A Rocky antelope? I miss out on everything! 😂

Was out this morning down south and every buck I saw was hot on a doe. Watched a 100+ buck mount a doe this morning

The rut in 24a was not awesome. Only saw this baby buck The rut down south was awesome Brother got this today

So I sold something on here and I would like to donate some of the proceeds to CWT.

After locating 3 bucks over 100 while helping a friend on a November hunt, we began this December tag with high hopes. We went down the opening weekend; Saturday and Sunday only due to school. We glassed 6-10 bucks per day, but nothing my 16 year old son wanted to take. He was fortunate enough to harvest a 200 plus inch (gross) mule deer last year and really wanted a 100 inch Coues. As the second weekend approached I was planning our trip down South, and he informed me that he did not want to hunt because he did not want to disappoint the guys at 'work". He volunteers at our Church, and with a million services for Christmas they could not get through without his help. We went back down the day after Christmas with the intention of staying until New Years. The first morning back was good. glassed several bucks in that 80 ish low 90 range. He asking is it over 100 Dad? "Nope". we met up with my best buddy around 3 and decided to go back to a different spot I have not glassed in a long time. 4 of us looking at one look and a friend of mine from work had to be "that guy" and walk a 1/4 mile to look at it from a different angle. He is new to hunting and called on the radio and said, "I have a buck that is big". I walked to his location and after some piss poor communication located the buck. At first glance I said "no, I don't think he is over mid 90's". After some coxing from a couple of buddies, and as the sun was getting low, he and I decided to have a closer look. We closed the distance from 1600 yards to 351. I relocated the buck making a half hazard attempt to birddog does, I said "bud, I still don't think he breaks 100, but look at him and if you want him take him. One well placed shot off shooting sticks with his 6.5 cm $400 cheap rifle, the buck was down. It started to rain and snow on us, but the pack out was awesome. After measuring this buck several times he is 101 and 4/8. Mission accomplished. Thanks for reading Whitey

Grizzly G0602. Im located in flagstaff, cash only and I won’t be shipping this one. I will help you load it.

It’s been a roller coaster weather wise in Southern Arizona, snow, fog, ice cold wind, 14 degree mornings. Manage to harvest on the 3rd stalk at 11 yards. While stalking they decided it was nap time, all 15 pigs huddled up under a mesquite. We sat back and relaxed 80 yards away til they got up and moving again.

So I finally picked up an M1A SOCOM. I want to install a Sage EBR stock on it. Has anyone here done it? Is it worth it as far as accuracy and options for mounting scopes, bipods, etc? I may just throw on an Aimpoint up front and call it good.

Very well cared for, garage kept and in excellent condition. No modifications except for half tinted windshield and cube lights. 6’3” tall and 9’ long. Fit in the toy hauler perfectly. This is the 5 seater. Has 4 drive modes, power steering and auto adjusting suspension. All recalls and updates done by the dealer. Has about 1 1/2 year of extended warranty left. Machine has 1127 miles on it. Not sure why pics are sideways. Can send more if requested. I’m in Apache junction. Asking 13,800. 602-568-4845

If my luck holds I’ll have 21 points soon!

Price wasn’t there when first posted cause I was going to bid $500.00. but we still have no idea what year it is?

My old man is up to 27 now and we aren’t expecting him to draw this year.

Same buck. I'm headed down this weekend for this one's big brother. We played tag a couple of Saturdays ago.

Does it come fully stocked with Pittsburgh Tools? 😄

Good response. Snowflake culture has crept into everything. People are just waiting to be offended.

ha ha sorry it was late at night after i'd had a few to drink and i thought i was in the sheep section

I would take my hat off but it would blind the internet

It’s not a huge lost. I don’t listen to his podcast . And I’ve only seen a few episodes of meat eater. Most pro hunters rub me the wrong way...case in point

Glad to hear his response that he still maintains control and wont let the big money backers steer the content. The initial reports had me concerned. I stand corrected.

Well, I made it down to hunt AZ. My original plans changed a bit because my wife flew in on day 7 to hang out and ride back with me. I ended up hunting unit 27 the entire 5.5 days I hunted. It was a good time and I feel I gained a lot of experience. I found 9 muley bucks, 7 forks and 2 three pointers. Three of the bucks were alone, but the rest were chasing does. I saw plenty of hunters, but not a single one on foot. Everyone was in a vehicle or atv. Maybe I am doing it wrong, but I just don't understand how you archery road hunt. The terrain wasn't too bad after I figured out how to navigate around without having to cross too many canyons. A few 200-300 feet canyons a day was enough though. Far and away the worst part were the hillsides or ridges that were completely covered in rocks that size from baseball to bowling ball with grass growing between them. It was slow going, and I felt like I was going twist an ankle at any time. I spiked out for a few days and was able to find water. I really enjoyed these days. It was rainy all day one of them and that was the day I spotted the most deer. I tried to make a stalk on a buck bedded away from the others, but the wind was in the exact wrong direction from the way I needed to approach so I backed out. The highlight of the trip was my last morning hunting. I was glassing for deer at 8 am. I happened to be out of the binos when something caught my eye. I saw 3 tails bobbing down the hill beside me 200 yards away (later ranged the tree they walked by). Mountain lions! It was awesome! I first thought a mother with 2 cubs, but all three looked very similar in size. Not sure what the dynamic was, 3 grown siblings? They walked by in about 20 seconds into a drain and I couldn't find them again. I met a couple young hunters that were very nice, and also met a lion hunter on the road with dogs and a horse loaded up, that I talked to for quite a while, cool guy. Something a bit weird also happened. I left my base camp tipi tent set up by road with my vehicle while I spiked out. On my second night out I get a text on my inreach at 1030 pm ftom my wife saying the cop is at our house because AZ g and f contacted him. That was not good. Turns out the wind came up and 2 of the stakes pulled free were the ground was very loose and my tipi fell. Never would have thought as I have had the thing in some wicked winds and it held fine. The local ranch manager noticed I hadn't been at camp for a few days and called it in. Can't fault her for that, it was nice that people are looking out. I talked to her when I got back to camp and she was very nice. All the money I have paid for inreach was worth it to let my wife know I was fine after the cop showed up at oir door to deliver bad news. All in all it was a great time. I hope to be back someday, but don't know if I can burn 40 hours of vacation and drive 3500 miles every year.

Eduardo will even let you drive the boat!

First triggerfish of the day.

I'll risk going against the conventional wisdom, and advise that it is mostly a bad idea - at least the first two years. How serious is he about academics? Was he in GATE or mostly AP in H.S.? Will he be taking a heavy load of math and science? My recommendation would be for him to be dead serious in getting the core classes out of the way. Bonehead English used to wash out a lot of kids - it can require more mental effort than you would think. If he gets a job after two years, my advice would be some sort of work study or one of the labs at the school, associated with his major. It won't pay as much, but the hours will be more user friendly and he will have the advantage of networking with professors and upper level students, and may get his name on some publications as a co-author. When I went there, before I switched to U of A, the student body was only 12k, but the academic standards were relatively high. Ditto competition for grades. Undergrad. professors were all excellent, but demanded a LOT. There are enough temptations at NAU that can derail the best of intentions if he isn't careful. Best of luck. forepaw

Congratulations! I thought I had #17 for me last Saturday but he went in a hole and I couldn't recover him.
