rossislider Report post Posted May 14, 2016 Some sponsors of this site focus on and guide that unit. Don't know if he is completely booked up, but I'd call Shane Koury of Koury Guide Service out of Show Low/Pine Top. I know a couple of other good ones, but they are already doing personal hunts.

doogan Report post Posted May 14, 2016 Jeff Lester at HuntHard outfitters is tough to beatI second Jeff, great guy, great guide. But you can't go wrong with Jed from A3 either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shanehamblin Report post Posted May 14, 2016 Call Jeff with hunt hard. I agree bowhnt. Lee is maybe the best in that unit. He guides for Jeff. Whether it's Jeff guiding you or one of his guides I guarantee you he has the cream of the crop in that unit working for him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trphyhntr Report post Posted May 14, 2016 I hate to be that guy but, just go there and hunt hard it's unit 1 babe 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coach Report post Posted May 14, 2016 You - you'll get more out of it DIY in my honest opinion whether you kill a big bull or not. If you are dead-set on a guide, Jed Larson with A3 knows unit 1 as well as anyone. I don't know Jeff or Lee but they obviously come highly recommended. Shane Koury is local and has worked with Jed a lot. I know he specializes in 3A/3C but is also very familiar with 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonecollector777 Report post Posted May 14, 2016 Burnt timber outfitters has done well in unit 1. The specialize in 3c and 1. Also have seen some good stuff from premium hunts. I think premium hunts is from Springerville. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rossislider Report post Posted May 14, 2016 I haven't hunted with Burnt Timber but have met and chatted with Daniel Franco a few times. Good guy. I'd definitely give them some consideration as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shanehamblin Report post Posted May 14, 2016 Yup Premium Hunts are a small outfit in Eagar. Easily the hardest working guys hitting the hills. The only reason I say hunt hard is these guys guide for Jeff when they don't have hunts going on at the same time. Call Justin 928-245-8722. And everyone saying A3 these are all the guys that used to work for A3 when they used to kill big bulls in 1 and 27. General hunts and auction Bulls. They don't work for A3 anymore. Not dogging A3 they still might have good guide in these units I don't know but these guys are the ones responsible for almost every auction bull killed since 2012 outside of the one Jed Larson found last year. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rossislider Report post Posted May 14, 2016 Jed Larson, another guy that should be at the top of the list. Great guy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
