Game and fish web site has really good advice on some location. Your running out of time! You need to get up there and scout.

JSR I sent you that information in 36 b for those coyotes. Pm his location and we will call it a fair trade he he

Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! So jealous! Now that I can put my anger aside of bagging 2 bulls at the same time in different location, sometimes it pays off to be in the right place with the right equipment, at the right time, and all the work that went into it. Great job guys!

Unfortunately I hated how that game ended dang cats!!!!!!!! But on the bright side good for her with her buck

Tell you what that is the jean poll I've seen in there. They always have a good solid fork then branch off small. I chased a a fork about the size of that buck but just a forky though. It was a good looking forky I must add

Last week I was down on my mule deer hunt. That first night it was a storm of coyotes and I can hear them harrasing the ranchers horse. Next day ran into a hunter that helping his older dad on his hunt. Right before we pulled up on them they just shot at a coyote. He goes on and explains he's been Glassing up a ton of them and was watching a few coyotes harrasing some deer. That's when he took the shot. That night same thing coyotes all over the place. Later on the hunt I get to a high point and started glass that morning and then it sounded about 6 of them just started up yelping and howling. I was looking frantically for them but I couldn't find them but I know they are there. Two years ago my brother hunted that same spot and he counted over 175 mule deer doe's. This year we counted up maybe 15 doe's. Not sure where they all went but I'm sure the yotes either pushed them out and probably ate a few. If your from Tucson and want a spot PM me I'll give my location. I live to far to do a stand.

Keep it up guys thin those guys out. I'm telling you there were deer everywhere 2 years ago and this year you just saw a few deer a day. I'm sure they ate all the fawns up.

Congrats

Mailed my in today. But it says on the game and fish site they won't look or start the applications till the 1 st of December . First time I applied for left over. This is correct right?

Some times it pays to be in the right place

We'll it's been 8 years since I last shot a bow and been bow hunting. We'll I'm Back!!! Bought a Hoyt Charger and man, bows are like computers the technology has come a long way. I went out shooting this morning for the first time in 8 years and was impresses with me or the bow. Hitting paper plates all morning at 60 yards and size of a fist at 30 yards. I'm heading down in January with a pig and deer tag in the 36's units and I shoot a 100 grain. But I'm out of the loop on archery equipment, what are some decent prices on decent Broadhead? Man I tell you it felt great shooting a bow again, smiles all morning

I guess I'm confused and now lost on this matter. If ft/lbs doesn't matter, with bullet energy, that doesn't really matter, isn't there some type of energy that is doing damage because of ft/lbs??? If I compare my .270 to my buddies 30-378 his ft/lbs is the same at 700 yards then my .270 is at 200 yards. They were rough numbers but to keep things simple that's were we are at. So it should be the same knock down power beside bullet size and design. But if you compare those bullets to a gelatin and see if what does more of some type of hydro shock to the inside I guess you can compare. So my question is this, and I'm having a hard time to put this into words; is there no knock down power behind the bullet or does it only compare to speed and size and bullet design on impact???????!

I think it's been over 15 years since I read cursive, but to answer your question yes it shouldn't penetrate as it is design Tomore so explode on impact. But I have read stories and seen pictures that some bullets didn't penetrate so well on javalina. But I wouldn't hesitate to use him on those pigs.

Biggest buck I chased with a bow was in 2005 January hunt was pushing 190 inch buck. Ever since then I've notice mule deer decreasing. And sadly I was busted by 3 does because I got up to 50 yards of him and couldn't get a shot set up.

Awesome great job

If we don't hear any good news this would be the 3rd year in a row with real poor success with mule deer in that unit.

I shoot 140 gr AB's with 53 grains of W760 in my Tikka T3 and it's sub-moa , but my rifle chrono'd at 2,985 fps. I use the set up for Coues but wouldn't hesitate to take that rifle elk hunting either. This is proof that every gun is different! I was shooting 53 grain and chrono it at 3,060 fps. Every others shot I would miss paper! That was 6 inches. I backed off a grain and it shoots like a champ!!!

Bass pro sale started Wednesday. I picked up a FoxPro Fusion 100 bucks off. Me and my brothers started a new family tradition, coyote hunting on thanksgiving morning. Sad to say I missed my yote and shot barley over his back. As for Black Friday I stay away from the crowds and use that morning to put up Christmas lights, then off to the Archery Range, then tonight some family volleyball game. Ohhhhh and I can't miss the ASU vs U of A game. Go Devils!!!!

Man those deer were hitting that water at midnight with that full moon. Has anyone else notice that almost all the deer hunts always start on full moons

Well I already bagged a antelope, in 2 weeks I have my mule deer hunt, and now I'm thinking about a spring long weekend hunt up in unit 10 for yotes. I hunted there last year up by tin city for cow elk, and helpled a friend scout for antelope. Great coyote country and from what I hear they are in abundance up there. I usually will call for them In 24b and 37b and found out they have a big impact on the goat herds during fawn dropping in the northern units. Does anyone usually know when fawns start dropping up here? And I hear calling yotes in spring times is usually different. I'm not the most Advid yotey hunter out there but I would really like a crack a them this spring!! Even with a deer hunt coming up I just keep thinking of the future hunts

I want this so bad. Why wouldn't G and F allow you to shoot from a truck, or spot lighte them ( just for yotes only). This would give us A tactical advantage and this would help out game and fish. I don't need that feel good feeling that I hiked in and shot that coyote. I feel good when it's dead. In the end it's one less antelope eater. Ohhh but when there are to many game and fish will hire out choppers to help eliminate them. That's government for you over spending too much, just give the private sector more freedoms to take care of the job and to save the government money.

Maybe my ADD mind cant read every word in the Regulation's or the Lawyer abbreviations that are in there. But I cant find a few things. My question is, is it not allowed to rifle hunt small game and varmints during a deer hunt. I thought it was for sure during an elk hunt its not allowed. I've been told that its ok to hunt quail during a pig hunt or deer hunt. Can anyone clarify this? Thanks so much

If I was hunting today I would have my tikka .270 140 grain accurbond, W760 (52 grain) 3,010 fps with a inch grouping at 200 yards. But I haven't harvest an elk yet, but my plans is to get a 300 win mag LR set up. I don't want to hack this thread but I've seen a lot of guys post the 300 WSM. What does that have that the 300 win mag doesn't?

I don't know how badly it will mess up the ecosystem but I wish those were living in our state and able to hunt them.
