This happened to me a couple year ago, except I was the guy driving behind the other. It was prelight on a long skinny road to get to the tank I planned to hunt but got stuck behind a duelly of all things at 4:30 in the morning. Well eventually he pulled over and he was planning to go to the exact same spot. I got his number and told him he could sit my blind. I went to plan B and saw 14 bucks before noon and shot a 6x6 muley. He saw one doe. Sometimes it pays to play nice boys and girls

I’ll donate a couple boxes of 20ga to your cause. Shawn

Forgive me, but I am going to play devils advocate. Are you sure he knew you were pulling over to talk, and didn't assume you were pulling over to let him pass. I've been on both ends of this many times, letting people pass who were clearly in a bigger hurry than I, and passed people who pulled to the side to let me get by. It seems to be a pretty common courtesy most do. Maybe he incorrectly assumed this is why you pulled over? Since you asked, If I were in your situation as describe, there is no chance I would have slowed (I actually would have sped up) or done anything to let someone get past me until I was safely at the spot. At that point you can correctly make the claim that you were the first there, and not just a guy driving down the road.

My plan is to post pics of every trip.

So the moral of the ethics story is to make sure you always pack your hunters safety cap for those situations where things are questionable We were elk hunting out at the tree farms in 3A many years ago! We pulled over to go put a stalk on a group of bulls that were buggered up on a slope that had a couple of cedar trees! right after we got out a truck pulled up behind us to ask what our plans were and we explained hoping to avoid interference. They proceeded to off road exactly in the direction we told them we were going to be working! About half an hour later we watch G$F come off the hill and give those dirtbags a citation, karma is real!!!

I would not have let them pass. If they want to tailgate you, they can eat the dust.

I'm first time Pronghorn hunter and have a General 19A tag Sept 2021. I've been scouting and road familiarity over the last two months when able to drive up the hill. Access is definitely challenging with this GMU! Would some experienced hunters be willing to share or confirm my newbie findings on finding success? I'm not concerned about P&Y score, as much as getting a respectable buck size and memories to last a lifetime. I'm excited and nervous over the potentially 36 less bucks to hunt (killed by archery and muzz) before my Sept hunt starts. While I've spoken to some land owners and AZGFD Warden about access to private land, it appears I'm either short on cash or late to the game for property privileges. So my hunt will be entirely on State Trust land and Prescott NF. I'm physically capable to hike in where most people won't.Yesterday I was glassing north Fain Ranch. Last week driving/observing Perkinsville Road from Chino to APS substation. Any help would be sincerely appreciated. Feel free to PM me. Thank you in advance!

Looking for Swarovski BTX and 95mm objective. Cash in hand

I FL size with the die set up correctly everytime.

Wide angle never helps the dinks I kill

IF I were going to stop to talk to him, I'd stop in the middle of the road, hop out out of the truck onto the road, and wave my arms while walking out in front off his SxS to make my intentions very clear that I wanted to talk and temporarily not give him a passing lane.

A few years back some young kid burned past me on a forest road in a side by side with what I later found out was drunk dad in the passenger seat. Thousands of dollars in hunting gear were bouncing out of a now broken harbor freight trailer. My son and I picked up what items we could find and I chased them down honking my horn a foot from the rear bumper. They could not hear or see me so I backed off and a few miles down the road here they come putt putting along back the other direction. I stopped them and gave his dad his bowcase full of gear. He said they lost a pack full of optics and other expensive gear somewhere along the 35 mile loop they were on that I hope he located. The tailgate from the trailer is still out there off the side of the road.

Too bad Lark ain't around to line us out on ethics

I don't have anything but a coyote tag this year but still, fall is right around the corner! Good luck to all you lucky tag holders!!!

That is pretty disrespectful!

Which rack are you looking at? 🤨

Yep, never would have let him around me. You gave him permission.

I wouldn’t of pulled over in the first place.

Looks like one of the extinct "Irish Elk".

Okay, Who's ready? Under two weeks until go time! I've been shooting almost every morning for two months, and shooting good groups out to 65 yds. (please baby Jesus help me not take a shot further than 65 yds.) Also, the "will I get a shot opportunity" nerves are setting in. I haven't had a chance to scout this year but I know the unit very good and have my plan A, B , C well at hand. I image its a swamp up there and I pray the rut is in full swing next cpl of weeks with young dumb bulls running around, cuz the first legal one inside 60 yards is a dead Elk . Good luck to you all!

Bump for great dogs .look at the one giving you the sad dog look you know you want to take him/her home .

Its a special thing to get to hunt with your dad or your kids.I didn't get that opportunity till about 10 yrs ago with my dad parents split up when I was real little and for over 20 yrs hadn't seen my dad.so it means a lot to me to get kids and there dads out hunting together.I have been able to help guide my dad to his first elk a 6x9 and his friend on his dream hunt for elk A few years ago .my dad is the one on the right .his buddy from Texas wanted to shoot a small one.now we get together and hunt somewhere every year!!
