Once you use a travel trailer your not going to look back!! Soft bed, hot shower, running water as long as you bring enough ,and the ability to bring and cook what ever you could possibly want. Make sure you rent one with a generator for power .

My dad's buddy got a 6a muzzleloader cow tag so hopefully my dad drew the same hunt . They put in separate . I didn't get drawn so I'm just a helper and a driver on this one.

Thank you Eli for the various ammo for the kids giveaway . I do believe there is now a few hundred 22lr ,and 20 gauge ,and 4 boxes of 7-08 . Each winner will have a good start with there new guns.

After looking at several models for the kids giveaway . I did like the ruger american in there go wild edition . It has alot to offer adjustable trigger ,scope rail, muzzle break standard 5/8 24 pitch ( suppressor ready ) and cerakoted. I will say don't under estimate the axis line . After re- working the trigger spring on my buddies wife's gun with a decent scope and some hand loaded barns 140s the gun shot a 3 shot group in one ragged hole.

First week of September

Thank you to cwt member Eli for your generosity with the donation of several boxes of ammo for all the kids guns.

I do like the idea!! I'm sure running the site is expensive for Amanda and I can always use any donations for the kids. I will say there are some really great people on this site that see the importance of getting kids out in the woods . I do thank everyone for there help and donations . I will continue to do what ever I can to help kids get out hunting.

Had a run in with my neighbors dogs a few years back .I was unloading stuff outa my 4 runner and heard a dog run up behind me . Looked and it was a weiner whiner that's what my kid calls them . Figured no big deal as the dog left. Then I hear another and it's a pit bull and the weiner now both barking and aggressive. Went shot my gun is in the house. Was able to scare them off and went inside to call cops . Was told there in route . About 30 minutes later I go out to close the back of the car and the dog chased me into my garage till I stopped and drew . Hit the Damm dog in the head with the end of the gun . Almost shot the dog. He turned and ran . So I call back and tell them I'm fixing to shoot the dog . Cop shows up with in minutes. Met him at the end of my driveway . He asked where isthe dog and I pointed down the street . As he went down the street the pit charged the car and almost jumped in . He was able to use lights and siren to get the dog back in the yard and closed the gate . Beat on the door and told the neighbors I almost had to shoot there dog . On his way back he said I can't believe you didn't shoot it. I asked what they would charge me with if I did and got discharge in city limits and animal cruelty. I keep a big can of bear spray in the garage just in case .

It's on page 3 of the post above .

Any kids that get a tag any tag is a legit hunt and most guys are happy and willing to help . You on the other hand crapped on the young lady .Then you come back and say due to her age it makes her a legit hunter. Some balls!! I don't know you or trophy never met either of you but trophy has a valid point. You still sh#t out that jealous comment and still don't own up to it.

Elk draw bump . Kids are going to need gear to hunt.

My dad's buddy from Texas got hit . Hopefully they have the same hunts. Good news for me is an open invitation to hunt his place in texas for 🐖.

13 bucks for your entry and the opportunity to do it all again next year like me is something. Just not what we that didn't get drawn looking for.

Well atleast my dad pulled a elk tag . So either 6a muzzy or the 6a general.

Nothing yet but sure slow going on the hits so far . Way more posts about hits the same time of day last year.

I've got a box missing 10 I was testing and tho screaming fast the gun liked the 140 better . Pm me with where to send them and I'll get them in the mail . I'm in gilbert and I do believe your in Tucson. Free of course .

71 kids and counting so far . With the elk draw rapidly coming there is still plenty of time to get them in.

Friday bump

After looking thru my buddies vortex scope on his pig gun . You could see the center of the scope was OK but when you got to the edges it got mudded up quick. Idk what scope he is running in there line but said it was a few 3 or 4 hundred bucks . When looking thur my nightforce atacr he questioned the logic in spending good $$$ on glass . I guess it's all about personal preference and what your goals are with the gun .

Great value guns !! Shot my first bull with one of these . Glws.

Way to go!! Wish my old eyes would let me see that far again. That's a heck of a shot with a iron sighted pistol.

Yep they have a limit on powder but no limit on black powder. So someone could buy it all . I try to only keep 2 containers for myself and usually have one or two on hand for those hunters in need and offer them for what I paid at the time . If there wasn't a run on it every time it hit the shelves the prices might stabilize and not be so high.

Thanks to the group of hunters working the ridge next to us . I was able to take this pig at less than 20 feet. We were working one side of the draw and they were on another every so often id glass up to see what they were doing and saw them guns out and went back to looking down our side . I just happened to look back up and saw them frantically waving and pointing. I picked up my 7-08 and worked down less than 10 feet and there they were . A big sow and two little ones came up and crossed the top. Behind them was another group and i got a shot 1st one hit back due to pigs moving but anchored the pig there . The follow up shot did the trick. My buddy got a hail marry last day last few minutes we could hunt shot . Working a high draw we had glassed the weekend before the hunt and saw pigs in .We didn't see them this time so I said hit the call and it got them running up the draw in front of us. He shot and missed the first group . I figure we are done but hit the call again and another group came out and up . At 167 the shot hit its mark. 3 hours later we were loaded up and on our way to camp. I got home at 10 pm Monday and was supposed to be up for work at 11 to start my day at midnight on Tuesday . I just took a extra day and called it good.

Love my optima in my jeep going on 3 years . Wish I could find them for my diesel truck when the batteries hit the sh# t. Both times were back in 6a way back in the unit . Can't seem to find them when the truck needs them and for the cost of batteries in Payson I'd hate to replace them just because.

Way to go . Congrats
