I decided to have my deer states as Colorado Nevada Arizona new Mexico, and Wyoming.

I want that early Nevada archery hunt bad. I love rural Nevada.

Post by: boneaddict on January 18, 2008, 01:33:26 PM: I'm waivering on Arizona. I just don't feel like I will ever get drawn there. No need to talk to me about how awesome it is, but the price for it, and odds of getting drawn. Holy cow. We bitch and moan about osts here in washington. Their super deer raffle ticket like 300 had is $30 each. :o
