I read this until page 2 a few days ago and wanted to respond (based on my feelings about poachers), but ended up not because I know very little about the topic except that a deer may have been poached and I vaguely remember the high tower thread. I come back to the topic days later and one person in question says he did not poach his deer. I'll take him at his word because he was the one person who was there.

Happy Anniversary a day late! Hope you two had a special day

You are a very, very patient man. He is a beautiful buck! Congrats

I put in this morning - had no issues, but it was early around 6 am or so

I picked up cheap thin camo pants from bass pro shops years ago for about $15 pair. I see the same ones there every year though. They are thin, but still work down south in the cactus okay. I also wear a leafy suit top. It's made out of screen so you can't get much cooler than that. Same goes for me.....I use the wind primarily for scent control. Typically it's cold in August in the morning up north so I'll start off with thin base layers, but as the day goes on they end up in the pack. They help with warmth in the early hours and weigh nothing to pack when it warms up. My fleece jacket weighs less than my other jackets so that is the one I typically start off with in the morning and end up packing it. I

Good luck!

It's what I shoot and is an excellent bow.

As a business owner, I can guarantee no one would force me to service someone I didn't want to. . There are a lot of ways to get out of doing something you don't want to do. You just have to be smarter than your opponent. I agree that this was probably a set up to further their cause. I personally have no issue with who people love and want to spend their life with, but I believe a legal MARRIAGE should be between a man and woman.

To be honest, yes I missed that you were joking because I lost interest with where the post was headed. Sorry but I still don't find the humor, but please continue

I'm assuming the "fluffy" comment must have been made out of jealousy because that is a beautiful girl with no fluff on her whatsoever. Seriously what would possess someone to call another persons family member on here fluffy. That is very rude.

I'm in Queen Creek/Gilbert. PM me if the location is good. We have a few things you mentioned that we need help with.

Go girl! I do believe I hear some jealousy from them boys

I've tried both calling and not calling because I'm new and know not to overcall so if anything I tend to call very very sparingly. I have had success talking to both cows and bulls and have called both into with 5 yards of me. The honest truth is you have to learn somewhere. The first cow I called in about 5 or so years ago was with a hoochie mama. She and her 2 friends came within 5 yards, but couldn't find me. I didn't scare them. They looked for awhile and then went back to the herd they were called from. It is what it is. It was my first step in the world of calling. I don't know if it's beginners luck I have with calling. I buy a call, research it, practice on it at home or in the car, practice it in the field with success, and then use it during a hunt. I've definitely found elk respond better to some calls than others. Could be the call or could be the user - who knows which.

lol

I've seen RV rentals on Craigslist. I'm not sure if they set it up though.

Anyone associated with the VA knows the truth whether you are a patient, family member, employee, etc.. Up until now it was brushed under the rug. I'm hoping there will be some good changes because of the coverage. Our vets deserve better healthcare than an AHCCCS patient would get, which isn't currently the case for most. and Obama knew all about it as has every president.

Edited....national forest not national park. Knew I said that one wrong so I came back for the edit.

I'm planning a trip back east and I'm making the trip what I want it to be. I have options. I can hunt either small private land areas or small public land areas or make the long drive to a national forest, camp, and hunt more like I hunt here. The last is what I've picked. I believe it will require more effort than if I pick option #1 or option #2, but I don't want to hunt like what the original poster was talking about.

Totally doable, but a much better experience if you can do it during the week. I was at Tortilla Flats 2 days ago and had the place just about to myself. I highly recommend their ice cream cones There are many great photo opportunities between Canyon Lake and Apache Lake. it's a beautiful drive.

I found a seep a few months ago. It was an area that I've hiked a lot of times, but in the past it was always the wrong time of the year for me to see it.

Thanks!

I'm still thinking about what Amanda said was on the food menu for this hunt. You guys really know how to do things

I've been marlin fishing (mexico), which ended up being a day of dolphin watching, and I've been fishing a few times off group boats fishing for whatever bites. It was a lot of fun seeing the variety of ocean fish everyone caught. The group trips were my favorite. I'm kinda like a kid though and would rather catch anything than nothing.

No input on Hawaii, but sounds like you are getting yourself a good wife PS - Dramamine.
