Please help me welcome our newest sponsor, High Point Outfitters! Check out their website and their Youtube channel. http://www.highpointoutfitters.net/ http://www.youtube.com/user/HighPointOutfitters?feature=watch High Point Outfitters is co-owned by Kevin Call, Blake Call and John Adams. They started their guiding business in 2008 and have had great success since then. They specialize in Elk, Antelope, Mule Deer and Coues Deer. They guide between 18-24 clients each year and had 20 hunters in 2013. They guide exclusively in Arizona (no Mexico or NM hunts). Because they live up in Flagstaff, they know the northern units very well. Although their focus the last several years have been on Elk, Antelope and Mule Deer, they now have on staff a couple Coues guides (Chris Barreras and Ben Sandall) who can provide great Coues hunts for units 6A, 6B, 8, 22 and 23. High Point Outfitters can provide whatever type of camp the hunter desires. Normally they use trailers and wall tents and have a great cook on staff. Owner Kevin Call said, "We provide both guide only hunts and fully outfitted hunts where the hunter can just bring their gun and sleeping bag. We pick them up at the Flagstaff airport and we take care of everything. Depending on the hunt we provide all transportation including Quads for some units. We stay in trailers and wall tents. We provide showers every day with warm comfortable accommodations so people can hunt hard every day. We provide first class meals that include our opening day Steaks and ice cream and Dutch oven cobbler. Hard to beat. We have been told by more than a few of our hunters that we provide a first class camp and the best they have ever stayed in. We believe in being comfortable." I called several of their past clients and these are the types of comments I heard about HPO service: "Highly professional!!" "Good family people!" "Great knowledge of the hunt unit!" "Very personable and professional!" "Highly recommended!" "Fantastic!" "Perfect hunt!" These guides are dedicated to making your hunt the best it can be. They work hard to try and get record book animals on every hunt. They guide archery and rifle hunters. When I asked about their success rate, here is what Kevin said, "I am a CPA by trade so I do keep stats. I think we need to have some basis for seeing how we are doing. With that said we do have some trophy hunters that would prefer to hunt the full hunt and not punch their tag without taking home the best animal that they have available to them. We have had 100% opportunity to harvest an animal on all of our hunts. Since 2008 we have had the following success: Rifle Antelope – 100% Archery Elk – 67% Early Rifle Elk – 100% Late Rife Elk – 54% Rifle Deer – 100% They also guide just about any type of hunter, from a novice to a true trophy hunter. They have been very successful at making first time hunters successful. And they have helped their clients take amazing animals. Give High Point Outfitters a call and check out their website.

good opportunity to learn about hunting in Africa!

LOL! sorry you didn't get one, but that was a pretty amusing tale!

Thanks for the report! Hope your buddy is feeling better. I loved the pics!

Maybe try cleaning with rubbing alcohol to remove any kind of film on your window.

What's your name, so I can check your order?

You can butcher and freeze it just like any other game animal. However, you should take extra care skinning it. Don't let your hands that have touched the hide, touch the meat. You don't want the musk smell to get on your meat. The musk gland will come off safely with the skin, just use care to not cut it open or touch it. Wear gloves while skinning, then change them out and use a different knife when cutting up the meat. You can grill the tenderloins and backstrap and do the rest as sausage, or save some roasts if you like to cook roasts.

Did you clean the surface first? are you putting it on glass or paint? maybe it was a temperature problem? Although I can't imagine it was very cold in Tucson recently.

Never heard of a sticker that wouldn't stick.....mail it back to me and I can check it out. There is no old batch and they don't lose their stickiness....it almost sounds like you are trying to put it on backwards? PM me for an address and mail it back so I can check it out.

Congratulations!

Outstanding!! Way to go!

that's interesting DCS!

I got a new toy for Christmas....a quadcopter for aerial filming....so I have been taking it out and trying to learn to fly and film. here is my first video of Arizona landscapes. Filmed some of it around Scott's house the morning after we got his big buck. He lives in gorgeous country! Watch it in HD if you can! Enjoy!

That's awesome!!

You are right, it's a glitch in the way the single sign-on app is working to draw the info from the forum to the nonforum side of the site. Hopefully I will get it fixed soon. I actually didn't think anyone would notice! Glad you did!

They just look like cattle trails to me. Maybe there used to be a water source near there but it dried up after decades of drought....

Fun stuff Josh! What a great day out! Thanks for the pics! Is that buck completely missing a brow tine on the left side and just grew that funky fork?

Lovely!! When I watched the moonrise yesterday I was thinking of you and your photo shoot!

Excellent!!

Oh man, I am so sorry.....I hope they get the scumbags....and you get your gear back

Great work Julius!! That 120 buck is AMAZING! Congrats to your hunters!

Congrats to the hunters and guides! Looks like Bob and Julius are making hunter's dreams come true!
