It’s on YouTube, anybody can see it...I figured I would share it on here to help some of the Az guys out. I assumed most people on this site are from AZ. Maybe not?

Riesop Report post Posted January 7, 2021 Man, I hate when youtube puts this stuff up, it's already swamped with nonresidents out there. Just wait, I bet in the next year there are a lot of changes to the over the counter tags which will affect residents and non residents. Can't just keep selling tags to thousands upon thousands of people. The mule deer population is already hurting. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because from the outside looking in it looks like an advertisement for a guild service/“scouting service “ catering to out of state otc hunter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuma Outdoorsman Report post Posted January 11, 2021 Anybody hunting? Got on 3 groups of does Friday but none had bucks. Did see one buck solo but he saw me before I saw him so that ended quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UggRedBilly Report post Posted January 11, 2021 Today in 37B we had a buck rutting on some does. Found a tank near by them and plan on sitting water on Wednesday and Saturday! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sobrbiker Report post Posted January 14, 2021 One lone wide but not tall 4x at 3/4 mile cruising desert last weekend. I watched him for an hour-no other deer in sight. Newer adult onset hunter, so I put a move on him even though he bedded in a bunch of trees and I couldn’t pinpoint him-mainly to see if I could get from glassing point to a spot that far solo. Pretty sure I heard him bust out about 60-80yds from him without ever seeing him. Found his bed though...good experience, I’ll be back out tomorrow through Monday! sorry for crappy pic, had wrong case for phoneskope (another lesson learned). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Report post Posted January 14, 2021 Last Saturday, rut occuring for certain, with some big ones, and some small ones. Crawled into some thicker stuff, got 30 yards away, looking at an eyeball, an ear, a leg. Eventually the buck tried to determine what I was as I made a mistake and thought I had to get off my hands and knees to navigate a little one foot drop off. Wrong move. That one second "hunched over" move probably blew it. Bow hunting...one second of poor decisions, and that is that. Using a stickbow, so the windows of opportunities beyond 25 yards were not good for me. Dry out here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UggRedBilly Report post Posted January 16, 2021 I was in 37B the last 3 days! It was awesome! 3 does at a tank. Then the next day I had a buck that was spooked by something, run from behind me in my blind. I had about a 30 yard running shot if I wanted to take it, but I wasnt confident i would make the shot so I passed! We stopped at about 80 yards away and was huffing and snorting in all directions for a few minutes then walked away. A few hours later in the afternoon I walked back to where he had stopped and saw scratching marks in the ground and he had peed on a few piles of poop too. This morning I go back there and to my suprise my water hole had turned into a mud bog for some people during the night. Looks like a few got stuck too!
