AZ reports?

Smoked a javi on new years weekend. Located 15 does and 1 spike. Couldn't locate a branch antlered buck with em. Headed back out this weekend to get my Dad a javi and hopefully there is a buck on those does. I hunt around the Kofa area. Its crazy dry there.

NOW ARIZONA IS A STATE TO HUNT IN: The hunting season in Arizona allows unlimited tags with a bag limit of one mountain lion per hunter per year. ... The majority of the state was included in the Standard Management Zone where both prey species and mountain lions occur at higher densities.... Here Kitty, Kitty....

When I I finally draw my Kaibab tag I am gonna start putting some work into the Kofa. Not that far of a drive from our place at Martinez and it used to hold some monsters. I am sure there are a few in there but from what I understand they are few and far between.

You can hunt it (Kofa) now with the archery OTC tag. You nailed it though, its a rough hunt. I am probably going to switch areas and head further east in hopes for better numbers. I'm on the same page as you though. Going to hunt Strip or Kaibab then put in for easier units once I burn those points.

My first time hunting AZ. In 3 days I've seen probably 70 deer, almost all does. Finally saw some bucks today. Had two bucks who were together coming in straight at me and turned away all of a sudden from where I had hoped they would go. Didn't see the other deer to my side thru the bushes. They were all just hanging out. No aggression from the bigger buck. Gotta keep my head on a swivel.
 
I hate AZ...stick with it..little head will get um in trouble in the next couple weeks..i think..
 
Not a single deer in two days of hunting. All the tanks are dry near me. Time to start searching
 
Turned up about 30 deer over the past 3 days, 4 bucks. Had a 46 yard shot at a 30" wide crabby 3x3 but pin split or 56 instead of 46. That will haunt me forever.
 
Those are some nice deer indeed, great photos by the way. I need to check out their F&G, to see if that have a disabled hunter license for out of state hunters. I'd move back there if I didn't own a house here,
