    New Mexico Credit Card hits for Elk?

    I'm not going to know what to do if I get drawn. My hours at work and pay have been cut since I applied. I'll still go but probably not for the entire season like I hoped. But, I have to get drawn 1st. I got the E-mail last week saying to make sure the credit card you applied with is still valid etc.etc.

    CO Vacation

    Great pics! We have about the same vacation planned as you just did. We are going in July and even going to see the D-Backs play at Coors field. And more than likely driving up in our White Sequoia. How long did you stay up there? Any other places you recommend going? We will be up there about 8 or 9 days.

    2009 Bull Elk

    My wife will hold out for something decent. ( 5 point or better). She already said she won't shoot a spike. My son will probably get buck fever and start shooting at the 1st bull elk he sees. ( It's his 1st bull tag) My daughter will hopefully shoot the 1st cow that stands still long enough for her to get off a clean shot. I wil be holding out for the biggest cow I see and hopefully take 1 shot from my bow.
  4. Pm'd you. Wondering if this has shipped yet? Let me know.

    Original hunt

    I'm gonna try that on my next Coues hunt......
  7. My son is doing a High School internship with G&F. He got to go on the trip to see the baby Eagle get banded at Lake Pleasant. Here's some of the pics he took. Rappeling down the cliff. Here is the Dad eagle. He was just hanging out. The Mom was not as reserved. She was flying overhead screeching and wondering what was going on with her baby. Here's the Eaglet The view down to the boat. He said they had quite a hike. They were also joined by a group of Home-schooled kids.

    Guide License

    If you get your guide license is it valid until Dec. 31st 2009 or is it one year from issue date?

    @ opening morning birds

    Good job on the gobblers, sounds like you had a great time.
  12. Nice gobbler and way to go Mom for helping and videoing.
  13. I've seen them at the bottom of the Grand Canyon by Phantom Ranch. They are almost tame.
  14. Very nice! Way to go.

    One of the worst types of posts to make...

    Sorry for your family's loss. I've had to put 4 Labs down over the years and it never gets any easier. Especially when the 4 year old says "Daddy why are you crying?" Hopefully when you are ready another one will come along and be a part of your family again.

    Bluegill bite is on

    My son is doing an internship with G&F and Saguaro is full of Yellow Bass. They did some electro fishing last week and one spot near the dam was full of Yellow Bass. They are in Canyon also.

    Random Elk season question

    6A has a muzzleloader bull and cow hunt at the same time. Or maybe it was one of the L.O. hunts for any elk.
  18. Saw my 1st white-wing of the season today. I usually see them 1st week of April. Our subdivision used to be an orange orchard so we get a lot of white-wings that show up every year.
  19. I got my customer # ok, but where is the app. for applying online. I can't find it. I see the one in the proclamation but not online. Can someone direct me to where it is? I'm new to this so it may be right in front of my face and I don't know it. Edit, I just found it. Trying to get used to NM calling it an elk license versus AZ calling it an elk tag. Edit, I don't think I found it. I found form 3 but I don't think it is right for applying for elk.

    What to do?

    OOOps, I just saw this was in the bowhunting section. My bad. We have had plenty of rifle elk tags in 7W. Only have had 1 bow tag. I shot a cow with my bow in 06. For bow hunting at that time I would sit water. Or try to find a movement pattern and try to intercept them. You'll need a lot of luck.

    What to do?

    Jeremy, 7W is my favorite area. Although we haven't killed any monsters we still get elk. It is a fun hunt but can also be a tough hunt. My son has this tag this year. I had it last year. This past year we hunted higher looking for a big bull. It's hard to sneak up on them. Settled for a small 5x5 second to the last day. Good luck!
