Well, I waited thru 9 rejections and finally got my archery tag for my home state in Arizona. Some how I got a unit I was very familar with but not one thought of as a premium unit, Unit 4B. Don't know what I was thinking when I put in for this unit but I was excited,none the less. Well a lot...
We found this tree during a cow hunt this week. I know Arizona is known for big
bulls but can you just imagine the bull that did this. This is why I keep going
elk hunting every year.

Hi Mike .
My self and my girl have shot several elk and deer with muzzleloaders and have always had good results. The thing with muzzleloaders is that they don't all shoot the same. I actually had to reduce the grains to 100 for ours to consistently shoot well. Its kind of like a bow , its not...
Well, I was able to get picked in New Mexico this year and looked forward to a great hunt. It turned out to be one of the hardest and longest hunts I have ever had to do. I researched results from this unit and they were very good. I spoke with a few other hunters who had done the same so I...
Idaho elk
I haven't hunted that area , but last year we were in the sawtooth region and heard exactly the same thing, even from the rangers. I got some elk to call but never saw but one run across a road after dark in 9 days. Didn't meet one hunter who had any more luck than I did. Saw lots...
thanks for the input
Thank you very much for your help, I hadn't looked too much at that side of the unit. I will use it as a back up plan. With you being a native NM , have you used anyone for a game processor that is in the vacinity of that unit. Taking it all the way back to AZ isn't my...
Thank you very much, I hadn't looked at that area too much. I am looking for back up plans to my first one, as I am sure you can relate. Can you tell me what vegetation is it, is it flat country? Looks that way for the most part. Coming in on 125 from Cebolla side how far would you say I...
I was able to get an archery elk tag in unit 51 , new mexico this year. Wondered if anyone is familiar with the area and could start me in the right area. It sept 1 to 15, I am hopeful that some calling will be happening. I planned on hunting the top section of the unit.
Thanks Azfisherman
I agree , thanks for giving us a way to get together and give our experiences and get advice. Hard to do if your work all the time and are limited in resources.

I just want to get some feedback on Idaho. I am from Az and went on my first out of state hunt in the sawtooth region this year. It was a real disappointment for me. I saw 2 elk , heard a few , got some to call and come in to about 100yrds but never saw them. They weren't calling at all. I was...
