Dennis, As I mentioned earlier in this thread, anyone can view photos in this forum without becoming a member. Just log out and come back and click on a thread to see. The only time you have to become a member is to post or upload photos. If you are not seeing photos in a thread it could be that the person removed them. Sometimes that is why you might see a red X. But otherwise, unless there is something on your computer blocking the images, you can view any photo posted here without becoming a member. Amanda

Congatulations Tyler!! You guys look good together!! Amanda

I put this cam out trying to get another look at the big 7x6 elk I got a pic of previously. Didn't see him (or did I??? see my post with the earlier pic of him below and let me know if you think it's the same bull), but the card filled in three days, so might have missed him. did get lots of other stuff including the cutest little WT fawns.

Sorry you didn't get him Jed, but I know you hunted hard and made some great memories!! Good luck on your elk hunt you lucky dog!! Amanda

Thanks for bringing him out of the woodwork Jade. Congratulations Elkhunter!! We hope to see some pics of you and your new bride enjoying hunting and fishing in the great state of AZ soon! Amanda

I wish AGFD allowed people to salvage roadkill (as I understand it they only allow the person who hit the deer to keep it, not someone who comes upon it later). It seems such a waste. Your rib roll recipe sounds great! Love the description of "swirled layers of greatness" Amanda

GREAT buck Dick!! I am so happy for you! That antelope does have some amazing character and I can imagine how hard it was staying in that blind in the heat. Don't think I could have done it. I hate hunting in the heat. But I love antelope meat and that sure is a fine trophy!! Congratulations! Hey, I don't remember getting any beach pics?? hehehehe Amanda

Wow, I feel for you. And I will pray for you. Constant pain is not something easily dealt with and it surely will wear on any relationship. I can't imagine giving up what you love, but perhaps you can just find a way to do it that isn't so hard on your body. Hunt smarter somehow. Smaller mountains, ground blinds, something that can get you out but not be so hard on your joints. Let your friends help you more by carrying some of your gear or packing out more of the animal. There is no shame in leaning on friends. Just remember, most everyone loves to help someone and you are just giving them the opportunity to help. It's hard to accept that help sometimes, but think about all the times you gave someone help and how it made you feel; it's a good feeling isn't it? Hang in there! Amanda

Very cool memorial in the hills. Must be tough losing a father so young. I look forward to the memorial to him on this site. Amanda

Hope you meet your goal!!! Amanda

Outstanding!! Congratulations and good luck with the elk!! Amanda

Nice memories for sure! Thanks for posting the pics. Amanda

How are you trying to post photos? A little more info and I might be able to help you with this. Amanda

Glad you ID'd yourself elkhunter, I didn't know who he was talking about. So, what you weren't going to share your wedding news with us? Amanda

????? That's some odd stuff right there.... Amanda

I would call AGFD and ask to speak to someone who heads up the landowner/access program. Maybe this person is the place to start: For additional information or questions on the Access Program Please contact Al Eiden, Private Lands Stewardship Coordinator at (623) 236-7624 or aeiden@azgfd.gov. Also, you might look up in the meeting minutes for the landowner/sportsman relations committee. You might find some info in there. http://www.azgfd.gov/outdoor_recreation/la...committee.shtml

Interesting idea.... Amanda

From Eddy Corona: Hello everyone I hope that the summer heat has treated everyone fair. Today I am writing to invite everyone to come out and support a good cause. If you play golf or are just a hack like myself then this is a great opportunity for you. On September 26th the Ryan Thomas Foundation is having their First Annual Ryan Thomas Foundation Memorial Golf Tournament. You will be treated to dinner, silent auction and door prizes with a live band. The Ryan Thomas Foundation is also a great supporter of the Outdoor Experience 4 All. They are donating some of the proceeds to OE4A that we will use to help out with this years camp. OE4A is going to put on about 15 more hunting and fishing camps for Arizona children. Please visit the web site at http://www.TheRyanThomasFoundation.com and read the story about Mr. Ryan Thomas. If you are not a golfer you can still help with a sponsorship or donations. Thank You for Your Support, Eddy Corona Outdoor Experience 4 All 480-529-8340

Congratulations!! That's awesome!! Amanda

Wow!! Nice job!! that's a great buck and nice job sticking it out to find him after the shot! Amanda

I do some reading. Those are some of the times I really appreciate the small camo bible I got from Desert Christian Archers. It's easy to pack and of course always has something interesting to read in it. Amanda

+2 Ha I got the same message and did not care for it. I have asked him to not PM users in this forum, since many don't care for PMs like that. Hopefully he is not doing that anymore. Amanda

LOL!!!

It does look like you are figuring it out. One thing I find that helps me is that I focus the camera by half pressing the button down while holding it up to the binos or scope and then use the fine focus on the binos/scope to make the image in the LCD panel on the camera be in focus. Also, if you apply the "unsharp mask" in adobe photoshop element to your pics afterward you can sharpen them up. There are probably other programs that can do this also. Amanda

Nicely done AGFD. It was time. Amanda
