My boy was fortunate to take a gobbler on opening day in 6a. I was at the 6a camp and as of yesterday I believe 6 birds were brought in. Shout out to all the people who were involved with the camp..it was a great time with great food.

It really does depend on the unit your hunting. Last year I had a tag and I logged in over 30 days in the field scouting. I had found my target bull 3 days before the opener and I sat on him dark to dark watching his every move. On opening day the stalk didn't work out and we continued watching him till dark. On day 2 I moved in on him and busted him. My buddies were able to keep glass on him and I stayed up on the mountain the whole day under a tree 200 yds away from him while he was bedded. It was the longest day in the field I can remember. I stayed there until he got up for the evening and I was able to move in on him and get him down. Typically I would chase bugles in the morning running and gunning to get in front of them and sit water in the evenings. The best advice I can give you is know your equipment and practice, practice practice.

I'm looking for 7mag brass. Needs to be Remington.

I've killed multiple bulls over the years in 5bs. IMO one of those units that holds a ton elk in just about every part of the unit. Expect alot of 250"-300" type bulls and a few that will go 340"+. Long lake, soldier annex etc are all great areas to scout.

It's a loophole alot of guys are using to draw back to back tags. From what I've heard you can turn your tag back in a day before the hunt opens. I'm sure guys wait till the end so it's less tags in the field.

I already know of a few guys using it. One guy put in early rifle bull then archery and got his 2nd choice so he is turning it back in.

Guys it's simply achieved by putting down the same unit choice for your first 4 choices then a different unit on your 5th choice. The computer will recognize your 5th choice as your 2nd. I thought everyone knew that trick. Did I mention I drew my 3rd bull tag in a row?

I've drawn the last two years straight and possibly again this year for archery early bull. (Waiting to see if it's my bull tag or son's) If it's mine it will be 3 years in a row and if it's his it will be 2 years in a row. It's really all luck until u get to max points.

I put in for deer, elk and goat...hopefully I get a tag. I went all premier units.

I run a 350 spine bloodsport ONYX arrow which is 10.2 grains per inch. I run blazer vanes with a 125 grain gravedigger cut on contact with ROC outsert. Total arrow weight is right at 500grains with 16-17% FOC.

Looks we got a couple cc hits for bull tags in our family!

4b is the new unit 9...don't tell anyone..wait...the cat is out of the bag now.

I'd like to thank all you guys for putting in for 4b..that means less did the unit I put in for.

I heard there were (6) bucks killed in A over 200". B is still going on but I know a 230"+ and a 220" and multiple 200" have been killed.

IMO there shouldn't be a jr hunt in that unit at all especially after a general hunt. Having sad that a big buck can show up at any time. May be the toughest hunt in the state now but at one time was one of the most sought after desert tag. Areas I would concentrate on are vulture mtns, black mtn, EFFUS ranch and the area off gates rd. Best of luck.

Good luck! I've had that tag before. It's the most mentally tough hunt I've been on. I think it mentally messes with you because it is so far from everything and phone service is hit n miss at best. Good luck!

Best non coues!
