I recieved a call back in September that I was next in line for a rifle tag in 9. I turned it down since it was only 2 weeks before the hunt. Got hit with an antelope charge today, 26 points. Slim to none chance it could be for my daughter though, she has 0 points.

I got the call for that tag yesterday from whoever surrendered it. I declined it today. I have 26 points and can’t do the tag the justice I want. I’ve heard nothing but negative for antelope this year and the lack of water, including in 9. Hopefully you find what you’re after!!

Nice bucks. You got those in 8 right? I'm assuming by the pic of the two on the ground you got them up top? My wife got a real nice 3x3 on opening morning down low in the cedars. Not sure how to post pics here or I'd put one up.

I'm not sure what the hospitals charge to give the anti-venom shots, but I can get a dose for $500 from my wife at work. She's a vet and that is their cost on it. I'm sure hospitals charge 10x that much. I've thought about getting some to carry, but I don't run into snakes very often. Of course, now that I say that, I'll probably see one next weekend!!!

My wife and father in law has that muley tag. Went out yesterday evening in the cedars near Drake. Glassed up 5 real good bucks a long ways off. They will be hard to get to but hopefully they'll be there. It is our first time hunting that unit as well. From what I've heard there will be a lot of people in the lower areas, but mostly driving around. I guess we'll see what happens.

I don't think a honey hole exists in 6B. My wife has had that tag 3 out of 5 years. You may want to consider the lower country between Sedona and Cottonwood. It is easy to glass.

Ammo is hard to find and very expensive. A local gun shop where I live can order it but it takes a little time to get it.

Wish I had the cash. I'd buy it.

Pretty sure G&F cannot and will not enforce these road rules.

If I were to guess, I'd say that even having the bow on the ground next to you would be considered illegal. You still have the bow in possession and are now hunting with a firearm. I would think the bow would need to be in a case in the vehicle or left at camp. Thats just my take on it.

I have 4 Bridgestone Deuler H/T's for sale. 265/70/17. 2,000 miles on them. Basically brand new. $425 for all 4. I'm in Cottonwood.

Got a pic texted to me from a guy in 10. Killed a real good 360+ bull this morning.

I know you say the price is firm on them, but if you don't get any takers and decide to lower it let me know.

It can be a very tough hunt unless you get lucky or have local knowledge of the area. There are a few locals who kill every year, but not many.

How old are those EL's?

There is a pair for sale over on the monstermuleys classifieds.

Game and Fish will not issue tickets for the new camping/closed roads restrictions.

Heard on the radio this morning that the Coconino FS has issued tickets to some hunters who broke the rules and traveled off road to retrieve game....

Sold

I have a new pair of 10x42 Viper HD for sale. They were taken out of the box and looked through one time at the house, have never been in the field. Asking $550 for them.

I have a brand new pair of Viper 10x42 HD I am going to sell. In fact, I am selling them to get the Razor HD. If you can't find anybody to trade you and you are interested in a cash purchase on these vipers let me know.

Those forest rules are nothing new. They seem to be selectively enforcing them more now though.

Would you sell the motor seperately?

Made a trip up there and ran into one of the ranchers. NO I didn't have an ATV with me. The signs weren't there. Asked him about it and he said they thought about letting ATVs back on the ranch. Whether they did or not I don't know, but when I was there that was the plan. But yep, I can't read........

The biggest bulls I've glassed in 6A have been while looking for coues deer.....hunt them both at the same time in the same canyons.
