Now it begins..2026 application season

Have any of you hunted unit 9 Late season in Arizona? Looking at this unit for 2026 season but have not hunted there before. What is a reasonable expectation for quality of bulls. I know it boarders the National Park and there are big bulls in there. Do many bulls stay in the unit after the rut or go back into the Park? I plan to get up there before the draw deadline.
Happy New Year and good luck with the draws.

I will ask, any suggestions on a guided ranch elk hunt in Wyoming for 26?

They kill a lot of animals but quite a bit of negative out there... no personal experience though.

Scott will have viable options.

Outwest Safaris in 108 is an easy hunt for a big bull if you can draw it. I know 3 guys who have done hunts with them. All passed dozens of bulls before selecting theirs to shoot.
