  1. What are you interested in hunting?

    Are you looking to hunt in any particular part of the state??

     

    Let us know and you will likely get lots of info

     

    I'm pretty flexible. I used to hunt down south near Douglas until they shutdown acess through the Snure Ranch. I also tried the Chiricahua mts south of Wilcox, but never found an area I liked. I've also looked over some of the area in The Tonto south of Payson. I'm used to hunting from treestands in Wisonsin, so don't know how to hunt these Coues deer. I've successfully stalked other critters with my bow for the last 50 years. I'd like to find an area 2 to 3 hours from Mesa where I can leave the motorhome and hunt from my truck or trail bike. I can then drive the truck into Mesa when I need to.

  2. This has been an anticpated access issue for years since there is no right of way from the end of the county road to the forest boundary. The peloncillos is an access issue nightmare. There are not many places to get in with a motor home in the Peloncillos except geronmo trail. You might want to consider another location such as the Chiracauhuas and Pedegrosas.

     

     

    I took an 18 ft toyota motorhome through the Pinery Canyon from Portal to the Chiricahua Natl Monument once and as I remember it, it was pretty skinny at times. Think I can get my 40 ft Rambler through there? Anywhere else in the Chiricahuas I can get in to? Where are the Pedegrosas?


  3. I'm new to the forum, but not to bowhunting (46 years). I hunted skeleton canyon for several years before they put the gate across the road. I'm trying to get access from Snure Ranch, but haven't been able to get the telephone number yet. I heard it might have been bought by a Derrick Garland, but no confirmation yet. I am retired now, so can finally hunt the whole month of Janurary. If I can't get access to Skeleton Canyon, I'm looking for a new spot to hunt. I have a motorhome, pickup and trailbike to get me to where I can hunt. I also have a cabin and boat on the Kenai River in Alaska and will trade out some King fishing time for some good info on where to hunt coues or mulies. I'm hunting alone, so would also welcome company. I can still get up the hills pretty good, but it is always nice to have someone know where you are.
