CouesHunterAZ Report post Posted May 20, 2015 Here is my buck from last years hunt in 12A East. When we checked him in at the check point the Game and Fish personnel was courteous to show us photos of all the deer that had been checked in from all the 12 areas. I would say that there were some good bucks taken from the east side (170s range), but most of the bigger bucks were shot on the west side. If you choose to put in for any of the 12s, I would definitely add the west side. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oz31p Report post Posted May 21, 2015 image.jpgimage.jpg there are big bucks all over the state not one of these bucks are from the stripSshhhh. It was a better world when every one thought all big bucks came from 12/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shooterpar Report post Posted May 21, 2015 If you truly don't mind waiting then wait for a strip tag. You will not regret it. If ya don't want to wait that long then pick a unit close to home where you can learn every inch and scout a ton. You'll find a buck that you'll be happy with. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roninflag Report post Posted May 22, 2015 at the risk of being labeled an" under achiever"...... i could be quite satisfied with a buck 10 % or even 20% smaller the the 296# from the kofas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
308Nut Report post Posted May 22, 2015 I imagine the kofa has attracted a lot of attention since this buck was killed. I wonder how many points it will take to make the points pass this year... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buglethemin Report post Posted May 23, 2015 I like the desert units south of the ditch. Easy to draw and here are some bucks we chased last year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Havasuhunter Report post Posted May 24, 2015 Lots of great info here. I'm building points in multiple places too. AZ is a tough one, hold out for a strip tag or go with raider units to draw. Just wish I had more time to scout. I'm usually stuck in other states working. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
