Kodyromero50 Report post Posted August 1, 2019 I have a late season tag in Arizona for unit 5b. I hunted 5bs when I was young and have been scouting it recently, but I’m also looking into 5b North as well, just not sure where to start, any advice? Thanks in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swivelhead Report post Posted August 1, 2019 Welcome to the site. I don't have any place to send you but I would advise thick & nasty (steep too) is usually where late season bulls hang out. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is what I have been hearing, I usually get high and glass for deer and elk but 5bs doesn’t have too many glassing points from what I can find but I’m not sure about the North side. Ready to do some hiking though! Thanks for the reply Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can’t seem to find too many glassing points besides Anderson Mesa because of how tall the trees are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CATERPILLAR Report post Posted August 20, 2019 Don't get to high before you glass or you may start seeing things. Scouting on foot is usually the best way to find good glassing points, not many people are just gonna tell you where to go and glass on an internet forum. If someone was dumb enough to actually give you a glassing spot online then you would show up opening morning and there would be 80 other e-scouters sitting in the same spot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucafu1 Report post Posted August 20, 2019 Have you been out there yet? You dont need to get too high, there are lots of meadows and open areas to glass. You just need to find the right spots and angles to look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems like the best strategy to use is to walk and glass from different points. Found some nice places on Anderson Mesa but from what I remember there are always tons of hunters and pressure in that area Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tradman Report post Posted August 20, 2019 Hello to all, ive hunted and scouted 5bn many times. I actually scouted it again this past weekend. Seen some elk and pronghorn. I also have a 5b late bull tag. Same tag i had last year. I mainly stayed in the flats between the 40 and the mesas. Was able to tag a 4x4 bull the first wekend. My 3 other buddies also tagged out the same day. Although they were not monsters it was a good hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oz31p Report post Posted August 20, 2019 One important tip about this hunt is not to accidentally shoot a cow... before you laugh too hard, I know TWO brothers(my cousins) who each shot cows on 5b late rifle bull hunts In Different years. I hope they read this!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
