Your chances of drawing a Super Raffle tag are probably about 10x better than a NR rifle antelope tag with 1 point!! Unreal! Good luck with the hunt. My best advice for antelope regardless of what state is to get a good phone scope and take pics. Like thousands of them. You’ll get a certain look at a buck that’ll make you shoot him and you’ll be wrong. If you’ve got pics of everything you see you can go back and look at all the angles and all the sudden one will make you realize it’s way bigger than the rest. The second thing would be do your entire hunt before the hunt. Meaning if you’ve got 10 days to do the hunt (yes take that many, this is a once in 10 lifetimes tag, harder to get then a sheep tag) then spend 9 of the 10 scouting and have the last one be opening day. That does two things 1: keeps you off the trigger till you’ve seen most of the bucks in the unit 2: gets you the biggest buck asap in the morning of opener before someone else does. Disclaimer: 6a will have some bucks in the trees those are trickier. If you’ve got tons of time go after em and ask every coues and elk hunter you know where to look for em It was actually an archery tag. So a little easier to draw, but still a longshot! The way work is going, I may only be able to get out to scout in late July but I will sure try to get there well ahead of the opener! I have been hearing that some of these bucks hang out in the trees. I am slightly worried about the archery deer hunters out there moving animals around but it's a big unit so hopefully it doesn't feel too crowded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Demerson71 Report post Posted March 12 I’ve hunted only up N in the pines, and seen very few. I tried going around them and they still cut in front of me, ended up kicking a cow to us for a youth I was helping out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

verdehunter Report post Posted March 19 As mentioned, antelope are in every part of the unit. I've seen some big ones in there over the years. The biggest have always been in the pines. There are general areas in the pines they hang out in, and it can take a couple days between sightings of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
