You should dig into this and see if you can get a public information request.

You gotta sign up for in stock alerts. Midway has had them twice in the last week or so. Once you get the alert, you have 19 seconds to actually make the purchase. They are really hard to come by still

I am for the new change. The select few outfitters will probably suffer the most in all honesty. Another step in the right direction.

Continue complaining about it or buy a 400$ part and save $ on shop install. Seems like an easy decision.

Awesome hunt for sure. There are some great goats in there, but lots of little pockets to hide in. That August hunt has to have one of the highest populations of rattlesnakes I've ever seen. I was starting to think the rattlesnakes only diet was pronghorn poop.

Some guys will never learn.. Rest in peace otc 4b.

Man, trophy has you all kinds of triggered. 1 word... "why" caused this?

I agree, they are still one of the most fun hunts I go on. There is something about them making us feel like we are good at hunting. Nice Work!

You got this.

If you don't hunt or fish, why are you on this forum?

Lol. Big bag of dicks

Bs fee that some dealers charge for tint and a supposed clear coat on paint or other dealer addons

Lol, the SxS and quad argument is trash imo. Only guys that notice them are usually the guys road hunting and getting mad at others doing the same. Ive actually used the noise of other SxS's to advance my position on stalks, same with airforce Jets.

In central AZ unit, the coues deer have moved further into muley country. 10 years ago I maybe would see a couple coues and 20-30 muley a morning. Now its completely opposite. Wt thriving and muleys are more difficult to find

Solid AF, I had a feeling he was getting close to 180.

Crazy unique rack. Out of pure curiosity and scoring practice on a unique rack, what does he score?

Ignorant view...

Definitely the wave of the future. Most should try it, before you knock it. Azgfd may be ahead of the curve on this one. It could potentially, in the long term, save some $$. I have no doubt, that in the future, you will be able to purchase otc tags online too. That would be a huge convenience, especially for the guys who wait til the last minute.

It always was easy, but even easier now. I also like the fact that maybe some more harvest surveys will get filled out. It is a step in the right direction imo. More harvest data = more accurate counts. Mandatory reporting and check in would be ideal, but may be a long way off or never happen. It used to be kind of a pain to have 4 or 5 tags in your pack and have to keep shuffling them around depending on which pack or animals I planned to encounter. Also just had an instance on Thursday where a buddy's paper pig tail got a little wet from the rain and it was an absolute pain to peel off the backing to apply it to the pig. I managed to get enough sticky left on the tag to attach it, but it was close to no bueno.

Yes

Easy to use, but there are a few drawbacks. You have to go to AZGFD to buy your tags. I was told that in the future they may implement kiosks at dealers to streamline the buying process tho. You need to carry some way to attach your validation number to the animal. I grabbed some large stickers from game and fish and carry a sharpie in my pack. After you Etag an animal, it will then give you a # that you need to write on something and attach it to the horn or carcass. I do like how all my tags are shown in the app and I do not need to remember to grab all my tags (deer, lion, turkey, javelina, bear) I will continue use the Etag process

The Javelina we found yesterday were all bedded up in the sun @ 3pm. Terrible weather yesterday, but managed to get a pig and a shot at a muley for my out of state buddies. Javelina have a relatively small range, after a good rain storm, put in some boot miles in an area where you have seen them and try and narrow down their range. Once you find a herd or 2, the hunting will last for years and years. No need to hike miles away from roads unless you like that sort of thing. Most of the herds I hunt are spotted from high points off of roads and then stalked into and killed.

I asked them about this. Sounds like possibly some electronic kiosks may start going into some of their dealers.
