Thankfully my wife of 18 years also spends some time with me. Her birthday was yesterday this is what we did since Wed. My tag, her birthday. I'm a lucky guy

Most of my friends who r die hard hunters are now divorced. So gotta walk that fine line

Over all the years I've been hunting I could have answered that question in so many different ways. These days I kind of feel like the answer is subject to change every morning when the alarm goes off.

Well as a self employed small business owner it is difficult for me to take a week off at a time. That being said I specifically live where I do so I can spend 5-6 days a week in the woods before and after work. I'm also a lousy hunter I just spend enough time to be successful every once in a while.

4A has been on fire. Bulls are coming to calls, just have to find what they want. Some are coming to bugles with raking, and others to a cow call. Been a fun hunt.

Well, i’m not married yet, so i don’t have to worry about it. I spend at least 20 weekends a year gone doing something hunting related with a few 10-14 day hunts sprinkled in there. I don’t go in more than a day or so before the hunt, because that’s why i scout a lot. I generally go home when i tag out unless i know someone else with a tag. I would like to say i’m an 8-9.

Didnt mean to hi jack your thread...I was too lazy to start a new one.

I ask myself all the time how these guys who hunt every day for weeks straight every year do it. Not that we all wouldn't love to do it. But with a traditional job, kids, family etc. I just can't see how I could do it. So I do lots of long 3-4 day long weekends, go back to work for a few days, and then hit it again for 3-4 days. Sometimes I will stretch it to a week, but those are rare and on exceptional hunts. I am fortunate to get about 4 weeks of paid vacation time per year (lots of tenure at my job). But I can't be selfish and take all that time for myself. Even though my kids and wife enjoy the outdoors with me and most of our vacations are to the mountains, we still have to do family reunions, occasions theme parks, historical stuff, etc.

The new father of 3-week-old twins in fact donated his 7W tag to Heroes Rising Outdoors / Hunts for Heroes this morning. Good for him in supporting his wife in this new chapter in their lives! He did have Point Guard, so all is not lost. Thanks again for thinking of us, Troy! Your generosity will put an Arizona vet out there in the middle of bugling bulls in some awesome country ... FYI, 'tho this is last minute, if any one (experienced with archery elk hunting and/or Unit 7W) is free this Thurs afternoon - Sun/Mon (Sept. 20-24) and would like to be part of an amazing experience, give me a call ASAP! >>> (480)760-3868 I just returned from several elk camps near Flagstaff today. Two disabled Arizona vets were successful using their own crossbows over the weekend -- one tagged a cow (his first ever elk!), the other a nice branch-antlered bull. Yee Haw! --- Tom

In my prime I was a strapping 9. Now I'm a solid 5.....

Before Valley Fever I would say I was a solid 8, pushing up on 9. No tags this year and it’s probably for the best. Right now I’m sitting at a weak 4.

The scallops are fresh off the boat on Thursday 9/ 20. I dont think they get any fresher. I can get king crab if someone wants some

What kid doesnt like beer?

Tell your buddy if he lives down here to just pack it on ice and bring it to WGP down here man.... Jonathan is awesome.

Thank you all for your replies. I’m actually encouraged after reading these. I got my tag in the mail today. It’s been a LONG time coming. I grew up hunting coyotes, rabbits, dove, quail and deer in unit 21. I killed my first big game animal/mule deer on New River Mesa when I was 18. Bowhunted summer, fall and winter for years and prayed that someday AZGFD would offer a few December permits for mule deer after seeing so many great bucks during the winter season but never the October/November seasons. Now at 43, I have a tag that has my name, mule deer and December printed on it. While there are better hunts in AZ, the nostalgia of this just has a grip on me. Thanks again, M

No deer,elk or antelope. Just lots of party camps. The 68d is what cruising Central used to be.😫

When human remains are found it belongs to county sheriff, they will come out with a bone bag and collect evidence, take pics and such. Try to determine if it’s an illegal or an American. In both my cases we were able to find Mexican ID and all of their gears were in Spanish. Last time I called in the sheriff got stuck 3 times in his 2wd Chevy. We had a hard time finding him- he eventually had to call in search and rescue and get a ride to the body. He got lucky the 4x4 club was out there- all we had was a puny 500cc ranger!

Cry me a river, this is why I left this forum for a while. Bunch of whining cry babies always b*itching about something. For hells sake, just go hunting and have fun.

When you "scout" tanks that have dirt roads leading directly to them you kinda have to expect that some other lazyasses will also be "scouting" that area. I don't remember the last time I saw another person's trail camera in my area. Park the UTV & put some miles on your boots, I promise most of your hunting problems will melt away.

1. Responsible Agency: United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management 2. Type of Action: Administrative (X) Legislative ( ) 3. Document Status: Draft (X) Final ( ) 4. Abstract: This Draft Resource Management Plan (RMP) and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) describes and analyzes four alternatives for managing 55,990 surface acres on the San Pedro Riparian National Conservation Area (SPRNCA) in southeastern Arizona. The SPRNCA, located in Cochise County, is administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and includes approximately 47 miles of the San Pedro River. The BLM is the lead agency for the SPRNCA RMP/EIS with five cooperating agencies initially participating with the plan development: US Army Fort Huachuca; Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD); Arizona Department of Transportation (AZDOT); Cochise County; and City of Sierra Vista. In January 2018, AZDOT withdrew from the project. The plan alternatives are as follows: Alternative A, the “no action” alternative, which continues the management decisions of the Safford District RMP and San Pedro River Riparian Management Plan; Alternative B, which emphasizes opportunities for increased public access and livestock grazing over the entirety of the SPRNCA, while focusing on active resource management to mitigate impacts from increased use; Alternative C, the preferred alternative, which balances resource protection and public use by authorizing livestock grazing in areas compatible with the conservation values and providing a diverse mix of recreational opportunities, while utilizing active resource management to minimize impacts and for ecosystem restoration; and Alternative D, which emphasizes resource protection and conservation by eliminating livestock grazing and limiting recreational opportunities, while focusing on natural processes and passive resource management for restoration. Planning issues addressed are soil and water resources, wildland fire, visual resources, cultural resources, lands with wilderness characteristics, livestock grazing, recreation management, lands and realty, wildlife and fish, transportation management, and social and economic conditions. The draft alternatives also address designating areas of critical environmental concern and wild and scenic river suitability findings. 5. Review Period: The review period on the SPRNCA Draft RMP/EIS is 90 calendar days. The review period began when the Environmental Protection Agency published a Notice of Availability in the Federal Register. 6.
