I would have sworn I saw a couple cows in the Superstitions above Apache Lake back around 2002-2003, but they were a LONG ways out and back before I had top tier glass. I cannot verify that with 100% certainty.

Great buck! Congrats.

My brother and I go high power bunny hunting quite a bit in the winter. Great long range practice.

I saw a photo of my #2 goat on the ground......bummed I didn't draw that tag still.

Coming home from work. I had my daughter with me, so I could use the carpool lane!

I bought her a CZ Redhead Premier w. 26" barrels. Super light, fast swinging, well balanced. LOP is just a touch long still, but not bad. Also picked up a case of 20 Ga. light target loads, and recoil is almost non-existent. I really like it too. Slayed some birds myself with it today.

Eurasians are not counted as part of your limit. Non-native species. No limit, no season restrictions. But after opening day of 31 birds total (6 WW, 6 Mourning, 19 Eurasian), I felt that 15 birds (16 for me, with 13 of them Eurasians) for each of us was enough for that day. My daughter was hot and tired already, and I was picking the Eurasians on purpose for the bigger breasts (I like big breasts). We easily could have stayed until dark being selective and shot 200+ Eurasians if we had that many shells.

Absolutely. 3D deer target and a block for broadheads.

I have a set I use all the time, hiking, hunting, backpacking, etc. for about 5 years now. Trekker brand. Collapsible down to about 24" long, out to about 48" or so? Aluminum and lightweight. Fairly inexpensive.

Went out again yesterday afternoon with my youngest daughter (13). Now she has only shot a shotgun one day (last Sunday at the Sporting Clay range), and using my 12 Ga. O/U got the better of her. I felt so bad, I went out ad bought her a new 20 Ga. O/U Sunday afternoon. So anyway, we went out yesterday for an afternoon hunt. Got out there after work and school about 4:15PM. First shot with the new shotgun, and she popped a Eurasian right out of the sky! At 5:15, we were done. 2 limits (+1), a total of 27 shots of 20 Ga., and 22 shots from my 12 Ga. 31 birds in all. 75% Eurasian.

Very freaking funny. You are grounded for a week....

Awesome selfie! Looks like a great time.

6 whitewings. All tiny. Smallest birds I shot today.

Epic day of dove hunting. Most fun I have had hunting doves in 20 years. Saw some members out there in the field too. Shot a bunch of grey rockets. If Eurasians counted into the limit, I would have been done by 6:15. Luckily, they don't, so I wasn't.

If you are that disgruntled, give the tag to an organization that would love to have it. Call AZGFD and ask them where you can donate it.

Looks like I'm on my own opening morn. Actually think i have Pt at 9:30 so gotta shoot quick and get homeWhich dairy are you at? Only one of my original 3 are meeting me, so you can hang out with us..

Thanks. Downloaded to my phone.

Dang, those are old.....Have you had them rebuilt yet? Nope. I got them as takeoffs from another F250, and they still work great.

3-4 hours morning and evening is not enough, especially over 2 and a half days. I have sat a treestand from an hour before sunup until well after dark for 7 days waiting on a specific buck to show....which he did....and I missed.....

Fantastic use of Strip tags! Awesome bucks.

That is why it is called "hunting" and not "killing". Deer are fickle beasts.

One of the coolest 3x3s I have ever seen. Amazing trophy. I would take him over a decent 4x4 any day. Congrats!!!
