I have never hunted out of my State. Still a newbie. Next year will be my third bow season. In my third year I'm ditching the truck and putting on the Kifaru. That being said, I want to put in for Nevada Archery Mule Deer. I am requesting that one of you fine gentlemen please help me out with draw strateg . I have no idea about the different units. I'm from Susanville, and the Units I'd be interested in would probably be Northwest Nevada. Are those decent Units with decent draw odds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
I've heard the rubies are an easy draw..

I would have to look at the map to see what units are where since I've never hunted or lived there. But if I were you I would put pretty hard to draw trophy units as your first 3-4 choices, then your last choice or last two choices would be something like 10 early archery and 7 early archery. Since Nevada looks at all 5 of your choices before moving onto the next application it doesn't hurt to swing for the fences on your first few choices.

I believe 7 and 10 would be fairly close to where you are talking about and some of the easier draw odds.

Thanks bro! Yeah I'm a dam rookie when it comes to hunting out of state. I'll keep that in mind for sure!
 
If you want to hunt northwest Nevada, you may have to wait a few years to draw..those units (011-015) don't offer many non resident tags. You could check the draw odds for the late archery hunt in 021. I've heard that can be a good hunt. Odds in NV are steep for NR
 
They cut a lot of tags from the NR pool in the Rubies this year. Don't anticipate it will be any different for next year. I have one point now so that'll help a bit, but not much.

Yeah my bubble got burst last night! Lol. Looks like I'll be putting in for a while before I get the go ahead! Haha

Man I wonder how South Cox gets it done ever year!? Thanks for the realistic advice.
 
If I were you I would open up your range rather than limiting yourself to only the northwest corner of the state. Personally, I like to hunt every year, so I'm willing to put in for an area that is a little further away and maybe doesn't have a great success rate, but has a wilderness area that will require some sweat equity to find bucks. Find a unit like that with half decent draw odds and then just hope for the best.
