Hey all,
My schedule in the Fall is really busy with work, so I have to try and get most of my hunting done before the second week of September - which obviously makes things a little complicated. I've got an elk trip planned this year, and am looking for options for the next few seasons. One thing that caught my eye was the July blacktail seasons in California. If I play my cards right, I might be able to take the family to see the Redwoods (Father In Law has always wanted to go, and it's #1 on his bucket list), and sneak in a little deer chasin' as well. Has anyone here ever done one of these hunts? Any tips for weather, tactics, etc? Also - are the tags OTC, or do I need to start building points now for them? I haven't spent much time researching the California system at all, but have started looking at it lately since GoHunt added them, but was a little confused on the process.
Thanks!
