lol, don't take me too seriously, but still i see fish and game dudes driving the most luxurious trucks on the road, while fees go up again....i'm thinking... you have got to be kidding me! I'm not saying G&F is a corrupted organization on all levels, but i've seen some things in my lifetime that just make you go...hmmmmm. yes, i do think g&f should be all volunteer, and under the authority of the county sheriff's office, kind of like some search and rescue depts. nobody should make money off of hunting, imho. the best things in life should always be free. you know how many friends i have that would love to put in for elk but just can't afford a tag? a bunch. it's a shame, really.

i really hope you saw this as humor, lol.....no disrespect intended. just dying to see the pics like everyone else....

yes, i do. it's a insanely high price to pay for the worst hunting available. My cousin in missouri gets 11 tags for free before he has to start paying for them,. don't forget your 42 bucks gets you only 1 lousy week to hunt, and doesn't include the license, so really your deer is well over 70 dollars. when i go to missouri, i pay 225 for 4 tags, 2 deer and 2 turkeys, and additional tags are 25 bucks each. So, for 250 bucks, i get 5 tags, no license is necessary. and i get 4 months to hunt. and like i said, my resident cousin gets 11 for free, and doesn't have to buy a license, period. and talk about quality of hunts, MO is not even considered a quality state to hunt in, and every time i go there are deer falling out of the trees. it's definitely a better deal than hunting is AZ. imho, tags should be free, or just the cost of printing. the azgfd should be a completely volunteer run organization, money always corrupts. i'd volunteer. don't get me started on the price of elk tags. they should be 10 bucks, max.

thank goodness tag prices just went up. still gripes me that i can hunt out of state cheaper than i can hunt in my own backyard. and fish and games drives the newest trucks on the road. i think 50 bucks would be way too much to pay for an elk tag. what's more, we have some of the worst hunter opportunity for deer hunting in the US. and to have to pay premium prices the worst hunts imaginable.

i just married an italian supermodel!!! i'll post honeymoon pics later, (we're working on a deal with the tabloids, i'm sure you understand!)

i want one like no other....i'll be looking under the christmas tree, cuz that's the only way this could happen!

so, did anybody else hunt 22south? i'd love to see some more pics....

nice!!!

looking back, i wish i would have played hookey more often and dumped school like a bad habit. and i mean that sincerely. but to each their own. just ask her what she wants to do. she probly already knows what is more important to her at this stage in her life.

i have a 3 1/2 inch gun, but it's not looking like i'll have time to do any waterfowling this season

congrats!

here's my 2013 elk. he's a little guy but i'm still smilin' big!

don't know about phoenix, but End of the Line in Deer Creek was the only guy in the payson area taking elk yesterday.

we saw absolutely tons of elk, but couldn't find a decent bull. i'm confident they are in there, just avoiding me. the tracks indicate there are several good bulls roaming the hills, we just couldn't lay eyes on them. i went ahead and tagged out this a.m. on a spiker. i'm wondering if i should have been more patient. oh well, it was fun, and i'm thankful for the bull i did get.

i knew there was a reason why i bought an '06

every time i get a big animal coming to a tank it rains right before the hunt. every time.

i just trolled ricky g's facebook! whoo hoo!!! he eat's fish. hypocrite.

sweet.

i wouldn't do it. Asplund is in there clear cutting all the way to phoenix under the power line right now. They cut preacher canyon a few weeks back, and are at the round valley level, i think it's hole in the ground canyon right now. i went back there and checked 3 tanks for tracks and on the three there was 1 cow track and that's it. They had 6 trucks and a side by side parked on the very best elk trail back there. and i mean right on the trail. i was so bummed. I was determined to hunt over there, but after spending the bulk of saturday out there, i'm lookin' long and hard at the mazatzals. hope this helps.

i personally wouldn't sit water on a full moon for elk, but you could get lucky, you never know.

this has obviously been picked up by animal wacko trolls. do your part and comment positively. i did. bash the libtards mercilessly. and pass it on and have your friends do the same.

i drew 22s this year, but i can't imagine not being able to get away from the crowds in 23. It's a big place.

i've always been fascinated by oneida bows. are they still in business?

i found saddle bags for someone's quad on the side of the highway near christopher creek this am. it's a long shot, and i know it's not a great loss, but if you want them back, let me know.
