No, the client carried the elk by himself to the vehicle. I am sure they traveled separately and the client rented a truck, just so jed would not be held accountable for taking him to the reservation. When I pay 5 or 6 figures for an elk hunt. I want to make sure the guide watches me carry the elk.

I had kinda the same experience with him a few weeks ago on a Mexico Deer Hunt. Myself and my best friend booked a fully guided coues deer hunt in Mexico. Paid $6500 each. We got to see every corner of the ranch every day. We drove from spot to spot glassing and seeing the same dang 2 point deer over and over. FML. The food was so nasty the ranch dogs probably gained 10lbs in 4.5 days. Steve himself took my best friend. oh ya he split us up. And pressured him into shooting a 2 point buck with crab claws maybe a 80 in deer. I kindly told Steve that i did not think there was a reason for me to hunt the last day. He told me he would still go out. i said ok. ill stay and help clean ticks off the hide for my friend. He got so offended over night that he told us we were leaving early because he didnt want to hang out. Then he left us at the end of the ranch road for us to find our way back.

No defense for A3. Plenty of A3 guides have been busted by AZGFD so your special treatment of A3 is garbage. Here's the bottom-line Adams and his client are on a "buck of a lifetime" Nicks own words. They determine the only way to kill the buck is to shoot from the road and it was at that time they choose to break the rules and shoot from the road rather than let the buck go.

Finished this huge Stone Sheep tonight. It's freaking Awesome!!!!!

Thats your defense now of A3 now? "I wasn't there, we're you?" I am just making the comparison for the precedent. Either, there's a new sheriff in town or certain people/companies get special exemptions from the rules that are enforced.

Sent you a msg I’m interested

Took a few years to figure out this unit. Not a good unit. Scouted a big buck this summer. Saw him 2 days before season but not again for 3 days during season. Crafty old sucker. Bears like flies. Not for the faint of heart unit. It sucks. Big buck scouted. Caught this buck stretching at 130 PM, 20 minutes after my nap, Day 2 of 5 of hunt but day 5 for me as NM has 5 day seasons and I got there early. Thought he was my big guy and he was in a good spot for an open sighted muzzleloader with very few deer in this unit. Gotta go get there in case I said. Got setup at 75 yards after a sporty stalk. Great setup with some rocks in front, perfect. I still couldn't tell exactly what he was as he was tight in the trees with 83 degree highs. But I was hoping he was my guy as this area was smack in the middle of the big guys home range. Opportunities are not many in NM for sure.... Sat on him for 4 hours at 75 yards and still couldn't ID what exactly he was other than a good buck. Finally, he got up to feed a bit and I realized he wasn't the big guy but dang with a big wind storm coming in and at 75 yards I assessed him fast and said he's pretty good. He wouldnt turn so I shot him hard, hard quarter to. Shot him at 75 with a 275 grain Barnes. Heart shot him but I didn't know with the BH 209 smoke . He went a full 100 yards and it was a bloodbath. No idea how he went that far. He's got ear and brisket wrinkles and his teeth match that. He's at least 6 I think if not older. Maybe older. He's likely as good as he's gonna get, likely. I'm happy with him even though the big boy is a class above. Inspired by Kev...

Well my uncle and I drew muzzy tags and neither of us had high expectations, but I was able to kill on the last morning of the hunt. We drew in a unit we know pretty well, so we were optimistic that at least one of us would bring home some tamale meat. Overall was a fun hunt but a few challenges and wrenches came up up of course. We’d find bucks way out there and try to come up with a plan, just in time to watch them decide to move out into the unknown. We hunted bucks we knew we’re in an area just to bust em out. Had a family emergency that pulled me off the mountain for a day plus. Last day everything worked out and I got a shot at this guy and now we have our tamales! A much better buck than I was expecting or hoping for. I hope the pics turn out with this post and not sideways.

Would you take $200?

How do you think he got it off the reservation? My guess would be transport of illegally taken game.

Man what a blessed week! To have the opportunity to go to desert. Have you guys seen the desert lately? So beautiful! Beautiful weather! And to have the ability to harvest a beautiful buck, man I'm...I have no words, I'm just so thankful! Then I go to one of the metro units and took a javalina with my bow! Wow! Happy Birthday to me I guess! Thank you Lord for the opportunity and the ability!

There was a bergara on here a few days ago

Did I read or watch it wrong?? from what I saw he wasn't even with the hunter??? So how would he know with an ABSOLUTE certainty that he shot from the road.

At the time, he did not know it was an illegal. Kill

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but facts are facts. Posting frivolous arguments to diminish those facts are obvious attempts at damage control. There's nothing shady, messy, corrupt or nefarious about charging and convicting a hunting guide for having an illegally taken animal in his vehicle.

Heading to Jersey hope to have another for you.

Awesome rangfinder! I have the same one and killed my bull this year at 700 yds thanks to it. Plus we ranged it and dropped the waypoint into OnX and went almost straight it it. Good luck with the sale.
