Awesome!! I am very happy for you!!

LOL!! Awesome! You guys got the moves! When you guys gonna do a show here in Globe??

Awesome!! Congratulations on some fine turkey hunting!

Well great job on low hunters and game until next year (2011). They got got greedy I guess...... Took lessons for the AZGFD apparantly.... Up until this year there were 150 tags for units A,B, and C, total combined, now this next year (2011) they have 150 tags for unit A, 150 tags for unit B, and 150 tags for and unit C (totaling) 450 tags. They just up and decided to TRIPLE THE TAGS BECAUSE THEY COULD. We have hunted up there for the last 4 years but because of this we won't any longer. $245.00 is an aweful lot to pay for a Turkey, especially when they triple the amount of tags that we have been used to. My buddy and I both took 10 3/4" bearded Turkey out of there this year, but this is the last year because of their greed. I hate to be a pessimist, good luck to all that apply next year. That was actually just a typo. They did not intend to do 150 tags per unit. I spoke with the director of the dept about it. It will be a total of 150 again just as in the past years. The typo came about because this year they intended to make the tags valid for a particular unit rather than have the tag good for all three units. It's been fixed on their website now too. So next year you will have to pick a particular unit for your hunt. This way the hunting pressure is spread out evenly across the three units. Amanda

good one!

Wow, that's awesome. Take lots of pics and have a great adventure!

Killing them. They are gorgeous animals. It is a shame we have to kill them to put them on the wall. Other than that, getting on an airplane and flying back home to the fridgid frickin cold. They are beautiful animals and they are great eating! Venison is some of the healthiest meat on the planet. I certainly don't kill them just to put them on a wall....

Yes, I think we have enough for two tables. Is everyone from the original table still in? Amanda

Congratulations!! that's awesome! What broadhead did you use?

Wow, quite the lively debate going on here. I was three pages behind on this thread. Anyway, thanks to everyone for sharing their knowledge. Lots to be learned in this thread.

I will be there on Saturday and will bring stickers, shirts, hats, videos, trail cams, etc. So come on by and say Hello!! Can't wait to see the new store and support Jeremy's new business. I hope many of you will be able to stop by for at least a little while.

I would be glad to carry them for you Steven. Call me with details.

Awesome Lance!! It sure was great seeing you guys out there and thanks again for the help on our hunt! Wish Amy was still there when I got there so I could have said hello and congratulated her!

Fun stuff!

Congratulations!! Glad the new baby and mother are doing fine!

neat pic! Reminds me of the three legged javelina I got a trail cam pic of.

That is pretty dang funny!

If it was customs, they were probably running the number in NCIC (which contains a list of reported stolen property) to see if it came back stolen. Most likely there was a 12ga that was reported stolen at some time with the same serial number. Yes, that is exactly what happened. Luckily they decided that the gun didn't match the description of the stolen 12 ga. But it did take some discussion to get them to realize this was not a stolen weapon presented to them.

Nice videos Dustin! Thanks for sharing them!

Nice!! I love getting bobcats on my cams.

WoW! Pretty dang impressive there Steven!! Sounds like there are several CW.comer's willing to test out your broadhead in real world conditions!

Yes, the snake is a gopher/bull snake. They are not poisonous but can act very aggressive when cornered. Very cool that your boy "won over" the snake! And congratulations on a great bird!! Amanda

Beautiful bird!

Have a great one!!
