I appreciate the input but I’m going this year. I wasn’t asking if i should put in this year or not. I’m burning my points. I don’t want to wait 3-5 years if the state recovers. Being from Arizona and hunting antelope here the lowest density antelope hunts in Wyoming will be a vacation. All I’m looking for is some real time updates how the state looks like and where there’s a chance. No real skin on n the game as I have 21 points in AZ. I’ll kill a big one at home when I draw in the next 20 years if I’m lucky. I just want unit recommendations is all if anyone has experience….

Second in line if first guy falls through. Sent a PM

Is it smokeless powder compatible along with the BH209?

RIP remaining open mule deer units/quotas. Spikes all over the state about to get dirt naps..

If it helps your decision to buy a defiance, Stillar, or BAT action I’ll buy the REM Action if the price is right. Always go custom over factory action. You’ll spend as much to get it trued all said and done and still won’t be the quality of a custom. Shoot me a PM about the Rem Action about selling it if you want to. Looking to build a muzzleloader

Drew a late archery elk tag and was excited because anytime hunting elk in AZ is exciting. Well found out I had the stupid covid shoot after 4 tests the day before I left due to hacking up a lung non stop.figured what better way to quarantine than go camp solo in northern Az. Long story short busted Friday trying to find a camp spot getting stuck in the mud and what not. Changed plans found a nice spot in the lower country and started hunting. Found tons of deer and antelope but not many elk. Saturday evening found a herd of bulls from rags to one big 370 type bull. Plan Sunday morning go relocate bull. Got to glassing and never found said bull but found this bull. Bailed off the glassing hill and cut the distance. Got to the herd from 40-60 yards. They either herd me or wind switched and ran. Bull stopped. Ranged him ar 103 and sent it. Arrow found the mark and he piled up. Not bad for a solo late hunt. 6th AZ archery bull in the freezer.

Just a proud post. Wife has killed 3 bucks in a row from 97”-99” she finally held out. Wife and I had a rough 4 days with wind and weather. Looking for 2 specific bucks I had found on my previous hunt that were substantially bigger. Found 12-15 bucks over the first 3 days with her turning down a high 90s” but turned him down on the 3rd day. With no luck we were about to call it quits on the last day when I glassed up this guy. Wife was okay with him so we made our move and she made a great shot at 169 yards. No long range needed with her stalking skills. She is a real trooper and loves her some Coues bucks. She finally broke her 100” goal.

Don’t stress. I’ll be in a neighboring unit tent camping for the late archery hunt solo at the same time. Just think of how it could be worse. I’m bringing more wood cutting gear than hunting supplies…..

What reticle?

You’re just feeling a sense of entitlement. There are opportunities to hunt every season every year. You choose to not to capitalize on that by only applying for the most desirable tags.

Not even remotely close to the bonus pass for anything. You haven’t waited in line nearly half as long as others. You have the same odds in the random draw as everyone else. Learn to hunt better and you can kill the same quality in easy to draw every year units as the trophy units just takes more work. This crybaby BS is quite funny.

Sorry should of listed that in the post. Looking for either Standard .470 or magnum .540 bolt face.

Looking for a 700 short action preferably stainless. Will also consider complete rifle ADL, BDL, CDL. condition not of concern. Will take a long action 700 as well for the right price. Send me a message if you have an action or rifle your willing to part with. Thank you, Travis

You should apply for sheep instead… exactly what you’re looking for. Low draw odds quality hunt…

Does anyone on here have any information or leads on who I could purchase a New Mexico Land owner tag for antelope for 2022? My Step Father is getting up there in age and has 26 points in AZ for antelope but who knows how long he’s still got before drawing here in AZ. I’d like to get it for him as a Christmas gift. I don’t need a guided hunt for him just the tag we can purchase as I can take care of all of the logistics. Any input of help would be Greatly appreciated. thank you -Travis

I’ll take the CCI 209 M primers. PM sent

As you listed in your areas of interest “Saguaro National Park” I’d definitely focus on that. Best opportunity for hitting the rut in the time frame you’re working with. Just make sure to stay within the boundaries of the Saguaro National Park not outside of them. AZGFD watch that outside area surrounding pretty hard.

I got two pairs of the 12x42 NLs so far. Best binoculars to ever hit the market to date. Money well spend who ever buys these. If you order new hope you’re willing to wait in line on who ever orders them.

So no .338 285 Eld-M available?

I need some Hornady .338 270gn ELD-X and some 285gn ELD-M. Handful of boxes of each.

Well shoot I’m out of the loop. Apparently I’ve had elk tags in the wrong units too far away the past two years that hasn’t warranted a visit. Sorry trphyhntr looks like you’re stuck with waiting for BigLakeJake fishin reports.
