couesdeerhntr Report post Posted June 28, 2011 I am right there with you have not done any scouting in the Coronado due to the closures and I think I am going to change things up this year and maybe hunt some mule deer. I am pretty sure the Tonto national forest isn't closed . Coues and mule deer in most those units. My buddy lives in Vail and he is hunting in his back yard lol other than that I don't no what to tell you for hunting in Tucson sorry. Mule deer here I come if we don't get any rain in southern az Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZLance Report post Posted June 28, 2011 36 A & C are pretty much all state land... Rumor has it that the State Land department is going to close access to State land next week, if there is no rain... better hurry up or pray for rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldboy Report post Posted June 29, 2011 Guys, give the rains a chance. The monsoons will hit at some point. Maybe they'll be late, maybe they'll be on time, but there will be some hope between now and August. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

natureboyfloyd Report post Posted July 12, 2011 My own stupid human trick related to this thread... I got a little nervous as well, and I did a great deal of scouting in the Little Tortolitas. Found mule deer, patterned and started on a blind. Of course, this unit 37A is closed to bow, but I somehow fixated on 37B as the unit closed for summer bow. Getting older... A friend reminded me, after I bragged about learnng about mulies w/in 10 yds of the blind,, one big coyote and a bobcat at 8feet twice. My wife came out and I told her we would see animals, and that bobcat dod not dissapoint. Gotta read that reg. book a little more often. Its all good?!?
