Craig I would rather read a DIY hunting story, that is the way that 90% of us hunt. I know the way that you and your friends grew up hunting and the work that goes into the DIY hunting, it is much more rewarding to hunt this way. Your magazine is a resource that is a must for any one that hunts in Arizona. Keep up the good work thanks.

I saw a picture of the buck it is 88 and change. Very fine lope.

I herd that Vaquers Outfitters took hunter in unit 9 and killed a good buck this weekend with the governs tag. Any one seen pictures yet?

All the tanks were full or very near full several on the west side were over full. On the east side the tanks on the Babbit were nearly full, it was raining when we left around noon on sunday.

We went up last wekend and spent three days looking around, saw lots of young bucks with the does on the flatts on the west side. Nothing that we judged to be over 80 in. Two might come close to 80 but mass is not there. Don't think the mature bucks have moved into the area with the does. As for deer we only saw one doe by her self, and no turkeys. We only spent half of sunday on the east side, spent most of our times on the south and east. Most of the deer that we usually see are north of that area in the Bucklar area.

Thanks we will be up this weekend for three days. Starting on the west side. Then moving to the south and east. Any other information would be appreaciated. Thanks.

Any word on rainfall in unit 9? We have two (2) tags and have not herd if the tanks are filling up.My brother and I both drew tags, we had 21 and 18 points, any body else? We will be going up in about 10 days to look over the conditions.

Great Bull, the mass is unbelievable, what unit and story please.

Great Bull!!!

It is good to hear that the elk are starting to turn on a little, we start next week in 6A, hope to see the action pick up. Good Luck!!!

PM sent

We are planning to start on the west side in 6A west.

I have a brother that has a muzzle loader tag at the end of sept. We have not been up in a few day and dont want to mes up the archery hunters. Just wondering if they elk are into the rut very hard in the unit. We are heading up this weekend to set up camp. If anybody has any information I would appreaciate it.
