Title: Anyone Draw Dayton A???
Post by: Dayton Elk on August 09, 2009, 05:05:16 PM: I have been lucky and have the tag and don't know how good the unit is? I hear that there is a lot of private and public access and that the public has some great bulls? Is it a difficult area?

Hey, thanks for the great pic's those are some great bulls. I will look in the archives thanks for the suggetion. THose pictures appear to be on private land? Probably hard to get access. I have never used a guide yet would be open to working with one on this hunt, would you happen to know anyone in the area that is good? Thanks for your time. Cheers Dave
