nmurray10 Report post Posted November 22, 2021 Hi guys new to this forum. Have been part of the Arizona Hunting Forum (formerly Arizona Hunting Today) for the last 10 or so years, and thought I’d join this one too. Has anyone taken advantage of the yearlong OTC archery hunt for javelina? I’m intrigued, as I live in Fountain Hills, and the McDowells are one of the areas that’s open to archery all year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
