Title: Idaho super hunt deer tag.
Post by: 520backyard on June 08, 2017, 06:04:52 PM
Well got a call today from IDFG, I drew the super hunt tag for deer in any unit open in the state of Idaho. And as if that wasn't good enough, it's the cheapest out of state hunt ever at under 200 bucks, just have to pay for out of state hunting license and archery permit as the tag is free. Now to come up with and execute a good hunt plan.

Don't waste your money on the archery permit. Grab your rifle come over in November and hunt 45.

I've been there once or twice.

The archery hunt in 44 or 45 would be conducive to shooting a giant

The super hunt tag is any hunt. That includes draws. I don't know if you guys understand just what this tag is

That's it any deer season open including controlled hunts.

Buddy killed a 240 velvet buck with his bow a few years back in there. I'd still hunt the rifle season. All those big ones are still in there October

Funny thing is it was just an after thought purchase of 1 deer, 1 elk and 1 antelope. I bought a hell of a lot more moose tickets. I just figure when it comes to stuff like this I'm buying hope and you'r just buying a good feeling for awhile to have that hope. Every now and again it pays off.

Thanks I just might, I have a lot of homework to do, there is a lot of info and variables to cover. One thing is for sure though when I go over I'm not coming back until this tag is filled with something worthy of it. I can always find another job or girlfriend but this tag is something I'm not likely to ever see again, best to do it right.

Congrats! I ran into a guy in 45 who was with the super hunt winner from 2015. Not sure what unit they ended up finding his buck, they had a plan to check out a bunch of units. You're going to have a great Fall

If I could pick any tag to have in any state this is probably the tag I would choose.  There are a lot of good units to look at.  If I were you I would get ahold of JJhunter.  He seems to hunt a good draw unit every year. 

But if you want my  :twocents: I would hunt 55 in August, 45 in late October, and then finish out November in 40 then 54.

Probably going to do a late hunt in 44 or 45. When does the rut generally take place over there?

Hunt 44 the first week (Sept 15) for a pre scouted buck or 45 from the 24th-31st.

There are numerous units in Idaho that produce 200 to 240 class bucks, the toughest part is going to be deciding where to hunt! Congrats, excellent tag!
Title: Re: Idaho super hunt deer tag.
Post by: andrew_in_idaho on June 17, 2017, 08:38:58 PM
The season in 44 is sept 15-oct 31 and 45 is oct 15-31 so no late seasons in either one. You could hunt 40 in the first couple weeks of November if you want a rut hunt

Ok well I am gearing up and getting ready to head over to Idaho early next week and see what I can find worthy of this super hunt tag.  I also have a general season tag besides the super hunt tag as I didn't know they just give you your deer tag when you get drawn for a super hunt and so I bought one by mistake, turns out might not have been a bad mistake to make. I don't have a time to be back by so it's going to be a long hunting season. Two Idaho deer tags and and a lot of time to fill them so I think it'll be one whitetail, one mule deer so here I go.
