Title: Utah will be hitting credit cards in about 4 weeks!
Post by: shanescottoutfitting on April 24, 2016, 09:19:37 PM
Utah usually starts hitting credit cards in about 4 weeks.  I am looking forward another great year!  Hopefully my family and I will get some luck!! 2015 was fantastic!
Anybody else hoping for some Utah luck in 2016?

Waiting on New Mexico any day now and then Utah- not real optimistic though. First time putting in for either and the odds weren't very good for nonresident. Then to buy a Wyoming point and out in for idaho in June if I remember correctly.

Probably used up my Utah luck for a few years after drawing late Book Cliffs elk last year. 

But I'd love some luck on Book Cliffs muzzy deer this year!

Paunsy muley tag is what I'm hoping for, or a Zion sheep tag!

That mountain out your window Shane is calling my name!  Kid pulled it in 2011.  Un freakin' believable.  Of course a sheep tag would probably put me in the hospital, but it's a risk worth taking!   :chuckle:

I'm in for deer and elk and bison draws in Utah. Not many points so not holding out too much hope but can still dream right?

Good luck to all in the draw!

We are hoping to draw Wasatch Mtn East (archery). First year down there. So if anyone has advice it would be greatly appreciated. I have been using google earth everyday!

Hey ffbowhunter,  I've not hunt the Wasatch but have family and other contacts down there.  Free feel to get in touch if you draw and I'll get you started.

I've got 15 points for elk so I'm getting close. Some of my hunters have quite a few points too. One of my guides who lives in Utah said they drew yesterday. It doesn't show on the UDWR website yet, I just checked.

I got hit last night for the general season buck. Nothing on the harder draws yet. Probably more to come in the next week. Can't wait, this is now my yearly trek. Love that place. Hopefully get that buck and a nice cow this year with the bow.

FFbowhunter, if the Wasatch is anything like Manti start working out. We hunted around 10,000FT and it kicked my ass. Working out heavy now to get ready, only 3 months and 7 days still opening.

It is beautiful there plus there are lots of animals. I stalked through the woods looking for cows and kept finding mulies bedded down. Really cool being 30yards away and they think you cant see them.

My guide and I were glassing one morning and all of a sudden 4 bucks ran across the ridge about 4 hundred yards away. Two good shooters in the bunch. I had stalks for big bucks and little 4x4s and does kept getting in the way. Never seen anything like it. So cool.

  Ive hunted that LaSalle unit for over 20 years, if you know the area you will see some monster bulls.  Hunt runs concurrent to the muzzy deer hunt and most years we could have taken several very nice bulls while deer hunting. They come and go from the private ranches and if you get to know the coming/going spots it really helps.  If you hit it right you'll hear more whistling and grunting in one day than you'll hear around here in a month. Good Luck.  I never seem to be able to draw.

Late rifle hunt is a lot different than the muzzy hunt.  You'll be surprised how many hunters you'll see, but most don't really get out an hunt much.(muzzy hunt in Utah is a way bigger thing than here in Wa.)  Usually very warm and you'll need to take into consideration cooling your animal.  I've been down there on some muzzy hunts where the daytime temperature is in the 80's.  Animals still move a lot for water which is usually not a factor on the late hunt.  Depending on where you go, the summertime mtn. bikers and hikers can be a real pain in the ---, nothing like sneaking up a trail and running into a dozen mtn. bikers riding down it. Lot of the roads have been converted over to ATV only the last couple of years and recommend taking one along if you have one.  It's a great hunt, and sometimes just messing around we've called in 2-3 nice bulls while deer hunting-biggest bull I've seen in my life nearly ran over me down there a couple of years ago during the muzzy deer hunt.

Congrats to all the LE draw winners. Dreaming of making before I am too old to use it. I did get my Manti general season Buck tag. Over the counter cow tag is a coming. Best two weeks of the year. Working my butt off to get in shape, those mountains kicked my tail last year.
