I’m pretty sure the rifle hunt had 100 tags a couple years ago.  And it’s at what now 85?  I know not a huge decrease but a decrease Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now 18a has 5. 10 should have 25. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lancetkenyon Report post Posted September 10, 2019 I have heard from 3 reputable guys that have killed: 82+, 82+, 85+ in unit 10 during this year's rifle season so far. Those are just guys I know.  I think people are taking one mediocre year and dissuading folks and/or downplaying the unit. No, I have never hunted antelope in unit 10, let alone AZ for that matter. But one guy laid eyes on over 30 bucks in 2-3 days of scouting prior to season opening, and claims a few bucks in the 80-82" range were seen and targeted. And this guy knows game very well. Maybe I should keep my mouth shut, and help discourage others from applying in 10 to help my chances next year going in with 26 points.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RNGRDOG Report post Posted September 10, 2019 This buck Josh killed was the 4th biggest we had scouted. A couple were considerably bigger. Here's a couple other pics of him.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just know what I was able to find in four days of scouting and I wasn’t impressed and didn’t see anything that made me want to keep the tag. This was the first time I had ever scouted for an antelope hunt so I’m sure there are guys out there that know where to look and how to find antelope a whole lot better than me. I’ll take it as a learning lesson and use it next time I have a tag. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZBIG10 Report post Posted September 10, 2019 I spent over $1k in gas money for an archery lope hunt. Only scouting. It was as probably as fun as the hunt. Dissected the unit entirely. Had a plan A,B,C and D buck.didnt tag out. It was the best hunt I’ve been on to date. I did smoke a coyote at 38 yds with my bow. That was such a bad butt hunt can’t wait to go again. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great looking buck!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
