Greenhorn Report post Posted March 4, 2020 IT looks like I was hit for $550 and I have a rifle antelope permit coming - likely 17A. I created an account here over a decade ago, and remembered this place was heavy on the Arizona content. If anybody can post up pics of bucks from 17A I'd love to see some past animals. Since there's only 2 permits, id be just as amped up to see bucks taken in 17B either 18s and 19B. I'm looking forward to a long road trip and some antelope hunting this year. Good luck to the rest of you in the draws. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZkiller Report post Posted March 4, 2020 Congrats on the tag! Welcome back. Those other units aren't a direct comparison. Spend as much time scouting as you can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenhorn Report post Posted March 4, 2020 Thanks for the photos. Those are real nice ones. I suspect I'll be there well before the season to look around. I suspect since all those other units border 17A, there could be some similar-type goats around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Explorer Report post Posted March 4, 2020 Either gonna be hunting public access on the yavapai or paying the K4 to hunt. Only two places in 17a with goats. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenhorn Report post Posted March 5, 2020 I've heard the goat habitat is limited to those places. I doubt I'll pay a trespass fee as my budget barely covers the price of the permit and the gas. What is the price of the K4 access? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delw Report post Posted March 5, 2020 greenhorn you aint going to find anything close to what you have killed, In Az especially non typical's which you seem to dominate that department since your were like 16 years old. Hope you and your family are doing will. you boys what about 25 now? Time flies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenhorn Report post Posted March 5, 2020 delw - long time! I'm coming for a fun time - surprised to have drawn as the odd are terribly low. I'm sure there's a couple decent bucks around. Will really enjoy the new scenery. My boy's 19 now. He shot a pretty decent MT buck last fall up here. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delw Report post Posted March 5, 2020 nice lope Long time for sure. I thought he was older than my daughter there the same age. Oh yeah theres a few I am sure. I know a few places in the 18 west sides and 19a that hold lopes we see them when yote hunting, should be going up a few times before the season this year if anything grabs my Attention I'll pm you. good luck to you. BTW you still doing those little hikes and getting beat by the chubby city girls up there LOL. those were some funny butt stories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greenhorn Report post Posted March 5, 2020 Del, those places you mention a quite a ways from where I'll be hunting. But any Arizona antelope photos here would be certainly great to see here. Last time I was down that way antelope hunting was almost 25 years ago in 19A. I had a muzzleloader permit - man there were some big bucks around but more of a suburban/private land hunt than this one might be. I applied for 5B first choice, but I'm assuming I drew 17A - I'm not that lucky. - Will likely see official results soon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why were you throating pigskin? For crying out loud there are kids trying to buy guns on this site. You can’t be talking like that... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
worklessfishmore Report post Posted April 10, 2020 Congrats Greenhorn So you are the one who drew Tag #2. Was scouting there today on the Yavapia , not much to see but my wife drew a few years ago and took a really nice buck that scored 82, we called him captain hook. She also took one in 19a that scored 88 5/8 net. Ill dig up some pictures and try and post. Since its just you and me lets keep in touch. There should be some really good bucks traveling back and forth from 18a,and 19b 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
