Shot on November 5, 2025 in rifle season on public land. First mule deer for me.

Hadn’t seen much rut activity this Jan until a week ago. After a few days of rain I found 14 bucks all w does. Too many deer on the Mnt to even get in there and hunt one of them. Came back a week later and saw a buck stand up at 8Am w 3 does. Range was 1500 yards. Got the spotter out to check the details. 3x3=go time. Made a plan to get half way and try to relocate. From that spot I couldn’t see into the cut he was working down. I glassed one of his does and decided to close the distance to see if I would be able to see into that cut and maybe make a play. Got to the skyline of that cut with perfect wind and some cover I was able to see the buck behind an ocotillo. Range was 82 yards. I knocked an arrow and dialed the slider to 82. If he steps out I will get a chance. 1 well placed arrow and he ran for 2 seconds. Made a trip to the truck to drop all my gear and hiked back to process him and pack out. I could not be happier. I’ve been trying to do a solo spot and stalk Coues for 10 years now.

No, the client carried the elk by himself to the vehicle. I am sure they traveled separately and the client rented a truck, just so jed would not be held accountable for taking him to the reservation. When I pay 5 or 6 figures for an elk hunt. I want to make sure the guide watches me carry the elk.

Man what a blessed week! To have the opportunity to go to desert. Have you guys seen the desert lately? So beautiful! Beautiful weather! And to have the ability to harvest a beautiful buck, man I'm...I have no words, I'm just so thankful! Then I go to one of the metro units and took a javalina with my bow! Wow! Happy Birthday to me I guess! Thank you Lord for the opportunity and the ability!

Agreed, the facts about the Debaca case make its sound like he was screwed over for a nothingburger.

My biggest buck an Az archery otc

Did I read or watch it wrong?? from what I saw he wasn't even with the hunter??? So how would he know with an ABSOLUTE certainty that he shot from the road.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but facts are facts. Posting frivolous arguments to diminish those facts are obvious attempts at damage control. There's nothing shady, messy, corrupt or nefarious about charging and convicting a hunting guide for having an illegally taken animal in his vehicle.

Yeah you got bad intel. The customer service people at AZGFD are not law enforcement or policy setters. They are cashiers. Most of them don’t have any idea what the rules are and word of mouth policy runs rampant without any fact checking. You can apply for hunts for which you will be 10 on the start date. For the OP, your son can apply twice a year for javelina. The next opportunity will be in May for youth only hunts that occur in the fall. The next opportunity to apply will be in October for hunts that occur in Jan-March. He can apply for any hunt, but the youth only hunts have a few advantages. If you are new to hunting there are many great organizations that help mentor young and new hunters. You might consider connecting with one of them at a camp. https://www.azgfd.com/hunting/hunter-education-events/

That's not true, if that's what was said. He can def apply if he turns 10 before the hunt. But he cant apply for a bonus point only until he turns 10.

I used him in September on my super duty. Even months later he responds to texts/questions.

I’ll take any Kaibab hunt anytime…however, I quit putting in for it as it takes too flipping long to draw even an early tag anymore. I can’t leave bonus points in my will, so I’m using them as fast as I can get them , lol

I have a Seekins Precision PH2 in 300 win mag. Comes with Seekins rifle case and 30mm Zeiss rings. Round count is 20, sighted it in over a year ago and then pulled the scope for another rifle. Haven’t shot it since then….Located in Gilbert $1450….

224k on the odometer. You’d be pretty hard pressed to find another Tundra of this generation in this shape mechanically. Carfax has over 69 service records, Arizona truck owned its whole life, original owners neighbor bought it from him had it for a short time and didn’t drive it but registered it. Really a 1 owner truck. Truck was not in a car on car accident. Damage was caused by a palo verde tree while out archery hunting. A little dent removal and fender flare would bring it back to looking cherry. 4WD works great along with everything else. -Front and rear LED lighting -LED lighting in cab -Husky floor liners front and rear (carpet is in excellent condition -Matching camper shell with 5% tint all the way around -American Outlaw wheels -265/75/16 Goodyear Wrangler tires -5% tint all around on cab with strip on windshield -Rear brakes and drums done at 222k -Oil changed at 224k with full synthetic and OE filter -Power steering pump done at 222k $8.5k, Arizona City (480)848-8six9seven Rest of pictures aren’t loading.

Finished this huge Stone Sheep tonight. It's freaking Awesome!!!!!

How do you think he got it off the reservation? My guess would be transport of illegally taken game.

Here's the actual rule R12-4-104

She can have a hunting license at 9. It's just not valid for big game until she is 10.

I don’t think there’s a minimum age for buying a license. I have friends who bought their kid a lifetime when they were born..,

There are actually two draws for Javelina. The one you're looking for is the spring draw in October for hunts in Jan and Feb of 2027. There is a fall draw for javelina but it is youth only so your son can apply for that and hunt this fall. You can apply your kid for both. The OTC options aren't great so I would just apply for the draws. It won't take long to draw.

A few more sent home today.

If silver follows trad gold ratios you know where it’s going. I’ll pay spot for eagles. Pm me.
