This is my first time posting here, looking to gain a little knowledge. I'm an avid bow hunter, and have hunted whitetail in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas.
I'm looking at doing an over the counter hunt in Arizona. I've been gathering information for the last month or so as well as aquiring gear for the hunt. Looking for some info on Unit 27, most of what I've been able to find is a few years old. I'm not afraid to put some miles on my boots.
I'm looking at starting at some canyons off Juan Miller Rd past Blue River. How is the hunting in this area? Any other general areas to check out? (Not looking for anyone's spot, just trying to do as much research and have a solid game plan before my wife and I head to Arizona from Texas in January)
Or any other units I should check out for OTC mule deer in January? Unit 27 is nice because it's on the eastern edge of Arizona and a straight shot across from home. But again, I'm not afraid to drive further or hike in further if it means a better shot at tagging out
