Payson sucks. You would hate it. Payson will go to the dogs if the town planners get their way. Ive always wondered about northern New Mexico, Montana, or Wyoming.

it kind of depends on your standards. if you're dead set on killing a monster bull, you better be good. there's a few guys who can get it done on those late hunts. I've had some heartbreak stories on them, but i've killed some too. nothing big, mind you. but i'd rather have a lousy tag than sit on the couch for 5 years. but that's just me.

you probaby hit bone, and didn't kill him listen to the sound, it will tell you a lot. crack-bone shwack-vitals/lung thump-guts.

The fathers give us a right to remain silent for a reason. Never give up that right.

When my grandpa was a kid, he drove cattle from spingerville to Magdalena, unsupported. He was a rodeo cowboy, pro boxer, enlisted in the military in WW2, and traveling evangelist that drilled wells on the side. His dad, (great grandpa) was a post civil war era gunslinger. His uncle had been murdered by CC Slaughter, predecessor of the famed Texas John Slaughter. He turned his life to vengeance and turned his guns to the Slaughters. After years of the hard life of vengeance, he became a Christian and put his gun in his holster. He sold his backsmith shop in Sanco, Texas in 1915 and bought a ranch in Springerville, when my grandfather was 5 years old. They lost the ranch in the depression when the bottom fell out of the cattle market and they couldn't make the mortgage. They then turned to drilling wells, mostly in southern AZ.

Use hydrogen peroxide in a spray bottle. It will fizz up when it hits blood.

We took the kids to San Carlos between Christmas and New Years. I got a buddy who is a missionary down there near Álamos, and he set us up with some fishing. Kids were tickled pink.

I cant remember, Ill have to check. The first day was ok, we lost a few in efforts to get the kids on the reel. But we managed to land a couple. On day 2 we really got in to them, but we used a different charter service. The second guy was definitely better at finding fish.

Dont know why thats upside down. Help?

in the paper regs it had draw odds at over 200 percent on some of the muzzle loader hunts. that's awesome, everybody gets at least 2 tags!!

Nice looking stuff but way out of my price range and I don't want a competition gun with a lot of bells and whistles. he makes some nice carry pieces as well, call him for prices. he has a nice semi custom carry package that is affordable.

Thats interesting. A friend of mine who lives up there once stopped some college age kids from shooting a deer in his front yard. Some people get a real tree hoodie and watch an episode of duck dynasty and they think they can go shoot a deer any time they want.

He writes for Colbert, no surprise there.

Thanks!!

yeah, my great grandfather died 4 years before i was born, so i have limited info about these hunts, but my grandfather, who died about 10 years ago, did include these pictures in his book of memoirs. He did tell me one hunting story. Back then, food was scarce, as it was the great depression, and hence wild game was scarce, too. Pronghorn were on the "do not hunt" list due to endangered populations. But one day, out on the range, a speed goat showed up. Needing food, my grandfather shot him, and took him home for dinner. When asked what he would have done if someone showed up to witness the event, he replied, "I would have waved them around." Upon further questioning, the person asked what he would have done if they didn't go around. He replied, "They had BETTER go around." He was not an Arizona native, but a Texan. He moved here in 1915 after selling his blacksmith shop in Sanco, Texas. He grew up in the post civil war era, and knew his way around a gunfight really well. This was the great grandfather who's hunting rifle i inherited, as mentioned in a previous topic.

These are in springerville, circa 1915-1920, or near springerville I should say.

60?

I got an email back saying the governor has no say in ballot initiatives and that he can't do a thing about it.

Really? How much for the scorpion?
