Free: Contests & Raffles.
Had it approximately 4-5 yrs ago when it was a quality tag. There is a reason it’s now just a buck tag....there are some nice bucks there. Just a lot of pressure. Saw several bird hunters, and others (deer hunting) driving the roads, yes others, exercising there ancestral rights, My biggest memory is being told by my brother who was watching my buddy and me through a spotting scope, about how a wolf followed us out a long ridge for quite awhile. Every time we’d stop so did the dog. When we went back to the spot the next day where my brother was watching us through his spotting scope (I wanted to see where the wolf was), sure enough not one but 3 wolves came across the saddle. Crazy, they worked methodically and with purpose, spacing, pace. Definitely fun hunt, a lot of country. We saw more quality, or what I would say quality bucks during elk season. Shouldn’t have a problem filling your tag. Pm me if you need anything
Sent you a message, I had the one tag last year for rifle around Thanksgiving
There are multiple ways to go about this hunt! Ways and areas! It’s a huge area with very steep ground or mellower ( not flat 😂) rolling open hills. I was up high last year in the snow during your season and didn’t cut one deer track all day! Did cut wolf tracks though! If it was my tag I’d start low and eliminate that ground!
We used to hunt there between pinkum butte and the smoothing iron steep country the reason you see big bucks during the elk season more people in the canyons to push them around my younger brother almost shot a muley buck in a snow storm down there during elk season said he couldn't believe the rack on on him also used to come off the tailbone and walk out was a lot younger back then

Stay away from Charlie creek very low numbers in there. Good to know! I was told by another hunter who is familiar with the area, that the snow was super deep during general. So I think I'll be stuck to down low state lands anyways.
