We smoked some bacon-wrapped backstraps on Monday. Great flavor but a little chewy. Were yours chewy?

THEN GIVE ME A PERMIT!

Show us an elk on there!

NOT NEARLY ENOUGH!

Who can name the Arizona school that embarrassed the state in their bowl playoff THIS YEAR?

The WM had mentioned that the fawn recruitment had been zero and they were worried that the genetics were depleted by too much inbreeding. The new stocking will really help and that aerial gunning the coyotes just before the fawn drop really helps.

I remember listening to a wildlife manager mention it but I don't think it was as high as 200. I could not find a reference but here is a link to the current project: http://www.azgfd.gov/w_c/documents/13-519-PronghornAntelopeFawnEnhancementGMU34-35.pdf

I would like to mention ASU: congrats on making it to the top 20 at the end of the season. Sure did enjoy the last 2 games.

I did a couple polls and found unwavering support for keeping things the same but the Commisioneers seemed to have made up their minds well before any public input.

I am beginning to wonder about passing my max points to my son in my Will!

That was my permit ... maybe someday. CONGRATS!

Maybe A&E is not so stupid. Have you EVER seen such a great free advertising blitz?

Not from the general tax fund (income, property, etc). The excise tax is on sporting goods and the state money which is requires a match is from hunting licenses and tags. The point is WE as sportsmen are footing the bill and not the "non-users."

Randy Babb talked about the masked Bobwhites at the SAzQF meeting in Sonoita last night. Looks like they are not going to make it unless a miracle happens.

Looks like AE will either bend or lose DD: http://duckcommander.com/news/robertson-family-offical-statement

Unit 27? Congrats. I am jealous.

We found this buck on Monday and got him on Tuesday. Do you recognize him? Specifically you two guys in the Red Ranger? MORE: He scored 114 3/8" gross and 111" net. My buddy got this one with me behind the binos. More later. I spent the rest of the hunt chasing spikes in futility. Full story has to wait for the weekend. But here's a better pic:

The next meeting of the Southern Arizona Chapter of Quail Forever is this coming Thursday 12-19-13 at 7:00 pm at the Steakout in Sonoita. Randy Babb to speak and will be giving us his secret spots (hopefully).

S Az.is all you get. I wanted to know if the other guys had more info on this buck and how long they had been chasing him. Lance

all are sold together to one person

Pulled

So what laws were violated? These are not kittens!

Amazing how docile they look when they are not on the hunt. We had a giant bobcat stalking some whitetail during our deer hunt. DEER FREAKED OUT. They pulled the "look back" that mule deer do. They were not about to let that cat out of their sight. After he knew we was found out, he came out in the open, sunning and preening. Son ranged him at 277 yards which he felt was beyond his range. Pity ... I would have tried anyway. He is such a good boy!
