Well after 7 years I drew my rifle tag for 4C. I've been doing tons of research and think I'll be alright but I know there's guys on here that could probably help. I read most of the threads on here and try to help when I can but I'm a young guy at 19 and mainly just learn from you guys.
Well I'll be hunting opener with my dad and 2 of his buddies. Of course they're older guys who aren't as much for trophies so I could be limited on how I hunt at first. But my buddy who has far more western hunting experience is gonna come down and go with me for probably a week (depending on work and school at the time).
Should I take a weekend and go scout for bucks in the unit? Or what do you guys think? Should I do that soon or wait till during the fall? Since I can pretty much go anytime... I have hunted deer a lot but not much for out west sadly. At first I'll probably have my sights set higher 160"+. I won't have any trouble holding out for nice buck.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide. Send a PM if ya need.
Thanks again, Justin
