Going back up. Funny story, my boss texts me on Tuesday to go down on Wednesday for my annual bonus check. I get down expecting to stay for a few hours and come back. He calls in because of traffic on the 101. Had to spend the night down there with nothing. I'm am now keeping everything i need in my truck if that ever happens again.

The rim. Right now

Best unit in the state for elk!

*otc elk army

I saw some yesterday that sprouted new growth. With this very mild winter, I still think we could have some perfectly timed rains.

Where's unit 1?😅

My daughter got 3c rifle antelope.

Someone gave them to me, awhile ago.

Or maybe, just maybe. I want to see the gun. Same rules would apply to anyone that wants them. Have you ever seen a 44 automag? I would like too.

Yeah , when my friend gave them to me he just said 44. When I pulled them out to shoot out of my newly acquired anaconda. I went down that rabbit hole. Now i want to watch dirty Harry.

Yes, on one condition. I would like to see your 44 auto-mag.

My daughter is. The law of averages has come around in her favor big time. She had 1 point.

I commute from showlow a couple times a month to Scottsdale. A couple times a week Is rough. I would suggest Heber, it would cut an hour from a daily trip.

If he's home, I'll get some pics tomorrow. Lately, I've haven't been taking pics like I use to.

Otc elk. Going for 3 bulls in a row. I found one i really want.

I may use my crossbow next weekend. I'm running out of 'new firsts' to fill tags with.

My daughter got an antelope tag with 1 point. Every time I'm in her area of the house she says, "all it takes is one!"

There are Ranch owners that do not like hunters and hunting. Given the opportunity they will close there land to hunting

Would you guys be willing to lose santa margarita ranch for landowner tags? The owner doesn't care for hunting and would absolutely throw the tags in the garbage and not see another hunter.

In az, when a landowner stresses their concern g&f issues a depredation tag. When the concern is consistent like the hay farm by Heber they create otc units.

With all due respect, the super raffle is one tag not the amount that will effect populations and draws. Az already has a protocol to deal with nuisance farmland wild game. It's depredation tags.

Are you guys okay with landowner tags?

Did you get a deer tag?

Not much of a story. I went to my northern az quail place and my shotgun jammed. After 20 or 30 minutes of fiddling with it, I decided to go home. Driving way to fast on a dirt road, something crossed in front of me. I stop and think pig, then I think, the biggest javelina in the world. Then I think, do javelina have tails? Then I think, must be a ranchers, but there are no ranches within 5 or 10 miles. Then I think, I am smoking a tritip this evening. F IT! and grab my truck pistol. 357 Several shots from the cylinder were solid and it fumbles back towards me and falls

Still smoking
