    1988 Skeeter Bass Boat-$3200 - SOLD

    Nice deal...man I need a place to store a boat!
  4. Quick search didn't return anything...one of my buddies just bought a new .308 and the manual recommends running an ammonia wipe through the barrel between shots for the first 10 shots. Any idea of ramifications if this is not done? Any other recommendations on break-in period? He's not looking for long range use, just general use for elk and deer hunting for himself and his kids... Thanks!

    Apparently I missed my 1000th post...what do we do to celebrate? Was about to pour a stiff drink based on the day I've had so maybe it will serve 2 purposes...

    the Hunt

    Interesting. Same people upset about this were probably upset when they cut their hair years ago. Haven't heard their cover of Tuesday's Gone but I like their cover of Turn the Page.

    what is the status of the coyote?

    Season is pretty much year-round and recently expanded to include overnight for half the year. Most folks shoot on sight, and as Patrick mentions a lot of folks just leave them laying. I think this is one point of debate...leaving them lay or "doing something with them." The regs list them under "predatory & fur-bearing mammals." Some folks treat them as a predator and others use or sell the pelts depending on season so treat them as fur-bearers.

    Things your huntin buddies do that drive you nuts : )

    Always fun when this thread gets resurrected...this time of year it's not following through on draw choices or waiting until the last minute to deal with group applications.

    anyone hiring?

    I had nice stuff when I was 20 too...not many bills and could buy what I wanted. But let's get the thread back on track. Good on you looking for work and hope you find something here. Good luck with the firefighting training too and thanks for going into a service field. Good future for you.

    ASNF Stage 2

    I'm afraid you're right. I'll be out there with the family and some friends and already planning on what it takes to comply and be safe...and wondering how many illegal campfires we'll see.

    Garmin Rino 530hcx Issue

    Yeah I had this happen during my turkey hunt. Luckily I noticed and knew where the truck was at the time or it could have been rough.

    State trust land question

    I think it depends on the attitude of whoever checks you...and whether you're actively hunting. And BTW at least around Tucson they've started enforcing the no target shooting rule on state trust land more than before.

    When they close the tonto forest?

    AZGFD announced yesterday that Prescott and Tonto starting Stage II fire restrictions on Friday. Unfortunately I'm sure there will be lots of folks ignoring the restriction or who aren't aware.

    Unit 27 Archery Elk

    I had that tag a couple years ago...tough hunt. Scout a lot, but be prepared because the cows disappear too once the hunt starts. We chased bugles hoping to find bulls with cows with limited success. Other hunters are generally very helpful when they find out you have a cow tag though...we got lots of good tips on areas where the cows had moved. And of course every bull hunter was covers up with cows blowing their stalks...
