What I did also on a 870 super-mag.

Found this up north while taking a break from the sun on a hike.

Same tag here. Hoping for a wet winter after the wet summer to put birds back in my usual spots.

I'll second this, the heat will slow things down in daylight hours. It's been wet and cool in 3C and heard some talking last weekend, but feels like June again and quiet.

Yeah, they harvested what they could that year and went back to NM.

Thank USO Outfitters also. I've had a couple friends ask about using them and have to give them my 20 minute rant on that fiasco.

Exactly, killed a lot with 12 gauge copper plated #4 buckshot. Super full choke can really reach out and touch them as well.

Elk feed on these a lot after the monsoon in late August, but didn't see many last year with the lack of rain. BTW, the leaves on this plant can be used to insulate your shoes or even added for padding if you have a boot blowout in the woods.

Helping a friend with an archery cow tag and we've named this bull the Unicorn Bull. We've seen multiple strange bulls in this area, must be the area 51 for elk.

At least the cows appear normal.

Here's another from area 51. The Droptine Bull.

Got lucky and got my bird on the 2nd day in 3C. There's more water this year which means little potholes tucked away in draws and canyons, which turkeys prefer. I wasn't seeing birds in the normal places, they're not going near tanks.

I bought a wrist rocket from Ace here in town so when they visit the water I'm sitting they don't feel welcome. Non-lethal and kind of fun when the elk hunting is slow.

Me too, nice to see another local guy get this tag. I've been out during the rut the last 9 years in this unit and the hunt dates are exceptional in my opinion. Good luck!

Nice to see the hunting rigs start flowing into town. I was out this morning with herd bulls bugling and satellite bulls near by. They're going to go down early until it cools down, the action was winding down at 7:30.

They're still shutting down by 7am or so, too hot! Interesting that they fired up early yesterday, 4pm or so. Also, still seeing big groups of cows with 4-5 bulls, so it's not quite there yet. Also, as the moon fills they are more active at night, at least while it's up.

chico, PM me if you're having problems finding elk. Always like to help the juniors.

Shot my deer in January, now taking pictures in August. Will re-think what I do in January next year...

Dropping to $2750, want to get it sold before the monsoon hits and don't want to tarp in again. Selling my 2006 Jumping Jack trailer, haven't used it for 2 years so time to go. Accessories: 2 water jug racks camp box rack latern holder kitchen kit table and legs quad safety bars The zipper on the tent bag is broken, so either the bag needs replaced or zipper fixed. The frame is in good shape, could use a layer of rustoleum on the top and sides. PM me if you want more info. Thx

Dropped to $2750.

Still for sale. BTW, throwing in the lucky part for free, 3 for 3 on bull tags when I camped in this.

Can you tell me who you had fix the zipper?

Loved it, but don't use it now. Thx

Yes, you can use as a utility trailer also but I've never done it.

I got it in 2006
