    looking for a small tractor

    seen some ford 8n's on craigslist. a week or so ago, about $4k (give or take a few hundred...that's a normal price). the Arizona Early Day Gas Engine and Tractor association has their annual show in March. normally ones for sale out there, or there's a bulletin board at the show of people selling. No telling what might be on it though: http://www.aedgeta.org/apache-junction-flyer-2016.html

    Exclusive Hunt Club

    thank goodness CWT isn't this prestigious... I wouldn't qualify
  8. Well after a long weekend... and a long week of admitting defeat and cleaning gear, and "what's that smell" from the dry box; I was just curious if anyone one that had my same unit, had any success. Thanks to my new and good friend (and fellow CWT member) Edge, We camped in an area that we probably would have avoided ordinarily. We camped closer to Lake Pleasant. Surprisingly enough, it wasn't the intermittent drone of weekenders or offroaders that interrupted our serenity. We got the donkeys in all hours of the night to thank for that. ha ha. One even managed to come into the middle of camp, and kick over a couple of dry boxes. We seen plenty of sign, and plenty of sign to everything else (like mountain lion), but just couldn't come across them. We ran a staggered camp. 3 of us went up for the first 4 days, then my brother and I stayed an extra night till Tuesday. One of our group came out Monday and stayed till Saturday. (the perk of the extra time on the HAM hunt). Tim and his sidekick did work their way up to around bumble bee, and said they seen lots more sign over there. but they were unsuccessful nevertheless. Luckily we squeaked our elk app in before hitting the road for javelin camp. Cows straight across in all 5 slots, but October is a long time away, and it's still a draw. My girlfriend asked the other day for the dates for spring turkey, that's when I got all teary eyed and said we didn't get drawn for that either... C'mon dove season...!

    Any luck in 20B? (tag soup for me, again)

    Oh man oh man... Assuming its the same incident, your fellas made an old timer really mad. Friday morning, we just got back to camp from our opening day walk about. We had two old timers in a side by side come into camp to see if we were hunting, swap info, and say hi. One guy had a tag, one guy was out to help. fast forward to Tuesday. My brother and I were packing up and Tim and his step son were just getting started (we went out Monday night, and Tuesday morning). The guy on the SxS stopped back in. Said he was all set up on a herd of about 20 with his bow, started to draw up...and had someone shoot and scatter the herd from a ways off. Now- I'm assuming it is the same area, just north of the lake... and the follies of the H.A.M. hunt in general. our first venture into 20b was on the west end of castle hot springs rd. The rancher helped us out and tipped us off about a herd he seen earlier in the morning (see they're not all bad, lol). Really think that was by chance that we found them though. This year we covered new ground after getting some sage advice from Edge. Seen lots of good sign, but never crossed paths. Tim and his step son showed up Monday and left Saturday. one of the days they went up north by bumble bee and said the sign was a lot thicker up that way. Oh well, maybe next year.

    any luck for you? did you get back out there?

    West of San tan mtn

    just head out the other end, and go by Florence, safer. Unless you can carry a signed "permission slip" of sorts by legal rights... they can confiscate anything you have on you, once "trespassing" past the right-of-ways of established roadways

    Sausage makers in phx?

    share your recipes in the cooking section? optimistic about javelina. Miller's southwest is good too, a bit of a stretch for you though. My buddy took his first ever javelina there. They made chorizo and breakfast sausage... But this year, if were lucky, we were gonna try to do it ourselves

    20C Youth Javalina Hunt

    where do you plan on hunting? We were in 20c for deer. Seen lots of sign by Hillside. We wound up camping by Peeples valley in the end. One of the guys seen javelin close to camp. But it might be colder there for them

    Movie

    My girlfriend got the movie from a coworker in their gift exchange once. She added it to the gift that she got her brother one year for Christmas. -he is not "that way", she just was trying to be funny. And last Christmas, in the "welcome to the family moment"... He wrapped it up and gave it to me to open in front of everyone on my first Christmas with her family. (he did tape a bass pro card to the back of it. Now however.... When ever I see him, I try to ask him "when are we going to hang out and watch that western you got me?"

    No bark Collar recommendations?

    Does it mainly smell like elephants and monkeys...or is it got a hint of bearded lady? ha ha ha Jk. Anybody know how to slip the bark collar onto my neighbors dog? My english pointer doesn't seem to bark in the middle of the night, but the neighbors pit mix seems to have great vocal stamina all night long. (I can usually tell when the phoenix sway neighbor I have comes home and decides to take his trash out at 2 am. That's the only real time hank looses his mind.)
