12 bonus points finally paid off. Drew Unit 8 archery bull. Planning and preparing to enjoy this practically once in a lifetime opportunity to the fullest.

spent a couple days in 8 over 4th of July. Did find one big bull in the making and one that was big on the left and stunted on the right along with a lot of other animals.

Heading for 5 day scout trip in a week. Aug.10-15

Ideas and suggestions always welcome. Have all the maps and personal observations plus suggestions and notes scratched all over them so starting to get a sense of where and how of this hunt. This next trip plus scouting another 4 days just prior to the opener should set me up fairly well, I hope. Anybody have specific suggestions about making the most of this mid-August scout trip, I can be contacted at the below address. I am guessing the bulls will be a bit more out and about than they were in July but we'll see soon enough.

From what I keep hearing I'll be the only DIY hunter who is hunting solo and not bringing along a whole posse of helpers and gawkers. Will be interesting to see if there is as big a crowd in every camp as I have heard. I have the whole season if needed. Can't wait.

If any previous unit 8 hunters might be willing to share some insights I'd sure appreciate it.

Look around a place called "Hell's Pocket". Nice secluded and out of the way. A beotch to hunt, but that's what makes it nice. You might also look around the south end of the unit around Volunteer Canyon. JackAss Flats is another 'maybe' area.
 
Dam people with 2 post getting on here and asking for info:)

Doesn't matter if someone tells him where a 375 bull is anyway................he will just miss!!!!!!!!!!!!!
