Unit 4B Rifle Tag

Recommended Posts

I am curious if anyone has had this tag? If so, what kind of buck can you expect to see? I have a friend that drew this tag and he has never hunted 4B. He plans on scouting a bunch, and already has found some good bucks that look to be in the high 70's, low 80's. I am planning on helping him on his hunt and wondered if any of you guys have any areas to look at or avoid. Any input is appreciated.

Thanks for your input. I passed the info on to my friend and he should be contacting them soon. I think I am almost as excited as he is about his antelope tag.

It should be a great hunt I had the archery tag last year lots of bucks in the 60s and 70s we saw 2 that would go 80 to 82 and one we thought was pushing 90+!!!!!!! Get off the beating path and you will find some good ones

This is a great unit for a fun hunt. My recommendation would be to shoot the first buck you think will go over 80. I know there are probably a few that will go over 80 in the unit but I would not expect much above 84-85. I had the tag in 2001 and killed an 82 2/8 net buck and in 2010 I assisted a friend from New Mexico and we killed an 81 4/8 buck. The funny thing is we could of killed the 81" buck the first thing in the morning on opening day but we elected to pass. We passed up well over a dozen bucks throughout the day and ended up going back to the first buck of the morning. We did not kill him that night but the next morning.

 

Good Luck
