I was in 2C about 15 years ago so my take isn't current at all. 2C has always limited the # of tags which will lead to bigger deer just by sheer numbers alone. Most folks hunt the edge of the reservation and the chance for a true giant Mule deer is real. The hard part is getting drawn! Good Luck sir!

Ditto. Good luck getting drawn. But biggest mule deer by 50”+ I’ve ever seen in my life was walking down the shoulder of the highway that separates unit 2c and 2B. I nearly wrecked.

I got drawn 3 years ago for 2A, smaller unit than 2C. Did not have much luck seeing deer, except for 2 young 2x2's and one really nice 4x4 the night before opening and was standing right by the highway. The hunt was muzzleloader which also coincided with archery elk - of which I saw plenty!!! Beautiful country right next to the Jicarilla Reservation.

I hunted 2B many times quite a few years ago before the draw. Then one time during the draw. The last time when I got drawn the area had changed quite a bit. They had improved the roads and drilled numerous oil wells. There were more hunters than before the draw. I saw one 3X3 buck that hunt. Still saw a lot of wild horses like before. I saw and shot at the largest Mule Deer Buck I have ever seen during one of the hunts I did there before the draw.
