    ****NOT MY HERO****

    i guess the information below is private right. somebody better call game and fish and let them know someone leaked the info out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME BUCK.....STOP CRYING AND BACKSTABBING!!!!! GLAD I AM NOT A TROPHY HUNTER THE MENTALITY REALLY MAKES ME WANT TO PUKE!!!!! Game Management Unit 24A Updated August 2008 Additional Hunting Unit Report pages - Region I - Pinetop - Region IV - Yuma - Region II - Flagstaff - Region V - Tucson - Region III - Kingman - Region VI - Mesa Species within this unit:Javelina, Mule Deer, White-tailed Deer, Black Bear, Mountain Lion, Elk, Cottontail Rabbit, Tree Squirrel , Quail Unit Boundaries Beginning on AZ Hwy 177 in Superior; southeasterly on AZ Hwy 177 to the Gila River; northeasterly along the Gila River to the San Carlos Indian Reservation boundary; easterly, westerly and northerly along the reservation boundary to the Salt River; southwesterly along the Salt River to AZ Hwy 288; southerly on AZ Hwys 288 and 88 to U.S. Hwy 60; southwesterly on U.S. Hwy 60 to AZ Hwy 177. The major mountain ranges within 24A include the Dripping Springs Mountains and the Mescal Mountains in the southern portion of the unit, the Pinal Mountains south of Globe, the Apache Mountains north of Globe, and the Timber Camp Mountains northeast of Globe. The northern portion of the unit, from the Dripping Springs Road north, is a mix of private property and Tonto National Forest land. The southern portion of the unit is a mix of State Trust Land, BLM land, and private property. Species Information back to top Javelina Overview: Unit 24A boasts a healthy javelina population unit-wide. Each year, the Department offers an archery-only javelina hunt during the month of January, a primitive weapons hunt (handgun, archery, muzzleloader only) hunt in February, and a general hunt in February. Javelina populations have sustained themselves quite nicely in 24A and the unit provides an excellent opportunity for some successful javelina hunting. Areas: Huntable javelina can be found throughout the unit with the exception of the top of the Pinal Mountains south of Globe. The best way to hunt javelina is to find a high spot where you can see lots open desert hillsides in the mornings and evenings. Glass for javelina on south or west facing slopes and sunny bottomlands early in the morning when javelina are trying to warm themselves. Keep the wind in your face and move reasonably slow when you get within a couple of hundred yards, and you should have no problem getting within range for a shot. To access some of the better javelina hunting in 24A you can check out some of the following areas: Dripping Springs Wash: To access this area turn west/northwest on the dripping springs wash road off of Hwy 77 about 15 miles south of Globe. There are lots of open desert ridges in this area that lend themselves well to glassing. Horseshoe Bend: Take the Wheatfield’s exit east of Forest Road 219 to the east off of old Hwy 88 just past the HE Ranch. This access route cuts across private property so you must sign in and out. FR 219 junctions with FR 220, which travels to Richmond Basin and FR 223, that leads to Shute Springs. Both these areas have javelina and good open slopes for glassing. 7-Mile Wash: There are fewer javelina in 7-Mile Wash in relation to other areas in the unit but the area still provides a good hunting opportunity. To access this area go north of Globe on Hwy 60 to Forest Road 303. The low rolling hills on both sides of this road in 7-Mile, all the way to the Salt River can hold javelina. El Capitan: Forest Roads 1036, 527, and 2670 have great open slopes to Glass javelina. Explore both sides of Hwy 77, south of Globe. back to top Mule Deer Overview: Similar to mule deer population in most of Arizona, the Unit 24A mule deer population has been in decline since the mid 1990s. Mule deer are found scattered in the lower elevation areas of 24A, so be aware that white-tailed deer also occur with mule deer in this unit, so be sure of your target before you shoot. Areas: A popular place to find mule deer is in the 7-Mile Wash Road area (Forest Road 303) at the north end of the Apache Mountains. Glass the lower elevation rolling hills for mule deer. Mule deer can also be found in the Dripping Springs wash area. To access this area one can turn west/northwest off State Route 77 about 15 miles south of Globe onto the Dripping Springs Road. Find a good high point and use your binoculars and you might just find a wily old mule deer buck lurking in this area. Another good area for mule deer is off the Horseshoe Bend Road (FR 219) on the west side of the Apache Mountains. Take the Old Hwy 88 from Hwy 188 north of Globe across Pinal Creek and past the HE Ranch to the 219 Road. FR 219 junctions with FR 220 that travels to Richmond Basin and FR 223 that leads to Shute Springs, both areas with mule deer and good open slopes for glassing. Access to these areas is provided across private property so you must sign in and out as you cross private property. Other mule deer areas are the various Forest Roads that run east from US Hwy 60 north of Globe but be aware of the nearby San Carlos Indian Reservation Boundary as hunting on tribal land is not permitted with a Arizona Game and Fish permit. For a hunter that wants a big buck and is horseback or willing to do some strenuous hiking, the hills above the Salt River in the north part of the unit are accessed from FR 303 (7-Mile), the Horseshoe Bend Rd (FR 219), and FR 473 (Regal Canyon). NOTE: F.R. 360 near Timber Camp Campground is CLOSED. back to top White-tailed Deer Over view: Within the past couple of years, whitetail deer have been increasing as a whole in the state and the unit has its opportunities for harvest. Several bucks scoring over 90 inches have been killed in 24A over the last several years. Areas: The best whitetail hunting in 24A, but with high hunter concentrations is found in the Pinal Mountains. There are significantly more bucks in the area and high scoring deer were seen during this year's deer surveys. The area is rugged and steep and the whitetails are seen primarily in the drainages below the mountain summit. A lot of glassing along with some patience will reveal the deer. To access the Pinal Mountains, use FR 651 to Sulphide Del Ray and Pinal Peak or FR 112 to Pioneer Pass. Whitetails are found on all slopes of the Pinals but glassing is difficult on the north side due to thick conifer and chaparral. However, many a hunter has been successful by tracking and stalking white-tail on the north side of the Pinal Mountains. The high mountain elevation areas of the Dripping Springs Mountains located south of Dripping Springs road and the south slopes of the Pinal Mountains north of the Dripping Springs road hold good populations of whitetail deer and provide excellent hunting opportunities. There are many roads that run north and south along the ridges that accessing these areas. Forest Roads 248 and 899 are two-trackers leading to the north of Dripping Springs road, and both of those will take you to good deer areas. Any of these roads are likely to lead you to whitetail deer. It is possible to drive from Dripping Springs road thru Pioneer Basin all the way to Pinal Peak, although the road has been washed out and an OHV would be needed. Be aware that mule deer also occur in these areas; so be sure of your target before you shoot. North of Globe, whitetails mostly occur north of Timber Camp Mountain. Forest Roads 2334, 360 and 304 access this high elevation grassland and chaparral habitat where whitetail deer have been increasing in numbers. Another area is off the Horseshoe Bend Road (FR 219) on the west side of the Apache Mountains. Take the Old Hwy 88 from Hwy 188 north of Globe across Pinal Creek and past the HE Ranch to the 219 Road. FR 219 junctions with FR 220, which travels to Richmond Basin and FR 223, that leads to Shute Springs. Both these areas have whitetail and good open slopes for glassing. Travel by foot or horseback to access the upper slopes of the Apache Mountains for a better chance at a larger whitetail buck. Access to these areas is provided across private property so you must sign in and out as you cross private property. NOTE: F.R. 360 near Timber Camp Campground is
