 Rainy |  10.mph | Report Type: Hunting Game Type: Trophy Mule Deer Location: Arizona Terrain: Desert |
Arizona offers an excellent Trophy Mule Deer Archery hunt in January. If your into spot and stalking big Mulies in the rut then I have a great and affordable hunt for you. We offer a 5 to 7 day hunt in Southern AZ FOR $2,950, thats right ! includes guiding , lodging, meals. In the past we have had near 100% shooting and around 50% kill on 170 or better bucks. No draw so getting a tag is no problem!

Made a scouting trip to my Antelope ranch today just west of our new lodge. It rained last night and water was puddled up in the road , great news ! we're going to have some more B/C bucks again this year . I glassed up over 15 bucks this morning in one hour, last year 3 of our bucks made B/C. Due to a couple of cancellations we have 2 antelope tags available for this October. If interested give me a call.
Kansas Draw

 Overcast | 10.mph | Report Type: Scouting Game Type: Kansas Whitetail Location: North Central Kansas Terrain: Mixed |
Just returned from a 5 day scouting trip to our leases in Kansas it looked great out there., Talked with all the farmers that we lease from and they reported good crops and were just starting to harvest their wheat while I was there. I released all 10,000 acres that we have had and we are hoping to draw enough hunters this year , as last year was the first year that Kansas went to a draw system and we only drew a few hunters. So we are keeping our fingers crossed until the draw results come out in July.

The afternoon thunder storms are hitting almost everyday not area wide but dumping good rain in areas. I recived a call from one of our ranchers reporting they got a great rain that filled up all their dirt tanks, this is great news for archery season we love to set up the Double Bull blinds on these water holes, he also reported that he saw 12 bulls on one of them!!

PRESEASON SCOUTING

I just spent this past week over in the Gila at my hunting lodge getting it ready for the September 1st Archery elk season. Every morning and afternoon I spent scouting, the past few weeks it has really dried out and I was worried that the bulls wouldn't finish with good horn growth. But I believe all is well I saw approximately 20 bulls and some of them had completely stripped their velvet and some were not rubbed at all. Most all seemed to have good tops and last night we glassed an 8x7 that is a 380 class bull. He was not rubbed at all and a smaller 330 bull that was with him was completely stripped ! Anway if it stays dry the waterholes should be excellent the first season. Next week I will be getting our trail cams out so hopefully some good pics to come. Shoot strait! Van Hale

ARCHERY ELK SEASON STARTED OUT SLOW WITH RAIN EVERYDAY FOR 23 DAYS IN A ROW MAKING IT REALLY TUFF HUNTING. THIS WEATER PUSHED THE RUT BACK ABOUT A WEEK TO 10 DAYS, BUT WHEN IT FINALLY CAME ON IT WAS WILD WE TOOK 5 NICE BULLS IN THE LAST 4 DAYS OF THE HUNT ALSO MISSING SEVERAL OTHERS! SO ALL IN ALL IT WAS A GOOD SEASON AND WITH THE LATE RUT THE MUZZLELOADERS SHOULD TAKE SOME GREAT BULLS.

We just finished up with our Trophy muzzleloader muledeer hunt and we really had a good hunt with a 100% kill with the top buck scoring just over 180B/C. This is a great hunt if you like big mulies still in the velvet we allway have a high success ratio. Two of our archery Elk hunters stayed over for this hunt and did both Tod Librandi from PA. Took home two nice Trophies
