    2002 Tacoma or 4runner for sale

    I know things have changed dramatically over last few years but I sold my 2001 creampuff 4runner 3.5 years ago, mint condition, 4x4, low miles for the year never offroad with it and I got $3900. Wish I had it back but I wouldn't sell it this time. Good Luck with your sell.
  3. Hello, I am just starting to do my research for good AZ bear hunting guide, but I do not want to hunt with hounds. I'm okay with spot & stalk, calling or sitting in a blind. I've got no problem with people who use hounds but that is not how I want to get my first and probably last bear. Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks
  4. If you read about Arizona's earliest history when they were first trying to discover routes across state and follow rivers, they write about encountering wild cattle. This was especially true in south east Arizona. Supposedly early Spanish settlers abandoned them when they left due to hostile conditions mostly related to Indian encounters. They write about how dangerous the wild cattle were and would attack men and horse, often killing them. Arizona has a serious feral donkey and feral horse problems. They say a feral horse/donkey population doubles every 4-6 year if gone unchecked. Somebody in a position of leadership needs to grow a pair and deal with it but they are all afraid of the woke blind fools.

    Thanks for reports and Pics. Like already mentioned, this is all very encouraging and the entire state desperately needs it. Would appreciate it if you keep pics and reports coming.

    Keep Looking Down.

    As a kid growing up in the 70's my dad and I would go walking around Mnt. Ord. We use to find all kinds of old bottle and such. A lot of the old bottles back in the day used to have their date on the bottoms. I still come across a few old ones from time to time.

    Non-Res Deer tags sold out

    G&F should not allow NR's any OTC options. Name one other western state that allows NR's the chance to hunt mule deer or coues deer during the rut by just buying an OTC tag. Albeit now they have to move quick to buy online. Arizona has a very finite resource and an ever-growing human population. By making NR's apply for all their hunts it will make them use their accumulated bonus points whereas now they apply for some primo rifle hunts and then buy OTC.

    E Tag App

    Don't mean to hijack thread but what is the advantage of an e-tag from a hunter's point of view? I never found using a paper tag all that difficult and never once had a problem with the current way of using a tag. I always completed surveys online once I got the reminder in the mail. Easy peazy. The way I see it there are more negatives to an etag. No phone service to "tag" animal and people questioning whether or not your animal is actually tagged are just a couple red flags for me. What am I missing? I'm not trying to be negative, just trying to understand better.

    Yes, those pups are all blues and will get darker after a few months. They will look just like mom & dad.

    I am on my 3rd one and each of them have been great dogs. Very devoted to owner and super smart. I do not recommend these dogs for people who only want a house pet. These dogs are born to work and be messed with.

    Non-Resident cap on OTC archery deer tags

    Sorry but I hope this is a very short-lived solution. We live in a state with a very limited number of deer that is not increasing. At best, some units are stable. Compound that with a human population that has already grown over 6 million people over last 40 years and is predicted to grow by another 1.4 million people this decade. All this and then add on the 20+ year drought we have been experiencing. The last thing we should be offering is OTC opportunities to non-residents when we can't meet the needs/wants of the residents. What other western state offers OTC deer (especially mule deer) opportunities to NR's during the very best times to hunt them during the rut? This is crazy I have no facts to support this assumption, but I only know what I have observed and read. I believe NR's are more successful per capita than resident hunters. When they travel from out of state to hunt, they tend to hunt harder and longer than most resident OTC archery deer hunters. Because of this they tend to be more successful. A NR is more likely to hire a guide/outfitter as well which adds to their success Game fish should have just issued NR's a very limited # of tags for each unit and made them apply and draw the tag. I am not anti- NR but I am pro Arizona wildlife and hunters. With the quota system in place now all this new NR's solution is going to do is take opportunity away from residents. The faster quotas fill, the sooner hunts close. If I'm wrong, I am wrong. Nothing would make me happier.

    When I see stuff like this it reminds me why I am so thankful our founding fathers had the foresight that they did. Simply genius.

    23 North Early Archery

    Thanks for sharing video. I have heard all kinds of horror stories about hunting 23 and 27 as being very physical. After watching the video first thing I noticed is there are no rock and boulders to walk and trip over. The areas I hunt may not be up and down hard but the rocks kick your butt. That almost looked like walking on a carpeted floor. My ankles would scream for joy if I ever hunted someplace like that.

    Success on his first youth deer hunt!

    A quick search on the internet found this 20c youth camp from last year. Not sure if they are doing it again but might be worth contacting them. Be safe and Have fun. Unit 20C Youth Deer Hunt Camp - AMDO - (beoutdoorsarizona.org)

    That's too bad. Will probably starve to death as it becomes too difficult to eat.
