Also, I thought that the more southern units would have more coues deer than mule deer. I would prefer a mule deer, just because I find the antlers more interesting and we have whitetail down in Florida. I would take a coues though, im not extremely picky

How far do you have to go to see deer? I would hike pretty far but depending on the terrain, my mom could only do 2-5 miles.

Do you camp out there? I think we might to save time and money

Are there any problems with illegals? Ill most likely be carrying a pistol just in case

The farther south in the unit or in arizona?

Does 36c have a good quantity of bucks? Of course I want big bucks but I would rather get a decent on than none at all.

Sorry of I didnt make it clear, I want to hunt fall 2021/ January 2022. I graduate in june 2021. Right now im just gathering info so that I dont have to rush when it comes time to apply for tags

Im still trying to learn osceola turkey myself, went in spring an only saw a single hen. Ill look into Colorado but one of the reasons I chose Arizona is the mild winter so I wouldnt have to buy a lot of clothing. I would like to hunt Montana some day but right now it is too far of a drive.

Im entering my senior year of high school and for a graduation present, my mom and I have been discussing a western hunt in 2021. I live in south Florida so and have been hunting tiny deer in the swamp and have no experience in western states. I have put in a good bit of research and decided on Mule Deer in Arizona. I have been looking into hunting the desert as I think it would be easier on my mom (I would be more than willing to hike 10+ miles a day but she couldnt.) I dont care about getting a monster buck but would rather get a small one than nothing. I have been looking at unit 41 and some of the units around it are these any good? not looking for anyone's secret spot but a general area would be appreciated. I would prefer a rifle hunt as I have a 270 with a 3.5x10 scope, is that enough magnification? I would take an otc archery if I dont draw a rifle tag. Any necessary gear or tips would be greatly appreciated. And sorry for the giant wall of text- im stuck inside with quarantine and bad weather so I have had nothing to do but think of questions to ask
