I killed this buck with my 4 year old son by my side during the opening morning of the general rifle hunt. We were late getting out of the cabin by about an hour but it all worked out. As we were working our way to our glassing spot we found this guy hanging out near the road. Having my son with me during this hunt was by far my best experience in the field.

I agree. Ever sense a couple of the old guys left and its just kids running the place the place has gone downhill for sure

They are pretty special, even when they become adults.

I felt the same exact way, when you ask a question and they make you feel dumb for asking or give you a 2 word answer

Just people with sense 😂

I’ve packed an Outdoorsman tripod around all over the place for like 22 years and it still works like it did when new. They build a solid product and I don’t think they’ll have any problem selling them

Made in USA boys.

They could be trying to compete with RRS as a premier shooting tripod with a hunter friendly center column for glassing. If it is rock solid, durable, and light, they have a market.

A straight yucca stalk for a walking stick with a rubber crutch pad on the bottom. Sure helps since I'm not a pup anymore.

October hunt, my wife and pops were able to tag out on a pair of decent bucks. Little more hunting pressure this year than usual and had to hike in a bit farther to locate the bucks. Nov hunt, my buddy smoked this great buck that did a head dive into some boulders, we were able to recover the broken tine and had a cool, long pack out in the dark. Junior hunt- my son had his first big game tag for deer and javelina. He had an away basketball game in Nogales, after his game I picked him up and we were off to camp. We completed 9 failed stalks on Friday-Sunday and was finally able to get within range of this buck. After some careful shooting and assistance from my dad and Christian who were spotting from the distance, we were able to knock him down. That evening we decided to go out look for javelina (haven't seen any yet). At last light, Christian glassed up a herd far out. We made plans for the morning and they were up and feeding in the grey light. A short stalk later he was able to put his first javelina down. Thanksgiving hunt- my buddy and I found a whole bunch of deer, a lot of tiny ones. Finally Sunday morning we located his buck way up in the mountains. A gruesome hike up a steep ridge, he was able to dump 2 rounds into the chest. I'm glad that pack out was all down hill and in the flats.

Got a chance to hunt the southern portion of the state this year for the second season. Such a beautiful area. Opening morning was awesome at a mere 28 degrees. Pulled into camp and started glassing from there. TONS of deer up on their feet until late morning. Only saw a few smaller bucks and not looking for a meat hunt yet as we had until Tuesday night before we had to pull out. Met up with some friends midday and headed back to a spot I had been eyeballing on Google Earth. Started picking up a few deer with one being a mid sized buck. Too far and too small for day one. Moved the glass to the North and picked this guy up at about 1,000 yards. I usually try to keep all my shots to 350 yards or less. I just don’t practice enough to do otherwise. There really weren't any good vantage points for a shot except for the small rise right in front of the ridge he was on that I ranged to be about 200 yards from him and getting there I was going to be in the wide open for the first ½ of the stock. I decided it was worth a shot. Down the hill and into the wash to the right trying to use what little cover I had until I could get behind the rise. My buddies stayed up top and let me know he was still there and feeding out into the open. I used the small hill to stay concealed and finished the stock with a 40 yard belly crawl just far enough to where my barrel would clear the brush and I had a good sight line to the buck. Almost like he knew I was coming he turns dead broadside in a wide open spot. I ranged him at 195 yds. “Click” goes the safety and he lifts his head startled at the noise. I couldn’t believe he actually heard that from there. Still broadside I centered the shot and “BOOM - - SHWACK”...... Buck Down! Great hunt with great friends. Need help with sideways pics.

Great character on that buck, congrats. Thank you for staying within your own range of comfort and not just “letting it fly” because the stock was far and hard. Makes for a better story also.

Here’s some video I’ve gotten of cats in Southern AZ.

These pics were taken an hour from the valley. Got pics of the lion coming 2 out 3 nights at almost the exact same time....Must be a local to the water hole. The dates are wrong on the pics, I'm going after this Tom. Is it just me or is that one massive cat?!

Cool pics from everyone, thanks for sharing. DAN

Lion Getting a drink late at night.

I got these looking for the "BIG ONE" coues that is!

First time I ever put out a trail cam I got this, Don't know much about them but I have seen about 10 lions already never had a shot tho! hopefully one day. Do you think this would be a male or female?

From the sweet spot

I got this video this past spring

Here are a few recent ones.........

I've been after a particular lion for the last couple of years. Here is the best of about a dozen pics I have of it.
