Heat

Actually got a letter in the mail notifying me of the Closure due to the fire. Was up scouting last weekend and plenty of people clearly didn't get the message or didn't care.

We have used Miller's Southwest on two of our animals and have no complaints other than having to go to Quenn Creek to get our meat. No delivery to Yuma but the convenience of them being right there in Forest Lakes makes it worth it for us.

I like using the Avenza in conjunction with the MVUM. Woks off the GPS and can tell you where you are on the map. Good enough for getting around in the truck but wouldn't use it for precise locating. That is what I use my Garmin for.

This one will probably top them all. A couple days into my 2012 Unit 1 Archery bull elk hunt, I set my bow down on the ground leaning up against the front right tire of my truck. Guy comes down the road on a quad and we get to talking. Mentions that he is done and pulled his camera off a little spot up the ridge. Well after he left I jumped in the truck to check it out real quick and backed out onto the road. Realized I forgot my bow, but forgot it was next to the tire. Pulled back in and ran over my bow! Of course saw a nice 6x6 under 30 yards that evening with no bow to shoot. Bought a backup bow (recurve) almost immediately after getting home. Here's your sign! What do I win?

Way to get it done man! Great pronghorn buck!

Meat in the freezer! Of course everybody wants to shoot a big one, but our family loves the meat too much to pass on any ethical shot opportunity. Good luck to all of you with elk tags this fall!

Caribou is where its at!

Anybody know the status of the Government Fire burning between Government Prairie and Sitgreaves Mtn? Last thing we need is more area closed by the Forest Circus. FYI the whole Kendrick Mountain area is closed from the Boundary Fire and won't open until the middle of October. Anybody want to come right out and admit whether or not they plan on adhering to the closure? Had some plans for that area and planned on getting in there after it opened but that won't be until after our early archery hunt. Back to the drawing board. If anyone wants to chat 7W via PM please message me!

We got lots of hail in late July one day on my buff hunt. Was in my shorts and sandals after getting a shower down at the Park. Didn't even make it back to camp and we were trying a stalk on the herd that was moving north out of the Park. Learned that day that wool socks DO keep your feet warm even when soaking wet walking through slush puddles! Moral of the story is to be prepared for anything on the Kaibab!

This is me 365. Maybe a notch or two down once in a while. Used to be nice for hunting but since the silver came in a few years ago I think its worse. Can't turn back now!

Try to find fleece lined. Dries a lot faster than flannel if it gets wet.

Point Loma Seafoods down near the water off Scott St. There is another place that is bigger up on Morena Blvd Friars Rd/I-8 area but I can't remember the name.

Great bull! Big congratulations on a well earned trophy!

Pics?

Same year make and model and I am on my third after two warranty replacements. This one has done pretty well but is starting to go too. Lights on the heater temp area are going. Driver side is out. 178K miles.

Used the voucher last spring to acquire the Barnes for my buff hunt. Great results. Got the ammo directly from my Regional office with the voucher. Most of them should have common calibers on hand. Might call to double check at your location but I know this was the case in Region 4.

Call them. My experience in 43b the sheep move quite a distance from most of the game waters once the season roll around. For the 43B guys there is a lot of sheep habitat not on YPG to look at.

Congrats on your bison! Mental challenge for sure. At day six I was just getting warmed up.

My experience was closer to yote, jmall, tombharvey than the OP but good on him for warning people who think they can go up there and do their own thing. Russ' nephew Cody was there with us most of the time and he is a great kid who worked his butt off to help me. Russ was in and out of camp along with his son. Other than 500 lbs of salt and C note each for Cody and Jacob I didn't pay Russ a dime. I was bound and determined to get mine and was indeed successful with two days left to go. I am grateful for all the help Game and Fish and the Jacoby family provided me with this hunt.

The whole site is offensive according to the federal government. Why you might ask? Because it falls under the categories of guns and sport hunting. Cussing should be the least of our worries but last time I checked nobody besides Amanda owns the site so it is her prerogative if she wants to censor your language.

There are about 5 or 6 million reasons why I would never live in Maricopa county. That is one.

Not sure about the tracks, but I do know a hippie foot when I see one!

Went fishing with family at Dogtown yesterday and on my way out had a massive coolant leak on my truck. Its stuck in Williams now, no mechanic till Monday. Any thoughts or suggestions on helping me get home to Yuma ASAP with my truck?

Thanks for everything guys! George Otero out of G & M Tires in Williams helped me get it fixed. Had to go in to Flag for parts. Ended up water pump was shot. Not all was a loss however! Fish were biting good and all the kids caught fish. My daughter's Frozen rod was the hot stick. Soak time of less then five minutes and it would get bit! Friends kids all caught their first.
