southpaw Report post Posted May 4, 2005 He guys...I've got a feeling that this is the year for some big bucks and bulls taken...last year was a great year also, but with all the rain we've had, the new policy for puttig in with mailing applications, and me getting my new swaro's(hahaah) ...i think this is going to be a awesome year for deer and elk..I was out in january bowhunting and saw several good bucks both mulie and coues...so unless someone got lucky with a bow....they are only going to get bigger this year!! I hope you guys feel the same...it just makes the july phone call that much more exciting....on another note, what units you guys putting in for this year.. for me its 36a december then 34a for mulie....hopefully if i dont get drawn for december i can get lucky and find that brusier i shot with my bow last year if hes still walking...for elk its the same as always, 5b south bull then 5b south cow..i love that unit and it has some monster bulls waiting to be featured in the next trophy hunter mag( ohh ya).. mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

couesdiehard Report post Posted May 4, 2005 firstcoueswas80; Does that mean you are planning to put in for the same hunt in 36B? I really like that area and I would not mind one bit if my friends would be convinced to go back in there and try it again. As you probably recall I was in 36B last Nov. but the rest of my deer party got drawn in 29. They loved it and I am trying to get an idea of what hunts they are all putting on their apps. Every evening I have been pouring over the regs trying to find just the right picks for me, my wife and my son. I love it! Lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ultramag Report post Posted May 5, 2005 i hope its the start of good things to come.if we get good monson rains this summer the fawn crop should be awsome and that means lots more bucks in the future.and then everybody gets drawn.prey for more rain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
