CRAZYBUCK Report post Posted February 12, 2017 My father in law will be going in with 23 and more than likely the last year for him to be able to hunt.Is 23 points enough he's leaning towards 10 or possibly 4a just want to get the tag then we will put in the work to find a respectable buck 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CRAZYBUCK Report post Posted February 12, 2017 Haha that's what I told him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trphyhntr Report post Posted February 12, 2017 It was 23-24 last year for 10 and 23 in 4a. So If he has 23 this year, maybe. Probably has a 3% chance though more than likely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonecollector Report post Posted February 12, 2017 If this is the last yr he can hunt, make sure he puts in for a unit he can draw, why take the chance of not drawing? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yotebuster Report post Posted February 12, 2017 What about 19a muzzy? Guaranteed he'd get it. With muzzleloader technology these days there isn't a goat in the unit you couldn't kill with a little patience and some range time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Private land issues make some of those goats unkillable. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Private land issues make some of those goats unkillable. Very true. I probably should have phrased that a little different. I was meaning more along the lines of the weapon then the land ownership but you are correct on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted February 12, 2017 If this is the last yr he can hunt, make sure he puts in for a unit he can draw, why take the chance of not drawing? That was my first thought as well. If it's likely to be the last chance to hunt I'd rather get a tag then hope and pray to get a trophy tag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRAZYBUCK Report post Posted February 12, 2017 19a was a thought but didn't want to deal with private property issue and he's not completely out of commission yet just doesn't get around as good his thoughts were I've waited this long why settle we know 4a and 10 pretty well that's the only reason we were thinking those units Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
