This truck would suit some Coues hunter really well. My 21 year old son is selling it, and he bought it from the guy that had it imported into Kentucky. It has a 4cyl. 3L turbo diesel engine. currently listed on marketplace where we live in Indiana. Call him 928-458-4221 or message through Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/groups/454364054574297/permalink/24446090624974971/?sale_post_id=24446090624974971

Sorry about the link not working. Didn’t realize it was private. Here what the listing says as well as a few other pics. He is asking $16000. He has done a lot of work to it.

I am looking to possibly change from a 125 grain broadhead to a 175 grain broached for this fall’s elk hunt. But I wondered about how it would impact my arrow speed, momentum, etc., so I asked chat gpt, and was pleasantly surprised by helpful information. Prompt: Compare the speeds of 2 arrows, 1 weighing 700 grains shot at 265 feet per second, and the other weighing 650 grains shot at 270 feet per second response in attached pictures i asked several variations of the question, as well as how the velocity of the arrow would change with different weights. here is a link to the entirety of my experience. https://chatgpt.com/share/67d19733-3580-8007-9042-21c801a05784 I think many of us might find this useful as we think about related archery topics. I’m going to keep playing with it when I have time and see what else I might learn.

Sent message. Never heard back. 9283013250.

Interested. I’ll be flying in to phx on the 27th for a Coues hunt. If you still have them at that time, let me know.

I have my wife’s Mathews Passion that is virtually brand new. I bought it for her about 8 years ago thinking I could get her into 3d shooting. I have 40-50lb limbs on it now, and have 50-60lb limbs as well. It’s been shot less than 100x. I believe 28’ draw. It’s black with blue accents, like the top bow in this picture. If you’re interested, let me know.

I think I might have some. I’ll look around.

Somebody in AZ should file a FOIA request to G&F regarding the elk and antelope draw. Would be interesting to see all the emails and internal conversations about what happened. Especially if they got hacked and aren’t letting that out.

After 40+ years as an AZ resident I recently moved out of state. Before I left I purchased a lifetime license. I now have a buddy I want to apply with for the elk hunt next fall. The question is what happens if we apply on the same app? Me with my lifetime license and him as out of state? I sort of assume we would both have to be in the out of state pool. Wondering if this is right, and if there are any other options I’m missing.

Thanks for this info. I think the benefit to my LT license would be lost if we put in together I suppose. I’m not too worried on the bonus point issue since my buddy has 2 points also. I’ll call G&F for clarification.

Awesome. Nice buck!

I think the area around turkey butte is good for deer. You may see both species. It is really nice area.

I have to believe this has been talked about before, but what advice would anyone share on flying with a rifle? What cases are worth the money? Locks? Things not to do? Im flying back to AZ to go to Mexico in January and have not gone through this before. thanks, Twoguns

Great info. I am looking at the Pelican 1750 right now. It’s expensive but looks like it’s solid. And I’ve heard differing thoughts on the ammo. It should be in its original box inside the case with the rifle? Or it should be separate?

Very cool. Makes me think of an old song... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5tdj2_KSGJ0

I brought this up on here during the comment phase of the process. No one really seemed to care, but living in the verde valley, there is a ton of hunting to do along the Verde river...or there was.

Thanks RR, that’s what I was guessing. I really like Leicas, but need to get one that can get a little farther out.

RR, what’s the true effective range of this RF on deer/elk? I’m looking for one to pick up for long range shooting. Thanks

So someone enlighten me how it is that I drew my 2nd choice Javi tag and there are 80+ left over of my first choice?

Went out last Friday morning. Walked up on a couple bulls feeding at 30 yards. About 5:30 am and I just happened to walk up on these clueless bulls. I could hear them chewing. I think I could have stayed there all day watching. So cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxwzOIZvuBo Glassed up a pretty good Coues at about 400 yards. Would love to hear any thoughts on what he might score. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99hzzivl_xk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NzzgeaN3RI I drew the 6A Nov. tag. Getting excited.

In addition, the Commission and Department have received a number of complaints about persons archery hunting near their private property. The Commission proposes to amend the rule to prohibit the discharge of hybrid device, arrow, or bolt while taking wildlife within one-fourth mile of an occupied farmhouse or other residence, cabin, lodge or building without permission of the owner or resident, to increase consistency between statute and rules. This language mirrors statutory language under A.R.S. § 17-309, which prohibits a person from discharging a firearm while taking wildlife within one-fourth mile of an occupied farmhouse or other residence, cabin, lodge, or building without permission of the owner or resident. This change is in response to customer comments received by the Department. In addition, the Commission is aware confusion exists as to what distance constitutes "one-fourth mile" and "one-half mile." The Commission proposes to clarify this distance by also referencing this distance in yards (440 or 880, as applicable) to reduce regulatory uncertainty. This change is in response to customer comments received by the Department

If I m reading this right, this is not good... Under A.R.S. § 17-309(A)(4), it is unlawful to discharge a firearm while taking wildlife within one-fourth mile of an occupied farmhouse or other residence, cabin, lodge or building without permission of the owner or resident. Under R12-4-303(A)(3)(h), it is unlawful to discharge a pneumatic weapon .30 caliber or larger while taking wildlife within one-fourth mile of an occupied farmhouse or other residence, cabin, lodge or building without permission of the owner or resident. In addition, the Commission is aware of instances where a hunter who lives on the edge of a municipal boundary is unable to archery hunt on his own property because Commission Order closes areas within one-fourth mile of an occupied residence. For example, a hunter who lives on the edge of a forest boundary and who is miles away from the nearest residence is unable to archery hunt on their own property because of the location of their own home. In addition, the Commission and Department have received a number of complaints about persons archery hunting near their private property. The Commission proposes to amend the rule to prohibit the discharge of hybrid device, arrow, or bolt while taking wildlife within one-fourth mile of an occupied farmhouse or other residence, cabin, lodge or building without permission of the owner or resident, to increase consistency between statute and rules. This language mirrors statutory language under A.R.S. § 17-309, which prohibits a person from discharging a firearm while taking wildlife within one-fourth mile of an occupied farmhouse or other residence, cabin, lodge, or building without permission of the owner or resident. This change is in response to customer comments received by the Department. I read it to say that we will not be allowed to archery hunt within 440 yards of residences without their permission. If so, all of us that love hunting along the verde river for birds, javelina, deer and elk are screwed. Somebody tell me I'm wrong... I emailed AZGFD and hope to hear back from them. The only reasoning stated is that some people have complained. Seems like a lot of us will be punished to alleviate the complaining.
