I shoot easton axis 340’s with a Zwicky 110gr two blade. Total arrow weight 464grs. Has 17 percent foc, comes out at 265 fps out of my bow. Use the same setup for both deer and elk.

Won’t use the springerville shop, myself personally. But there is one more guy in show low. He’s by the porter mountain steakhouse. He does good work.

There’s a guy in alpine that does it.

Where are you located. If in Tucson joe reed at lawasons gun shop.

Have one and works great. Very little powder variation. Less then my Hornady powder measure. Lot all my handgun and 223 ammo on it. The trick is to weigh ten dropped charges and take the average weight, to adjust the powder measure.

There’s a trailer park by tombstone Arizona that’s pretty good.

Don’t look by Vernon cheaper land but full of labs last time I was there looking at land. Also check out springerville and eager.

Don’t have his business number. Haven’t talked to him in a while. Had a difference of opinion and parted ways. Doesn’t mean he doesn’t due good work thou. Still would have him due my work thou.

I have Chris ledoux’s cd old rode songs. I believe that’s what it’s called. It’s my go to when I go hunting. As soon as I hit dirt or leave the house for a day hunt that cd goes in the CD player. As far as driving songs I have hank sr and jr, wille , Waylon Charlie Daniels, Tom Russell, Chris ledoux , the doors plus many others. Can’t stand rap , hip hop, or most modern country. Prefer the old classics in country and rock.

If you lived in Tucson I’d say lawasons. But why didn’t the gunsmith you picked it up from due the trigger work.

Always use oil with the wool. Brass 0000 wool is better then the steel in the same grade if you can find it. Pachmyer makes a good replacement pad. I myself have used there declerator pad for years now.

My brother in law owns a landscaping business in Mesa. It’s called the landscape company. Unfortunately I don’t have his phone number but I’ve seen his work and portfolio he does good work.

Like I stated earlier but do to work and recent surgeries I am unable to hunt as much as I’d like. If I had the desire or ability to hike in farther I’d look at mystery ranch or k u i u or one of the other top packs listed here. But I would have to justify the price just like a lot of other people. Right now it’s a want not a need. But I’ve been researched packs for quite awhile now in search of something better. Mystery ranch or k ui u gets my vote if I decide to get a new pack.

Same here. When I get something down I take a load out with the badlands 2200. Then go back in with the external frame pack to haul out the rest. Cheaper then a 600.00 pack I’ll use twice a year.

Yes. That’s how I restored my dads first shotgun he bought. Also how we brought the deep bluing out on guns we blues in the shop.

I use 4 ought steel wool or brass wool same grade to remove light surface rust. Montana cleaning solvents and pledge or fl it z gun wax on blues guns.

I run a buck 110 holds a edge but pain in the butt to sharpen. A outdoor edge big game for skinning a lightweight Ferber pack saw and a cheap fixed blade for breaking in the field. But mostly due everything with the buck 110. In fact just sharpened it for the upcoming hunts. After two years and numerous animals later. I run a sharping steel in between uses. As for a sharpening tool I use a Lan s k y a sky diamond stone and a homemade leather strop. But will be going to razor edges stones next year.

I agree with what you teachers above said. I’ve had a few good teachers thru out my school years. But just like anything the few bad apples ruin it for the rest of the people. I myself chose a different job then teaching or working for the game and fish because of the low pay. You spend all that money on a bachelors and masters degree to make under 30,000 dollars. Plus have to get post certified for game and fish. So you’ve got to be doing it cause you like it, because the money is not there. Arizona has one of the lowest salaries for teachers in the country.

I have a badlands original 2200. Like it a lot for the little packing I due. I myself have been looking at mystery ranch or badlands ox pack. But a little pricey for what little i do with my pack. I use a external frame pack to haul meat out. Similar to the camp trails freighter frame.

I know where that part of the river is. Like I said earlier drop down by west or east fork campgrounds for Apache trout. That’s all they stock their thur the summer.

I’ve caught 12’’plus brook trout out of streams in the white mountains. But it’s a heck of a hike in and out. But know with them poisoning every thing up there they probably aren’t there anymore. Trophy hunter if you’re looking for brown trout don’t bother with the west fork by the Rez. There’s better spots but it’s a heck of a hike in. Apache trout try west fork campground.

Yes but the Rez does proper fire management also not just grazing. Go up by pinetop they have a example of a properly managed and in properly managed forest. Plus how many people can pay upwards of 500 dollars plus just for a cow tag. Let alone a bull tag.

You hit that nail on the head.

You forgot the invasive beetle killing the ponderosa pine trees.

Blame your federal government. Haven’t done proper fire management for years. Go check out the wallow fire in the white mountains. Just waiting to burn again with all the fuel present.
