I guess I'm confused! How does it track you on a downloaded map with no service?? Then again I'm not much of a techiii

Iny Meany mining Mo! Whatever which one you pick will work great

In the next month or so hit me up. My brother wants to try out his GS pointer out. But he's to scared to put him in the desert by phx. We would come down for the day if you want. Looks like in you pic not to much cactus

Story???? Stalk, time, days, morning, evening???

The mans gotta eat!!!!

If you ever go pointers get a Visial. Look identical to a GSP but with a light chocolate pure color coat. They are also known as the homebody pointer. They are happy where ever you are at. They are ever so slightly smaller than a GSP and there ears are slightly bigger than a GSP and less crazy than a GSP. But both are beautiful dogs

This is random advertising . I can only assume this is the owner of Carls custom meat

It's like a football game. Right after the game people talk about it. Months later no one remembers the game they just remember you won that game

Congrats

That's a awesome story! Congrats

On Labor Day I'm heading to unit 1. But I had the itch and wanted to do some bow hunting in a bad way. Thought about 24b or 24a but at the last second lets try Ord. I haven't been up there archery season yet. I knew there will be bow hunters but there were lot more cars parked up there. Almost every other ridge had a tree stand. First thing in the morning we picked out a ridge aways from the road and set off. Beautiful morning until I had a hunter flagging me down. Well crap! Did an about face and turned the other way right up the mountain. By the time we got to the top we spotted a nice buck and found a nice shed. Sad part it was going strait to that hunters stand. I probably ruined his hunt. Went about 300 yards found a salt lick and salt. Looked right ahhh a camera. Went up to the camera and said sorry. 20 ft away was the stand. Told my brother ok let's head out. This place has a stand every ridge. It was still nice, and we chased a buck for a short time and spotted a few does. But if you want a secluded archery hunt, without hikers, runners, and the scouts on the top to hike to the towers don't head there. Sorry to the hunters for interrupting their stand hunts. Didn't know you were there

I don't know if I could wait all day in one spot!! To much ADD! I'll stick to spot and stalk, but one of these days I'll man up to you guys and try the all day tree stand!

If you don't have a spot. Maybe start off around a water hole. And walk around. Or if you seen them in an area while you drove by get out and beat the bush. Always pay attention to their calls. As soon as I hear them call I'll try to pin point were they are at and just walk that direction. Usually that always works. If you don't here calls I still will come across a covey within in a mile or two of walking . This advace is only for gambles though.

Last week I just bought this 700 Remington long range 300 win mag, with a Bell and Carlson stock. I'm developing a load with 210 grain Bergers VLDs and I'm going to flute the bolt, put on a muzzle brake, and was thinking about fluting the barrel. It's a 9 pound gun and I don't mind hiking with the weight, but if it's not a big deal to flute and take a little weight off without losing accuracy then I'll do that. Should I flute? Pros and cons? Best place to machine it? And how much to flute a bolt, barrel and muzzle brake?

Actually in a third party contest Ford won the easier ride! Also easier ride with a trailer connected on a dirt road. Won the 1/4 mile up hill, and 0-60 pulling. In 2015 they changed the breaking so it stop just as fast as the chevy. When they did the 12 mile up hill in Colorado Chevy did pull away a whole truck and trailer ahead. But we don't have anything that big in Az. Ford won in most category's. Dodge did win the down hill breaking. As usual Dodge is dinoed out to handle the heavier load but chevy and ford still best it in all towing categories. For the 2016 model Ford added or is planning on another gear for the tranny so chevy won't beat them again on the hill. The ford 6.7 made by Ford is done right! My business partner got one! My old 6.0 will take a 12k pound trailer up,those hills pushing 65 and slowing down to 55 by the time I get to the top. He took the same load 75 mph from start to finish and said he could of pushed it more if he wanted to.

Hard core

These are my favorite stories

Cool

I even parked in an area where it's really not even a good parking spot. Looked at a ridge over a 1/4 mile and said let's go on the other side of that and start working are way out. I didn't see any hunter either. Just lots of parked trucks, camps and only hunters in tree stands 3 ridges over. So yeah I hike! Sounds like you found the right spot.

Best of luck

Trophy !!!!

I'm usually under the impression that most people head north or toward the pines during ealry archery season. It won't be till a couple weeks until I'm in the pines but I'm getting so anxious I'll probably go hit 24b 24a Saturday morning till 8:30 in the morning just to get out and do it. I used to do that 10 years ago but haven't since. How many achers are hitting the hot desert this season?????

^^^^^^ agreed

How often do we hear rifle hunters shooting each because they didn't have a vest. Most accidents are self inflicted, or their friend next to them. The number is extremely low. Now to help each other see each other does make since a little. But I'll quote and agree with what another CWT member said about this same topic "so you don't let them see your honey hole". I've hunted here my whole life and never really had a problem with it. Only time I think we should is while bird hunting.
