I need to work less and run more cameras. I only started taking pictures with my phone when photobucket started charging. Anyway my dad told me to "avoid even the appearance of evil" and since my intent was never to mislead I'll download and post the originals. I need a break is it fall yet.?

Those are very comparably with kaibabs but half the price. Someone who wants 15’s on a budget needs to hop on these

He needs to file a complaint with the Maker. Seems he got a brain and a penis but only enough blood to run one at a time.

I had been on a pretty good killing streak so I was trying for a giant. Ten minutes into hunting on January 1 I got well within twenty yards of this guy with enough time to judge him, put my bow down, get my camera out of my pack and take pictures. My streak ended that year

My body finally stopped hurting enough to type. Short story 27 days hunting two bull bison seen on the last day. Long story Checking my cc when I saw the spring cards getting hit. I saw the typical nothing, a week later for s&g I check my points and then I see I was drawn after a few cards were declined. I literally lose my breath for a moment. I immediately start googling everything, watch every video on youtube and post something about getting drawn and get some big time help from a couple of CWT members WHTMTNHNTR, Tom and Chewy. I spend the months talking, practicing with my bow and talking to the guys who previously had the hunt. After talking to about 20 previous hunters I discover a theme about the politics of the situation. 18 essentially said the same thing and two had glowing reviews of Jacoby. I decide not to play and go away from the group always being respectful to the group but doing my own thing. First weekend (5 days) I run into a giant wall of snow and that doesn't allow me to get much past Jakob Lake. I decide to try Saddle Mtn Wilderness. Saturday morning just before dawn I am just waking up I hear a clop of a bovine animal 30 yards from where I sleep, I grab my flashlight and see a smaller bison escaping up the hill next to my truck. Nothing interesting happened for the rest of the time except for stopping at Lee's Ferry for the first time and catching a few trout. Two weeks later I go for 3 days I get within 3 miles of the traditional area and see my first bison sign at some far off point. getting stuck and nearly getting in a fight with some californians that rented some pretty cool razors and were driving like they stole them was the highlight May 10th , nine days, My brother and step dad come and we stay at big springs cabins. Finally get to a marginal area stina point and timp point. Lots of sitting no bison. Me and my brother decide to look around a bit and meet some other hunters and discover the main guide does not like people on his trail cams. My brother took it as a personal challenge and the next camera he saw he started using his Fortnite Repertoire and did the "orange justice" than the "carlton" and finished off the day with a "Dab" We meet a couple of other hunters and they suggest the loser dance and I go retro with MC Hammers U cant touch this. Snow is still much to hunt anything but the three mile stretch that the majority of hunters are in, I do my best to stay away from them. Jacoby very likely has 80 salts with cameras so it is very hard to leave his grasp. The week ends drinking Bacanora with a couple of turkey hunters from Chihuahua and a retired game california game warden telling hunting stories and looking at successes on each others phones. It was a good evening. The final week I go solo (10 days). I head to the nameless point where we cut some fresh tracks and I left a salt and a camera. Nothing. I check the other eight cameras I left out there and nothing. I learn that the only thing I missed for the week was more snow. Total one Bison was seen for the all of the group of hunters and it was still deciding its gender. Sitting there thinking and watching the same piece of salt for a few days I decided if I am going to fail, I will fail the way I am best hunting. Thick cover stillhunting. I go to the deepest canyon I can find and find one of the super special areas that one of the paying clients is in. I leave shaking my head in frustration. Friday comes around and I hear three gunshots, for the first time its warm enough not to wear jacket. Later I learn, a gentlemen I met at Arizona Archery Club filled his tag deservedly. Saturday I hear four more shots but no reports of any more bison taken, first day without rain or snow. Last day, I am resound to the fact I will not fill my tag and tell my wife I am leaving around noon. the voices in my head are telling me to go by the park entrance which I do. (you will hear voices in your head too if when you go ten days solo) I wake early and pass the groups meeting place an hour before there scheduled meeting time. I get to dirt tank 1 about the time the remaining hunters are getting to their group session and for the first time in the morning I leave my bow in the truck (packed to go home) and take my WW2 model 70 instead. I work my way to the southeast corner of the small field and then I see a brown head pop up and ram another brown head. For a second I think I am watching a couple of bears fighting, then I realize they are not bears. The fight is going on for several seconds as I am just realizing what I am watching. All of the videos and studying is kicking in and I start figuring out if they are male or female. The vitals are out of sight but there eyes and horns have me pinned. I drop to my stomach and crawl to a flatter area. they stop fighting and it looks they are going to leave when they turn and head to the flat part of the field. The closest bull is about 60 yards and the farther one is about 80. after 27 days i no longer care about which one is bigger and am waiting to see the penis sheath to confirm sex and a broadside shot. the one at 80 obliges. I place the crosshair on his heart and squeeze. He buckles and starts jogging I place two more shots in the lungs in a few seconds. the bull stops and place my last shot and last bullet for that matter in him and he drops and is down within 45 seconds of my first shot. This is where the pain begins I get my truck 248 yards from the bison on snowy road. I take pictures and take my pack. I start about 545 and put the last piece in my truck around 300. It was the second and final bison taken out of 25 tags. This is also my eighth big game species of the big 10 all of them solo, seven with my bow.

Since that other .280 went fairly quick, let's try this one. Remington 700 Mountain Rifle in .280 Rem. 22 inch barrel. I bought this gun used, so the round count is unknown. I have around 60-70 rounds down the tube, bedded, trigger job. Disclaimer- this gun shoots lights out the first two shots, they are often touching, but with the pencil thin barrel, the third shot usually opens up. The gun is near perfect other than the foreend tip. The group pictured is the best 3 shot group that I was able to get. Comes with Talley rings. 700.00 FTF.

I'm no help, because they all sound good to me! I like Democrate Destroyer, but that's probably not a great pest control name:) Maybe Border Brothers pest control.

I'm not very creative but I want to wish you the best on the endeavor! Get it man!

Mine the one on the left. Just one

Two ( I think) different bucks, different years, same place. This was literally the second deer of the trip, about 15 minutes into the hunt. Heavy 2 point with some cool stuff going on. Really regret not taking the shot.

I try to not pass anything during the hunt, that I would shoot in the last minutes of the last day of the hunt. So far no regrets.

Waited 10 yrs to draw a archery tag in Utah. Got the tag and passed on two really good bucks the first four days of 11 day hunt. Never had another opportunity at either on of them Kick myself everyday for that decision. But at least I had a chance to shoot a whopper just choked bad. Think I did everything wrong, jerk the trigger, drop arm, didn’t aim small, heck think I even closed my eyes. Yeah he was big.

I've only ever had one Kaibab tag and on opening morning a very tall 4x4 was running across a bowl at about 60 yards. I passed wanting one that was wider or a non-typical and as it turned out he was the only shooter I saw. Don't really regret it though but would have liked to see how wide he actually was.

Looking back on nearly every archery deer season I regret not taking shots on at least one deer. The issue I have is if I kill one then I am done hunting for the year. I know, dumb reason for passing on a decent buck. The exception is a late December buck but even then I pass on most bucks. I don't have the desire to kill a deer just to kill one. I have passed on some small bulls in hopes of finding a bigger bull. I usually eat tag soup and always have regrets. Elk tags don't come along that often.

Yeah when I was 16 early archery bull. 2 bulls together, one was typical with huge fronts the other was huge 7 on one side like a 400 type and the other side was just a club. I shot the typical. Fml

My rule that I pass on to my kids is to never regret a shot that you did not take. There was a reason you did not take that shot and if you had, it may have led to bad results. Never regret a shot you did not take.

I say that Yotebuster is RIGHT ON, WHY DO I SAY THIS= 50 rears OF MEASURING BIG BULLS! My 7 x 7 (huge AZ Bull ) IS , 60' MB, 69'MASS, SPREAD INS. 51' & LANCE TINES 24' ! And no broken tines. That' s a basic idea of what, a 400 bull -looks like.

320 max when done

From the pics I would guess. 310-320. Either way nice bull and I would have a hard time giving him a pass.

I used to do a lot of hunting in 1 & 27 and came across a number of old log cabins over the years. I wondered what life was like for those who had lived in them. Thanks for sharing the photos.

Always fun to find things out about the old timers, really cool pictures. It always seems like those black and white pictures just make it look so dang tough.....which it was!

Posted by Jay ScottScouting in the Arizona deserts for bighorn sheep is one of my favorite things to do. It seems that with each passing day the anticipation of the hunt becomes more exciting. Good Huntin' to those with a Arizona sheep tag in their pocket. A new edition to my gear is the Schnee's Granite Boots (see pic below) so far I absolutely love the boots. I will provide a full report once I have put them through the test over the next couple of months of sheep and coues deer hunts. But so far they provide incredible support and stability while crawling in the rocks of sheep country. View the full article
