More D Report post Posted June 23, 2003 I am new to bow hunting a s of Nov. 02 and I love it! I have spent some time in the 36's , but I was wondering if any body could recommend some good spots? I don't want your honey holes or anything like that, just point me in the right direction. Finding game is part of fun but a little help would be appreciated. Info throught the azgfd.com seams more for rifle hunting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More D Report post Posted June 24, 2003 I would really like to try coues, but I can even go for carp(like you guys call it) Does coues hunting with bow mean hunting over a water hole? Don't really matter to me a long as any body can recommmend some thing down here in southern AZ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prohunt Report post Posted June 24, 2003 I would reccomend the higher elevations, because it is cooler during the early archery hunt.Also because the higher elevations have some water in the tanks/creeks.I am talking about the higer elevations of units: 22,23,and 24 because I know these units.These units are so dry that where there is water there are deer.I would reccomend setting up near water but not right on water.If you can find a trail,fence, or a natural cross over going to water thats the place to be.Also you can spot and stalk Coues but it isn't easy, they won't usually stop and look back at you like a Carp does.Best of luck to you.
