Title: Dessert Unit Early Archery
Post by: buckhorn2 on June 24, 2024, 10:30:59 AM: Let’s see all those Nice bucks taken or seen in the early archery sept 1-29in the Dessert unit in the last 5 years? Anyone got an opinion on if this is the best dessert tag to draw? Anyone got some pictures of the quality of bucks that are running around there early?

It was before 2013 when I graduated post-grad stuff. I still remember the day hunting came up in class and Cory turned his lap top screen toward us and showed us his dad with the beast. If I recall correctly, it looked similar to the huge mule Steve Rinella shot on the episode with Janis and Weatherby on a guided horseback.

my dad was region 2 wildlife biologist and at first thought maybe we went to school but Im not Cory lol. I hunted the area with my dad as I grew up before it became a draw only and we have taken some decent ones then. and if the tag holder needs some help msg me and we can pass some info.

I would get it wrong too except for this useful saying from an elementary school teacher:
Desert = sand
Dessert = Strawberry Sundae.
