Default MD in 166

Hey guys. My Brother has pulled a Trophy MD tag in 166. Do to some guys canceling out on him at the last minute, he wants me to come along with him.
Now I know my way around the big ranch north of Delia and of course the grassing lease on the south and west side of the Ranch.. But other than that I haven't explored the WMU that much..
Does anyone have any suggestions as to where else to look for a good Mule?
I have heard a bit about just north of Hanna, but like I said, I haven't been over that way.
Any help would be most appreciated as I think he will only have 2 chances to hunt this WM this year.

Thanks
Jamie

Well, looks like we will have more people coming with us.
Turns out in our group we have 2 Bull Moose tags, 1 Cow moose tag and 2 MD tags.. So it looks like we will be on the Ranch and area.
Anyone seen any moose out that way this year?
Jamie

Hi there Jamie
I was out there today and we walked across the lease -->east to west.....in the end we saw 6 different bull moose including 1 that was all of 50+ inches (PM me for location) and around 8 cow/calf. No big MD or WT bucks to be found....yet
Cheers

Default 166

Let me know when you're coming Jamie. I was out this morning and didn't see a mule deer where I had permission. Lots of Whiteys, though. No keepers. One yote dumb ass. I missed him at 250 yds. No bipod. He came back out of the bush about 3 minutes later and hes now at the local buyers. Stinky Coyotes 270 Win shells worked great. No damage on a pass through. Sounds like the ranch will be the place for the moose as they are a little scarce the last couple of years. I'll keep looking for a good Mule but normally they aren't around or out until the 15th or so.

Bag.. We will be out on Saturday.. (I think at this point)
Just for the day.
I was thinking about spending the night in Drum, but with us not changeing the clocks till sunday.. It makes it a bit more resonable.
PM me your cell # and I will see if we can get together for a hello and compare some notes

Thanks
Jamie

Going to 166 myself in about 6 hrs .
I have not hunted there in 10 years.
Wow your group has 2 bull moose tags and one cow tag.
A 166 moose tag is like priority...(25) . It's like Green Bay Packer season tickets.
You put in for your first born and when they turn 30 they might be on the short list.
