At a Glance
With Prescott at its southwestern corner, this mostly public unit provides hunting for mule deer, elk, Coues deer and antelope. It has produced pronghorns big enough to qualify for the Boone and Crockett record book, especially in the flatter and lower western half.
This unit includes challenging hunting for elk, mule deer and Coues deer due to their low or declining numbers, but offers excellent hunting for antelope. Private land limits access to state land in the west half where pronghorns live close to rural neighborhoods. Some private landowners offer walk-in access and some of them charge a fee. As development continues, ground open to hunters is shrinking. There is a low elk tag quota. This unit is mostly high desert terrain with juniper trees.
Quick Tips
- Get written private-land permission to hunt antelope
- Most elk are in juniper and scrub oak mix
- Respect landowners who allow and provide access
- Do not fire a gun within a quarter mile of a house
