Two pairs of binos for sale. Both brand new in box. Received as an exchange for a warranty claim after I bought some Swaro's. $600 for 15x56 $300 for 10x42

Def a GPS tracker. Im not saying the hunter got an special info related to its location from it but those sheep were def used to human interaction and not too concerned.

Call me a hater but I thought it was strange the story of a friend that drained his bank account for his buddy to draw a sheep tag with dismal odds somehow pulls it off to complete his 29/29 animal for a north american slam. Then they go and shoot a world record collared sheep that seemed like the herd would walk up and eat out of your hand.

Our family pulled 2 goulds tag somehow. 14 and 19 points.

Results are up.

Lol making a good case to get someone here to buy your house. .

Could you point me in the direction of a $1500 goulds tag? Every goulds hunt I've seen are $2500+

I listened to their commission meeting where their biologists made a suggestion to lower the limits and shorten the seasons and only two commissioners voted for it. The main reason one commissioner gave was that it would be too hard to let everyone know the regs changed and people booked guided hunts and it would mess them up. One of the commissioners that voted for the change was pretty upset and told the others they were being irresponsible when the biologists were telling them they needed to change something or there was a chance some areas would lose all of their quail. The one that refused to budge and was insistent on the whole guide thing was Goughnour. He must own a quail guiding outfit or something the way he refused to even consider it. Funny thing was this was after some meeting in May where they asked their biologists to provide more accurate data on bird numbers and then to bring it to them if they thought the quail were in danger and so the biologists did a bunch of extra work and brought them the numbers and half of the commission told them they didn't like their data and numbers so they weren't going to consider it lol

My brother got hit for a Gould's tag with 14 points. 29/30 or 31.

Is that a crack in the fore-end?

Check out visible. It is through Verizon so uses the same towers. I pay $35 a month and have had no issues.

Last year was Oct 15th, but the deadline was almost an entire week earlier than this year. I would guess it is going be around the 20-21st of October this year.

There's a youth hunt in 4b?

If he is a resident he can do his hunter safety all online and no field day required. If non resident he will have to find a field day to come down to. Or he completes a hunter safety course in the state he is in if possible.

Funny we as hunters think the elk are ours for some reason. Everyone has a right to enjoy them as much as the guy that waited 20 years for a tag. Does it suck? Yeah, but dealing with others comes with the territory on a public land hunt. If I want to go chase some bulls and get some video or pictures because it's fun to me I'm doing it. Obviously if I know someone else is actually on the bull I'm chasing I'd back off but other than that I'm having a good time.

Was sonora as bad as Arizons for rain? Curious how the growth will be this year.

? Lol Noone said all the elk hunters just packed up and went home. There are still bulls being killed, but the fact remains this rut is the worst in many years, if not ever.

It will go down in history that the rut of 2025 was the worst many have ever seen. Hopefully not a trend.

Just know the majority of the best guides are going to be booked up. Ensure whoever you use isnt just going to throw you out there with someone that doesn't know what they're doing. Clay Bundy would be my only choice but highly likely he doesnt have a spot.

Word around the campfire is Hunter Weems was raided by game and fish, as well as several of his guides. Anyone got more details?

Found a dead one picked completely clean but had to have died or been killed within the last month or so. No sign of an arrow around but give me a rough idea of what you thought he scored and a location and I'll let you know where he is and you can do what you please with it.

Nah

"Doctor of Medicine with the appropriate practice and or specialization to address applicants disability...." Who the heck decides what that means? What's appropriate? And what counts as specialized?

Can anyone confirm if the only doctor allowed to sign off is a D.O. or Orthopedic specialist? Or do MD's count? The proposal showed D.O. and ortho only.

They've made it pretty severe on them lately in that if they lose their license they cant have anything to do with anyone that is guiding, can't have wife take over their business etc, cant help others in the field while revoked. So guides have a lot more to lose now than they did a few years ago.
