Being from out of state my scouting opportunities are limited, although I did make it out to the unit back in late March as a "shed hunt" but it was mostly me just driving around the unit getting an understanding of the terrain and road access. My first time hunting AZ, so I am excited for the...
Yup, I'll be out around the same, hoping to have a great experience trying get on some elk and hopefully fire an arrow at one! Man, 8x9 would be tough to stay steady on, hope you and you have a good hunt and have great success this year!
Great to hear! I was out for a scouting venture late march/april to get a feel for the terrain and access, looks like a solid unit overall, lots of places for elk to go and hide, will be a challenge!
I’ll have to look that recipe up, would rather doctor up my own mix vs the packets with added flavoring, just went easy route with the boxes of packets. Thanks for the insight!
Appreciate the heads up! Given timing, the main scouting will be just before the hunting opener and then roll right into the hunt from there. Maybe a pre scout 2-3weeks prior if I'm able to swing it. Other than that, anything else would be more just to get the lay of the land so to speak. I...
I appreciate the input! Sounds like an elk hunt, ton of challenges with weather and terrain, still hope you enjoyed it even though the tag didn't get punched.
I'm newer on here, so have a couple more posts to make before I can PM, but once I cross that threshold I'll reach out, appreciate it!
Interested in if you were successful with filling this tag. Just drew late archery for unit 23. I plan on making a scouting trip or two to get boots on the ground beforehand. From what I can gather this is a tough hunt that will test anyone during the late season due to terrain, post rut...
Recommend getting boots on the ground in WY if you can. So, the previously mentioned leftover cow tag is solid option! But if you're a rookie, any experience in any state will still help get your baseline up ability along with being in good physical shape.
Our group drew WY two years ago...
Counting myself pretty lucky since card got hit Wednesday morning! Now waiting to see which choice hit, non-resident that had 2 bonus points for AZ and took a swing at some great hunts vs the ultra-premier lifetime hunts. Figured was better off going for 5% odds vs the 0.1% chance odds...
