Thanks redman, I appreciate the advice. This is pretty much what I thought. There are no absolutes, but I feel the further away from everyone the better. -
Amanda, This is great to hear! I have been hunting since last thursday and just saw this. I will be going through Globe tomorrow to continue my hunt, is there any way that I can purchase the Jim White pan head and pick it up on my way through? It may be a long shot but I thought I would ask! And thanks for the Anniversary Sale!

I've been in 24a and haven't seen much activity, about 20 doe, a forky, and a button buck....hopefully this week gets better...or maybe I need to try a new spot...but I feel like its tough to move seeing all the doe...I would think there would be some bucks around the doe -
Good luck to you guys! Been in 24a and have seen 20 doe, 1 forky, and a button buck.....hopefully the rest of the week gets better.....

great to hear Amanda, I could really use a Jim White pan head and just need a little something to push me over the edge!

Maybe cyber Monday would be more fitting for the CW Store, since it is online? Maybe free shipping, free xyz with purchase, or 10% off etc.....just an idea but i know that at the end of the day it is still a business, and a small local business....which I would love to support!!!!

Thanks for the replies, you all have great points that I agree with. It is good to hear what you have said because it confirms how I felt about the hunt. Being new to this and not seeing muleys and seeing coues you kinda start to doubt your methods but it sounds like we just need to keep doing what we were doing.

Just got back from my Brother-In-Law's muley hunt in 23 and we didn't have much luck. We hunted there for 3 full days and didn't see but 2 muleys. I glassed a coues buck opening morning at 437 yards that i think was with another buck but we could only see its rear end because it was bedded in the bush. This was at an area between black mesa and aztec peek. The next day on black mesa we walked up on 2 muley bucks that were bedded down right at sundown but they took off and we couldn't get back on them, especially without any sun. We were primarily hunting on top of black mesa and around coon creek and we had no problem seeing coues. My buddy glassed a couse buck and doe on top of black mesa at 351yards. We saw plenty of sign of deer on top of black mesa, a buck and doe skull and backbones that some coyotes got (looked like coues), one shed from a coues, and plenty of bedding spots. We were only familiar with that part of the unit and so we hunted there all three days, especially because of all the signs of deer. My question is, are there many muleys down low this time of year or are they in the higher elevation? We stayed low and glassed in the rollers but only saw coues. What have others seen and what do you recommend to get on some muleys? I hope some others that were out there had better luck, but from looking at their camps and driving past them it didn't look like it....I believe we had a tough 3 days seeing much of anything was because of the moon being almost full every single night we were there! Do you think the moon has a large part of bedded bucks during the day? Regardless it was great to get out there!!!
