AZGFD Dec 7th Commission Meeting - Education Funding
HuntHarder replied to stanley's topic in The Campfire
The need is very apparent. If you did not pay attention to the last campaign the anti's launched, you should have. If their bills make it to an Arizona vote, chances are we lose right now. This would have ended bobcat and Mt. Lion hunting. This state is turning into California faster than most think. We are no longer a red state, but more of a blueish purple state. Sucks real bad. After thinking about other options of raising money, this does seem like one of the better ideas placed in front of us. I HATE the idea of money= better odds, but something has to be done sooner than later. -
Another approach to sheep... Despite what some will say, the Cliff Carp are not intelligent at all. They are pretty easy to locate all in all and passing on rams is a part of the hunt. I have no doubt that you can pass rams and then go back and find the ram you passed and knock him down later in the hunt. No doubt the ram in the video is a good looking ram. If the shooter was not wowed by him, let him live another day and if nothing else in the next 20+ days looks better, go back and shoot him. Shooting sheep should not be about the score but more about does he have the look that the shooter is looking for. Good luck in the next few weeks and knock down a ram the shooter is happy with wrapping his once in a lifetime tag on.

20$ x 3 kids and a wife is a 100$ x 2 draws a year is 200$. Yes, at the end of the day 200$ isn't a make or break deal, but it is still extra money to stay the the same odds as everyone else... I will admit, to me the 200$ is not crazy significant, but to other families it might be. Any time you have to pay extra to stay at similar odds, I call BS. You will never make everyone happy. This is simply my opinion and clearly you do not agree with it. That is what makes America so great. You do not have to agree with me, but you should try to understand my position on this matter. Surely you did not come on a public forum and expect to sway everyone 11 posts in... -

It is pretty much extortion if they make an optional bonus point available for purchase. Does it increase the majority of hunter's chances of getting drawn? The answer is yes, albeit a very small fraction of a percent better odds. Point creep will be accelerated and we are inching closer and closer to the wealthy getting better chances of getting drawn. Again fraction's of a percent better odds in some cases and more in others. Just do not like the idea of selling "extra" bonus points. Community service and $ for the point would at least get some stuff done for them and improve habitat at the same time. -

How to price trophy coues deer

Nice find!! it really comes down to what someone is willing to pay. Some of the shed buyers have buyers that are looking for specific racks or sheds. I would contact them and they can give you an idea of what they think it is worth. -
Bret Prentice is who I have been using. He does great work and is overall a great dude! Game Trail Taxidermy (623) 670-0807

What kind of velocity are you getting with this rifle? I am debating building a 6.5 x 284.

lets talk effective distance for caliber/bullet weight

You mean to tell me the Creedmoor will not kill an elk at 2 miles? -
You will quickly learn that getting a coyote in a live trap is one of the hardest things to accomplish. Not saying it is impossible, but they are super intelligent when it comes to getting trapped. Their fur is rarely worth the time down here in the desert. Suppressed .22 would be a great way to get a few of them.

I will take one if one falls thru

I too have been really impressed with the Black Ovis Merino. Seems to keep me warm when I need it to, but also keep me cool in the heat.

Are there any decent bucks left in unit 21?
HuntHarder replied to 308Nut's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
This is a great hunt. I would easily say set your expectations on 150+ for the majority of the hunt. The hunt will only get better as the time goes on. I have noticed over the last few years that it seems the Whitetail have expanded their range into areas that I used to only see Muleys in. I know last year I was seeing Whitetail 5-1 in an area where I used to see Muleys 20-1. Good luck on the hunt and congrats on getting that tag. -
I have bought 2 silencers from silencershop.com. They had the best price I could find on both. They make the process as easy as it can possibly be. They have dealers who are set up with machines in their gun stores. This machine, takes your picture and fingerprints and sends them to silencershop.com. The hardest part of the process was setting up my trust, but even that was super easy, just took a trip to the bank to get notarized. Oh did I mention, there is no transfer fees when you go pick up your silencers. My wait time was about 9 months.

Unit 7 is a massive unit With Antelope spread out from north to south from east to west. Try looking further north and even into 7E. I have not heard of any die off. I know from my experience in the unit, the antelope that stay in the small meadows, often are in the trees right at sun up.

Which red dot for Ruger Mark IV lite (22/45 with top rail)
HuntHarder replied to n2horns's topic in The Campfire
I Went with the fast fire on my Ruger 22/45. I like it because it is very compact and does not say Vortex on it.- 1 reply

HuntHarder replied to hoghntr's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
You are a lucky guy. Seems like you get a tag donated to you every year. -
By this, ThomC means, he never leaves his mom's basement, so all of his hunting is done with his hands on the keyboard.
