Wayno you have went and used a factual artical,l that will screw up everything on here(lol).

Wow a hundred lions in that small patch and you guy's that live down there cant glass them up and kill a lion. I would think that should be the most popular spot in AZ for the guy's that want to kill a lion(lol). I do have to agree it does not sound like this was planned out well.

You guys that deer hunt near there should be excited. The deer hunting should get better with all those cats gone.

I like the way your story sounded you were more excited than alot of guys are when they take monster bulls.That is why I like to take new hunters more than to actually hunt myself anymore.

Good luck Wade. Congrats on the tag.

So my question is this. What should have been done? Should the game and fish never try to reestablish herds? Would a all out blitz on lions before a stocking just cause a media nightmare? I'm just wondering what all you guy think should have happened. I like the idea of having herds reestablished but not at the expense of loosing so many animals with little chance of survival.

Nope, looks just like a big coues with a forked g2.

Do they have any projects in the 15's scheduled

See now this is Coues whitetail at it's best at least we can all agree on something and that there are worse things than the Az game and fish.

I have hung alot of whites in trees or just hung them when hunting with plans to return and get them later. Some times they are there and some time they are gone when I get back.

Snapshot if you had bothered going to any of the meetings when they were discussing the increase you would have seen their justification. I don't agree with all they they do, however if this was controlled by a private company only the rich would hunt. The prices in the private world would be driven by what people were willing to pay and there's enough money out there to drive some stupid prices for the tags we have in this state.

There is no 10% guaranteed for non resident. They can only draw up to 10% of the bull tags in a area. If 10% dont draw then they don't draw.

You no Lucafu1 you can request a copy of your application from the game and fish. I swore one time my wife should of had a bull tag as I knew what I put on the app they provided me a copy of my app and sure as crap I had put down the wrong number. That is why I like the on line draw system when I get done I know its right.

Wow I use to watch every morning. I remember when we would prank call friends about winning a ladmo bag.

Congrats, enjoy your time as they grow up fast.

Great job Lance. Taking new kids hunting is always a great experience.

All the geese I killed on tonto creek many years ago were spot and stalk. We use to drive the road and glass the river and stalk the ducks and geese.

How many coues guys are going to count their can of beans now?

For the most part their buying power of state contracts would not allow the buying of used vehicles. As tax payers if you wanted the departments to use used vehicles you would have to get the legislature to mandate that agencies purchase used vehicles. They also do not spend what a new vehicle cost the gen public they are bought at fleet pricing as they have to put out for bid what they want to buy. Their are so may rules on state agencies buying things that are all dictated by the politicians.

I would be worried in 16 or so years when you put out a hit list on whether or not it was for elk or the boys. Congrats kids are awesome.

I also heard there there was trail cam pics but the sd card was stolen before they could post them. Theya also shot it off a knob that someone else had already claimed that they parked there off road vehicle on.

It's up and running

Monsoon season carry a small tarp and make a small pond out of it. Makes a great way to catch alot of water if you are base camping out of a area.

That's awesome Will.

It's just like elk rutting the other bucks would be considered the satelite bucks. They are hoping to sneek in and steal a doe. Get yourself a doe in estrus can and a grunt call. The grunt call will stop a buck for the shot and can sometimes get them right up to you. The can will get the does coming towards you dragging the bucks with them.
