We got pig (HAM) and turkey tags for 23. Now ... to keep fingers crossed turkey season isn't 90 degrees again this year

we just bought ours, and before I could use it,.. I noticed the slide wasn't timed right. Made the dealership fix it. But for future references, if its just a timing issue, look at you tube. Theres supposed to be different videos and how tos

im going to Tucson on Saturday from gilbert....

First off... kudos to you. that's very cool of you to help foster this kids interest with partaking in the lifestyle. I grew up not being exposed to it, but a family friend took me out for the first time and tried to help me out. and the correct approach, with the hunters safety. thats even better. Try to instill the ethics right from the start.

ha ha ha... rebel rouser

So, with the impending doom of decision making looming upon us for javelina... I have a question for the group. Can my 14 yr old step son partake in the HAM hunt with us. Obviously he's a minor, but what are the legalities of him carrying for a HAM hunt. --- I took him on the rifle youth hunt for his first youth hunt. We did Hunter Safety together (both required and wanted to). We helped him out, it was his hunt for sure. had buy in and shared thoughts and steered the hunt. But it was also 2 weeks before my rifle deer. Logistically speaking, it kicked my butt. It was basically pack, hunt, clean and wash all my gear, and start all over. So rather than running the risk of it happening again last year, I put him in with us in the general deer. If he can carry without either of us getting in trouble, I would like to put him in with us on the HAM.

this thread is turning into "rutnhard" type of forum. ha ha

I saw his story on fb... he had a picture and video posted. scary story.

ha ha... yeah, his dad has a bow for him. But I don't know how good he is with it. We do have time for some polishing of skills. But I think his thing is wanting to shoot a pistol. I have a hand me down bow, but I don't think I have near the skills to use it for archery

in ground, above ground,... a steal cattle tank... water restrictions are water restrictions.

how loud is it... ( You should post this in the classified section btw)

Water restrictions is a good point. We took our new trailer up for its maiden voyage. And we goofed off waiting to see if it would rain on Saturday instead of kayaking. We drove into Beaver valley estates and one other spot. Payson (area) has high water restrictions. another reason to go with the forest bordered property... would suck to pay ofr a house with a pool...(or add one) and have it sit 1/2 empty for the summer when the water restrictions go into effect

I know the spot/area... and although ive never stopped there...I have seen the hoards of people that do stop there. Having a nice creek next to, or even walking distance, would be nice...but I think if it were me, I would opt for the property next to the forest. Kids can find their own adventures in a place like that...and family trips to find somewhere to play in the water. There's more options close to that area for family swim time. And now my rant about a pool. Skip it! We bought our house in Gilbert 13 months ago. I didn't want a pool, but got out voted. We did find a nice house, with yep, a pool. Now when we were searching, the step daughter was in swim lessons, and every chance (family friends etc) she would be in the pool. Since we moved to a house with a pool... I can count how many times on one hand she was in the water this summer. And I would say in the past 13 months I would say the lady and the step son have been in the pool less than 10 times a piece. The cost of upkeep, electricity, and the time spent cleaning the neighbors leaves from my pool... I would have rather not have it.

How much beer can you drink, and what kind? I will contribute ha ha

I seen the pictures of her bruised leg on fb in a different article. --pretty bad.

All of the longer messages are cut off.... Like the page/line break is screwed up. If the messages is typed and has multiple lines, it cuts off the last words of each line

I could probably set you up with my soon to be father in law. He does surveying right now...

I did the regular field day, with the stepson... when he did this (2 birds, one class ha ha)

At least the ad didn't say "only used once" lol.

I don't know how big my biggest one is, but I think its close. im in gilbert as well if you want dimensions I can measure it.

Like IABorn said... never hurts to ask. I did the online class with the stepson. He needed the HE for the fall jr javelina tag. I couldn't find an open field day ever (plus only having him e/o weekend made it worse). I called and asked to be put on a waiting list, and they were able to squeeze us in . I felt pretty relieved and special until I got there, and half of the class was "squeezed" in also. ha ha

My brother in law used to be a high end watch salesman. The thing that's funny about that is he could never afford what they carried in the cases. But he did know his materials, and was required to buy a "brand they carried".. He might be able to help answer some questions at least if not give you some leads on the ones he likes.

I just upgraded my truck as well, Sitting at the dealer, signing paper work I mentioned wanting to volunteer to help with this as well. I was quite surprised that my lady was super excited about wanting to get active with this as well. With turning 40, and a road trip (that we just got back from) now, I want to at least get my name on a list to help haul water also. Thanks for the post.

three easy things to remember when staying hydrated. --a formula: "1/2 body weight = ounces of fluid" so if you weigh 200 pounds, you should drink 100 ounces of fluid through the day especially during high heat activities (working outside etc) -- bottled water doesn't really count Yeah, it's easier to drink, and I do prefer the taste over valley tap water... but it doesn't have anything your body needs. The ro process actually strips all the essential minerals that would be in the water, that your body uses, ... and if you drink enough bottled water, it will actually leach out the minerals that you do have worsening the effects of dehydration. --drink today for tomorrow. What you drink today, doesn't necessarily help you stay hydrated today. What you drink today is going to hydrate your body for the next day. Back in my earlier life, I would hydrate the crap outta myself, do the training run or 1/2 marathon without any water, and then try to find the balance again the day after.

I didn't get hit. so it doesn't matter. ha ahahahahah jk. No charges for us, so now OTC bear tags I think. Anyone wanna go?
