    Picked up 6 in 90 minutes yesterday after work. Missed some easy shots...practice makes perfect I guess. Been going to the same spots year over year....and this was the most amount of birds I've seen in a very long time. Should be a great year.

    Sounds like a bunch of people need to hit the range instead of the woods.

    She had a blessed year drawing an unlikely tag her first try and then getting to take this bull with one shot of the 7MM at about 45 yards in self defense as he was coming to trample us:) This was 10/3 at 4pm in the afternoon. We never could find any rutting action and never saw a cow in the two days we hunted. We just had moved sides of the unit to try an old area for the evening and had hiked into a secluded area. My daughter is a good hiker and we were just cold cow calling every couple hundred yards and this guy let out a very faint quick half-a-second groan/sigh really, like the very very end sound portion of a bugle, at maybe 100 yards or so, I'm sure from his bed. I was pretty sure it was an elk, but expected it to be a spike or something, but within a matter of seconds we saw him coming, we jumped down prone and got her all set up. She is really good at finding things in the scope but this time wasn't much of a challenge haha. My father dropped back to continue cow calling during this time, and the bull never really stopped coming so I had to eventually tell her to just shoot him before he got too close. He went down in about 10 seconds, and she was a very happy hunter!

    Decent mechanic in payson? Bwahahaha..... joking aside, try 260 auto in star Valley, coyote auto on Main Street, but payson tire and auto may be the only people open on Saturday, on aero drive.

    What's even more amazing is that he can even hold his head up. The antlers on my 61" Canada moose weighed 50+ lbs. and as you can see below, they weren't near as large as the one in the video. I'm guessing his are better than 80 lbs.

    Clearing off the bench. Sightron scopes don't typically have the name recognition that some of the other manufacturers do. They don't advertise much, but what they do - is make a great scope for the dollar invested. They are best known for the clarity of their glass and repeatability of their turrets. This scope has a 30mm tube and allows for 100 MOA of travel for elevation. The reticle has 2moa stadia. It is a rugged, well-built scope that always returns to zero after dial-up. Read the reviews and look at the customer ratings on the various sites that sell these scopes. The Mark 4 rings are fitted for a picatinny rail. Asking $650 for both the scope and rings; or $600 for just the scope. Not looking for trades at this time. Low-ballers: walk right on by. First "I'll take it" in this thread trumps all PM's. That way, everything is out in the open and nobody can snipe your deal later on. Karl 602-361-7191. Located in North Phx - near Tatum & Bell

    I’ve been browsing this forum for some time now, but have been hesitant to post because of reactions towards new guys asking for help. Figured it’s time to ask though. I’ll apologize in advance for the long post. Until last October I had never hunted in my life. A nice gentleman at Sportsmans Warehouse convinced me to go squirrel hunting in 6A, and I was bit by the hunting bug. I attempted to go do some predator hunting in 24A in the spring without any luck. I applied for the draw in unit 24A for white tail because it’s really the only area I’ve been in. I was drawn for the 11-6/11-12 hunt and I’ve been out “scouting” 5-6 times. I’d like to mention I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IM DOING! Obviously the northern part of 24A is still closed so I haven’t scouted that area, but I’ve scouted/glasses the Dripping Springs Mts, I’ve scouted Pinto Creek Road, I’ve scouted north of Timber Camp, and I’ve scoured the area between US60N and the reservation that’s still open. My hunt is in 20 days and I’m getting discouraged. I HAVE NOT SEEN A SINGLE DEER. What I am hoping for is that some experienced guys can give me some advice. Pretend as if I already have the gear (12x50’s, tripod, can shoot comfortably to 500y), but I have no idea where to start. I’ll try to post more detailed questions in the comments. Thank you for any advice given.

    Anyone getting prepped for the second round of fall bear hunts? I filled my tag this spring, but I’ll be heading up to help my wife and my buddy and his wife tag out. I’ve been fortunate enough to be a part of 3 bears so far this year, including my own. That number should be quite a bit higher, but we’ve had 23 misses on bears, all at moderate range and all from some sort of SOBPS (sudden onset bear Parkinson’s syndrome 🤣) Who’s got some 2020 dead bear pics? First bear of 2020 and Hanks first ever. Ancient sow that should age around the 20 year mark My 2020 bear and by far my biggest. A touch over 6’10” and the skull is just over 20” My clients boar from August right around the 6’ mark.

    I am heading up this weekend to do some elk scouting and taking the call. I would be happy with a bear or lion.

    FYI, the buck we are after is currently the ONLY buck we have found that we've been able to find again. Were 100% not trophy hunting!!!! Anything bigger than a spike is on the hit list! I'm only asking for help, because the deer are bedding before 7am. We need help locating a buck before they bed. I'll leave the "team hunting" comment alone!

    Please pray for a successful surgery and the answers to some pain questions. Unfortunately while working this hip up we learned it is about time the other is done so this 1 just has to work! I have done everything you could imagine to treat the thigh pain and weakness and now we have circled back to where it all started yet again my necrosis and hip replacements and nerve damage etc etc. I just wanna be able to play with my kids and bend down without agonizing pain in my leg. Honestly at this point I just don't care about hunting and hiking I just wanna be able to bend and play with my youngest child. Lord please guide the gifted hands of my surgeon and allow him to restore my leg to me. Please God heal my bones and relieve my pain and all that goes along with that. Please restore my body so my mind can focus more on You and your will for me. AMEN
