Notime2hunt

2003 Ranger

Asking $15,250. Paid 17K in March of 2012. 2 owners. I bought the boat from a personal friend that took great care of the boat. Kept indoors whole time

Are you an outfitter for A3? congrats on a neat looking antelope. seems to have a bunch of character. How does A3 work as far as guiding? it seems they have a lot of people that work for them. Is A3 the new Mossback? I talked to some guys in Springervile and they said they worked for A3 as well. kind of curious as to how A3 does it? Do they have guys all over the state ? living in different towns and they hire them to guide? Just Curious. Thanks

BoneCollector777, Everything is all good pal. Never meant to cause a ruckus. That's a solid bull and Im hoping to have that same tag sooner then later. Got 9 BP so I may have awhile to go before I get there. Never know though. good luck on the hunting this year. Sy T.

Bonecollector777 I wasn't referring to this post. Previous posts. Didn't say a word bout this bull. congrats on a good bull. And you saying "it doesn't matter what you say cause people are always going to think you are starting drama" I THINK and don't know but that may be caused by the previous posts I referred to. Again, if it came across that I was attacking or making untrue comments about you... my apologies. Wasn't my intent. Best of luck

Same reason you care about what I'm saying. Because its a public forum. I'm not upset about or at this guy. I made a suggestion on a open/public forum. Why do you care what I say? Making a suggestion is not controlling someone. But whatever you want to say is fine with me. No worries either way. Best of luck bonecollector777, If I ended up offending you I apologize. I made an observation that I thought may benefit you in the future. But for all I know you are a stellar individual. No hard feelings were intended by making a comment. And azkiller don't make comments you know nothing about like "go back to not hunting" how do you know I haven't been hunting? Because of my user name? if you would like to compare successful hunts we can do that. I feel I've done okay. If you'd like to give me a call to discuss in more detail we can do that as well. Just give me your number or Ill give you mine and maybe we can even meet to discuss it. Maybe we'll end up being acquaintances

What? The spark of what? "arm chair QB crap on here"? What does that even mean? No sir, my feelings are not hurt just simply thought I would make a suggestion to maybe stay out of the drama and be humble. Nothing at all against him personally like I said. Don't know him or his character or ethics. Just simply made an observation noticing that he has been in quite a few typing confrontations and for what reason? to be a tough guy behind the computer? He can simply talk to you about how to do that. I wish that gentlemen nothing but success in his hunting adventures. Just simply asked about the drama and why stir it up. And yes.... I am sure if you polled the human race - Curing cancer would qualify you being a badass before killing a 370" bull elk. The comparison may be a little drastic but again.... Killing a 370 or 470 for that matter, does not make you a badass. It makes you another hunter who was blessed enough to take a better then average bull elk.

Never said he couldn't talk about the bull in his profile pic. Lol Sack up? Said should be humble. And I referenced what I was talking about = previous posts. Not this particular one. Might wanna re-read my post. Didn't say a word about not being able/being able to talk about a successful hunt. I talked about the drama I continue to see in the posts that particular user is involved in. Get it straight BIG tough guy. Learn to read and analyze. Nobody got their "widdow feewings" hurt except you by getting excited and saying Sack up and Nanny BS. Your so tough bro. I bet you are the toughest guy around. Its a good thing to be humble and its a good thing to not always be in drama. AGAIN never said a word about being proud or not proud of killing big bull elk

I sure don't know bonecollector777 so I'm not going to bash his character or ethics. However, I will say it sure seems like you are always in some kind of drama on this site. IF I remember right, you were the individual posting on numerous topics expressing your opinions. Most of those opinions seem to upset people (Ex. the topic about a game warden having his buddies finish off a wounded bull elk, the topic about a deer being shot with a bow that was a "park deer") I believe the list goes on and on. If you don't mind me asking... Why so much drama? And just because you kill 1 big animal or 25 big animals, it doesn't make you a badass. Cure Cancer then you are a badass. I know quite a few individuals that have killed very large animals and I am thankful they are humble and do not boast about it. Cool out and keep this a friendly site please.

Dale, I came up a few months back with garrett. Just wanted to say hello. That remount looks real good. Hope all is well. SY

What is everyones opinion on the best antelope unit in az? For quality not quanity

4 hunts with over 1000 tags. That may explain why most people are not seeing bucks

Pine donkey.... "that could be him?" That is definitely the same bull

If you dont mind me asking what unit are you guys hunting

We are hunting partners so we will end up putting in together. And hes 84 years old and a blast to hunt with. Still hikes anywhere I do. Troohyhunter, do my 13 points compared to his 17 really hurt his chances of drawing substantially?

I've got 13 points and my partner has 17. Hows the pass line and bonus points work for something like that?

Cameras for hunters are like PED"s for professional athletes. Should have to do it like the old days. Boone and Crockett trophies from the 50's didnt get taken by getting a text message at midnight showing a 200" deer or 400" elk walked by. Get out and scout but imo leave the cameras behind. I believe it slightly takes some of the pure excitement out when you have these cameras. When you see a monster for the first time and you have your weapon with you it is much more exciting then when you've seen him 25 times on a camera. Also, I feel we need to give these animals a better chance of surviving. What happened to fair chase?

If I started this thread can I delete it? Id like to take these pics down

I was able to take this buck Friday evening @ 53 yards. Had a great time on the hunt with my cousin. I'm sure I will be bummed in December when I can not chase them during the early rut

Here are pics

After hunting unit 23 the last week in August and not having much luck, I decided to head up north to unit 27. I was excited to get up there last weekend as my cousin had seen about 12 bucks over labor day weekend. I got up to our cabin at 330 friday afternoon. My cousin and I left the cabin at 4 and this deer was down by 430.(stars aligned)I shot him at 53 yards. After the shot the deer went about 30 yards and that was it. Here are a few more pics of the deer and a pic of where the mount will hang!

Just over 28" Inside

I've seen you with quite a few nice deer on several posts. Congrats on another. If you don't mind me asking... Do you have a full time job? In order to continually harvest big deer means you have to know where to hunt/scout, which takes a lot of time. How do you have the time to do this if you have a full time job? I'm thinking about another job field because running your own business leaves a rare Saturday afternoon and every once in awhile a Sunday. It depresses me very much to not be able to hunt/scout.

Mule deer on right is 181" Mule deer taken in 23 a few years ago

Stop telling the secret spots. jk. 23 is the best overall Unit in the state. (My opinion) You can hunt just about every animal that Az offers. From the low desert all the way to the pines. I think I'll try and list the animals 23 offers. And trophies at that. Mule deer, whitetail, elk , javelin, bear, turkey , yotes, lions, antelope, Sheep, quail, dove, bobcat, banned pigeon, what else did I miss?
