    Pretty judgey of you. The crossbow permit was put in place for people with an 85% disability in their ability to shoot a bow by AZGF. So, anyone who can’t shoot a bow anymore should just have to give up the September hunts? All OTC opportunities as well? Disabled vets included? I had three shoulder surgeries for various injuries, I guess I faked them all. Had more than few months I couldn’t have cast a fishing rod, much less fought a fish. If I finally draw another antelope tag when my grandson is old enough to hunt and choose to transfer the tag to him while I’m alive, and able to share the excitement of a new hunter getting to hunt an animal that would take him possibly into his 40s to draw on his own makes me guilty of “abusing” the system, I’ll abuse it. you left out the CHAMP permit group, I guess the mobility impaired are abusing it as well. If you can’t walk , stay home! Enjoy your view from up there on your soapbox.

    The "System" has been getting abused for decades. Parents and grandparents who never intend to hunt putting in just to accumulate points then turning over the tag to a kid. People feigning injuries so they can get a crossbow permit. If you can't pull a bow back anymore then rifle hunt or take up fishing.

    Im selling my Winchester Big Bore 94 XTR .375. Excellent condition for a 45 year old rifle. Includes a box of ammunition, with 17 live rounds and 3 fired cases. I live in Tucson. $1200 reduced $1100 picked up at my home. I can ship to your FFL at actual cost. Feel free to contact me by PM or text me at 520-975-0830 and we can discuss any questions you might have. This will make an excellent Elk or bear rifle. I had purchased this to shoot my cow elk but ended up using my Winchester 50-110. Need to pass along rifles I no longer shoot.

    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.

    This bobcat and I have had 3 years of cat and mouse. I spotted him yesterday at 60 yards. I took a couple photos with my camera that I carry with me on a tripod while hunting, thinking I had a slim chance at even getting a shot with my bow so might as well get some pictures. To my surprise, he obviously noticed me too but instead of running off like he did in previous run ins, he instead walked towards me and sat down at 55 yards. I drew back and centered between my 50 and 60 yard pins and I center punched his chest. He didn’t move an inch. He’s a beauty of a bobcat and am looking forward to having him mounted.

    Correct. if you can’t shoot a bow, don’t apply for bow hunts. Nobody is entitled to rut hunts

    Fourm needs some hunting content so I thought I'd post my January archery buck. Opener I missed him in his bed at 58 after a crawl. Arrow deflected on a piece of grass in front of him that I didn't see. Clean miss. Next AM before light an epic battle occurred below me. Couldn't wait to see what they were. The guy I missed the previous day got whooped and was being escorted out of the area. He bedded on the top of small ridge. Guy who kicked his butt was a big old guy with crabs all around. He got a pass. Solo stalks are fun with no spotter but I had a hunch he'd stay for a bit after his whooping. I started crawling up the slope stalking the bush he laid under. Stalk took 2 hours to get to 30. I got to 30 from the bush and no deer or sight of him. Figured he'd left but I've been burned before thinking I was done. So I stood up slowly and still nothing visible. Crept up standing. At 22 yards a big rack was now visible from a bedded deer. I couldn't see him as his face was in the dirt. I only saw him after he woke. So he's at 22 yards bedded, doesn't know I'm there. No play. He's gonna have to stand and walk left or right three yards for a window. 4 hours later after I watched nothing but his rack move, and listening to him groom himself, he stood, stretched, and started feeding. Shot was 28 yards. He went about 150 and bedded. Found him dead in his bed an hour later. Sorry for crappy photos. He's only 17+" inside but he's tall and forky and heavy and scores well.

    Here is the real problem......this is what I drove for 20 years, then I bought a used F150turbo and it was just great until Ford couldn't figure out why it was overheating, I traded it in for a Ram 1500 Bighorn that does a great job pulling my 25' travel trailer but heading into retirement here next year I want to get set up for the possibility of a 5th wheel option to pull horses and a bigger camp trailer. I remember shopping after that 79 Ford of mine......I had no idea what I was looking at and there was no such thing as a stripped down model with just a manual window crank

    Not exactly answering your question but he could draw a 23 late rifle bull tag and have a chance at a giant. Not always a fun hunt and some rough country though. If he just wants to chase bugling bulls and doesn't care a ton about size 4b would be a good choice. I'd avoid unit 1 as it's been severely overhunted. 27 similar to unit 1 in regards to being overhunted.

    Any WTB offer shipped from a new member is a scam. Only do WTB face to face, unless it's from a well established member here. Kent

    Buddy sat his bow down to load the tuck on sycamore creek in 22. Drive off without it. Long shot I know as most guys there ride. Giving it a shot anyways.
