  If I drew the tag, is it worth getting excited about? :chuckle: :chuckle:

I've put in for this tag for well over 20 years. My 15yo son drew it this year. I'm glad I get to at least be a part of this hunt. I'm really looking forward to it! Sled, congrats on pulling a quality tag!

Curious on what a good buck is out there ? I live and hunted that unit for 40 years and between the four legged and two legged predator there’s not much left. Not saying a guy can’t shoot a 155-160 buck is not possible but it’s a long way away from a true quality hunt. We had the tag two years ago and hunted almost every day and never saw a buck over 160. Couple of those day I walk from cross over road to the river.

I do wish you all the luck in the world. And it is truly a fun hunt but just not what she use to be.

I too live here and I think 170 is doable. It’s definitely not as good as it was 10 years ago but its cool country.

While processing a cow elk in a well known canyon in 2016 we had two really nice mule deer walk past us.  Not wall hangers but 140 ish.   It I had the tag I would start up top and hike down the canyons.

Been a few years since i've been in there but I was hearing how it had gone down hill back then. I found plenty of really nice bucks. ended up with a 165 point buck. The biggest one i saw would probably have gone 180 if he hadn't been broken up so bad. I'll take this tag any time.
