Should be a blast, sounds like a ton of bucks, but turning up a 170" or better is tough. Research starts now, but I have a buddy who drew a books rifle elk tag and they are already scouting it they will be keeping an eye out for good bucks. I also have a buddy that has the archery deer tag and is going to share whatever he learns and sees down there.

Im looking at the roadless section to get away.

Draw the Little creek road less. Hire a great outfitter and have the best hunt of your life.
Muzzle loader season is prime. You cant worry about what other people are going to kill before you get there. Just show up and give it an honest 100% you wont be disappointed you picked the Bookcliffs.

If an outfitter is out of the question than i would say the Roadless area should also be out of the question. Just for safety and the logistics of the hunt. Bitter creek south is a much better choice for a diy hunter.

I would do everything i could to be deadly out to 200. I know that sounds like a long ways, but it is where you need to be. Unless you are very good at calling bulls into you you will be atleast 150 or more on most encounters.

Good luck and take lots of pics if you can, does Utah have a point system?  If so, how many did you have?  Thought about that tag for years but never tried.

Yeah..its a max point state where 75% of the tags go to max point holders and the remaining 25% go to random draw to everyone else who do not have max points. I only had 5 pts this year so i got really lucky. In a unit where there is only 1 tag its all random draw

UT has a cheap point system.. $65 licenses and its good for 365 days from date of purchase so you can apply 2 years on 1 licenses plus app fee which is $10
