Yup first time buying this. No birds

So i re seed my lawn every year and it usually is covered with dove and collard dove. This year no dove at all? Same for anyone else or am i getting lucky this year? Live in east valley

heck ya fellas keep these reports coming! Gets me more pumped up. My daughter has the youth hunt for nov 22-28 hunt Any antler deer. Anyone seeing any good mule deer as well? Love the unit! Cant wait to be hunting with her for her first deer tag.

Ya i really only really trust 30% of the population everyone else who knows? World is crazy. And its only getting crazier. Honestly i truly believe that trump will not win. Never i have i ever seen anyone attacked this much from all angles before this hard. Our corrupt government for some reason does not want him to be president and will do anything to prevent it. We have already seen it. Get ready for kamala!

This

Also is hope nobody forgets how we were silenced for having an opinion that was opposite of the leftand we were cancelled or comment deleted due to it hurting feeling or not aligning with the liberal left ideology. It even got to a point that all comments in most media platforms were stopped to push a one sided agenda. Never forget. After seeing all this i still have no idea how anyone can believe anything from the media or democrats. Everything that they went after trump for never held up only noise and attacks that should never have happened even thru our own justice system. Super scary to me and i hope one day everyone will wake up to this. But how it looks is we are only going to get more divided.

Ya covid happened during trump but everything else came under Biden. The media lies and all. come on flatlander open your eyes man. I am sure you got feelings for why you think the way you do but man how can u not see all this bullshit no matter who you are voting for. I lived thru covid and it had a major impact on my life. No trump did not make the mandates or force me to get a vaccine or take jobs away for not being a sheep. That was under Biden. Was told i am part of the problem and i was killing people. At that time i honestly felt that if the government said lock me up most people would’ve been ok to lock me up. All bs.

Dont forget everything we have had happen. Riots, murder defund the police, Chaz the lawless city of Portland that police were not allowed to enter. Massive drug use allowed. Lockdowns and forced vaccine mandate. Told by media and government to take a vaccine and u will not get covid or spread covid. Cant work or travel without a vaccine card. Inflation like no other. Huge border invasion. And if you think our money is going to the people of America you are mistaken. And also if you cant see now how the media and our justice system has been weaponized against us and anyone who is against the system you are crazy. Honestly though as i get older i feel like this is all made to happen to keep us fighting with each other to keep us all peasants and working for the rich. All at the same time we send our children to fight there wars to make them more money for them in every direction possible. Same for border. Never a fix just something to keep money rolling to corporate America. Seen it my hole life .Now we see someone get placed into a position to run for president and the media is making her out to be the savior. Craziness in my eyes. Wtf. honestly after the trump assignation attempt how that went down and everything else going on right now i am a little worried about whats next.

Man just read the rule and if this is what it means the banning of walker game ear definitely sucks for me. My daughter has unilateral deafness and i do not want to ever damage her other ear and this is the best thing to have to protect her ear and still be able to have her fully hear me without worries. Tried many other things and for a 10 year old this was the best. The waker razor ones also have a smaller contour compared to normal head muffs. Will have to research more about this.

Planned a trip with my buddy to do some shed hunting and turkey for a few and got it done first morning here. Have not been here in a while and it was good to be back in some country i had not seen for a bit. Still here tell tursday and the birds we got into have really been the only thing we could find except one distant gobbler. Roosted two toms first evening here and got on them in morning. First light Nd they were gobbling in the trees. They fly down and go right to the hen and i thought it was over. We did a circle and got a hen to fire up and she walked the other two hens in with the two gobblers. The one tom strutted back and forth gobbling spitting and drumming at 20 yards not giving me a shot for what seemed like ten minutes while the other stayed a little back. All while then hen circle and puffed up and started fighting a little getting the gobblers fired up. They started to move a right and the tom that was a little back stepped out at ten yards and i dropped him. Great way to start the trip! Been trying to find another bird and we have been shed hunting! Just thought i would share sense i was asking how it was going in New Mexico.

All i got to say is it crazy now to see all this political talk going on without posts being deleted. What happened to stanley? Did you end up taking six or seven covid shots and caught it a few times before you realized you should not silence the opposing sides and allow discussion? Sorry guys still pissed how much we were silence thru comments on all media platforms and i was very upset that we also got silenced on coues forum.

Ya i would guess another taxidermist running with the money. They didnt seem to be best of health either. I had my best velvet coues deer there for over two years and never got a call or anything. Went to shop and asked for my deposit back and velvet rack and they say oh a mouse got to it and chewed up one side. Left pissed off and took it to guy in young az who sponsors site i think or did and it took another two years to complete but he did fix very nice. I think people are having problems now with him and wife as well getting mounts done. RandR taxidermy honestly ripped off hundreds of people if they closed shop. Last time i was there i saw well over a hundred plus racks from all animals hanging on a wire on wall. Sad to say it but i am sure they are gone. They were cheap and i guess we all learn

Just go up and enjoy and don't stress about the tag. They will be bugling the whole hunt and some days better than others. All the hunters will be gone after first week. Enjoy heber or showlow and eat good food and chase elk all over that place. U will find them!

Ya i guess my last post made the unit and tag sound depressing and it is not. I was more responding to horses and less elk. I honestly would say from 2016 to now i prob saw half the elk i did last year compared to 2016.But we did find ek and bulls just not as many as years past but was still a blast. pic of nice bull from first year she had tag in 2021 i think before camera ban. She had this bull at 40 yards with no shot. Was huge up close But no idea what it would score.

Wife had gotten lucky and drew that tag twice in last three years. The difference in just the three years of amount of elk was astounding. I aslo had that tag in 2016 and man had it changed. 2016 ya there were horses but now they are everywhere. Elk were slim pickings and my wife shot one on our last day right off the rez line and never found it. Super sad to see all the horses and lack of elk compared to what i have seen before. I talked to guys who were saying the same thing about horses and elk count. That being said we did find elk and they were bugling and we called a few in and had a few chances. Just was not as magical as the hunts past with alot more elk being found

Crazy that i can scroll down on this discussion page and see a post title anyone see the news today and its about jan 6 issue and not hunting related at all and there can be over 6,000 views and 89 replies and is still up. i post a video that just shows our president making a speech and it gets taken down. Kinda fishy to me and one sided

Found some more sheds

Thank you!

Has anyone been and how was it? Going next week! Anyone go to the close units near az? Just seeing if there are any reports

No shots heard or birds shot that i saw. yes all the birds had a hunter coming at them and calling from different directions

Nice!

Rim rd was closed and cocinno rds closed not the forest. so everyone that wanted to hunt 4a,5s rds were closed no access and everyone that wanted to camp or go to bear knoll or woodscanyon lakes could not due to rds closed so they all camped in 4b and all went to willow springs lake. It was crazy never seen cars lined up to the 260.

Congrats!

Man went up with daughter to 4b and had a blast with her and heard some birds but man the place was loaded full of people. Forest was still closed everywhere on the youth opening and evering one was in 4b. Never hD there to four groups of hunters going after one bird. Ya i could of found more birds but wish i had more time! Oh well learning experience
