Congratulations on your first buck! And so the addiction begins......

Unbelievable, congratulations to both of you! What a great experience to have with you daughter. My son just turned 5 and I cant wait to begin building memories such as this with him.

You can count on it! If I survive, I have already completed negotiations with my wife for my next backpack hunt in January. I will be entering the Babaquiveries south of Santa Margarita and getting picked up at our property just east of the Coyote Wilderness 25-30 miles away. I figure if a few guys with a couple of milk jugs of water can do it so can I. The guys with the milk jugs always talk about the big deer they see. PM sent.

Good luck on your hunt! I have seen a few nice coues in the Warsaw/Phoenix canyon areas lately. We are going to unit 1 the following week so we can combine our deer hunt with some turkey, fishing, and silently cursing those with unit 1 elk tags:)

Awsome idea for a thread! I love cabelas bargain cave, great deals especially in the off season. I also purchase a good amount of archery gear from the classified section of Archerytalk.com.

Thanks, appreciate it.

Holy smokes! Someday..........

My intentions for starting this thread were certainly not to reveal any secret hunts. I have heard guys talking about these WMAT hunts for many years, yet I had not talked to anyone who had actually done one. Hence my questions. Unfortunately in todays social media driven world, information is spread more quickly than we would like and everything quickly becomes public knowledge. Coupled with the ever increasing popularity in western hunting and tags become increasingly difficult to obtain. Heck, look at how fast the leftover deer tags went this year! I do miss the days as a younger man where hunting information was shared over a beer sitting on a tailgate. Anyway, thanks for the input and good luck on your hunts this year.

Coues79, el diablo, and str8shot, thanks for the input! Big browns, I believe the application deadline is august 22.
