Spent a good part of the day tramping around 37B and didn't see anything of substance. Some old sign,but nothing fresh. Back at er tomorrow.

Wow db, did they take anything else?

PM sent azhunter. OK folks, the inaugural meeting is Monday Feb 21st. I'd love to see a handful of folks from this site. You don't need to be a member of Mission Community Church, or any Church, for that matter.

I'm spending Monday and Tuesday in 37B

Tony - I'm very sorry for your loss.

Due to availability of meeting space, we have moved our meetings to the 1st and 3rd Monday of each month. The first meeting is scheduled for February 21st. Contact me for more info!

There's a bunch of us over on the other board getting together http://www.arizonahuntingtoday.com/forum/s...read.php?t=6875

Lark - Enjoy your trip. I grew up next door, in New Brunswick.

OK all - we're working hard at trying to line up guest speakers, plan events, etc. It looks like we will meet the 1st and 3rd Thursday of every month. The 1st Thursday will be more focused on the regular business of the group and a Sportsmen's Devotional. The 3rd Thursday of each month will have a featured guest speaker, with a short meet n greet following. For now, we plan to have the meetings at Mission Community Church, from 7:00PM - 8:30PM. The Church is located at Power and Elliot in Gilbert. We tentatively have 3 family-oriented events planned for April, May and June. This group is not limited to members of Mission Church, or any Church for that matter. Stay tuned for more info.

Out of all the sites I posted this on, I figured I would garner the most replies here Anyway, we're stringing together some great ideas and things are moving along. We hope to start having regular meetings by late January or early February. Please let me know if you might be interested. You don't need to belong to Mission Church to attend. If any of you have previous or current experience in similar groups, I'm always looking for your ideas, suggestions, lessons-learned, etc. Thanks!

Still looking for a bow? I have a Ben Pearson Pride - 2006 but practically new. Never hunted, just shot to adjust, tune, etc. 27" draw length, set at 65 pounds. I know you had specific draw length and poundage in mind.

Great story - love how black he was! Yankee - hat part of Maine are you from? I moved here from Houlton

37B HAM. Am planning on using a handgun for the first time

mbiewer - there are a bunch of friends and I drew that tag. Havne't worked out the details yet, but I'm sure you're welcome to tag along if you want. Shoot me a PM

I have hunted 37B a lot in the past few years and am happy to report I didn't contribute to the population strain one iota. This is a great topic and I agree with the Terry and the others. There are some toads in that Unit though, I had a friend text me Friday saying he just knocked down a big 4x5

I feel your pain, a bit. I'm heading out tomorrow to spend a couple of days in 37B by myself. My wife is having a fit.

There's a few of us over at the Arizona Hunting Today forums putting in for 37B HAM with the intention of trying to make an outing or two out of it. If anyone wants to come along, let me know. Marshall

Thanks - I hunted all over 37B for about 5 years in a row. The only time I never saw pigs is when I was actually hunting LOL. I've found some mulie sheds, including a pretty big one. Love the Unit - it was my first taste of Arizona hunting

I just bought a .270 WSM I know that ammo can be expensive to buy, bit I am not set up to reload and I don't shoot much anyway. I shoot to sight it in, verify proficiency, check zero, etc. - I don't spend hours and hours and hours at the range. Are there any rounds off the shelf that work well for lions/bears/coues or even lions/bears/coues/elk? Curious as to what everyone uses. Thanks

Thanks everybody!

Cool beans - sent you a PM

I had someone contact me through my website looking for a drop camp in 46B for a sheep hunt. I don't know anyone offhand, so woud be happy to recommend some of the CWT sponsors. Shoot me a PM with your info. Thanks

Cool - thanks

This was on AzCentral.com yesterday, and judging by the comments it will be interesting to see if this passes. Even some of the comments by (supposed) hunters are way out there... http://www.azcentral.com/news/election/aze...s.html#comments

Great job - I added your link to my site
