coueshunter12 Report post Posted November 5, 2005 Hello Everyone! I am new to the website but have checked it out before. Well I drew out for the burro mountains in Unit 23 for January bow hunt for coues whitetail. I was wondering if anyone could maybe post some places where I should check out because I have only been there a couple of times and I didnt see anything. I hope you could give me some help because I hear this is a quality unit and I would like to have a good experience if I can. Thank you if you are able to help me!!

coueshunter12 Report post Posted November 9, 2005 Does anyone know anything about the burro mountains at all? I thought this would be a good site to ask some questions but I guess everyone is from Arizona on this thing and they dont know to much about the burro mountains in New Mexico! If anyone could be of any help it would be greatly apprectiated I would just like to know some general areas that I should go and maybe look for coues deer!! You can email me or send a pm. Thanks for all your help!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Report post Posted November 9, 2005 You have heard right, The Burro Mt. portion of 23 is a quality hunt. I think most of us from NM know that and don't have to be told! There are coues deer in much of the unit. Driving through some of the higher terrain you may see some. Get off the road and glass and you will see some. You need to spend some time in the next month glassing where you can and wearing out some shoe leather in the thicker stuff if you want to have a chance. Contact crazyaboutcoues here on this site and see what he can do for you. He provides a scouting service and is hunting the same hunt! Maybe he will help you out?

creed_az_88 Report post Posted November 9, 2005 my uncle lives in the burros. I go there every easter and see a whole lot of deer. Bucks ranging from little to BIG. Too bad all i really see is mule deer though. They are everywhere. The whitetail i have seen have actually been in the lower stuff. They have all been prety much out of the big trees and into the brush, cat claw, greasewood, etc. creed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
