  1. I am very happy that I have an antelope tag but I wish I had done a little more research. I used to live around there about 26 years ago and I new the area very well. I got in a habit over the last couple of decades of putting in for 3a as my second or third choice. I didn't realize how much land was sold off and how much development has taken place. I've been doing some scouting, and can't believe the amount of checker board private land is in there now. I have located a few nice bucks but can't believe they put 25 tags in there. I think I know now why they put the hunt back into October. There isn't near as many antelope that there used to be, so instead of cutting the tags, I think they just thought they would put the hunt back till after the rut. I may be wrong but I can't think of any other reason. That way they can add 5 tags and make more money. All that said I am very happy to be hunting antelope once in my life and I will give it heck. It was so hot yesterday my spotting scope was almost useless after about 10:00 am. We found several small bucks and a couple of nice ones. I still have another month to check things out.

    3a tag and now a little regret.

    Learn to read idiot. Where does it say I regret having the tag. I regret not doing more research. What a screwed up bunch of haters. Nobody asked for any sympathy. What post have you been reading? Good luck with this screwed up site. Same bunch of haters.

    3a tag and now a little regret.

    Hey "lancetkenyon", what part of "happy about having a tag" didn't you understand. I will have a great hunt, no matter what. I just can't figure out why they put the hunt back to October. They did that with a couple of other units also and nobody I talked with, can give me the answer. No matter the outcome the hunt will be great, especially the fact that it will be cooler in October.
  5. I would buy it in a second if it would fit a 2014 Ram 2500

    Elk-Rifle before Archery

    All of the complaining and e-mails make no difference at all. If they want to do it, they will. They pushed back several antelope hunts a full month without any input, or reasoning. They already put a muzzy hunt in front of the archers in unit 9, without any notice. So what makes you think they care about what anyone thinks.
  7. Will be taking him to the cabin this week. I had to put him on a wall just to look. I am very happy with the outcome. Thanks Jim.

    4th Gen Dodge Owners? Let's see em'!

    Sir Royal. I went everywhere trying to get my tpms re-programed and nobody could. I wrote RAM several times with no help. Then after writing one last e-mail to RAM about the safety factor and lawsuits they were going to get, having to run 80 lbs of air on icy roads I received a re-call notice in the mail. I didn't know what it was for but I took the truck in. What do you know I can put what ever air pressure I want in the tires without any alarms. You need to find out at your dealer. If you can't find anything I will go back to my dealer and ask what recall it was. It said something about the anti-lock brakes needing re-programed. All I know is that, I love my truck now. Dave.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you have to have your land posted no trespassing or no hunting if you want to keep people off?
  11. Does anyone know why some of the pronghorn rifle hunts were pushed back? I got drawn for my second choice 3a, and am really excited. I didn't even notice that it was pushed back a month until I got drawn. I have been putting in for pretty much the same units for almost 20 years and didn't even notice the change when I applied.
  12. Thanks. I'm happy as heck. It will be a little cooler for the hunt too. I am not upset at all. I just didn't notice. I've been waiting many years for a pronghorn hunt

    Unit 9 antelope tag after 21 years

    Congrats. I am 60 and just pulled my first tag. I have been trying for ever. I had 19 points and drew my second choice 3A. I'm going to go and really enjoy that hunt. Unit 9 is great. You are going to have a great hunt.
  14. Less than 2000 miles. 5 Firestone TransForce HT 10 ply 245/70 R17 mounted on 8 hole rims off of a 2014 Ram 2500. $500. 4 hub caps included. 928-402-9492 Globe.
  15. Every year it is something different. My license from last year has expired. I bought a new one over the counter. When applying for elk on line, my expired license number comes up and it won't let me change it. Am I the only one sick of this stupidity? They have got to be the most ignorant bunch of fools ever. It is a good thing they work for AZGF because they couldn't hold a job in the real world. I am sure putting in for a tag with an expired license number will work. NOT! I guess I'll use a paper application and waste a day to drive them down.
  16. I agree with lancetkenyon. Drop the online applications if you can't get a grip on how to do it. Must have hit a nerve on flatlander also. Tell me then how they have there act together and don't waste money.
  17. Oh they have the funding. They would rather waist it on introducing wolves into the state rather than to make things better for the people who fund most of their wasted projects.
  18. Nah. I am going to drive down and hand them in personally. I am getting where I don't trust any of them. It just gets frustrating. Every year it's something different. If they were a company they would have gone out of business long ago. As for Average Joe, he must be one of the incompetent ones on the payroll for it to strike such a nerve. He can call me stupid if he wants to, but facts are facts, and the truth must have hurt his feelings.
  19. The only problem is I already bought a new license a couple of weeks ago at a sports shop on my way out hunting. The form says to type my license number in but there is already my old number in the application and it won't let me type in the new number.
  20. I know you are but what am I
  21. Hey Average Joe suck on this
  22. Nah! Just blowing off steam. It just seems that it never ends with the amount of incompetence demonstrated by the Game and Fish. If you are going to do something, do it right, or just don't do it at all. I wish they would spend the money and hire someone with the ability to run the online process. I think who ever made their online application site is the same person who Obama hired to build his Obama care website. Take the money they are wasting on the Grey Wolves and pay someone with the experience to run their online program.
  23. I have been doing this for many years. I fire people who are this incompetent. Every year it is something different. Any one can make a mistake once in a while. It seems every year we have some sort of problem with the draw and the online system. I hunt other states and have never ever had a problem with their application online. We live in Arizona so I guess we get used to the incompetence.

    Absolute power corrupts, absolutely !!!!!!! This is what you get when there is no checks and balance. They answer to no one. If you think the public input is for real, I have some swamp land I would like to sell you.
