Hoof Hearted Report post Posted November 14, 2022 Curious how you 36A guys have done so far. My son has the youth hunt starting this Friday and I'm having a bit of an existential crisis. He's 13 and has killed a couple Coues deer already so I'd like to get him on a muley, but we're not picky either and only have a couple days to hunt. I'm very familiar with the unit so I have plenty of places to go look for either, but I admittedly haven't hunted down there since 2018 and it's been 15 years since I was looking for muleys on purpose. I know I can find a Coues buck, but muleys are more of a nemesis for me, especially in these desert units, so just curious what your experience was in the earlier seasons if you're willing to share (publicly or PM). Thanks! -Luke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoof Hearted Report post Posted November 14, 2022 Thanks bigorange. That is a great suggestion and I appreciate you mentioning it. I had looked into it but they already had the max 200 people sign up, so they weren't taking any additional youths. Honestly, I'd rather avoid that rodeo anyway and just hunt solo with my son, but it was certainly worth a look in case we got desperate. 🤣 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shooterpar Report post Posted December 15, 2022 What we’re everyone’s thoughts on 36a this year? Wife has her first hunt going on right now, probably head down after Christmas for the week unless we hear things are rutting early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EarlyBronco Report post Posted December 15, 2022 Yes I’ve been on it once with another buddy 3 years ago, it snowed and sleeted on us , and seen plenty deer , seen some try to mount does and a lot of chasing too, pretty cool hunt but freezing tho, this was the weekend before Christmas, that’s why I was asking why they were just going one week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
