Thanks! That rule doesn't apply to every unit but it does in that particular one.... The first 4 days of the season are completely non motorized and that rule kicks in on the 5th.

I made the move to Alaska in the summer of 2022 so this is my first hunting season as a bona fide Alaskan resident. My hunting partner and I were hunting in an area we had never been in before so there was a learning curve but we figured things out pretty fast. We were hunting out of a canoe and...

MM member, hoopscoach, took his first as an Alaskan resident. What a score it is too! Read the story in the Alaskan Forum.

Message me if you draw. I have been on 3 off range hunts. All successful and all shots were inside of 200 yards. I recommend you apply for on-range as your first and second choice and off range as your 3rd. My favorite month for off range is December but any winter month should be fine. Summer...

Dreamcrusher209, I sent you a PM. Doug

I was fortunate to draw unit 7 for elk and have done a fair amount of research prior to applying. I plan to spend the whole month of September with bow in hand and use the rifle season as plan B. I've heard from several members about their experiences in unit 7 but would love to connect with...

I think you can do this hunt without an outfitter but I don't have any experience with the late hunt. I had no trouble finding elk during September... Here is the story from my archery hunt last year. https://www.monstermuleys.info/xf/threads/nevada-archery-elk-success.191351/

Feel free to PM me. I got this guy last year during the archery season.

Got this guy in 121 last year during the archery season...

Unit 7 type 1 for me! Decided it was time to cash in my points before they start cutting nonresident tags:) Let the scouting begin! Hoopscoach

I don't think you can go wrong with any of those units but don't forget about 61. It's a great unit for cows. Hunted it several times with youth hunters and never failed to fill a cow tag.

I, like a few others have suggested, would consider a pack out service or pay for a drop camp. Hoopscoach

If I had 14.5 points in WY, I would apply for 24 or 16 and would probably lean toward 16.

With that many years invested, I would recommend you come to CO during the season you are considering in 2022 and do a "dry run" in the unit you are thinking about. Talk to other guys who have the tag and offer to help them glass, pack out their elk etc. You will learn a lot from an experience...

Where do you live? Do you have the availability to come to CO and do some scouting the year before you draw?

Where do you live?

Do you have a short list of units you are considering yet?

Great video and great archery bull!

I hit the jackpot drawing some exceptional tags this year and one of those tags was off range oryx! The first morning, my girlfriend Cindy spotted an oryx, but it was on the range and off limits. Later that morning, we snubbed a young bull that was off the range but pretty small and not what we...

Arrowed this bull on September 3rd in Nevada. I was in the right place at the right time and shot him at 25 yards broadside.

MM regular, hoopscoach, took himself a beauty. He shared this photo in a fun archery bull thread in the Elk Forum.

That is an absolute stud bull and you earned it my friend! For those of you who don’t know, Marley scouted his butt off for this hunt and had the unit totally dialed in. Congrats again on a well earned trophy of a lifetime. Hoopscoach

It was day 10 of a 23 day archery season and the weather was very hot and dry. Bulls were bugling but not really chasing cows or rutting very hard. A few bulls had started gathering cows but it was still mostly pre rut. I found a good hiding spot up against a pine tree that was on a small ridge...

Shoot me a PM with your number and I will happily give you a call! Doug

Shoot me a pm with your number. I have hunted it 3 out of the last 5 years (1 rifle and 2 muzzy) for bear and have had some success. Hoopscoach

Well done!

I have this archery elk tag and wondered if anyone on MM has hunted this unit during the archery season? I have talked to several guys who had the rifle tag and they have generously shared info/experiences from their rifle hunts. I spent 5 days in the unit last week and will scout for about a...

Hey Pucci, I sent you a pm with my number. I would love to chat with you about your experiences on that archery hunt and see what you learned about the best strategies to hunt that unit. Thanks!

Thanks for the info everyone! hoopscoach

I drew a bull archery tag for 104.108 and 121 so I was just curious about how the drought might affect antler growth. Sounds like it's pretty dry in that area and I assumed it will affect browse and food sources. A few years ago I drew an AZ bull tag in a very dry year and most of the bulls I...

Do you guys expect to see significantly diminished antler growth in Nevada because to the drought conditions in 2021?

Unit 49 moose for me!!! only took 19 years:)

After 19 years of applying, I finally hit the jackpot and drew CO moose! Luckily, I know the unit really well since I hunted sheep there in 2017 and elk in 2020. Can't wait to get up there and start looking for bulls! Luckily, I retired a year ago and so now I have time to hunt the whole season...

Hmmm, I was thinking applicants received a random number for each weighted point they have and then they throw out all but the lowest number. It turns out they do some ninja kung fu manipulating to your application number and then divide it by the number of weighted points you have +1. The lower...
