A22 again, can’t complain. Looking to expand my scouting to some other areas besides Laguna.

Thank you!

This may be a stupid question but can I hunt the Laguna Mountain Rec Area with an AO tag during the D16 season? I was up checking cameras on Wednesday awaiting the opening of the A22 season again tomorrow morning (11/17) and saw plenty of hunters, guess I never really thought about it. This is...

30 yards from my stand. Kinda wish I didn’t catch it on camera.

Nice work! Congrats

Amazing recap! Congrats, that's a really nice deer.

I hunted that draw unit last year but in January not October, plenty of quail but tough to hunt without a partner to block for you. Do you have OnX Maps? I'll send you the waypoint for the spot in the valley I saw the most quail.

Roughly 5:30am, an hour before good shooting light.

Last night I was in the stand by 5:00pm, at around 6:30 its getting dark fast i'm starting to get ready to gather up the equipment and come down when I finally see a deer moving along the tree/brush line directly in front of me at about 65 yards. He disappears behind another tree and then pops...

Hello all, This is my first year hunting deer and i drew A22 which is what I wanted. I have a treestand over a decent sized open meadow at the top of a fairly steep ridge in the Lagunas. There is plenty of fresh deer sign and I get frequent pics on my game cameras so i know there are deer in...

Just switched to a 5 pin slider, all .010 pins (BG Ascent Verdict). I’m liking it so far, hopefully I get a chance to put it to the test this season.

Thanks for all the tips! Having never gutted a deer before I think I’ll stick with the traditional gutting method if the opportunity presents itself.

Hello all, Newb question about processing after the kill. Assuming i'm able to successfully harvest a early A22 deer i'm expecting warm temps even in the morning and evenings. Do you prefer to gut out the deer and then piece it out for the pack out (slower) or use the gutless method to get the...

Hello all, anyone have any experience with these SHARE hunts? Specifically the July/August Archery only periods? Are they worth the drive from San Diego for a quick weekend hunt? I have my A22 tag for the fall but looking to supplement my chances with one of these hunts possibly, they only...

Nope on A16 and A20 but yes on A22. Makes for a short drive! No on elk and sheep.

The first choice is A16, not D16. It's the X9A archery only zone, A20 is X12 archery only. Both should be hard to draw leaving me with A22 for the 3rd option which is home area anyway. Thanks,

I've always been a upland game hunter (IV dove, pheasant, and quail) but finally decided to venture into the world of Big Game. Picked up archery early last year so this is my first year entering for tags (0 points). Thoughts? Deer: 1st-A16, 2nd-A20, 3rd-A22 Sheep: 504 Orocopia Elk: 337 Lone...
