The deadline for applying to Nevada for a big game tag is rapidly approaching.  Hunters have until April 21 to submit their applications to the Nevada Department of Wildlife

Nevada has 3 species of sheep, plus mountain goat, mule deer, pronghorn and elk.  Nevada traditionally has lower game densities than states such as Colorado, Wyoming and Montana, but trophy quality is not lacking.  Nevada produces some monster elk and mule deer in some of their more coveted hunting units.  A unique opportunity exists in Nevada where archery seasons for mule deer open on August 1st, providing one of the nation’s best chances to monster velvet mulies in the highcountry.

Personally, I’ve never been to Nevada hunting, but I definitely have my eyes on one of their highcountry early season archery hunts…just gotta draw that tag.
