Any sucess in 24A this weekend?

Recommended Posts

I truly believe there are no more bucks in 24A!! 4 days and not a single buck. I know they are there, they just aren't moving during daylight. I'll be back at it fri.

I'm in the same boat. I saw bucks just not the right species. I even glassed up mulies mixed in with whitetails as high as 5000ft. Ill be back at it again Tomorrow- the end of the hunt.

24a used to be a great hunt. The problem now is that with 4 hunts and over 1100 tags each year, the numbers and quality of the deer are going down. There are still some real nice bucks out there, but hunting from October through the end of the year without any rest they get real smart and start moving only at night. The same thing happened with the mule deer in the late 70's and 80's they started giving out over 1600 tags and totally decimated the heard. 24a seems to be the unit game and fish don't care about and use it as a money maker. The mule deer are making a small comeback, but I am sure that when the numbers get up a little they will start again with the over hunting.

That is a great deer. I dont think just 24a is the only unit with this problem. My dad said he read a news paper article that said the kill rare was to high so the only way gf saw to lower the rate was to raise the permits and it must be working. I blame the people who lie on the big game thing they send out
