Apatkelley Report post Posted August 7, 2009 Good luck, access to public land is a real problem in the area. There is some great country if you can get permission from landowners. G&F isn't kidding when they warn you about access in this unit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mrs125coues Report post Posted August 7, 2009 that is what Im worried about, and I dont know the first thing on were to start in finding out who I can talk to about permission to some of this land! When my husband and I came across a situation like that, we spoke to the unit game manager to get landowner names and ranch names, then I went home and got on the internet too look them up. It really helps out if you can go do some scouting and when you talk to the landowners and let them know that you have looked around, it seemed to make an impression on the landowners that we were out looking and not just trying to get access to their property.

Snapshot Report post Posted August 7, 2009 I will send you a little info via P.M. I have taken 4 mulies down there over the years, but it is not what it used to be. Most of the best hunting is on or around private land, and occasionally a nice buck or two. There are spots on public land, just as long as your expectations are not set to high.

azhuntergirl Report post Posted August 12, 2009 Grew up about 5 miles from the dragoons and did a lot of riding/hunting/hiking in the unit. Great dear area, access really isn't too bad. Most of the ranchers in the area are pretty friendly. There is a decent bit of forest service. Some good areas by courtland/gleason. Let me know if you want some ideas/specifics. I'll help out all I can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coues Archer Report post Posted August 13, 2009 snapshot is right most good places are in or around private land so do some good scouting and you should be good if your not hunting for a trophy you are pretty much guaranteed to get a buck in that unit it is very easy. Anyways good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
