  1. If you're intrigued by backpacking, there are a lot of places in 33 where you could hike in a long way and avoid the crowds...but that's honestly true of any of the southern AZ units. Coati is spot on...lots of hunters in the more popular areas, but the deer are still there too until they get shot at a couple of times, then they disappear. Might consider putting in for the 33 hunts (sounds like you are already) and then if you don't draw 33 you can pick up a leftover for one of the other units.

    2 Unit 27 tags filled! My wife's first big game animal. .

    Awesome...I'll be in 27 for the late tag. Hopefully still some gobbling by then. Congrats to your wife on an awesome first kill!
  13. Assuming I have access to the equipment, is reloading shotshells worth it? Any cost savings? Are the primers, powder, etc in same short supply as for rifle and handgun reloading? (Showing my ignorance here...I don't honestly know if the powder and primers are the same or not) I've saved lots of empty hulls and hate to just throw them away, but I don't want to waste my time either if not worth it... Thanks!

    Southeast Tucson trap/skeet range

    Just a quick update here...and a plug for a great facility. Went out there this morning and shot a couple rounds of trap. No comments on how I shot, but had a great time. Check it out if you have a chance...hopefully will expand the hours once better established and more folks shooting. Quite a few folks there today, and even had a couple waiting when we left.

    2014-2015 deer regs.

    I like the archery OTC tag breakdown too. Much easier to read and nice to see Dec archery whitetail hunt in 34a again.

    Amazon best cutomer service

    Have alway had nothing but great customer service from Amazon. Most recently, I ordered the wrong size nerf bars for my truck and they let me exchange with no return shipping charge even though it's not their policy if order the wrong size. I try to support local businesses as much as possible but Amazon is hard to beat!

    WTB diesel auxiliary tank

    I know it's a stretch, but thought I'd throw it out here. Looking for an auxiliary diesel tank for my truck, preferably near Tucson. Toolbox combo would be ideal. Watching craigslist and have missed a couple...let me know if you have one to get rid of... Thanks!

    A little Carp fishing

    TJ are those also sterilized to prevent reproduction? One of my neighbors bought a few and put them in the lake behind the house where I grew up...suckers got huge and I always wanted to shoot them with my bow. My dad told me about the neighbor and kindly suggested that I not shoot them since they weren't common carp. They definitely helped control the lily pads on that lake.
