If you read about Arizona's earliest history when they were first trying to discover routes across state and follow rivers, they write about encountering wild cattle. This was especially true in south east Arizona. Supposedly early Spanish settlers abandoned them when they left due to hostile conditions mostly related to Indian encounters. They write about how dangerous the wild cattle were and would attack men and horse, often killing them. Arizona has a serious feral donkey and feral horse problems. They say a feral horse/donkey population doubles every 4-6 year if gone unchecked. Somebody in a position of leadership needs to grow a pair and deal with it but they are all afraid of the woke blind fools.

It's time again for the annual joint fundraising banquet with the state's two largest bowhunting organizations, the Arizona Bowhunters Association and the Bowhunting in Arizona record book program. The banquet will be held Saturday, March 18 at the Holiday Inn and Suites located at the I-60 (Superstition Frwy) and Country Club Drive in Mesa. Hope to see you there! ABA Banquet Registration

True story: LONG time ago my older bro was waiting tables at the Westward Look while in college, and some customer from back east asked him what a chimichanga was. Brother responded that it was a "fried burro". Customer asks with a surprised look; 'You guys eat those things out here???'! S. #burronotburrito

Midway is selling the Redding t7 new for 349.99. Would you take 275$ ?

do mini heelers get? 11-15 inches Mini Blue Heelers stand at 11-15 inches and weigh only 12-25 pounds. Standard Heelers are about double the size at 17-20 inches and 35-50 pounds.Jul 11, 2022

So, what defines a “mini” healer? I’ve got a male we got from the shelter, whose a bit smaller than my neighbors, weighs in around 37 lbs depending on hair loss for the day.

Typically I only do precision reloading for long range stuff. I will probably stick with getting a single stage. (When I said turret press I was thinking more along the lines of the Lyman) Am going to pass on the Hornady. thanks anyways for the prompt reply 👍🏾

I don't recall off the top of my head how long the waiver lasts, but there is still a waiver beyond the original 90 day requirement to complete the field days for online students. The demand is extremely high, while we just don't have enough instructors to put them on. I know we'll ramp up online field days in Flagstaff once the snow melts and it warms up. Keep checking the website or keep in touch with me if you need anything. I probably owe you a favor or two by now!

I've had horse steak before, it was amazing! Really tasted like beef.

Bolings Garage is first rate. They are a very old school father/ son team. Hours are from 5a-4p M-W and 5-noon Th. Cannot recommend them more Speedway/ Alvernon

Monsoon automotive is/used to be owned by a member her. Very nice guy. They are off tanque verde and grant.

We've had a good experience at Integrity on Ina, but limited experience. We used to go to Douglas a lot and had mixed experiences. We got newer vehicles and stopped going after one particularly bad job.

I burro meat good in burritos?

https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona-environment/2020/12/09/feds-start-cattle-roundup-verde-river-amid-environmental-complaints/6486299002/ We had that issue here too! Had a buddy that helped out years ago, he reported they were extra wily and would hold up in the steep, thick stuff requiring dogs to chase them out. They managed to push out the few that cooperated but left plenty behind. I would imagine that strengthens the renegade bloodline in the subsequent generations. I would rather have them on my dinner plate than being picked apart by buzzards. Unfortunately, the reality of a wild cow round up is not as easy as one might think. Still, would be one heck of an experience.

I sent a cow elk to Moyle and was happy with the results

You get an extra bonus point if you wait til Friday

If you don't know by now you never deserved to know in the first place.. .

My son is in the middle of his first year of big game hunting. We were going to try to get him onto some pigs and have him take the first shot. Friday morning, the first spot didnt produce anything but deer and cattle. We changed locations and caught some pigs moving into a cut out of the wind. We made a big circle and found the pigs bedded down for the afternoon. We snuck into 45 yards and started our waiting game. No shots due to the pig pile. Shortly after 3 pigs came to our left, we had no clue they were there and got busted. All the pigs scattered, my son located a lone pig and took him down. Turns out it was a pretty tiny one 😂. All jokes aside, he was proud of his first muzzleloader harvest. Saturday we spent the day chasing pigs but kept getting busted or they would disappear as we got closer. The winds kept the pigs down low and out of sight. Sunday morning at 9, a herd was located far out in rough country. My pops is unable to do those kind of hikes these days so my son and I took off. We were able to get to 124 yards and take this older boar down and had a brutal pack out. We'll head out next week to hopefully locate pigs in a spot that my pops can hike in.

Not sure how you would not be in compliance with AZ. SBR's are legal to own here. That being said, I wouldn't take part in the amnesty scam they have going on. Admitting guilt for something that was not not previously illegal seems fishy. If I did own any pistols with a brace I would go back to the goofy pistol buffer tube and submit the paperwork the old way and pay the $200. I don't think it will come to that. They already shot down Trumps bump stock ban. This won't fly either.

It’s a deer.

I'm told it is a cous double beam 5x3. And speculation that is was a lion kill. I don't know, there were no other bones in the immediate area. For now I think I will keep it and clean it up. Pretty unique talking piece. Thanks all for your comments and interest.

Not much to write, other than I sat on my glassing nob this morning, wondering why I even came hunting with this nasty winter storm on top of me. Windy, cold, and rainy. About 20 min into glassing I heard rocks crashing underneath me and this buck was running around the nob looking for a doe 100 yards beneath me. I went down the hill and to my surprise the buck was still there coming out of the cut he had no idea I was even there and gave me a 40 yard shot.I made a great shot and he expired within 40 yards. Being in the right place at the right time was the truth this morning and luck was on my side. I have never had a buck run up on me like that when I am glassing but I guess anything is possible during the rut!

How can a SxS be left-handed?

You need to keep in mind that we are spoiled here in AZ. Most people in the country would love to kill a 300" elk. There is a reason why the Pope and Young minimum is 260". 99% of hunters will never even get that. I get your point though, we do live in AZ so we can set our goals higher. Achieving them is another thing, especially with a bow. Nothing wrong with a 300" 6 x 6.
