The success rate hasn't changed much, I think guys are sick of NOT elk hunting, hence more applicants for the tougher hunts.

21 early archery, 8 late archery, then put in some cow hunts for 3, 4 and 5. If I get one of those Ill sign it over to my daughter if she doesnt get drawn.

Shes awesome. A great role model for our daughters as well.

Maybe we should have a list of members who are looking for unwanted game meat. Name, contact info, nearby units.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing all this with us.

great photos! thanks

Now THAT is living. Good job.

Thanks Gino. And hope all is well over there in Strawberry.

Crazy. But I kept wondering what the heck is the above ground pool ladder there for?

Though this info will probably have only minor influence on my choices I love the information you provide and how you present it. Thanks.

You don't get out enough.... I know.

I can't justify it for something I only use a few days a year. I'll just stick with my el freebo's and make due.

Nailed it again, Craig. Thanks.

I have buyers remorse whenever I buy something. Like others have said you get caught in the cycle. All I have now are a pair of 10x30's I got for free. No remorse.

Now all the shed hunters are going to toss their Grong orange shirts and start wearing pink Disney princess shirts. Very cool thanks for sharing.

Near panda express in Prescott. Seeing stickers more often in the area, thats cool.

PM'd you. Thanks.

I shoot a single pin. When still hunting I set the pin to match the terrain. 40 for open country. 20 in thicker stuff. Ive also found that practicing this by walking the 3d course and using a fixed pin helps.

Do it

So I'm javelina hunting last night. And I glass up a coyote a couple hundred yards out trying to dig a rabbit out of a pile of brush. This is the 3rd time I've been in this canyon and seen this particular coyote. After watching him for a bit I decide I might as well try and see if I can call him into bow range. Wind is perfect and I'm well hidden. As soon as I hit the call he 180's and runs faster than any coyote I've ever seen. He didn't even glance in my direction he just blasted away. Is this just a super educated dog? Or am I that uneducated?

Thanks for all the advice. Definatly will be a big help next time.

Its a tough one for pigs but sounds like you may be on to them. Have a good hunt.

You know that was my first thought. I probably should have started out very softly. Next time.

Its possible he could have seen me walking in thats true. He seemed pretty involved with his rabbit chasing and I had been there about an hour when I glassed him up. I was using a distressed cottontail call by primos.

Well, put another tag in the pile. Gave it one last shot after work. Tons of sign but it all seems about a week old. Oh well next year... next year.
