NV area 10 archery

[p_ham]

Just curious if anybody has hunted area 10 for antelope? I drew an archery tag this year, and haven't been in that part of the state since I was a kid. I have a deer/cow elk rifle tag for the same area.

I had a rifle tag for that area in 2014 and there are quite a few antelope there. We saw a few herds in Long Valley as we drove through and the few water sources we checked had tracks around them.
There are a lot on the refuge that are off limits but some of them do wander outside the boundary fence. Lots of them also hang out in the alfalfa fields as well but many of them are posted. There are some fields on the north end of the valley that are not posted that may be huntable by ambushing them where they go in and out of the fields. If you see a rancher in a pivot field you could ask if they will allow you to hunt there since you are using archery gear.
Be prepared for some very warm weather as well.
Good luck to you.
