120 whitetail! I think your vote might be a bit biased given the audience here are mostly diehard Coues fans!

Lots of rain and wind and an unbelievable lightning show here in Globe last night too! My poor dog Julie took to hiding in the bathtub because she was so scared.

Most likely, yes you can go with them. But it's up to the parents of the person who gets the tag and the organization you donate to. Most people who donate a tag do so because they can't go on the hunt, so it's not very common for the original tag holder to go along on the hunt. But the more people there to help the better! and yes, Hunt of a lifetime is another group that does good works with donated tags. What you can do with these groups is call them and ask them if they will be able to use the tag. Some hunts require different physical abilities and it's good to find out if they have a kid or wounded warrior they think can actually use the tag.

neat pic!

great pose on that bobcat! neat mount!

Both are great products! Personally I prefer the Jim White head to a pistol grip, but it's really a personal decision for everyone. Try both side by side and see how which you like best.

Yes, it's a garter snake. Not sure exactly which species, but all garter snakes are non-venomous. Black-necked is the most common. Kind of depends where you were in the state. here is a great website for snake and amphibian info: http://www.reptilesofaz.org/snakes.html

I can't think of his name or the name of his vineyard at the moment. But a couple years ago we were talking about potentially hosting a CW get together there. Maybe he will see this and post up. Or hopefully I can find his contact info in an old PM or email.

Unbelievable buck and great life-size mount! I am sure Broc will enjoy that mount for years to come!

Love the bear pics! Nice blonde!!

One of those wineries in Camp Verde is owned by a coueswhitetail forum member.....maybe it's worth a detour....

Thanks for posting this. I am sure there are people looking for work.

Thanks for taking the time to donate your tag. For those still wondering OE4A is Outdoor Experience For All, a great organization that takes a lot of kids with illnesses hunting. Now they will be taking wounded warriors on hunts too. http://www.outdoorexperienceforall.org/

Wow! Nice pics Brian!

Looks like a juvenile red-tailed hawk. Would have been born this year. Neat photos!

Great pic Patrick!! that's really a rare pic to get on trail camera!! I don't think I have gotten a snake on cam yet.

Buenos Aires Wildlife refuge has some good camping areas not far from the highway that is the boundary for 36a, b and c. Or lots of open camping areas on any of the roads leading into the mtns of 36c.

Not sure what unit you are considering, but the prickly pear fruit on some places on the San Carlos Reservation looked to be very abundant this week. that was at about 5500 feet elevation.

Nice group! Good idea to keep it to 10 shots or less. You don't want to push too hard and undue the progress you have made.

definitely call Duwane and see if you can take a glassing class from him. He is a great person to learn from! here is a link to the book I believe you are asking about http://store.coueswhitetail.com/how-to-hunt-coues-deer-book/

Thanks for the info Dale!

It's always fun to track a buck through the years!

Neat antler! Looks like a mule deer to me.

So my husband and I like to go out after monsoon rains and look for frogs, toads and snakes that become active after the monsoon starts. The other day we had a HUGE storm in Globe. Friends with a rain gauge say we got 2.5 inches in that one storm! It was intense, with tons of lightning/thunder, hail and rain. That evening while grilling in the backyard we heard what sounded like frogs calling. We had not heard that before in our neighborhood. So we went out looking for them. Turns out there was a big temporary pool of water across the highway from us and it had lots of Couch's spadefoots calling and searching for mates. here is a video of the event. They are cute little toads. http://youtu.be/Q2Xp1hOOrXY For those that can't watch the video, here are some pics. We saw three species of toads that night, the Sonoran Desert Toad (also called Colorado River Toad), the Red-spotted Toad and the Couche's spadefoot toad. We even found one confused spadefoot trying to breed with the much larger Sonoran Desert Toad! Comical!
