    We'd rather hunt hard than not at all.

    Cards are being hit! Who's going hunting?

    I saw and met quite a few father daughter hunting duos during my son's youth deer hunt last year. Loved seeing that. Maybe there is hope for the future!

    Hunters Ed field day question?

    Oh no! It just filled up since my first response. Hopefully you got him a spot. There were 6 left when I signed my son up which made it 5. Busy morning I suppose. But there is a waiting list for cancellations. And I'm sure there will be more. Looks like you will have to really watch that page.

    Hunters Ed field day question?

    Yes, they've done away with the waiver. Kids will have to take the online field day class within 90 days of passing the online class.

    I had to tell someone. My son is at camp Geronimo with his Boy Scout troop. I can't wait until he calls me back so to tell him the good news! Hurry up, kid!

    Drone usage for exploring/scouting??

    Yes. Arizona drone regulations require that you register your drone with the FAA and firmly affix the drone registration number to your aircraft prior to flight. Federal law requires that any small unmanned aircraft (drones) weighing more than .55 pounds and less than 55, be registered and marked with a registration number, either by registering online or by using the legacy paper based registration process. https://www.federaldroneregistration.com/arizona-drone-registration#:~:text=Yes.,(drones) weighing more than. On the topic, per AZGFD a drone shall not be used to locate wildlife beginning 48 hours before the opening of a big game hunting season...regardless if you take an animal or not. Arizona Game and Fish Commission’s consideration of Fair Chase issues A technology or practice that allows a hunter or angler to locate or take wildlife without acquiring necessary hunting and angling skills or competency. A technology or practice that allows a hunter or angler to pursue or take wildlife without being physically present and pursuing wildlife in the field. A technology or practice that makes harvesting wildlife almost certain, and/or the technology or practice prevents wildlife from eluding detection and/or take. Unmanned aerial vehicles — drones — are aircraft and subject to the same rules as other aircraft, meaning they cannot be used to assist in taking wildlife or locating wildlife during an open season; https://www.azgfd.com/hunting/fairchase/

    Tick Tock

    I'm sure they've fielded 100,000 phone calls about portal accounts, (that have nothing to do with the actual draw). I'm heard AZGFD may delay the draw until March 6th so they can update portal accounts, (that have nothing to do with the actual draw).

  21. I was told by a GW a few years back that I could have my wife build up bonus points and when my son turns ten she could transfer any game tag she's drawn for to him. So we did that and now that he has turned ten and has passed the Hunter Ed course I would like to enter her in the Elk draw on top of entering him for the youth hunt to increase his chances of being drawn. On the AZGFD website it says: Transfer from a parent, grandparent or guardian to their minor child or grandchild. A parent, grandparent or legal guardian holding a big game tag may allow the use of that tag by their minor child or minor grandchild pursuant to the following requirements: The minor child is 10 to 17 years old on the date of transfer; The minor child has a valid hunting or combination license on the date of transfer; A minor child less than 14 years old has satisfactorily completed a Department-approved hunter education course by the beginning date of the hunt; The parent or guardian must accompany the child in the field or, if a grandparent allows a minor grandchild to use the grandparent’s permit or tag, the grandparent, parent or the child’s guardian must accompany the child in the field. In either case, the adult must be within 50 yards of the child when the animal is taken. https://www.azgfd.com/hunting/tagtransfer/ I called AZ Game and Fish today to clarify if she had to be with him in the field and the woman said that my wife isn't required to be there and that I could take him instead. So my question is, have I misunderstood the wording on their website or is was the woman mistaken? She wouldn't be able to be in the field with him during his hunt because we have a three year old to care for as well. Does anyone have experience with tags being transferred to their children? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, TR0UBLE SH00TER

    Tag transfer question for anyone with experience.

    Pre or post-op?

    Tag transfer question for anyone with experience.

    Good stuff, man. We are really close and there is already unspoken rules about "What Mom doesn't know won't hurt her". I have a three year old son as well so my years in the field with them has just really begun. We camp a few months out of the year so my ten year old is very acclimated with being out in nature and he's very interested in survival techniques. But you can never be too safe, that's for sure. Thanks for the response.

    Tag transfer question for anyone with experience.

    Yes, that seems to be the case. Apparently Grandma Maude doesn't have to be in the field at all (thankfully, given her health restrictions...), another parent is fine.

    Tag transfer question for anyone with experience.

    I love to hear that kind of stuff man, it's really inspirational! My son has hunted squirrel, rabbit, quail and duck for two years. But now that he has a javelina hunt starting Friday I've never seen him more excited about hunting than he is to finally start big game hunting. We've been watching this hog for a while now:
