DBArcher Report post Posted June 19, 2004 Any one in here ever here about whitetails in Unit 19A. Yesterday, I saw three big whitetail bucks, two of them look to have 3X3 frames already. Just wondering if any one has ever seen this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rembrant Report post Posted June 20, 2004 DB, I think 19A would be a real sleeper. There is no late rifle Coues hunt there. Most of the any-antlered tag holders are probably fishin' for carp. I frequent the Cottonwood area as I have family there, and have been staring at those mountains for years. Just haven't carved out the time to stumble around in there yet. I think you just found yourself a wonderful archery oportunity. This sighting just saved you tons of hours of research. Be careful with you you share this location with - if you share it with anyone. But if you just have to tell someone, e-mail me!!! (now I'm fishin') Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GRONG Report post Posted June 20, 2004 I've hunted up there a fair amount for elk and in my high school years for a blind carp deer to shoot at but have never seen a Coues deer. I know where I'd go look if I ever wanted to put the time in but I just haven't. I know a guy that had a 100+ buck come into a tank he was sitting back in the late 80's up on top of Mingus. I take that back I did see a doe in Copper Cyn on the side of the freeway a couple years back and a dead one this winter along the freeway in the same canyon. I hate seeing dead Coues deer that get hit by cars. Last year one got whacked in between Camp Verde and the casino. Sounds like you've got a great spot to keep your eyes on.
