jeffcros Report post Posted October 26, 2009 Thursday night I met a couple guys I know on the road to Roosevelt. These two have never hunted in AZ for deer before, they were in for a treat. We set up a few cots and got a little rest. We got up early and got to the first hill, the start of a long day hiking. The wind was blowing pretty heavy early. The only thing we glassed were some does in pockets out of the wind. Finally the wind started dying down and glassing was alot better. We came up over a ridge at around 10 and a couple of bucks jumped out of their beds. The first buck made a mistake at 150yds, he stood still just long enough for Brians 243 to shut his lights off. The other buck zigged and zagged and wouldn't give Jesse a good shot. After a long hike these guys were still on top of the world. The only thing that could have been better would be cooler weather. These guys were DONE by time we got back to the truck. We never saw another person where we were the first day. The second day we saw at least 40 vehicles on the road we were on. I even saw a CWT sticker on a White Dodge on FR71. -Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
