Here is a couple from yesterday.

These binos are like new and include everything they came with from factory. I am the original owner and have carried them off and on over the years I need to downsize and these get used the least. Very minor handling mark on body (see pic #5) but glass is perfect. $1750 $1600 $1500 Now $1400 OBO and prefer face to face sale. Located in NW Tucson. 520-237-9643

I won this in a raffle and originally planned to sell it to my brother, but his situation changed. Since I’m not an ATV guy, my loss is your gain! This machine is basically fresh off the lot with only 1 mile and 1.1 hours of operating time—just enough for a quick spin around the neighborhood before parking it in the garage. • 420cc engine • Five-speed manual with reverse • One-year warranty still in place • After tax at a dealership you’d pay around $7,828 I’m located in the West Valley, 303/Bell. $6,100

Saw my first gen 6 in the wild yesterday, pretty clean looking.

Those are big ones, congrats!!

We should be having another classroom class in mid-/late-July and, hopefully, again in November. We should also start running an online field day for online students taking the hybrid course (not fully online) every month April-Oct. I know there is an online field day here April 12, that should go public tomorrow. Keep in touch with me and I can get you all the info you need.

Awesome birds!!!

You should be able to sell well at auction as Smith & Wesson ammunition has become more of a collectible. The boxes are pristine which show to be better than what I have found online.

Nice! Great birds

Very nice looking Ruger semi auto 44 mag carbine. Located south Tempe area $1000

This makes no sense The wheels that come on a half ton are not rated for the 3000+ pounds that a load range E tire can take. They hold up better in the rocks but you don't need to run 80 psi Your wheel bearings and springs can't take 6000# either. I run Es on both of my F150s but I have never inflated above 50 psi. I can't imagine how rough it would ride.

I miss the $5.25, $2.50, $0.25 prices from 30yrs ago. DAN

Ya i got a decent pile and want them sold fast .not work at selling but was thinking $14lb or higher for browns

I have exact rife from Germany in that caliber love it

Here is a couple from yesterday. Double. Not one gobble. 40 birds 12 gobblers, strutting like crazy but not a peep. Thank you to those who gave tips..

Was a good run by ASU

Is $7k+ worth it for 30”?

In April 2024, I was fortunate to draw an off-range oryx tag for March 2025. I’ve had a whirlwind year since drawing and timing couldn’t have been better for the hunt. With that said, we encountered severe winds with no sign of letting up, which made things challenging. With the wind gusts, everything was bedded. Due to the flat terrain, glassing for extended periods was unproductive. We would glass and go, glass and go, constantly moving. The wind gusts were so brutal that any tracks on the ground were erased, making it easier to gauge a fresh track. So we changed plans and drove roads looking to cut tracks which we eventually did. We found a group of three at about 400 yards and they had us pegged. This happened twice more with the ranges increasing each time. They eventually had enough of us and bolted. Fast-forward to the late evening, and we were able to find the same group again at 1000 yards. They had picked up another oryx, and they were now four, with only one being unbroken. A long stalk later and I had my oryx. Five minutes later, it was pitch dark. Good luck to everyone on the upcoming NM draw!

I constantly had people tell me how amazing oryx was as table fare. I enjoyed the tenderloins and backstrap trim for lunch the other day. This is the best wild game meat I've ever had. Fresh rosemary, garlic, Dijon, sea salt and black pepper then grilled over pecan.

Well on the initial elk draw we drew 0/4 tags……we were absolutely bummed!!!! Mailed 4 individual apps for 5BN limited cow hunts from Tucson on Thursday, all weekend I was thinking did it get there early and they kicked it out or did make there today. Well I checked my portal today at 4:30….boom tag #13-hunt 3812 10/17-23 drawn for myself. Asked my daughter to check her portal….boom tag 3811 10/10-16 for her. Asked my youngest boy checked his portal….boom tag #12-hunt 3812 10/17-23. So back to back hunts for us three. So far 3 for 4. My oldest is on his way home to check his account🤞, just maybe!!!!!

Wanted to share a short video I just put together of our 2024 hunts. Not much to it...5 kills and a couple missed shots. I'm still getting over the miss on that last buck. Missing a buck like that will give a hunter nightmares for the rest of their life. I'm just glad it wasn't me doing the missing for once 😜

Thank you for starting this tread. As the wildlife manager/ Field Supervisor in Unit 3C for 26 yrs. I saw the end of the horse capturing that the Heber Ranger (Black Mesa) Dist was doing, and the results. It saddens, and angers me to see what these horses have done to the habitat in not only that unit, but also Unit 1. Specifically, the Kettel Holes area. that area has been decimated and all those meadows have been converted from grass land community to noxious weeds. Any business in the white mountains that supports the horses should defiantly be boycotted, especially by hunters, or anyone interested in sound forest management. There is no place on public land for even one feral horse. Besides the habitat issues, thats a lot of high-quality protein on the hoof, that could feed a lot of people!
