CatfishKev

2 and 3 years ago the powerlines had a fair amount of activity during the youth hunts. Last year you could tell that forest service had mowed them all down in the areas we had hunted and seen elk the couple years prior. It was a complete ghost town compared to the years before. The kids in camp had a real tough year last year I think in large part due to the thinning of these areas. My question is, once an area is cleared how long does it take before native food sources regrow to a point where they become a feeding area again for elk and or deer?

I just threw up in my mouth a little

Wow! I'd like to see the quality of a stripper that only cost $7.50 per dance.

Don't know. I guess either way with the recent storm it should be ok

I bet a high percentage of cats are killed the same day a tag is bought. Coincidentally.

I think like $15

I've never killed one, good thing there not expensive.

Killed a cow with my 10 year old son on an otc hunt once. No pack frame and was only my second experience dealing with one in the field. Let me tell you it was BRUTAL!. Killed it on Christmas eve and it literally took all day to get it out and back to camp. Cool thing was cooking some backstrap steaks over the fire that night my boy said "if I died tonight I would die happy". One of my most cherished memories.

Too many unknown variables to answer from an outside perspective.

I have a couple kilos of primo stuff I need to pick up around 17 and the 101 and get down here. Anyone making a trip already?

Dang immigrants have made it all the way to Payson!

And if crap really hits the fan you can bust open those tacos and use the lens to start a fire to warm up that frozen granola bar. Kidding aside, lots of good info in this thread. Pillow cases make great game bags unless you carry your kill kit on your back then lightweight is key. Also as mentioned you can sleep warm without spending buku bucks. Comfort is king when it's cold out. If your cold when your out or sleeping it becomes crappy quick.

Indeed I am. Buck looks good too!

Got my cargo to Sierra Vista. Thanks Daniel (muledeerarea33) for potentially risking your life by going into the wrong backyard to pick this up for me! I'm glad you did not get shot! And thanks Dennis for the hook up. He looks good above the fireplace. Hopefully I'll get my fish tank fire buck back soon to keep him company.

What? Texas javelina don't stink?

Contact rebel76. She can show you where to hunt rare deer mules.

Here the link to the rokslide forum.. great deals right now on cold weather bags, puffy pants, down jackets. Also check out raise.com and activejunky.com for more ways to save money on gear. https://www.rokslide.com/forums/forums/gear-deals.108/

27 is big country, a pair of 15s would be better to glas off a tripod with. If you get a havalon (I like the Gerber version) get a pair of cut resistant gloves off of Amazon. Make sure you know what your bullet drops are going to be at that different altitude. And get some good game bags. Start checking camofire every morning, they regularly have game bags and good boots for sale. Also check rokslide forum under gear deals daily.

NO!

That's just not fair man, right after you bought those big eyes. Hopefully the deer draw is nicer to you.

That's hurtful. And to think I actually liked your 2 previous posts

Riiiigghhhhtt....

Oh I get it now. You were insinuating my wife. Lol, thats funny. She's totally not into fags.

Only my son is home when I'm at work. Fag.

Your coming out on the 13th?
