    HOW DO YOU CAMP

    Bed of truck for 30+ yrs..still do depending on hunt. 10x10 Coleman for 10 yrs. Teepee tent last 10 or so. Never s fire , no beer on most hunts.⁹ Picked up a 10x10 cabelas outfitters xwt. Probably sell it. To much for a few days. May try Alaskan guide #6 , always seems to get windy and small 2- 3 pole tents suck. New insta- pop tents might work but not in colder weather. Anyone got experience with either 10x10.

    Trump shot at rally today

    In the coming days, much of the focus will shift to the shooter and security lapses. The shooter was not an attendee at the rally and was killed by U.S. Secret Service agents, according to two officials who spoke to the Associated Press on the condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing investigation. The officials said the shooter was engaged by members of the U.S. Secret Service counterassault team. The heavily armed tactical team travels everywhere with the president and major party nominees and is meant to confront any active threats while other agents focus on safeguarding and evacuating the person at the center of protection. Law enforcement recovered an AR-style rifle at the scene, according to a third person familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing investigation. An AP analysis of more than a dozen videos and photos from the scene of the Trump rally, as well as satellite imagery of the site, shows the shooter was able to get astonishingly close to the stage where the former president was speaking. A video posted to social media and geolocated by the AP shows the body of a person wearing gray camouflage lying motionless on the roof of a building at AGR International Inc., a manufacturing plant just north of the Butler Farm Show grounds where Trump’s rally was held. The roof where the person lay was less than 150 meters (164 yards) from where Trump was speaking, a distance from which a decent marksman could reasonably hit a human-sized target. For reference, 150 meters is a distance at which U.S. Army recruits must hit a scaled human-sized silhouette to qualify with the M-16 rifle. The AR-15, like the shooter at the Trump rally had, is the semi-automatic civilian version of the military M-16.

    Trump shot at rally today

    Eyewitness tells BBC he saw gunman climbing up building with rifle, tried to warn police From CNN's Jessie Yeung An eyewitness outside the rally where former President Donald Trump was injured in a shooting said he saw the gunman climb up a roof and tried to warn police. “We noticed the guy crawling, bear crawling, up the roof of the building beside us, 50 feet away from us,” the witness told BBC News on Saturday after the incident. “We’re standing there, we’re pointing at the guy crawling up the roof. … We can clearly see him with a rifle,” he said. He added that they notified police in the vicinity and that officers “didn’t know what was going on.” “I’m thinking to myself, ‘Why is Trump still speaking? Why have they not pulled him off the stage?’ I’m standing there pointing at him for two, three minutes, Secret Service is looking at us from the top of the barn, I’m pointing at that roof, just standing there like this, and next thing you know, five shots ring out,” he said. CNN cannot independently verify his account. John Miller, CNN chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst, said the testimony raises many “serious questions.” “There’s going to be an extraordinarily, excruciatingly detailed examination about who knew what, how was this communicated, and who determined to take what action or not take what action,” he said.

    AZGF Overlapping hunts

    I wanted to give unit 8 a try this yr. I prefer to WT hunt. Unit 8 -- hunt number 1079- 50 tags. Oct. 25 -Nov. 3, 7 days. I figured a perfect hunt as only 50 tags. Great time of yr. Etc. Guess what! Unit 8 -- hunt number 1011 - 300 MD tags. Nov 1 - Nov. 7. So if I'm lucky enough to draw unit 8 . The last 3 days of my hunt, I get the pleasure of 300 MD hunters ruining my hunt. Not just coming in days early scouting and setting up camps , but actually hunting! Is AZGF CRAZY, or just to dumb to see they are really screwing the WT hunters. I did contact AZGF, and actually got a reply. I was told its been overlapped for yrs. by a day or two to accommodate the systems program to give hunters 7 days to hunt. I'm the first guy to ever contact them about this issue. They didn't really see it as a problem.

    Todd Rice Ruling

    This news bulletin was sent exclusively to Email Extra subscribers of The Hunting Report at least 24 hours prior to becoming available to other viewers. Fraud Victims of Todd Rice/Sonoran Outfitters, ACT NOW for Restitution! (posted January 09, 2018) One of our subscribers caught up in the original controversy surrounding Todd Rice of Sonoran Outfitters recently emailed us with information that an Arizona court had ordered Rice to pay $30,000 in restitution to 10 plaintiffs who had filed suit against him for consumer fraud and had awarded an additional $30,000 for restitution for other victims who come forward within 90 days. We went digging and found this press release: FLAGSTAFF - Attorney General Mark Brnovich announced that his office obtained a $30,000 consent judgment against Sonoran Outfitters Adventures, LLC, and its owner, Todd Basil Rice. Sonoran Outfitters Adventure, based in Flagstaff, advertised and sold hunting, guiding, and trophy delivery services in Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, and Mexico. Sonoran Outfitters failed to deliver the hunting, guiding, and/or trophy delivery services to at least 10 consumers who prepaid for the services. The consumers live out of state and had planned to travel to Arizona and Mexico for guided hunts for western deer and/or bighorn sheep. According to the consent judgment, Sonoran Outfitters will pay $30,000 in restitution to 10 consumers who filed complaints with the Arizona Attorney General's Office. Defendants also agreed to pay an additional $30,000 in restitution for any new consumers who file valid consumer fraud claims with the Attorney General's Office against Sonoran Outfitters Adventures within the next 90 days.The consent judgment resolves a consumer fraud lawsuit filed against Sonoran Outfitters by the Attorney General's Office in 2017. The judgment bars Sonoran Outfitters from performing future hunting, guiding, and trophy delivery services as promised to consumers unless Sonoran Outfitters fully refunds all payments. Sonoran Outfitters must also adequately explain in writing all terms of any non-refundable deposit. Sonoran must also pay another $10,000 in civil penalties to the State. To file a complaint against Sonoran Outfitters Adventures, or if you believe you have been the victim of consumer fraud, you can file a consumer complaint by contacting the Attorney General's Office in Phoenix at 602-542-5763, in Tucson at 520-628-6648, or outside the Phoenix and Tucson metro areas at 800-352-8431. Bilingual consumer protection staff members are available to assist. Consumers can also file complaints online by visiting the Attorney General's website at https://www.azag.gov/complaints/consumer.With only 90 days to act, we suggest you move immediately if you feel you have been victimized by Rice. How much you'll be reimbursed will depend on how many other complainants come forward. You can read the full text of the judgment against Rice here: https://www.azag.gov/sites/default/files/sites/all/docs/press-release/press-release-files/2018_files/judgments/8961283_85053869_endorsed.pdf. We'll follow up with more detailed information in our February issue. Stay tuned.

    Just a different idea, lopers are very curious. Google using a white flag. Wavy it around, get their attention. Stop repeat. Another little know trick, hide and seek. Walk right out in the open , then quickly drop, hide behind a tree or bush. Repeat. They can't stand it ! Might not work all the time but worth a try, may get one close enough. Article: For a short window in the fall–late September through mid-October–you can lure a pronghorn with a handkerchief (a white T-shirt works, too). You’re appealing to the animal’s curiosity, territoriality, and herd dominance. Just wave the fabric until you get the buck’s attention, then lower your flag. Periodically raise and lower it to keep him interested and coming. I have my best luck when I tie a hanky to the barrel of my gun. That way I can raise the muzzle to get the buck’s attention without showing myself. Waving a flag , can usually stop a running or moving buck. Giving a shot opportunity.
