Lots of heated socks on Amazon. My wife is diabetic and her feet nearly froze this past weekend. She wore insulated boots and wool socks too. We are in the market for a good heated sock. Some of the rechargeable socks have the best reviews but when you are tent camping that is not practical. We are looking at getting her the AA or 9 volt battery type.

I must have a short memory but it seems like they reduced the archery antelope permits by quite a bit from previous years? https://s3.amazonaws.com/azgfd-portal-wordpress/azgfd.wp/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/27120936/2019-Pronghorn-Antelope-and-Elk-Regs_WEB.pdf

Got mine at Cabelas 2 weeks ago but paid no attention if they charged a convenience fee.

I have owned 3 trailers, one single axle and two tandem. I tore the axle off of of the single. It wasn't any one thing that tore it up but using it on dirt roads. I had to call a welder out to weld up the axles to the frame. 80 miles of mileage, 2 hours labor and a service call were pretty expensive. If you are going to be using it on dirt roads dual axles are the way to go. If you want easy hookup and primarily use it on good roads and light duty then single axles are the best

I have a couple of friends that have this tag. They are seeing nothing but dinks and does. I have had this hunt several times and keep telling them the last 3-4 days of the hunt is when it usually picks up in the areas they are hunting. One thing that is causing problems is the recent rains have the deer scattered from one end of the unit to the other. They are not stacked up near water sources like they would be in dry years.

I forget trying to figure out moon cycles. I hunt whenever I can. I have noticed over the years that when sitting water full moon days were much less productive than dark days. And I have been told by biologist that day length influences rut activity more than any one factor. Just hunt

I nailed down seats for this game as soon as they came on sale. I should have waited. Go Rams!

Burro bucks.

Angled. And I use a spotter equally as much as 15’s for glassing. Until heat waves start to distort the image my 15’s are not capable of detail at the ranges we sometimes glass. Having said that 10x42 are what I use most of the time. And if I had to choose it would be an angled spotter over 15’s or a straight spotter

Thanks. Those are unit 42 bucks killed a mile and 5 years apart. I killed bigger from the same area but didn’t have the money to mount them. The one on the right was archery.

I have been hunting desert mule deer for more years than I care to admit. Dry years look near water, wet years like this it’s like flatlander said, they are where you find them. Good luck cause you’re going to need it

I have 6x 400 spine FMJ's, 29 1/2", fletched with 3" Bohning shield cut X vanes. Asking $30. I can meet on the west side of the Valley.

Nice buck!

Nice! We are in the process of trying to find a fishing lodge in Canada where we can do some fishing. Halibut and salmon are near the top of the list. What type of tackle?

Shoot the Excalibur recurve crossbow while you are trying them out. I am looking at a reverse shoulder replacement in the not too distant future and am leaning towards Excalibur because of the weight. They are a bit wider unless you go the Micro series and very accurate. Also have one string to fool with and no true timing issues. A crank is a must as their top end Xbows have a 260-280 lb draw weight. I can still pull a 60lb compound but my time with archery is short.

Just got hammered again in the west deserts. Here at my house we are pushing 4" for the month. Bring it on!

Congrats! Nice buck!

Expect all kinds of weather.......warm, dry, wet, snowy and cold! That unit can get freakishly cold sometimes. If it's dry sit tanks. Otherwise find country you can glass. We have taken several bulls out of there this way. And we hunted near the reservation.

No. Creed was an old email address

Check your pm's.

Something I don't understand is why it is ok to leave beer cans and bottles in a campfire ring. For some reason many don't consider that litter.
-
Which camp? There were several camps in about a half mile strip down the 42 road just off of 108.

Find permanent water. Get up high and glass.

First time I ever applied for antelope was 7 with only the hunter ed bonus point. There were 4 of us on one application, all with 1 point. The bonus round then was 10% with 50 tags in the hunt. We were the next drawn after the bonus round.
