I only put one choice

I've never drawn a non- resident tag before 🤷

I guess it's a deer tag

I do. But sheep is like $1800 for me

I got hit for $300. Doesn't make sense

All units have roads but the Prieta is unique in that you have to park a LONG ways from the sheep and then walk in on roads across the flats. I can't get beyond that. Sorry.

It would kill me to have to walk those roads in the flats knowing they were drivable. If I'm going to walk i wanted it where nobody can drive. Main reason i never applied for the Cabeza Prieta.

Maybe he didn't like the smell of coffee

I recently switched to Benchmark with 165- 178 grain bullets. Great success.

Bravo Americano in Globe is excellent. Best I've had in AZ. Last great pizza i had was at East ramp wood fired pizza in Fairbanks while waiting for the mail plane to Bettles to bear hunt. It's on the East ramp of airport if you go north.

Funny guy

I deer hunt a lake in that unit. I saw 12 bears in 1 hour a couple of years ago. Some spots are thick. The fall hunt is tough with short daylight hours, no salmon left ( usually) and thick brambles. I have a spring tag on the other side of the island.

Funny thing is, I didn't apply for 22!

I'm sitting on max points and until i understood the draw i wasted a lot of years trying to draw 22🤷

Must have been a double charge is only thing I can think of

As soon as the pear and turbinella Oaks are on they're much easier. Same is true of the manazitas.

There are no 9 foot sows FYI. I live in Kodiak and i carry a Glock in 40 S&W. I did have a model 35 blow up in my hand last August on n grizzly hunt but i was shooting a caribou thank goodness.

Spring is so much different than fall that you can't hardly compare them. Food is scattered in spring. Hard to target them like fall. I've seen them move to new mountain ranges come fall. Last spring bear i killed was feeding heavily on a desert plant. His scat was pure green and pungent like the plant. He was very close to his den also. Good luck

No such thing as a fur- friendly 243 load. You will lose fur more often than not.

Wasn't there like 170,000 more applications than last year? I didn't get an easy tag!

NICE

I wonder how the sheep are fairing with the big fire in the Superstitions right now. I remember when the Wallow fire killed a LOT Of sheep!

I get the impression they don't expect it to stop until the can contain it at 88/188.

Looks like the whole unit is going to burn.

What is the story this year for the desert sheep. A lot of big ones were killed last year, any left? I have max points and want to apply for the best units but I have heard conflicting reports of Pneumonia, blue tongue and so forth. I am looking at 22 and 24b. Anyone know why they have a separate hunt just for the wilderness? Wouldn't 24BS cover all that too and more?
