I was up north last week and couldn't believe how green it was! Unbelievable! Saw a bunch of bulls, some in that 320-360 range. My buddy went up Friday night/yesterday and set up his camp. He said the bulls were bugling all night. The NWS is forecasting some heavy moisture to move in mid/latter part of next week. Maybe it will push the rut along??
I have taken a bunch of animals with a bow but due to difficulty in drawing an AZ tag along with plain bad luck taking an elk hasn't happened yet. I am hoping this is the year to break that jinx. Good luck to all!

Terry, if I remember you are in unit 22? I am hunting north of you near Happy Jack. It's higher than you so it may be a bit cooler. I think there is actually a touch of fall in the air.

Leaving tomorrow for Elk hunt in 7 West. Drew this tag with only 3 points. Can't get any luckier that that.

Kip, Here's a bull I saw in your unit when I was scouting in July.

Unless you guys have a bunch of points already or just set on drawing one of the "premium" hunts I would certainly consider one of the middle of the pack units. AZ elk hunting in nearly any unit can be a great experience!
