Thx for the post. Hilarious!

+1 COOSFAN, I beleive way too many people leave animals overnight. It"s a tough call but unless I'm ABSOLUTELY sure of a bad hit, I follow up within an hour or two. Succullent venison is the most important part of a harvest for me. t

I would agree getting involved at Commission meetings is a good thing. The baiting issue is a tough sell to non-hunters (try it sometime). Eventually, non-hunters will likely determine the future of hunting via a ballot initiative advocated by anti-hunters. I believe this is precisely why the G&F will eventually get around to banning bait.

I believe that G&F is primarily concerned with "food" bait. Hopefully, any rule changes will deal with that issue specifically. Salt/minerals are everywhere both natural and artificial. Let that dog sleep.

Sorry boys, baiting on public land is gone. Even if you stop it this go round, it'll be back.

LOL

Awesome rams, thanks for posting the photo's. Congrats to those who drew tags this year.

Litterbox crowd already stirring it up?

I've observed a Coues buck tending a muley doe in 22. Also saw a hybrid doe hanging with muley does in 22. The hybrid had strange looking tail, big like a Coues but had a dark tip like a muley. She also had a light rump patch like a muley. Her coloration was very similar to a Wiemariemer (sp?). Cool looking deer, this deer was seen near the summit of Slate Creek off hwy 87.

No love from AZ G&F. Leftovers aren't too bad.

Go to the source, call Dillon directly.

I like the modular concept. Pricing is obscene, I thought the Euro was tanking.

Hopefully Lark will return. The man knows his stuff.

Tough hunt. Unless you've got a lot of time to scout, you'd do well to try elsewhere.

Cats are definitely wild!!!!! Congrats to the U of A and their fans.

Cats go wild! Congrats on earning the finals.

Hopefully the cats can stay wild. Suspect they'll end up mild.

It would appear AZSWC has our Governor's ear. Not good in this particular instance. We must keep any bills giving tags away off her desk.

Got the same email. Apparently all the groups listed approve of AZSWC's lobbying tactics. An issue that concerns me is the fishing groups. AZSWC can claim fisherman numbers & organizations when lobbying for hunting issues. I wonder if our legislators know the difference. I doubt AZSWC has EVER lobbied a dedicated fishing issue at the legislature. Fishing groups could unknowingly buoy AZSWC's existence. Do you suppose AZSWC is pursuing fishing groups for this purpose?

Thank you all for your vigilance.

The silence of AZSWC principals is deafening. It would appear Hamberlin and the rest of the board have greatly misjudged the mood of most AZ Sportsmen. Knowing this, AZSWC presses on furthering their own demise. I am hoping that additional Sportsmans organizations renounce their affiliation with AZSWC. I've lost any respect I had for these people, they have defined themselves. I'd like to recgnize those of you who have worked to keep the rest of us informed. You've done well. Thank you.

I also have a T-3 with the EGW rail. Like it a lot.

Well put Sir. X2

Sent another PM.

Used to carry a rod/reel to check tanks for fish. Back in the day quite a few tanks would have bass, catfish but usually bluegills. Sadly, not too many tanks seem to hold fish these days. Too bad, it's alway a good time pulling on fish.
