Sitting here watching the rain come down and catching up on all the latest posts and success stories from this past season. I am truly amazed at the skill level represented by the members of CWT. No other site that Ive been on has members that get it done like this site. We have a guy who just killed his 13th P&Y coues deer; another who harvested 2 javies, a mulie and a lion all in a few weeks; and many of you who move from season to season, species to species with remarkable success. My hats off to you guys and all the members here.

No argument there thats why this site is numero uno.

Great idea I will attend for sure. Thanks.

Very impressive!!!

Thanks for the info gentlemen

Thanks for posting this Don. This is something I think we all knew was coming we just hoped for it to always be " next year". Even the smaller ranches are locking up around my area and my opinion is they are trying to force azg&f's Hand in a tag acquisition plan. Add this loss of access to the FS travel mngmt b.s. and where do we all go for our opportunity?

I was in a client meeting and was unable to connect to the teleconference.... any body have any results

I'm expecting to see them try to implement a tax on ammunition, national registry, gun owner licensing (similar to drivers license), larger and more restrictive 'gun free' zones, ban of private sales. I'm sure most of these will be in Bidens proposal. They don't have to confiscate anything. They can just make it so burdonsome that the majority or people will give in. Then they have a smaller group of gun owners to focus on.

Merry Christmas to all

After banning sale of new assault weapons there will be regisration of existing ones. Then it would be easy to stop the private sale, and you could be held liable if the weapon had not been reported stolen. Also in the immediate future expect a national violence tax similar to what was recently passed in Illinois. Probably much more extensive and expensive.

You hit the nail on the head. All these restrictions at aimed soully at hunters. The vaguer the better in their eyes. Easier to enforce. Like the travel mgmnt plans. Good luck.

Josh, I knew I could count on you for moral support. Thanks kid.

Just a couple of weeks away. Was just curious if any other members will be on this hunt.

Day 8 almost gone. So I was able to convince my wife that elk hunting was more important this year than going to the inlaws for thanksgiving. Havnt seen an elk since .

Day 8. Here we go.

Must've been the Bushnell rangefinder infomercial... another forum member, coues-n-sheep, also makes an appearance.

6a turkey, 17a thru 19b archery javie. And my daughter drew her first big game tag, 20b 21 jr rifle javie. So excited.

Congrats Slummin! I was covered up in elk last night. So many in fact that they were moving around and changing positions so often that I drew and let down 5 times. On the last draw I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder. Sucks getting old. Well around 730 pm the elk left and I headed back to the truck. Defeated. Back in the same spot again this morning. Since its cold I decide to take a couple of practice draws just to get limbered up (again, sucks getting old). To my dismay I cannot get my bow to full draw. Then I look out of the blind and theres a spike, Holy crap!!! Im in the blind tugging an pulling on my bow while he leisurely drinks just 45 yds away. After 10 attempts at me drawing to no avail, the spike leaves. So I came home, turned the bow down to a weight where I can draw it without wincing in pain and am sighting it back in to get back out there this evening. Man I love elk hunting!

Just curious what unit your in. There is no rutting activity here in unit 8 that ive seen. Had a big bull almost in range last night. Im waiting for him to show again tonite. Or his little brother, im not picky.

Sitting water now. Tried some spot and spook this morning. No bulls spotted .

Time to hunt elk. Good luck all and be safe.

The people have spoken and unfortunatly this is the new face of America. Look for more gun legislation, more health care regulation, higher taxation. This is what the majority wants. In the end people voted on free birth control, free abortions and free marijuana. FREEdom and a more robust economy do not matter as long as someone else keeps paying the bills. I think the mid terms will bring the house back to the left as well. As was said before republican turnout was pathetic, yet it was exactly at the number the Dems predicted it to be. They know us better than we know ourselves. That must be why they think they can run our lives better than we can as well.

Little bit of rain and even some snow up here in unit 8 today. Shouldnt be enough to make much of a difference. 5 more days.

Javalina and turkey for me. But best of all my 13 yo daughter drew a jr javalina tag. Her first big game tag. I've never been so excited for a javalina hunt.

I think its a kiln as was said in the other thread. There are many of these around where I live. Even one just off my property. not sure of the exact process, but some how used to extract ore or break/split stone.
