2022 Peaches Quality Rifle tag
« on: July 06, 2022, 05:13:34 PM »
Well after 18 years of putting in I finally drew!  Looking forward to a great hunt in some beautiful country.  Been studying maps and made one trip up near Fife's peak a couple weeks ago.  Headed back this weekend to explore some other areas that look to have potential.  Would welcome and appreciate any input or lessons learned from others who have hunted this area and willing to share.  I'll continue to post pics/updates as I prep for the last week in September!

Delphihunter,  I have not been into the Peaches Ridge unit much but have tried to pull a branch bull tag in there. If you are looking for someone to tag along with to learn some new area, Pm me, I am a willing participant.

Head up towards Ravens roost
I liked the sand creek area
Good luck

I had the archery tag few years back but didn’t get a shot

Have a cabin in the unit, spend lots of time there and have for years.  FYI, you’d be surprised how low you can go for good bulls in that unit.

With that tag I think it would be best to go to the high elevation logging road.  Fifes ridge roads area.  There r bulls all over

really appreciate the info/advice received.  Been down twice and getting a better feel for the area - looking forward to many more scouting trips and hope to get a few cams out by end of the month.  Stay tuned!

I've got a cow tag in there for modern firearm season.  Been in there twice so far to scout.  Send me a PM.  Happy to share what i've been seeing.

I don’t know what I would recommend for this tag as I had the bull tag. I would say I should have hunted it different. Never a sure thing but I passed on about 18 bulls. Couldn’t find the big boys once my season started and it snowed and froze over so timber hunting was a bust. During my scouting trips and the time frame you will be in there, I saw no shortage of shooter bulls.

I can pass along some info but boots on the ground and local knowledge is the way to make the most out of this tag. If you do not live in the unit or have ample knowledge of this hunt, I would honestly say to run with the outfitter in that area. Talk to Brian or Ty.

Picture of a decent bull I was able to turn up.
