Great write up. I would take a metal detector in when you go back for the pick.. could be some old mine relics or even a stash of treasure.

That is a beautiful buck! Congratulations to your friend.

Love euro mounts. Always prefer something that looks dead on my wall.

Wow!! Friends up in 10 had the same problem. How was it as far as other hunters/pressure?

Has anybody tried minimalist shoes?

I was in 17a the last two days. Saw some nice bucks all swollen up distracted enough to stand still at 40 yards. No does with them though. To bad 17a is not open till january.

Buying ruger also helps the local economy and creates jobs in Arizona. Granted it is just a sweatshop that pays $9 an hour. I still love ruger products.

I must say I am blessed that my son loves hunting as much as I do. I never pushed it on him. Over the last two years he has proven himself as a hardcore little man. As an only child you could say he is spoiled, yet he is humble and would give the shirt off his back to another child in need. My only concern is by the time I'm done Christmas shopping I have realized that he has way better and newer hunting gear than me!! Soon I might have to borrow his gear haha! I wouldn't trade it for the world. I'm so glad my son would rather have a turkey call or a new pair of binoculars rather than the newest Xbox game. Shout out to all the parents out there who share the love of the outdoors with their children.

Treat the salt placed by guides who "help" everybody depending on how much they pay like a popular waterhole.. set up on the trail heading in and get the first drop..

Not sure what you were saying there. You are correct I misread the regs and 4 of the cow hunts are still there, just with fewer tags. Any elk tags changed to bull tags. They eliminated the concurrent non-Peaks hunt. Too bad.[/quote. I think people with ALOT of points saved up would be less than satisfied compared to other units.

I am more irritated that they added tags to early bull in unit 8. Reducing tags in a limited opp hunt can only make it better for those drawn...early rifle bull in 7E sounds like a crybabies dream as well.looks like the bull hunts are in the General section but the cow tags are still in the limited opp section. 4 hunts instead of 5. 40 bull and 40 cow tags per hunt. You HAVE to be in shape or the mountain will get you.

It's getting tougher and tougher to get tags.

Amazing ram! Did you get lucky or have you been buying bonus points since you were 10?

Should be easy. Don't put in for it personally. Let the flatlanders have it. Lots of deer. To many tags.

Looks like it's gonna be a great year for the lucky ones who drew tags this year. Amazing bucks. Getting the itch to trade my bonus points I have been saving for a December mule deer tag for a coues tag next year!!

Be careful. Prickly pear lowers your blood pressure. Some people should not consume it.

Best way to find prickly pear is to grab the shotgun and go Chase some quail.

Besides the fact that most trends start in California, I could care less what California does to its people.besides the ocean it's a tumor of our country.

I was thinking the same thing this weekend. Bulls were still making noise and the weather was alot warmer than expected.

It was more of a statement of how we are all guilty of casting judgement. I am a guero.

l know the feeling. heck my girlfriend came over in the trunk of a car when she was a baby. She has her citizenship and loves America. Got a few broken knuckles dealing with ignorant remarks about Mexicans. Probably get a few more. I get a kick out of the ones who dream of shootouts in border units. Then again I find country folk superior to city dwellers so maby I am guilty of classifying as well.

You talking like Yoda?Things that's did not happen the story in this thread

I was curious how the officer spoke with him..

So how did he get a tag and a license and fill out an application, if he could not read or write english?

I dont know about that, both hillary and donald are white. Guess im the butt thing.No your good. They are not white. They are yellow.
