If I win those it will be burned and the ashes will be mailed right back to lark I was thinking I might win a nice rifle for my dads elk hunt

Dont worry I got it under control

Ok here is a picture of what we called "The Boardwalk". During the first week I was there it was my job to build this thing. It is right at a 1/4 mile long and it took me 4 days to build it. The only reason I had to build it is so the clients didnt have to walk through the swamp or walk the 1/4 mile. We would drive our little Suzuki Samari's over this also.

Great job! That is a nice set you have there now. What is that hiding in the second picture? Looks like a nice brown elk antler.

What a way to start it off! Those are some great pickups. I have yet to find an intact skull that had antlers on them. Plenty of does though

Nice looking buck there. Looks like he has some tall G2's. Can't wait to see what you and Sun Devil get this year!!!

This is just one big ol' beaver dam. It was about 120 feet long.

Since I will be gone this weekend hopefully picking up some brown antlers I figured I would make one last post before I head out. These 3 pictures are of mushrooms found around the lodge. The first 2 are just so bright and stood out for good pictures. The third picture is of a huge mushroom. These things were everywhere and some were close to 12 inches across on top! And before I get any smart allick comments none of these mushrooms were eaten

Sweet pics. Looks like a good bull to.

Here is the first successful guide trip I was on. Everybody is probably getting tired of seeing this but this is the best picture I have from it. It is Troy and Jim and I think it turned out great.

I am shooting 3 or 4 days a week. Shooting 50 to 75 arrows each day. I am confident in my shooting just want to make sure I have a good arrow/broadhead setup.

I can't go back its to late for me. You can take my coues away from me when you take it from my cold dead hands

Coues do have small home ranges. I have seen several of the same bucks walk and bed down within 100 yards of the same place multiple times. In fact the deer I go this year I watched him bed under a mesquite in October and then again watched him bed under the exact same tree in November and that is when he met his maker. Just keep tabs on that area and try to locate deer in there on a regular basis and study where they water, where they eat and where they bed. You should do good this year.

Thanks for all of the info guys it really helps me in my thinking. I will have to do some more research and will post what I figure out.

I second the Remington model 7. I have this gun in a .243 and it has taken 1 javelina and 1 mule deer. Great gun but for oryx I would go with the 7mm-08

Ok this is a funny story. The first picture is of a mounted wolverine. On the wolverines snout ther are to marks. Those 2 marks are from a small black bear that broke into the lodge and latched onto the wolverine. As the black bear was dragging the woverine out the door the owner shot the black bear and he is in picture number 2 right now

Have only seen 1 timber rattler in my life but have seen enough other rattlers to last a lifetime. Why would you post a picture like that? Those things creep the heck outta me

Go to the draw page and click on spring results and put your info in and it should come up.

No cottontail this year?

I agree with AZ#1 why should the auctioneer have to wait 10 to 15 minutes for someone to make a bid? I was there and the 2 to 3 minute window the auctioneer gave was more than enough time. If you are interested in purchasing a tag of that quality you should know how much you are willing to spend and not hold back and wait for the bids to go higher.

It feels good to have a copy of the results printed out so I know for a fact G&F can't take this tag away from me.

You still look the same Tyler

Great job Bret always good to see the kids out there.

Here are a couple pics of a bald eagle. Thought they turned out great.

I was seeing at least a black bear a day. I had several days where I would see several black and several grizzly.
