The reason I am entertaining the idea on going to the "new" spot is because my first deer I killed, I never set foot in that area until opening day. And I killed this big joker:

I have always had better luck just popping into a new area. I have hunted this new area a little bit. Lucky couldn't be found last rifle season and that are was flooded. Word got out about him also. Every hunter I talked to was chasing a buck like this in the same couple canyons, ridges etc. so I don't know for sure if lucky is still lucky.

This year will be a new area for me too, I have only been there via Google earth. I plan on coming up mid August and spending a couple of weeks.

It's hard convincing my parents to go 6 hours 1 way to scout. And they surely won't let me go alone. Good news is I know the area. Just am not sure how to approach it in terms of stalking. They hide in the aspen stands and don't know how some approach that situation. So I will create a thread for that.

ok, slight change in plans, moved hunt up from last two weeks of August to the 1st two weeks of the season. Sent an email out to the office staff ( I will be out of the office from mid day on the 9th of August and will be back in the office on August the 26th.) Ready for some spot and stalk action on some " fuzzy antlered" muledeer.

less than 60 days to go...
It's torture! I shot my bow in Ely and felt confident. If I can just fix my 3rd axis and tune my Broadheads to the bow I am set. I shouldn't have to make any adjustments.
