That top one is going to be a good buck next season! hopefully he sticks around for you

Mr. Quimby: Well sir, I believe you misunderstood my statement. When I stated "a lot of 2-3 year bucks", what I should clarify is that of the bucks actually seen and scouted, most branch antlered bucks were only 2-3 year old deer at best. This carries over to the actual hunts, as well, since very few mature deer taken during the rifle hunt as compared to historical data captured by G&F from the 80's through the late 90's. The overall deer numbers are also at an all-time low. That, sir, is a huge problem when you're managing and advertising an area as a "trophy unit". If you are managing a trophy unit, that unit should support a fair representation of older age class deer as well as younger deer. From my days as a game warden I can share this with you as well. A herd that consists of mostly 2-3 year old deer is not always a good indication of a healthy herd in terms of game management. You must have older-age class animals as well. It can be, unfortunately, a sign of over-harvest and/or an area where severe winter-kill takes most older-age class deer. The later is not the issue on the Kaibab, in my opinion, which leaves you only one choice. Those of us on this board that have some historical knowledge of the Bab' understand its potential and ability to produce record class animals. Unfortunately, I believe the revenue and publicity generated from the junior doe hunts and over-amount of tags issued is directly related to the lowest population ever recorded on the plateau and the rarity of B&C class animals. Sorry to have to side-track the original posters thread, but I needed to answer Mr. Quimby. I agree

Shot mine out of a treestand. done a few spot and stalk but haven't sealed the deal that way
-
You must not have gotten drawn then cuz I got mine 2 weeks ago
-
Startin to think this whole "bonus point" is crap. its just about gettin lucky and game and fish collects 7 bucks from everyone
-
Yeah that's crazy. 3b was my first and 2nd choice and I didn't get drawn. same with some others. Big bulls in every unit you just gotta be willing to pass on the average ones. had that tag last year
