Put out more trailcams. You are bound to find them. Im betting they are in the flats like Creed said.

I was originally thinking of going with Luke again. When I talked to him, he let me know that his Moose population is not as good as he would like right now for legal bulls and that he has a buddy that offers drop camps for moose with a much better population right now. He is such a stand up guy and was just honest with me. I booked with his buddy and the cool part is, I will get to hunt southern Ak next year. Our caribou hunt was north of Fairbanks and the weather was cold with snow, sleet and rain. Next year, the average temps where I will be in Sept. will be highs around 50 and lows will be high 30's, low 40's. Now i will get a taste of the nats, whitesocks and mosquitos.

Agree, 22 was packed full

That would be great. I agree though, i see no chance of it happening. I dont think anyone us telling savageman not to crossgun hunt. What I and maybe others are saying is: Its time to approach agfd about crossguns and make changes. If a guy has a permanent injury, preventing him from using a bow, he shouldn't be able to crossgun hunt during an archery season. I think CHAMP season would be better or general.

22 is a large unit vertically. The northern part is vastly different from the southern part. It could have snow up north and be 70-80* down south. This affects the road conditions. Some will be good, some will be terrible. Deer are throughout the unit but in my experience the better bucks have been found by getting away form the roads or going into the wilderness areas. Good luck on your hunt, 22 is loaded with lots of animals.

Get some thicker skin

That new Chappelle special tho. The impossible pu##y. Lmfao

You think same buck? or same gene? That shed looks old AF.

Yeah, no way to pass him up, but he might be really cool next year or after.

Nice tall buck there. Can't tell age, but it would be nice if he lived another year or two. Maybe that little kicker will turn into something.

I thought it was rifle sight in, not crossbow.

buehler, buehler

Agree with Lance. Hard to ask guys that have never been to that ranch before. Every ranch in Mexico is different. I know a lot of guys that go to Mexico for coues and I would say they break 105" less than 25% of the time. They have shot some jumbos as well, but the ranches they hunt they seem to be right around 100's.

Not sure anyone is bitching here, simply having a discussion on a discussion forum. Cross"bows" are a tough subject. I understand how guys, who have always been bowhunters, want to continue bowhunting. Even if their bodies tell them they can not. It is simply a passion of many hunters and I would say most bowhunters love it because we get more time in the field, better season dates and the animals are usually easily visible. So I understand the passion and the want to continue to hunt during the archery season. The facts are, if I cock a crossbow for just about anyone, they will be able to be fairly accurate off of a tripod and hit what they are aiming at. The same can not be said for any compound bow. At what point do you realize that maybe your body is telling you that you are no longer able to bowhunt, so it is time to pick up a rifle and switch to the general season? Or do you stop halfway and start muzzleloading? Slightly later seasons but less pressure on the animals vs. the general hunt. I know when I went to Alaska for a Caribou hunt I realized that I am gonna have to go back for a moose hunt here soon, because my body might not be able to pack out 130lb moose quarters, miles over the tundra here in 10 years. It was hard enough at 35, I could only imagine packing a moose out at 47. F that. Sometimes you just gotta listen to your body. No need to get sour when guys have different opinions.

Easy with the ignorant comments part. Guy has an opinion. Is he not allowed to have it without you telling him he's ignorant?

If I had your money, I'd burn mine for fun! I'm too young, thats why I said YOU should try them. 🤣

Not in 33 or 4b

Yup, priorities in life..

When they improve on them, ill buy the new ones too. Just money, we'll make more tomorrow.

You should try the Nl's, Its your eyes on steroids and Viagra.

Lol, definitely the way she drives.

Nice buck! Love seeing kids knock down good animals. Congrats

That 5x5 is amazing! I'd love to shoot that guy.

Our 2014 v6er has been a good vehicle. The V6 is pretty gutless but is enough for her. She has managed to wear her brakes out in 42k miles. Makes me wonder how I have gotten 116000 out of my Ram 2500's brakes and she cant get 50k out of her's. haha.

Thankfully it was just a couple of small elk sheds. Easily replaced and you get to hike more with your daughter to do it.
