vegasjeep Report post Posted November 1, 2005 Well if anyone was down at the drywell off Ruby rd. I was the one camped their. WE rolled in late Wednesday night and set up camp. WE scouted a little Thursday and was set for Friday. WE went out in the morning and evening and jumped a ocuple smaller bucks but they were gone before we could draw. The same thing went for Saturday morning. WE left from Ajax and looped around and jumped lots of does and a couple bucks but no shot chance. Saturday night I went to Arivaca lake area and found a great place with NO OTHER hunters. Was on a hill less then 10 minutes when my buck started climbing a hill opposite of me and i shot three times only to have him duck in the bushes. At 300 yards out i saw his antlers poke up with his chin. I aimed a little lower and back for his neck area and took him right where he stood with one shot to the neck. He was a very nice 3x3 and was scored at 90. I dropped the head off in Tucson at the World famous Doyles and the meat at my butcher. mount will be about 10 months out and it was the second biggest of the first hunt he had recieved as of this evening. He had a nice mulie that someone cut right behind the ears and wanted a shoulder mount. it was sad. Itr was someone who got luvky and not a hunter. Chopped a great headmount.... All in all a great hunt. To bad for all the illegals. WE saw four groups of 25+ illegals on the super highway as well as two groupls being escorted by Border patrol. LOTS of trash form these dirtbags as well. WE had some people camping abovge us and they drew down on a buck only to have two illegals pop over a ridge about 10 feet away and jump the bucks over the ridge. heres two pics.

tucsonbill Report post Posted November 1, 2005 I'm glad to see you all didn't get skunked. Looks like a nice one! I'll let you know how my wife and I do down there. Maybe things will settle down a bit in that general location in a couple of weeks. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
