204 late hunt

[highmuley]

I didn't get a chance this year to put in for unit 204 late hunt. I hope to next year. Has anyone else had a chance to hunt the late season in this unit (or other NE units)? If you don't mind, share you experiences and pix. I'm really excited to attempt to hunt mulies this time of year. Thanks

You didn't get a chance to put in for the 204 late hunt, but you're really excited to attempt to hunt muleys this time of year?  I'm confused.  You won't get a chance to hunt muleys late there or in any of the NE units unless you drew one of very very few tags.

i think he means in future years?

[buckfvr]

We'll see if that tags still available in about 2026 or so.......

[highmuley]

Yes...I know. I said it was too late for me to put in this year. I AM excited about the FUTURE prospect of hunting mule deer in November. Smart A$$

I've hunted all over in the NE for the past 12 years because I live near the 101, 105, 204 units. I've seem some huge muleys taken out of the 101.

That's a great buck! Ya, I know of some areas in 101. I've hunted 204 my whole life. I've seen some amazing bucks...not usually in october though. We've seen biggins in august, september and November. Kinda why I'm wanting to do the late hunt(s) or I may start bow hunting instead of modern. I can't miss in september. Its not uncommon, in a september weekend, to see 15+ bucks. Some with considerable size. Thanks for the photo.

That one was shot on 10/22/2010 on Vulcan Mtn.

This one is in my yard near Curlew 2012

Got a good spread on 'em. I'm huntin a bit further SW but, relatively the same "country".

I have a late rifle tag this year in 204 for whitetail only.. There is some big muleys in there but bigger ones in 101...  But huge whitetails in this unit im reay pumped for this hunt..

[highmuley]

We've seen some big WT in there. A heavy 7 x 7....I have a match set of real heavy sheds. 6 x 7 with a drop tine. The biggest muley we've seen was well over 200". A huge non-typical in september. Next biggest was right around 200" also in September. (Sizes of course are guesses).

[jess]

nice.. Yeah i live in republic so its in my back yard pretty much... i find alot of sheds in there mostly whitetails havent figured out the muleys out yet

My dad and I both had that late whitetail tag last year. It was a great time and hunt. Saw a lot of big muleys and a few good whitetaol

[antlerman]

I drew the 204 any buck tag (Nov.1 - Nov. 20) with 13 points finally.  It should be a good hunt.  I don't live far from the unit so I plan on hunting until I find one that is worthy.

[MuleySniper]

Lucky! Keep us posted on how you do.

We built a cabin in the 101 bordering 204 unit.  Hunted it for first time last year and cant wait to hit it good this year.  Seen 2 big muleys and many nice whitetail bucks!  Three weeks and Im outa here!!! Cant wait. Dont go without your bear tag.

[antlerman]

I will post a pic if I don't get too much ground shrinkage and eat a little crow.  I plan on using alot of vacation leave for this hunt.  I have a few leads for the hunt and don't plan on doing alot of pre seasaon scouting due to deer movement and pressure.  I will focus on a big muley unless a whitetail happens by that I cannot pass up.  I plan on putting the camptrailer somewhere on private land near Republic or possibly Waconda.

[MuleySniper]

Meh, shoot whatever pleases you. There are some stud whitey's in the area though!! I'll be looking for one with my bow a few days after your hunt ends.

[antlerman]

I usually bow hunt myself.  Just so happen I drew a multiseason tag, so I put in for the rifle hunt.  I may bring the bow along but will not hesitate with using the rifle if the buck of a lifetime is located.

[Mudman]

Maybe I c u up there!  Good luck!

there is 2 general late archery mule deer hunts up there

In 204 for mule deer

[MuleySniper]

The late archery is whitetail only in 204 unless you draw an "any deer" tag.

Where's your cabin ? PM me and let me know and maybe I'll meet up with you.

Do you think they will be rutting still in that time frame?

I wish.. Wouldn't that be sweet.

Any WT from Nov. 21st-Dec 15th is the only general hunt I'm seeing.
