You know how to make a grown man cry? Tell Him he was drawn for Big Horn Sheep. Know how to make him cry twice? Tell him it was a mistake.

Are there places to camp off of Pintail Lake Rd, Burbon Ranch Rd, or Little Mormon Lake Rd?

I've installed 10 or 12 strings from 60XCustomStrings. Brad does a good job and they cost less than Winners Choice, America's Best, or Vapor Trail. I've bought 60X strings for multiple PSE's, a few Mathews, and a Hoyt or 2. All have tuned great in short order and I have not seen serving separation or any other problems with any of them.

I went to this when Corky came to Gila Outdoor in Safford. It was good, he's fun to listen to.

I like how the system is now for the type of hunts I apply for. I could see how guys with 20 points are upset, but they are also applying for premium hunts. Nobody that has 20 points has probably ever thought of applying for the hunts that I have drawn. I'm thinking of applying for early archery first choice, late archery second choice from now on. The unit I'll be applying for would give me a chance to draw a bull tag 4 out of 5 years. Even if my success rate is below 20% I'm still going to kill more elk in my life than someone applying for unit 9 early rifle every year. Of course the elk I kill will probably be in the 290"-330" range instead of 360"+, but I'll be in the field with my bow almost every year. I apply for premium hunts in NM so when I do get lucky over there and pay the $780 tag fee I'll get to go on a premium hunt.

I did a lot of research on packs a year ago. I was told the 3 best/most popular were the Mystery Ranch Crew Cab, Kifaru, and Outdoorsmans. I ended up with the Crew Cab and love it, think it will last many years. I don't know anything about the OX, but sounds like it's well liked and probably less expensive than the 3 I listed. CCRAN- I see you're in Safford. PM me if you want to check mine out.

10-4, I'll stay out of their front yards. Thanks again.

Good info. I used habi-map and access Arizona and saw the checker board. Just didn't know if there would be locked gates all over. I hunt some places close to home that look like this on a map but none of its posted unless there are houses. Thank you.

I've never applied for premium hunts, I would rather go hunting than collect points. I've been drawn 3 of the 4 years I've applied for Elk. With the hunts I will apply for in the future, I'm expecting a tag every 2-3 years. But I'll never be in a unit where I would expect to see a 380"+ Bull. 2010- Not drawn 2011- 7E Early Archery Cow 2012- 4B Early Archery Cow 2013- 7E Early Archery Bull
