DUG

7W is my favorite elk unit. I had my first rifle tag soup on the bull hunt back in 2021. The day before the hunt, I saw 2 bulls feeding 150 yards from the truck. They never looked up. I really believe they know when a hunt is on. Between me, my son, my wife, my girls, and some friends, we've taken about 20 elk over 30 years in 7W. And to answer your question, yes, some years seem weird.

So sorry to hear this. Prayers up to the family.

Congrats young man! That's awesome!

That saguaro in the background is going WTF are all these people doing here? Waiting patiently for pics of hunt.

Congrats!! That's awesome!!!

My nephew was able to arrow and tag a bull coming into water the Tuesday of the archery hunt in 23. His brother has the late rifle tag today in 23 so hoping to hear good news. He did say bulls were getting harder to find.

He does. Right after his hunt is over.........😑

Congrats! What an exciting experience for her. I miss those junior deer and cow elk hunts. Fun times!

You and your crazy mountain lion stories........😉 And congrats to your nephew on his deer!

I lost a knife in 1986 in 23 on a deer hunt. Schrade fixed blade. Probably a little rusty by now. Good on you for trying to find the owner.

Congrats on an epic hunt! Wonder if that goes on the Kia's Carfax? lol Your kids will be telling this hunt story for years to come.

Congrats! Great bull 1st day or 11th day!

Awesome bull! Congrats!!

Sweet! Great bull!!

Great photos Doug!! I follow a couple of IG photographers and that 1st and 3rd pic seems to be the big guy this year. It's amazing how those elk take over the town sometimes.

Didn't you have an FJ? still have it?

Also shoots 45 long Colt and .454 Casull along with the 460 magnum round. Good luck with sale! Awesome revolver!

Congrats on the tag and good luck!!!

I'm up to 25 points.......Still got a ways to go unless luck kicks in before that.

Buddy of mine in Sun City sent a picture of his 1st WW sighting March 18. When I lived in Glendale it was usually about 1st week of April.

Any details of his hunt you could share? Was he successful? He get a good buck?

Anybody know anyone who drew from this last year? Or is it the 1st year of this?

Just got notice of a data leak. CWT.com has appeared in the data leak. Might want to change your password.

I believe G$F is copying what New Mexico does. Lot of complaints about the app not working correctly (NM). Still baffled about having to tag it physically since it's on your phone. I guess it's so Wardens can tell whose animal is whose in big hunting camps????

Seems to me Etag would be more useful if you still didn't have to affix an actual tag/ tape with confirmation number on it. Confirmation number is on your app. that you used to Etag it. Why isn't that good enough? Show the number to the taxidermist/meat processor in order to get processed. It's all on your phone.
