We spotted a large group of Kaibab birds this morning heading up a ridge. My son (27) had the legs to hike up and cut them off dropping this young Tom with his Remington 1187 20 gauge loaded with 3”mag #4 steel. One down two to go! BTW it was about 28 degrees!

Brand new spotter never been used or molested in any way. I back ordered this awhile back and just received it. My wife is going through some health issues so it needs a new home. $2200 shipped to you or I can arrange a meet and greet in the valley.

Man, I was just having a conversation about the this. Only one trip around this sun, and that sunrise in that location will never happen again.. That’s the part that’s hard to explain to people who don’t hunt. . The stuff you see, hear, feel, that will never be again

Heading out after work tomorrow to scout for my son's jr hunt. If we glass up a buck like that opening morning we are dropping the hammer.

Every single day that I don't hunt, is an unsuccesful day!

Bought this bow from a member on here a few months ago as a back up bow for this years early bull hunt which was a success. I ended up using this bow to harvest a 5x5 bull at 16 yards. It performed flawlessly. It’s set at 30” D.L. And 70 lbs. has a black gold ascend sight, a QAD rest, Mathews 6 arrow quiver, bee stinger stabilizers, Plano plastic bow case, and ABB platinum series bow strings. Located in Globe. $700

Ravin R29 crossbow, perfect condition. Approx 440 FPS. Used on one hunt. New string and cables, Ravin sling, Ravin hard case, 13 Ravin bolts of which two have the lighted knocks. Also have a crossbow bag target and broadhead target. Shoots lights out!

We found this guy today. Would you shoot? I think I wouldn't.

I had fun this season. Although I never let an arrow loose on an elk, there were opportunities that just didn't pan out. Day 3 was perhaps the closest I came to cutting loose, but never got a clear shot. Letting this bull go on day 5 wasn't easy, but I wanted a much bigger amimal having taken larger ones. If it had been day 10 or later, probably different outcome... Bugling also wasn't near as prevalent as we'd hoped for either. There were days where it was also completely silent. The bull on day 3 was significantly larger btw too. Oh well, it was, as I said, a lot of fun!

Cleaning out the reloading room a little. Free Lee loadmaster. Comes with 45 acp shell plate, no dies. Functional except you have to manually index the shell plate rotator, really not that bad. It’s the red one in the picture. Located in Tucson

Free for a little guy that will use it. Works good, boys outgrew it. Must pickup at 83rd and Happy Valley. Andy 602-881-0610

Sorry to hear about your wife. I really like these sitters, wish I could buy it for myself. Good luck with sale!

Well some people walk right by nature and never see things like a wasp running around on the ground sniffing out a spider or see a Falcon jumping from branch trying to catch a Red Squirrel that is having a conniption fit.

I’ll take it if you don’t mind my boys just getting into it

Found

So this year I found out I had drawn a tag like everyone else after the 3rd round of card hits. I was already making plans for other things in September because no one I knew drew a tag. But come to find out, not only did I draw, but so did my work partner for the same hunt. So the planning began. Over the last 10 years I have done everything I could to help friends and family on their hunts and to learn as much I could. And it definitely paid off. Opening morning we were able to call in this dink for my buddy. At 25 yards he was able to knock the wind right out of him. He ran maybe 80 yards and piled up. That night we hiked his elk out and I went back in Saturday morning. I had several close calls, but couldn't seal the deal. One was my target bull that will probably haunt my dreams. I had him at 37 yards but couldn't get him to step out from behind a tree. He decided I wasn't sexy enough and returned to his cows and out of my life. Sunday morning came, and now I had 2 buddies to help. It was a fun day with several passes and almosts. One stand we had a small 6 come in, when a wolf about 200 yards behind us starts howling. That bull cleared the country. But I was going to pass on him anyways. Later that evening we set up on higher ground when an elk bugled below us. We gave a couple soft calls and he came in hot on a run. When he got to 22 yards I made my shot. He ran down hill where he took his final breaths. I had a lot of folks give me solid advice before this hunt and thanks to them we had an amazing time. I definitely would not have got it done without them.

We are on Range 2 and we are running the range for the service, no AZGFD/Ben Avery RSO's in sight.

If you still have the Steiners call or text me 520-831-3285

Glad you're OK. Two of theses pistols I have pictured are often out of battery., or timing. It's duets a weak finger spring in the .45 Peacemaker and a poorly fitted barrel wedge in the 1860 army. Cleaning day for the ol timey guns.

if nothing breaks and nobody gets hurt, thats a good hunt. if you have a goal to kill a huge bull and you hunt the whole time and dont kill youre more successful than someone that shoots a rag with a trophy tag. jmho

How do I measure success? Simply a freezer full of meat. What ever the good Lord gives me.

When you fill the coolers with meat, Then have a celebratory beverage.
