Gabuckthief Report post Posted January 8, 2022 Hey guys, me and my cousin were supposed to be flying into Tucson Jan 19-26 from Georgia to hunt bow-hunt couse in the border units, but now he can't come and I'm determined to make this trip happen still! Iv never been to AZ before but I have bow hunted deer successfully in several other states. I plan on renting a vehicle in Tucson and driving south till I see what I'm looking for, whether it be game, or good habitat for glassing/spot and stalk. I'm going to look for camping close by or just sleep on the side of the road in the bushes. I will probably live off peanuts and crackers and plan on buying a sleeping bag and throwing it away at the end of the journey unless y'all say there will be trees to hang a hammock. I plan on bringing a pistol, iv heard stories of the illegals but I'm 28 and pretty hard headed and just looking for a good adventure/hunt. Anyways anyone want to team up? Offer any advice? Or try to talk me out of it. Any help is welcome. Thanks to all!!! Also I kinda had 35a as a starting point but any other feedback is welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yotebuster Report post Posted January 8, 2022 All good advice. If you’re renting a car be sure there’s a spare and jack as you’ll probably wreck a tire if you climb out of the flats anywhere. There’s deer all over that unit and plenty of hammock trees in the canyons. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
