Not true. They cashed my check the week after I sent my application in. I heard that was the law with the credit cards but I heard that on here so not sure what the law actually is. They have to cash your check to be able to refund your money, minus the app fee, so I know that's not true for checks.

I am working....but it must be hard for you to turn wrenches while on CWT.COM.

Well on a positive note 654321 successfully derailed the paper app vs credit card argument with that statement. LOL I'm not really against that process since it says right in the regs it's legal. But to use that to justify why you don't have enough money to apply is.......well......ridiculous. It is possible to save up that much money to apply, I fronted more than that to apply for Elk, Deer, Antelope, and Sheep in NM. As did quite a few other people.
-
I don't believe that putting in people that don't have the intention to hunt is justification for not fronting money.
-
Writing a check doesn't front up the money They cash them well before the draw and don't refund until after the draw. I wish they would charge the cards up front too. And NO, they shoudn't go back to paper apps only...this is 2014. Anyone that hunts in NM sees how the credit card system should work. Would probably be a good idea to move the archery deer hunts in with Elk/Antelope to give a little more time to prepare for the hard to draw hunts.

That's too bad, hope you get the tag of your dreams when you return. Some states have a system where you can turn in a tag you can't use and get your money and points back. Then that tag goes to the next person that would have drawn that tag. They just have to draw a few reserves for each hunt in case that happens. I'm sure they have to prove a good reason for not using the tag too. I know I've had a tag that I couldn't use and it just went in the trash. This was a lot time ago before I knew about donating them.

Seriously. I have seen some awesome muley's just yards from the golf course. Great archery spot. Not anymore...lol

The loctite with the brush, so much easier to control how much goes on the vane. Plus, it's cheaper than anything made by an archery company.

mechanical broadheads success and failures
BMart replied to creed_az_88's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
lol. Best as in best shot, not smartest. I probably could have worded that better. I was trying to say that even a guy that could hit a paper plate from 125 yards 9 of 10 times was still not doing good shooting light arrows with mechanicals. -

I killed my one and only bull with a Swhacker 1.5" cut. I've also killed 4 Javelina and 1 Mule Deer with the Swhackers. Everything has died within sight, which is good because about half of them didn't have good blood trails. Now, I was using a 480 grain arrow for the Elk. The arrow hit a rib square, split the rib in half and still got through both lungs. 21 yard shot, slightly quartered to. A friend of mine shot a huge cow elk from 90 yards with a Swacker that did the exact same thing on the rib. His actually stuck in a rib on the opposite side. Again 450+ grain arrows. I also know of one of the best archers in the state that lost 3 elk in 1 year. He was using a 3 blade mechanical that was similar to a Spitfire. He was using a 350 grain arrow, not one of those 3 shots penetrated enough to kill an elk. I'm sure there are some success stories out there of killing elk with light arrows but it's going to fail you at some point. I'll take a 500 grain arrow moving at 260fps over a 330 grain arrow moving at 315fps all day every day. Heavy arrow, ANY sharp broadhead, good to great shot angle = Dead Animals. -
Probably around end of August after all the extensions for CC problems. Wish they could find a way to charge the cards up front to keep from having these issues over and over.
-
Every year I say I'm going to hunt in August and then I remember it's 110 degrees and stay home. Think I'll just help 5GuysHunting get that beer away from his dog.

How many animals have you harvested in Arizona
BMart replied to Seldom Drawn's topic in The Campfire
Archery (compound)- 1 Coues Deer, 2 Mule Deer, 1 Bull, 4 Javelina. Archery (traditional)- 1 Javelina, 1 Cow Elk. Rifle- 1 Mule Deer, few Coyotes Been hunting off and on for 25 years, with a 4 year break for college where I didn't have time. Been taking it serious for the last 5 years, pretty much didn't kill anything for the first 20 years. lol -
ttt I just found the 3rd magazine too, knew I had one but it was hiding.

Glock 20SF. Less than 100 rounds through it, carried it hunting quite a bit. Some bluing fading on the slide release. 2 Mags, plastic case, standard stuff that comes with all Glocks. I would trade for a Glock 29SF or sell for $550. Safariland Duty Holster for Model 20, 20SF, 21, or 21 SF- $80 Leather holster for Model 20, 20SF, 21, or 21 SF- $45

I had my first antelope tag last year, an archery tag. I used the Be the Decoy on about 7 stalks, not once did they come to me. About half of them took off running and the other half just stood and stared at me out of bow range. I was trying to get inside of 150 then pop my head out with the goad hat on and get them to charge in but they never did. Tried the cow once too but that scared the crap out of them too. I probably could have killed that buck if I would have left the cow behind because the junipers were pretty thick where I was. I got to 100 before they even saw me lugging the cow decoy around.

It is, I love this little thing, can't wait to get a 4 door to have a little more room for overnight trips. I've had this for about 2 years and it's great to zip around the desert with. The wheel base is similar to a 4 seat ranger and I would bet it will go just about anywhere a range could.....plus drive on the highway. Oh and has AC, Heat, and a roof!!
-
I forgot to add: The last picture is the spare tire mount that broke around the welds the other day. Anyone that can weld should be able to fix it in a few minutes, or just take it off and put the spare on the roof rack.

AZGFD website what the heck?
BMart replied to willhunt4coues's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
I did mine the day it opened and worked fine but a buddy of mine was trying just a few minutes ago and it wouldn't even work at all.
