[QUOTE="Marbleyes, post: 135681, member: 675"] Lots of good info above. Also, don't be afraid to check out some smaller, flatter creek bed areas. Have seen some giant bucks over the years in those areas people usually overlook for mulies. Just a tip but if you spook a deer and he takes off over a hill and you think you can just check over that hill and try to find him, you won't, they can cover a surprising amount of country in a short time. I've hunted with whitetail guys out there before and they tend to like to walk and push areas and think they can just follow the deer and find them after spooking them. It's not impossible to find them again but improbable. Also, make sure you don't shoot an animal in places you aren't prepared to get them out of. I suggest being prepared to quarter the deer instead of dragging it out, especially if it's just you and your wife. Some areas don't look too rugged but when you hike up and down these hills they can be surprisingly deceiving. Good luck and enjoy. There is a lot of beautiful country out there. Unfortunately, no one in my group got a tag this year but we will be going anyway just to enjoy the scenery. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] If I knew you were hunting the same unit we hunt I could give you some areas to check out with tons of open land. Not only for deer but also areas that hold bighorn sheep as well. I know you don't have a sheep tag but damn those things are cool to see and we see them in the same areas every year. [/QUOTE]
