I highly recommend Hunting Trips of a Ranchman and the Wilderness Hunter by Teddy Roosevelt, if you have not already browsed: https://www.amazon.com/Hunting-Trips-Ranchman-Wilderness-Hunter/dp/0679602348/ref=sr_1_24?ie=UTF8&qid=1532041238&sr=8-24&keywords=theodore+roosevelt+hunting I have only read sections of it, but it's excellent.

LOL. I'm sure stranger has happened.

And with what happened in Flint, we can all be concerned that it could happen anywhere.

Sounds like a good time. Until DesertBull posted. LOL. Keep us posted MulePackHunter but please no Brokeback sequels.

Echo Bill's comments.

Filson wool long johns, top or bottom. And Filson wool gloves. With regular camo hunting long-sleeve t-shirt and pants. I remove or wear one and/or both depending upon conditions. Filson wool jac-shirt. Wool gets heavy but this stuff is actually pretty light and packable. Expensive too :-( but I've had it for years so it lasts. I've tried synthetic over and over again but it is often just as expensive, doesn't last, and is very noisy. Once I went to light weight wool I have never gone back.

LOL. I bet it was fantastic. Temps in Phoenix are almost 132 degrees for two hours. Maybe you would call it medium rare.

Love it. It's so simple would love to see a pic of it so my over complicating brain can get it. LOL. Also there are a lot of great threads on this. I like Outdoorsmans packs but there are plenty of good choices (and bad ones!).

You're welcome. The member "metau's" post above has numbers along the same lines, but slightly more info for the few previous years as well.

Dang. Lost Dogs are depressing :-( Hope she finds it. I rotated it for you TJ. Strange, I've noticed some pictures don't post correctly unless the width is longer than the height. If the height is longer than the width, sometimes it rotates the pic sideways :-(

It is very cool!! I am still trying to get a bear with my bow. LOL. Way to kick butt.

I sure miss those higher numbers...likely gone forever.

Bummer. Sorry to hear. Looks like a nice unit down there!

Yeah, weird Just curious, was that a couple years ago? I'm looking at the leftover list for 2017 in the Arizona Coues Deer section that someone posted, and looking at this year's list. I don't see anything for 29 in either year. I could be missing something, too. Thanks.

OK. So just dumping the numbers into Excel really quick: 2017 General Deer: 1508 2018 General Deer: 1614 At least for General Deer, 106 more leftover tags this year. Lonne

Peaking at 2 gallons a day with aggressive exercise in June. And somehow 2 cups of coffee still makes me feel dehydrated. LOL. As soon as the monsoon and humidity in July hits it starts dropping to maybe 1/2 gallon or a gallon in December/January.

sweet videos for sure.

Thanks for posting this. I haven't looked at the list yet; but last year there were just over 2400 tags available on the leftover list - and G&F put out a statement the other day stating there were over 2400 leftover tags. If what I saw and read here is accurate, then it is about the same. And I'm not sure the 2400 they stated this year was all deer tags.

Great job and that bear is beautiful! Awesome face on the bear!!

I tried Atkins / keto for awhile once. It was awesome. Like said above ate all the steak and bacon I wanted. Felt fuller faster, lost weight. Maybe the only negative I could remember was: occasionally I felt shaky.

super cool pics. Thanks for posting! I remember the post about that close border encounter...that one pic looks a little too close for comfort. LOL.

Anyone know any info about this? https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona-environment/2018/06/22/jaguar-roamed-arizona-mountains-feared-dead/726804002/

Sweet...it was kind of cool and monsoon-feeling windy late yesterday afternoon where I live in the Phoenix area...rain is coming! Soon I hope

I didn't see this thread until now, but heard the news. Indeed Bill was a great guy! Purchased one of his books and now sounds like a great time to read. My memory of Bill was following his many posts on here. Then one weekend several years ago I was out elk hunting and ran into him by accident as we were both driving down a less traveled small road opposite directions mid-day, couldn't do much but stop and talk. When he told me who he was I instantly knew and was excited to meet in person. He gave me some good tips and shared stories of how his hunt was going, and we were both not having much luck but working hard. It was a cow elk hunt and all we were seeing was big bulls (when usually all we see are cows everywhere). We were laughing miserably about it. I ran into him a 2nd time on that hunt, and we were both going home empty handed, but we had some really good stories to swap. God bless his soul.
