Any Sign of Rut Activity for Archery Hunt in Southern Az?
elkaholic replied to azbullelkman's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
too many archery deer taken in 29 -- that's the biggest joke around. ask locals there are more deer poached in 29 than probably any other unit in the state I call it reputable source of info -- lived and hunted it 60+ yrs - seen G&F less than a dozen times over that time period only once when contacted about violators. G&F has no clue as to harvest numbers - LOL the ice cream the deer like is planted fields set up blinds on all corners during seasons and shots are often heard at night -
Ok here's the deal Bow--5- 2219 arrows w/ zwickey broadheads-43 Arrow rack/ 4 bow holder --- Stringer ---- glove --- arm guard --- extra rests packaged dealeduced to $ 100 bow is straight has a few blemishes -normal for its age arrows broadheads used- Gary 602-993-2657

elkaholic replied to mattys281's topic in Trail Cameras
looks to be same bear ---- bottom one is a little closer to the camera and in a different light , flip a coin -
hunts don't actually over lap much but during an active hunt - others are out scouting for their upcoming hunt which usually begins the day after a hunt ends we'd actually put out a sign HUNTERS at tank or in area . Nobody cares -- they drive right up and do whatever they set out to do! NOTHING NEW here in AZ. Sorry to say but get use to it - it isn't gonna get any better

pretty brave to keep all that in a garage sorry u were ripped off but way to easy seeing things in a garage even left open movin things in and out of a vechile I suspect a neighbor hood person hate to say friends of family BUT THATS A LOTOF $$$$ STUFF

younger days numerous hunts carring bow/ gun - just in case that super trophy buck wasn't allowing a bow kill-- usually makes for easy gun kill. take Both ! I had one hunt where I was VERY GLAD I carried that RIFLE!

like the ride down - your on your own ride back ? lol ranch location ? size area to hunt ? you need to be a lot more specific other than tags and rifles A little information about yourself might go a long ways also !
-
it's far from free meat! it's normally way harder than normal hunts. good luck to all hunters! Water is gonna make the difference, tanks are few and far apart and I have doubts any holding water. if you can hunt the edges of chevlon canyon that's WHERE I'D BE !

if you hunt the MAZE jungle in the river bottom -- use a single shot pistol - no chance to raise a rifle - tooo thick not a fun hunt

this is for any game animal :: just because you wear plastic/rubber gloves doesnt mean you wont spread contamination. like stated above - hang(if possible) - skin out avoid touching or any contact with meat - especialy after holding / grabbing leg - hide etc. gut- etc. if u debone in field - change glove s and/or wash hands - clean resharpen knife - I spread out my pocket poncho to lay chunks meat - put clean meat in game bags and then on ice if in ice chest open drain plug !!

1200 tags -- they've had more than that for 10+ yrs in unit 10 - that's just cow tags hey- people just want to draw a tag according to G&F - they don't care about success !

my only response - he stated the cat got back up and ran away on 3 legs - if he in fact hit that lion on either dot red or blk. there is no way that the lion got back up and ran off on 3 legs, after taking a hit from 150 grain .270 I'm no expert but I've shot and killed enough animals with various calipers at all kinds of distances including a called in lion at a very similar situation with a 150 grain .308 , results dead cat didn't go anywhere

Do not expect an easy tag filling hunt- most these hunts have elk that are really pressured, especially if there were 16 hunters a weeks before yours. they are usually a very limited boundary type hunt- never the whole unit! the time I drew a pool tag - didn't even see an elk
