzle loader hunt in 2B but had the early rifle deer hunt in 2011. I scouted the Laguna Seca Mesa area south of Hwy 64 and saw lots of does and small bucks. The weather during the third weekend in October was mild to warm. I was there for the entire week before opening...
Im headed up to Panguitch Lake on Monday for the Wednesday Muzzle Loader deer opener. Can anybody tell me how the deer herd looks this year? Good luck to everybody this year.
I am in a pickle this year. I drew the Unit 15 Muzzle Loader Bull hunt on Oct 20-24. I also drew the Unit 2B early rifle deer hunt, Oct 20-24. Does anybody know of a butcher I can take a bull to near Quemado or anywhere between there and Farmington NM. If I get a bull soon enough Im going to...
