19b is a sleeper for good genetics and age class. Have stumbled on a number of good deer while javi hunting.

Agreed.  I spend a lot of time in 19B.

22Oct Deer, No sheep after having my hopes up seeing a number. Individual Sheep bonus points were zeroed out earlier but have now since came back here recently. My portals on the struggle bus it seems.

Decades ago (82 or 83) the Arizona Hunter & Angler published a story about 19B.  They talked about how back in the 70's they transplanted mule deer off the Kaibab plateau and put them in 19B.  The guys who did aerial surveys said they would see some HUGE bucks in the flat juniper country that really wasn't glassable.  I imagine some of their genetics are still there.  I wish the publisher Tony Mandile was still around to tell us more about it.  Nice find.

Ok, Who got Strip tags? You hear there are not many deer left there. You gotta use a guide . They are in pockets. I here the same about the Kaibab that I drew as far as Big ones. Lottsa deer but not the size  like there used to be. I am retired now and will spend the whole 10 days if need on the early hunt to show there are still big Deer left there. Good Luck to all . 70 in September , 2 major surgeries last Winter, I got 4 Months  to get in shape. Been doing hard Labor the last Month , Gotta get on the Treadmill with Mama and be ready. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;BOB!

You dog. 

I figured I didn’t get a tag then got the hit. Had 4 points but I’m happy. First choices were the late hunts.

Saw over 100 Bulls , Killed a dink 300 on second to last day as I was getting tired . We hiked alot.. Passed up some very nice Bulls, I have some 330 type and missed a 355 type , saw a 380 + but would have been illegal from the 300 road as He was 40 yards going toward the Rez and I was on the road . I basically ate the tag . But I was good . Had a Great time.  Have Pictures of some 330's that most would shoot............................BOB!

36A late December with a rifle.

It's ok, I am well prepared to be judged by bowhunters.

I can never get this tag I’m jealous lol I’ve put that first choice for about 10 years

12b west early hunt. I sure am hoping for a early winter. Whats crazy is that last year it took 14 points to draw in the bonus pass and we had 11 this year and I drew tag # 16.

Congratulations, but last year there were 13 residents with 10 points  that put that hunt as their 1st and 2nd choice and 12 drew in the bonus pass.
