AZ DIY OTC Archery hunt first timer

[area808]

Hi guys new on here and allow me to introduce my self heres my youtube chanel lol.. http://www.youtube.com/user/AREA80hEight/videos but anyways 25yr old from hawaii and looking to come up to az to do a OTC hunt I've never hunted in the mainland before and this will be my first adventure. I use to live in AZ in avondale for about 2 years 10 years ago but was never really into hunting much just went fishing a couple of times.

I'm planning on doing a Bow hunt and have no idea where to start. how many days should i stay out there what i might need.


any advice on where to hunt? or if anyone ever wanted to take me out or whatever and possibly trade hunt for axis deer or mouflon or goats here on hawaii rifle or bow..


Thanks guys much appreciated..

I would start my research in this region. This is a very helpful website and the suggested areas are a great place to start.
