Comm1 Report post Posted July 22, 2013 Sorry guys I never said what area I drew but it is 40 B the Mohawks and coppers. Also I did have max bonus points. The north end of area is about 9 miles from my front door as the crow flies so its very close to home! I know the area well as my best friend had a tag there last year and got a nice ram. If anyone knows who the other two tag holders are I would like to talk with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
