Do you have private access or are you going to try and hunt the public stuff?

Had it last year and had a great time. Some might say I missed a nice buck.....maybe even twice.

My attempt at that permit earned me a "NOT SELECTED" Congrats!:yeah: 15 years running now. :bash:
Congrats, should be a good hunt. :tup:

Should be a good hunt for a nice buck. Looking forward to it. I've hunted Blue Creek (Blue Mtn. Foothills West) many times for deer and Lick Creek for elk.

You should have a blast. Are you gonna go the first week or second week?
Haven't decided that, yet. May hunt part of both. Don't have private access, yet; may be working on that. I'd prefer to hunt public ground and will probably focus on Lick Creek and Mtn. View. If you think that is wrong to do, I'm open to suggestions. I'm guessing that the whitetails are closer to the wheatfields (that is my experience in other units near there). With 50 tags, I'm uncertain how the hunters will be distributed. Any history on that issue would be appreciated. I prefer to hunt where others don't.
The 100 Road and jackelope, what size bucks did you see? What should I be expecting or holding out for? How did you like the hunt? I don't know, yet, how much time I can dedicate to the hunt, which will dictate what I hold out for.
Hunter75 and toyman2, good luck on the tag. Woodchuck and elkburger, sorry you are waiting so long. I used 10 points to get the tag.

Holy crap. I had the west too. Wrong year, wrong tag. I'm a mess in this thread. Carry on without me.:chuckle: yeah that was two years ago. Time flies. I had 9 points and didn't draw that tag.

We went 1 for 2. We got lucky on a little bit of public land a had a 4 point chasing a hot doe. I tried to get on some access by permission only and the guy said his neighbors had the tags also so we couldn't access the land.
My advice would be knock on as many doors as you can. Go over early. Next time I'm taking my boat and hunting the breaks on the river.

There will be some mulies at the edges of the wheatfields, a few in the deeper holes above George Creek, and along the edges of the 43 Road before dropping into Mountainview.
This guy had just crossed the road and quickly headed to the bottom of Mountainview last season.

Got some places - check you PM.
Thx.

Thanks for the advice.
Firedogg, its whitetail buck only. I'd rather be hunting mule deers, but that would be a "quality buck" tag, not just a "buck tag."

Best advice I can give you is be there for the entire season if possible.
Doubt I'll be able to swing two full weeks.
Go the 2nd week!!!Thanks for the advice. I'm thinking about splitting my time between the first couple days and then the last few days. Makes me drive more and lose time in the back-and-forth, but those are probably the best days for me to hunt.
