Because of work issues I could only hunt today. (Tucson engineers should never leave Pima county) got a moderately time start getting to my parking spot a little after first light. A mile walk in and twenty minutes after setting I spot a herd. Make the perfect stalk get to 15 yards but couldn't tell which end to shot at. I spooked the herd and took some random shots at the closest (10 or 12) no blood
Midday saw a herd driving to a water hole. 4 more misses. Quick readjustment of my sight at the waterhole.
Evening worked the flats and a couple few mile walk. Decided to leave a little early than a quarter mile into the way back a large group breaks cover. I hope out walk the arroyo a bit and shoot the first one over 10 pounds.
I once ran into a guy in the wilderness area in 32. He had driven down from Wyoming and backpacked in for his first coues deer hunt. Opening morning he had glassed up a nice buck and when he went to load his .243AI he realized he had grabbed his .270 ammo pouch by mistake when he left home. His luck turned around when he ran into me as I was packing out my deer. I had 10rds of .243AI that I wasn't going to use. He killed a buck the next day.
It was cold with wind chill in the mid 20’s opening morning. Saw nothing but deer and coyotes. We had to walk around to check out small cuts out of the wind. We found just 2 pigs feeding and were able to double up at 52 yards. We stayed around for another day and found a couple more herds for next year’s HAM trip.
It was with a 260 gr accubond. He stumbled and went about 5 feet. It's a round that has taken elephant so I knew it was way overkill for javelina but I still wanted to give it a try. And a plus was the bullet skinned half the javi for me.

That 14 footer has a lot of potential. Thats what my 16 footer looked like when I bought it in 89. Some sanding, shot it with zink oxide and painted it. I decked it out and still have it in the garage and use it for trout fishing up north. Back then that was the only boat I had so I took it to every lake. I'll see if I have a picture of it.
Good boat.
Better idea. Keep people from moving here and buying tags and don't offer non resident hunts. No putting in for your brother's girlsfriends aunt to transfer tags.
this is one of the most ridiculous statements i’ve read. Would you rather have a good shot at killing a big animal once in your lifetime or a reasonable chance at killing a big animal every several years? Quality is down across the state but it is still there. You’ve just got to hunt a little harder now.
I was getting my steps in last Saturday and stumbled on the farmers market in downtown Mesa. Was a dude selling seasonings, southwestern grillers I think it was called. Bought one for chicken, used it on the calamari. Good af. No sugar in this particular seasoning.
Years ago, Craig Boddington wrote an article in Petersen's Hunting proclaiming the 110 as the most accurate rifle right out of the box. When we hunted pronghorns together on the HulapaiI Res. years later I asked him if he still felt the same about it. He replied with a definitive "yes." That was a couple decades back, so I don't know if it still applies.
Good luck with the sale.
