Ok, we've all seen or read about deer found with their antlers locked together or the elk with his rack jammed in the tree, truly sucky ways to die! What else have you seen in AZ? I have two that come to mind. In Unit 21, there is a steep- alled smallish canyon with waterholes in the bottom from rain and snow runoff. A few years back, I peered over the edge and floating in one of those pools that is so clear it looks like it is only a foot deep but in reality is really 8-10 feet deep, was a mother coyote and 2 pups. It looked like they drowned trying to drink when the water was higher and there was not an exposed bank to escape to. Another time, I saw a rabbit impaled on a stick. As far as I could tell, it jumped to get away from something and landed in the wrong spot. Wait, one more comes to mind........I was fishing on the Salt river where everyone tubes and saw a guy try to cross the river in jeans,cowboy boots, and a coors light in hand. He never made it. Let's hear'em!

I'd like to see that photo, what part of Africa was the trail am in? Jk

Sorry, I have to call "BULLSHEEEET!" on this one. Who determines what a "reasonable limit" is and how does the amount of ammo in the magazine of a pistol determine the behavior of the shooter? The kind of person that will fire off a wild shot at any sort of game will do so regardless if they are packing a single shot T/C or a Bushmaster M4!

Did you have the cabela's hoodie on when it came to call?

Did you check the flux capacitor? Jk

I recognize that deer! (I think)

DB Cooper says +1!

Cool stuff, but be careful about what you take home.

Is the gun a contender, maybe?

As long as I still have my "bad boy quads (and hams, calves, feet etc.....) I wont be needing your buggy either, sorry! Nothing wrong with walking under the sweet weight of a pack hoping to shoot something and then wondering "how the heck am I gonna get this back to camp?"!

Dang, You got a whole weekend's worth of action in a minute!

You got that right! Give me a bullet in the head before a long agonizing starvation death, anyday, just make sure to try to get my foot out of the wire first!

Also, during a storm, I saw a flash and sparks on a power pole near my house. When I went to investigate, I found a hawk with it's chest blown out and a quail clutched in it's talon. The smell of burned feathers rivals hair, anyday!

Awesome work! I love these OTC hunts and cant believe when I hear people talk bad about them. My first time going out on one of these hunts, I told my friend that since there weren't very many elk in the area, I was going to shoot the first cow I saw. Of course, 30 minutes into the hunt, I saw 3 cows running with a 5x5 bull and that plan went out the window! I held off from shooting several cows and never caught up with the bull, tag soup again! So much fun, especially if you dont mind walking. I love watching hunters(?) drive right by game in ATVs and never even seeing it.

DB Cooper says "My thoughts, exactly!"

Why is this such a touchy subject?

:DIt's ok, I guess, providing you like a nice set of antlers, the satisfaction of a job well done, and lots of excellent meat! Congrats!

did you find the knife, also?

I was lucky enough to see one in 33, two years ago while deer hunting. Shocked me!

I am constantly amazed and infuriated by the numbers of jerks that I see driving ATVs cross country, right past signs saying "NO CROSS COUNTRY TRAVEL PERMITTED"! Do you losers want us all to lose access to our hunting areas? You guys looked healthy enough, sporting brand new camo a couple of sizes too small with the creases still in it just like when you bought it at Sportsman's Warehouse, I would guess you guys hit the gym 3 or 4 times a week, no excuse for not getting out and walking. Maybe those brand new boots you were wearing hadn't been broken, yet. Bad news guys, you have to actually walk in them so they get broken in. Sorry. Anyways, I hate you and hope you break down in the middle of nowhere with only the circling buzzards for shade. I guess my point is "Stop driving where you shouldn't or else!" Ok, enough of my stupid ranting. Happy Hunting!

What was your address, again? jk

An old hunter moves into a cabin in the middle of no where. His nearest neighbor, an old trapper, lives 20 miles away. One day, the old hunter sees the old trapper coming up to his cabin. He asks "what's going on?" The old trapper says, " I'd like to invite you to a party at my place, next friday. There is going to be eating, drinking, a lot of screaming and then some fighting, and then a whole lot of wild sex. The hunter, having been alone too long, says great, I'll be there!" Who alls going?" The trapper says, " just you and I!"

I recently purchased a new rifle and am considering selling my Remington 600 .308. The stock needs to be refinished, if you are picky about appearances, but it is a solid rifle. Any takers, make an offer. Randall.who@gmail.com

Thanks for all the inquiries, the rifle has been sold to a responsible buyer.

sorry for the pic quality. Here are some more details: Stock is solid but could be refinished. I was in a pinch a few years back and used linseed oil on it. Bore is good, no rust on barrel or receiver. Shoots solid. Really handy rifle. I live in Phoenix and will meet you half way for delivery. first $350 takes it.
