    Colby had 3 bps going into this draw and drew tag #1 for his multi unit hunt. This week we double checked the rifle and shooting strategies and started putting gear together. I let him choose where he wanted to start opening day, he picked the farthest unit and the farthest part away from home. This morning we left the house, made a lucky superstitious stop at a gas station for his doughnuts and hit the road. When we got to the first glassing spot, we couldn’t see crap. The fog was pretty good this morning. We spent 45 minutes watching funny videos and listening to music while the sun killed the fog. We glassed for an hour, didn’t see any pigs moving but coues were in full rut. We moved to our second glassing spot. After a while we got lucky and spotted pigs below us 300 yards away feeding in the oaks. We grabbed our gear and when we got to 220 yards, Colby said he can make the shot. I’d like him to get 150 or so but he was confident. We got the rifle set up and he got on the larger boar right away. After a few practice squeezes he felt ready and let the rifle bark. The pig hit the ground hard on the quartering to shot (messy gutting job). This boar had some age and stink to him. We took our time, cleaned the pig and took pictures. We picked up some roadside burritos and hit the road on the way home.

    My dad passed away in July and this was my first outing since his passing. He and I started hunting together in the late 1970s. Like most of us, our dad’s taught us the skills needed to be successful, the appreciation for everything we harvest and how to take care of the meat from field to table. In his memory I used his favorite rifle and I was able to hunt our favorite unit. Over the years, we have harvested many deer, bulls and cows from this unit. I am thankful to have had a successful hunt and relive over 40 years of memories.

    Excellent condition, chambered in 223 w/original box and manual. Comes with Burris Black Diamond 6-24 w/fine duplex and leupold rings. I'll remove the YHM adapter and install a thread protector. Barrel shortened to 20", interior looks great with no visible wear. $1000 firm, pick up in South Chandler

    both 23s and 23n have milder terrain, and steeper terrain. the elk will be where they will be, however. in the peak rut, I've seen monster elk in milder terrain on both sides of the line, but there's no guarantees.

    No way I could part with one of my labs if I’d had him for ten years….Id get rid of my other dogs first. Looks like he’s just getting old and cranky like a lot of us. Pics,of my old guy pushing 14, and his psycho side kick cattle dog that’s under my recliner..

    20 years ago my daughter drew 5B antelope tag #1 when there were only 5 tags issued. She was 10 years old and only had her hunter safety point. My baby girl turns 30 next week.

    Old buck. Teeth were worn down almost to the gums. Patience paid off. Past on 5 other bucks before he came to the scrape I was sitting on. Not my best buck to dated but I thought you might enjoy seeing him.

    Guessing you’re a Ford owner? 10% + higher cost and they use every opp to deny warranty liability. IE Death Wobble for starters. Ford shafted me on two diesels under warranty , I’ll walk before I buy one again. Ram has taken care of every issue I’ve had. In case you didn’t read it slowly, the issue is Cummins, not Ram, btw.

You can certainly draw this year. A few tags with 24BP made it into the bonus pass last year. These are all odds for 2023 on gohunt

    Opening day took us a while to find some pigs. We spent most of the morning looking over deer, the muleys were rutting while the coues were not. The first two herds we spotted were no where to be found when we got to where we last saw them. We regrouped after the two failed stalks and hit the spotter for long range glassing. It didn't take long til we spotted a third herd. The third herd stayed around long enough for my 72 year old pops to get within range. His shot was 27 yards and the sow didn't go too far.

    Sorry for loss! Love that you used his rifle for the hunt! Congrats. My Dad passed the end of May. Didn’t get drawn for anything to pay tribute this year. Maybe next year. My Dads favorite rifle is a twin to your Dads!

    Sorry about your loss. But I can't think of a better way to honor his memory. Congrats on a successful hunt.
