Sam

Very sad, so sorry.......We always look back on these things and think "If I had only known, I could have helped." you are so right, don't keep these things bottled up. As a high school counselor, I see it all the time - more than most people know. Last week, at one of our feeder schools, we just had a 6th grader hang himself. Talk about a tragedy.

I agree I was surprised at all the high rankings for caribou - I did not grow up in Alaska, but I would not put caribou above elk, deer, moose or musk ox.

It has been about 30 years since I have had antelope, I have clearly forgotten what it tastes like. 1. Coues - any cut 2. Musk Ox - Ground. The meat has alot of veins, so steaks tend to be tough. 3. Elk - any cut 4. Moose - any cut 5. Mule deer - backstraps Favorite small game - squirrels in a crock-pot.

A 30-06 would be fine for a 15 year old if you use Managed Recoil Bullets made by Remington. They are about 50% less recoil than a regular round. They use to make them in 125 grain. This type of round would be fine out to 150 or 200 yards. My daughter used this round on her .270 when starting off - it felt less than a .243. I shoot 180 grain out of my 06 and would not wish that on a 15 year old.

Thanks. You guys are right. I found a nice video on You Tube. It looks pretty straight forward. I'll order the parts and dive into it.

I have never been thrilled with our Front Load washing machine. It is an LG and is 5 or 6 years old. This week, it has been vibrating really bad on the spin cycle. It is level and the feet are locked into place. I was thinking it could be a bad shock, I think there are two of them. Or I was also thinking it may be the tub pulley. Anyway, I have no experience working on these and I am not so sure I want to dive into it and make matters worse......Anyone ever made this type of repair or does anyone know someone who works on these type of washing machines? I hate spending money on these types of things. Especially after paying for multiple elk and antelope applications for the family - 10 in all. But, with 3 women in the house, I can not wait too long...... Thanks.

Nice job - Congratulations to your daughter.

The disclaimer/warning is pretty clear - don't wait until the last minute. The deadline should not have been extended. Even the best servers crash. Don't try to say the IT department at Game and Fish is not up to speed. Don't blame it on Government workers. Blame yourself for waiting. I work for one of the largest school districts in the state. At the end of each semester, 1000s of teachers wait until the last minute to post grades. While at the same time, 1000s of parents and kids are trying to check their grades. And guess what, the system crashes.

I was thinking the same thing. I think it is a great idea. Those who wait can drive them to Game and Fish. For those of us who have been around for awhile, may remember dropping off applications on Greenway......I did, not because I procrastinated, but because I often did not trust the mail. And that was when we applied for all species during one draw and had to have the money upfront.

I'm in - online. Not a problem for the whole family. Game and Fish even updated our license numbers........App fees= $130.00.

Good luck on the draw. I have 21 points also. Been hunting in AZ for 35 years, never been on an antelope hunt. Hoping it happens this year. I haven't decided yet on the unit for this year, but I feel like I will likely get another point - no bonus point round yet.

Very nice. It is always cool to see the two species in the same area. I'm not sure if I have ever seen one of each harvested on the same day.

Congratulations on a beautiful moose. Great footage.....I love Alaska. I can't wait to go back. Two years ago I shot a small 40 inch moose on DIY hunt. Next time I will hold out for a bigger one. Enjoy all that great meat, nothing better.

Keith - I sent you a PM.

Price lowered.

I bought this dog vest by mistake and do not feel like returning it to Cabela's. I thought it may be easier to sell it to someone on the website and save the gas or return shipping. I am losing a little money, but saving myself a drive. Asking $15. It is blaze orange with a black chest protector. It is made of 5mm Neoprene, great for duck hunting. I did not realize it was neoprene and I do not think I will use it. I thought just the chest protector was neoprene and the rest cloth. Size large....measure your dog in 3 spots - neck - 18.5", chest - 26.5" and 23.5". There is about 3 inches of velcro adjustment on the back. Located in north Phoenix/Scottsdale area.

Introduce a senior only hunt for antelope, deer and elk to all those who have a pioneer hunting license. Many older folks are running out of time. Draw only for these folks. Mandatory harvest questionnaires. To cut down on postage - the username, password and permit number should be emailed to all those who applied online. Continue with the online version to complete the questionnaire. Waiting period of one year to all those who draw a bull elk tag or a premium deer tag (December whitetail/mule deer or Kaibab or strip tag).

Why wouldn't people fill out the survey? And why would hunters feel like they need to lie. Decisions have to be made on statistical data - that is kind of the basis for science. And last I checked, Wildlife Biology is a science and science is data driven. It is really too bad that some hunters feel like they need to lie on surveys to try and trick the Game and Fish one way or another. It would be great if those who applied online, would get an email with an online survey, no postage spent by Game and Fish. This would save quite a bit of money.

Ted Nugent on Ferguson.............now, how do we get the right people to read this? Here's the lessons from Ferguson America- Don't let your kids growup to be thugs who think they can steal, assault & attack cops as a way of life & badge of black (dis)honor. Don't preach your racist bullshit "no justice no peace" as blabbered by Obama's racist Czar Al Not So Sharpton & their black klansmen. When a cop tells you to get out of the middle of the street, obey him & don't attack him as brainwashed by the gangsta assholes you hang with & look up to. It's that simple unless you have no brains, no soul, no sense of decency whatsoever. And dont claim that "black lives matter" when you ignore the millions you abort & slaughter each & every day by other blacks. Those of us with a soul do indeed believe black lives matter, as all lives matter. So quit killin each other you idiots. Drive safely.

That's too bad. Tag soup for us too.....

She has to be the one to get the duplicate tag. Definitely any license dealer has the ability to give her a duplicate tag. We had to get one at the store in Clints Well one year.

Once again, the Cats rely on their kicking game to determine the game's outcome. Luckily it worked out in their favor. Not sure if they can win a Pac 12 Championship if their kicker has to score more than half of their points to win a game. Glad Skowron kept the faith.

Great camp site and even a better deer - congrats.

Nice job. Great hunt.

No, not a legit way to hunt. Nor is it ethical.
