    Covid, whos had it and how are you recovering?

    Wife and I both got it in January. It was like nothing I've ever experienced before. Night sweats, chills, difficulty breathing, bad shakes a couple of times and most food tasted BAD. We were advised to take vitamin D, zinc and aspirin while sick. It lasted 4-5 days and tapered off - except my lungs felt like they'd shrunk. It took me 5 weeks of pushing them gradually that they felt almost back to normal. I lost 10 #'s - which was ok with me. NOT a fun experience.

    Elk Draw

    Anybody else having problems applying for elk? I keep getting an error message that the page doesn't exist- after I fill out the initial info page and hit "add this applicant tab". This has been going on since yesterday. I've made 5 attempts with same result- even with a different device. I tried calling the Phx office yesterday and I was # 32 on the call list. Couldn't wait.

    Irony

    This home schooling time could be a good thing for parents concerned with the stuff their kids are being taught in public schools. Give them a dose of truth and reality, some discipline and structure in their lives. A small investment in time now could really set them on the straight and narrow. Am I being too optimistic?😳

    Walking in the dark to your stand...

    I made the mistake on a 10 day solo elk hunt of taking Pet Semetary with me for reading material!! I had the willies the whole hunt!

    AZ Black Rattlesnake color change

    The first one I saw was at Big Bug below Mt. Union. I was scouting on atv and it was on the road just moving along. Cool to watch.

    Gun Rights!

    I believe the bill passed in the House because of the Dem majority- best bet to stop it is contact our senators when it arrives in the Senate- All hunters and shooters NEED to join and support our gun rights groups. The dem/progs are taking our liberties one piece at a time-
  11. The incremental law/rule changes in hunting and gun regs are designed to eventually ban or restrict both. This is like the "frog in the pot of increasing heat". You don't realize what's happening until it's too late.

    Is it wrong

    I definitely sleep better outdoors- away from city noise.

    7 RM would be my choice

    Camera & stand thieves facing charges

    So even if you have your name and contact info on the items they would be considered abandoned?

    Where were you?

    Getting ready for our 6A archery elk hunt. I remember the sky was spooky quiet without the usual planes flying around during the hunt.

    Looking for a .243

    I have an old Remington 788 in .243 that I use only for varminting now, but I've taken several deer with it. For a cheap model it is an accurate, tack driving, low recoil machine. I love that cartridge. Good luck on your search.

    Maybe it is time

    I am an NRA life member and as much as I hate to say it- generally speaking 18 year olds today do not have the commonsense or maturity that an 18 year old did 10 years ago- not all but a lot. I know they serve in the military and in some states can buy alcohol. I don't know what the answer is but I think some politicians feel they have to give in a little to keep from being damaged politically. You can see all the brainwashed kids out screaming and protesting- they are the future voters- maybe we need to raise the voting age to 21
  23. I'm surprised no one brought up the discharge of arrows or bolts within the 1/4 mile stipulation. Does it only apply only if actually "hunting" ? You can't target shoot or chase rabbits and yotes in the river bottom with a bow? I remember there used to be archery bales set up at schools and parks.

    sledding

    you used to be able to sled/tube on the NAU football practice field- CAUTION- if icy in AM- very fast- my daughter fractured her face and eye socket- the fun ended there

    Where to camp and fish

    Salt River below Saguaro Lake is stocked with trout in winter- should be fairly quiet mid week.
