[elkassassin]

[Blackie6]

You have points for these units? Or just doing a poll for fun?

 

[hogg_65]

You hiring a guide? Or hunting for yourself?

No disrespect to guides.

Too many people out there, that don't know how to hunt.

Judist Priest.....

A question like this is from someone that has NO idea what they are doing.....

This is our problem.

People think Trophy scores is normal.

I do have the points. Just wanted to see if others have the same opinion as I do. So a little of both.

I will hunt with family and friends. That is more important than score. Just curious if my thoughts are inline with others.

 

[elkassassin]

So?

Which unit Do You Know The Best?

[elkassassin]

Do You Know Any Of The Units?

 

[257Tony]

What season???

 

[ridgetops]

These kind of poles are useless. Alot of people won't answer truthfully or they just go along with what they've heard from others. I believe the unit your closest to and can spend the most time on will get the best results.

 

[yotebuster17]

Is the OP THE Muley Freak?!? Or just a knock off? If so private general areas can turn out some great bucks in most states without having to burn points.

Are you planning on bringing 17 of your family and friends along with you to help you spot the animals like every other Tom, D!ck and Harry from Utah?

Careful, you might get your wrist slapped with that kind of strategy lol

 

[MUZZLELOADER_MULEY_FREAK]

What season???

It depends on what unit i go with. It will be archery or muzzleloader.

Eazy there haha! I am the original he is the Knock off. I have had that user name for over 30 years but not on this site.

 

[elkassassin]

Hey MMF?

Have You Spent Any Time In Any Of The Units You Listed?

 

[yotebuster17]

Eazy there haha! I am the original he is the Knock off. I have had that user name for over 30 years but not on this site.

Haha. That’s awesome. Reminds me of office space. “Your name is Micheal Bolton”?

I’ve hunted the muzzy hunt on the oak creek. It was awesome. I don’t know sheet about the other units but I can promise you’d have some 180+ bucks to chase in there if you spent some time in there. Be in shape. It’s steep.

 

[MUZZLELOADER_MULEY_FREAK]

Hey MMF?

Have You Spent Any Time In Any Of The Units You Listed?

Yes, I have hunted 3 of the units. Seen great bucks in all of them.

 

[257Tony]

It depends on what unit i go with. It will be archery or muzzleloader.

In that case, I'd do Pauns if it was my points.

 

[ElmerFudd]

Do we factor in probability of drawing a tag? If so, chances are really bad in all of those units.

 

[elkassassin]

There's A Brother to the 45"ER They Took Off SJ Last Fall!

Problem Is They're Probably Already Camped On Him!

 

[Zim]

I did not vote, but been checking in on the results just for curiosity. I applied for the NR Paunsagunt archery tag with 27 points. If I draw, will likely be hunting solo. I'm hoping this is a good choice for the points.

Dang…with 27 you should draw…... I would personally go San Juan with a bow. Especially if you’re hunting solo.

 

[BrowningRage]

The hard part about all these units is having to compete with a crap ton of Outfitters, any season...

This is always one of my biggest concerns. My second elk hunt was in Book Cliffs back in 96. After chasing my bull across a couple canyons, I was able to make a close final approach & harvest. When I returned to my vehicle there was an entourage of six guys, the hunter wearing some kind of safari hat. They interrogated me about my bull, two mentioning they were glassing me for my entire stalk from two miles across the canyon. I’m afraid I shot “their” bull. Since then it’s been hit or miss with such folks in other states. Did get interfered with once when we walked up on a bait pile on the AZ Kaibab rifle deer hunt. Guides everywhere on that one. But none during my archery hunts there.

I hope when they said you shot their bull that you told them to “kindly F.O.”; Most guides are P.O.S.; Hogg 65 said no disrespect to guides, I say disrespect them until they prove worthy of respect and there aren’t a lot who do.. A majority of them disrespect not only other hunters but their clients as well.

When the clients aren’t around you hear a lot of them being badmouthed by the guide. Many of them talk as if it were themselves who killed the animal and leave the client out of the conversation altogether (I killed this bull, I killed that buck, blah blah blah) In some cases the client did only pull the trigger but not all of them. Either way If you accept to take on a client who is paying your bills you should keep your mouth shut and show them some respect even when they aren’t around. Talking bad about your client only makes you look bad.

These days just about every person in a posse calls themselves a guide. Personally I’d rather eat tag soup than hire a glorified babysitter.
Either do away with them, have a maximum amount of guide licenses just like liquor licenses in Utah or make the license fees prohibitive to your average 19 year old master guides.

Okay let’s hear all the butthurt. I haven’t been here much lately so I miss hearing grown men whine.

You Can't Compete with Them!

[Muley_73]

If you are willing to put in the time all of those units will produce 180" bucks. As will a couple other units.

So are you asking which unit will the be easiest to find a 180" buck?

You will be able to compete with the Outfitters and guides...the question is do you want to and are you willing to?
