I took this buck last week down on the Paunsaugunt in southern Utah. I spotted him feeding in a clear cut and was able to sneak within 35 yards for a perfect double lung shot. He made it about 60 yards after the hit. He is 28" wide with good mass. His forks are pretty weak, but he is my best...

I drew an Archery deer tag for the Paunsaugunt unit here in Utah and the season opens tomorrow. I am outta here in a couple hours and can't wait!! I hope to stick a nice one and have some pictures for all of ya.
Good luck to the rest of you bowhunting in Utah tomorrow and anyone else whose...
MagDog,
I have never hunted unit 50 before, but I hunted unit 76 two years ago. 76 is probably the most popular bowhunting elk unit in Idaho and it gets a lot of pressure/atv's. A lot of non-residents hunt this unit. Although the unit gets a lot of pressure, there are a lot of elk and some...
ElkHntinMD,
I have had success with calling elk early in Utah's archery season, but I mainly limit my calling to cow calls early. I will call to locate and then move in as close as possible and resume some light cow calls.
I hunt in an area that is very similar to the Strawberry area in that...
ElkHntinMD,
There are A LOT of elk in the areas around Strawberry Reservoir and you will have some good opportunities if you find the more rugged areas with good feed and water.
The Strawberry area has a lot of road access and is a popular area in the state for hunters, but there are plenty...
ElkHntinMD,
The Utah AR-301 tag allows you to hunt in the following units:
1-All Utah general any bull elk units
2-These Spike elk units (spike elk restrictions do not apply to AR-301 tag holders-you can take any bull): North Cache; LaSal Mtns; Plateau Boulder; San Rafael South; Wasatch Mtns...
I am from Utah and put in for the AR-301 hunt this year, but did not draw.
What unit are you planning on hunting?
I have had several buddies draw in years past and most hunted the Mt. Dutton unit, but I am familiar with several of the other units and may be able to give you some additional...
Just found out I drew a Paunsaugunt Archery Deer Tag for here in Utah. Just wondering if any of you have hunted the unit recently?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
You can email me at [email protected] if you would prefer.
Thanks,
Cory
This guy killed the bull with the $5 sportsman's raffle tag and the bull will be the new Utah State record. It is the first bull in Utah to net over 400 points!!
The bull was killed quite close to where I live here in Utah and has caused quite a stir. I saw a bull this fall in the same unit...
Yep-he is definitely going on the wall. His cape was beautiful and perfect, and it is my first antelope, so I didn't really have a choice.
Now it is just talking my wife into putting him in the living room :D
Moosie-you are real close on the unit #, but not quite right ;)
I hope I didn't sound like an A-hole, it just isn't my area to be telling people about, and I have to respect my boss or I may be without a job real soon :D
Take care and shoot straight!!
