    CC Hits

    My buddy got hit for $114 so he drew elk. Nothing on mine so no speedgoat for me. My elk group is on another guy's card and havent heard from him so still a glimmer of hope...

    Elk/Antelope results

    Good thing you updated or you'd have been screwed. I read somewhere on the site that specifically said even if you drew a tag and reults were posted it would be void if the credit card didn't go through. That would really suck to get results online only to find out it got rejected.

    Does anyone know when the 2012 draw results will be in by?

    No later than April 20 according to the AZGFD website...for what that's worth.

    Online elk draw

    You should have been charged $7.50 at the time of your application. Won't get charged for the tag until after the draw. You're not out yet...at least I hope not since I haven't been charged either.

    Awesome buck and great story. Even better that you could share the experience with your son.

    Desert shed hunting advice

    I've never done any shed hunting...have come across them by chance before, but was not actually looking for them. I haven't had a chance to look through this forum very much, but wondering what advice folks might have for desert shed hunting in the Southern AZ units? Are there specific areas where you tend to find sheds more often, or is it more a matter of just getting out there and covering a lot of ground? Thanks!

    Online Draw

    Put mine in with my hunting partner on Tuesday after our last day hunting muleys...fingers crossed! System worked great..I love the online system.
  14. I've always really liked gadgets, especially hunting gadgets. When I first heard about the ArmourDillo, I was shooting with my friend Nathan and he saw me setting my bow on top of my foot instead of the ground...he told me I needed an ArmourDillo and showed me one. I immediately thought "Now why didn't I think of that?" This is a cool new gadget being produced by Hedog Archery, a Tucson company started by Nathan and Paul Lawson. If you live in Tucson or hunted archery elk in Unit 27 in September, you've probably seen Nathan's recognizable camo 4runner with Hedog logos on it. The concept is simple and effective. It's almost like a foot that goes on the bottom of your bow to protect your bottom cam from rocks, sand, mud, whatever you don't want to set it in. One of my hunting buddies calls it my kickstand for my bow. It's already gone from cool gadget to necessity for me. I've only had mine for a couple of weeks, but has already come in handy on a couple of stalks. I was able to set my bow down with minimal movement and lean it against my leg while quickly glassing with both hands..even with an arrow nocked. I always wonder about new gadgets on my bow adding weight, noise, vibration, etc. The weight of the ArmourDillos is minimal, no vibration, and it actually seems to help with vibration dampening. Check out www.hedogarchery.com to see this new idea. I've talked to Nathan about becoming a CWT sponsor, so maybe you'll see them on here soon too. I'll edit and post pics of my ArmourDillo soon...hopefully laying across a buck!

    Red jeep in 36A

    Glassed up a red jeep with CWT.com sticker in 36A today while I was looking for muleys...just thought I'd say hi. Hope you had better luck than I did.

    Cool new gadget by a local company

    Added a photo...hopefully will have a better one after trying to finish the season right. No effect on performance that I can tell. Doesn't touch the cam, string, or anything else and no effect on balance.
