I ahd the rifle tag in 02 and scouted for three consecutive weekends before the hunt, every time I went out the deer were lower in elevation. Next time (wishfull thinking) I get that tag I'll just go a few days early and check it out around the north end of the unit. Send me a pm if you want some more info.

well to be honest with you its pretty tough to scout a rifle tag down there because at the time of your hunt the bucks have migrated so for a rifle tag the best thing would be spend a few days down there before your hunt and find where your bucks are coming in. also the past year the southern end recieved massive pressure from the majority of the tag holders so if you could find someone who knows where they come in on the north end and get you pointed in the right direction i would believe you would see less hunters and a better quality of deer and with less hunters less people to compete with. but thats just my two cents
