You must be new to shed hunting? this Is one of the reasons the forest service Is closing down all the roads. at least that's what they say.I don't let boot prints or quad tracks get to me when I shed hunt a lot of times I find sheds right In the quad tracks with no law enforcement out there this will always happen.has for many years.there Is 5 law enforcement for all of the area around flag make that 4, the fifth doesn't start for 2 weeks so It Is really hard to catch these people even when I have called law enforcment they might be 80 miles away so It's hard to catch them..with the popularity of Internet and the greed to find sheds for the money just like hunting I think It will only get worse.I hear It gets so bad up In unit nine they fly planes to catch these people.

Don, I drew this tag with the Intent of giving It to my son, when I drew and went down to the game and fish and they said he was to old I was devastated.a week or so later I was about to call Hoal and donate the tag.Then the night before I was to call I got the reqs out and realized she made a mistake ,he had 3 more weeks before he was to old. the night before opening day we put a 84 inch buck to bed and I didn't see any body In the area.In the morning with 30 minutes before shooting light found me, a really good friend,and my son and within 500 yards of this buck before daylight then we saw headlights off In the distance that leads to a dead end road.when It got light enough my son was 5 seconds away from pulling the trigger, Boom the buck went down the other hunters got him what a beautiful buck It was. The next day we went to the area I had seen this buck only one time.all summer,we got rained on for 2 hours and were soaked to the bone. then out of nowhere he came running by us at 1000 yards without any of his does.he ran to a small hill in the trees where I had always seen the bucks In the area run too when they spooked, It took us 20 minutes to hike there and when we came around the cedar tree well the rest Is history.

You guys did awesome,very nice. Seldom Drawn

Sometimes late If you can find a hen that Is still looking It can be awesome you might call in 4 or 5 Gobblers all togehter, another thing I like to do In the late part of the season Is wait for them under there roost trees and let them fly up and just listen to some of the calls we have never heard them make, pretty awesome. then I wait for darkness and slip out. I have heard hens In the roost make a sinlge call and watch the gobblers go crazy even seen them jump on her and mate Well I think they were mating right In the tree.You can go back In the morning and have a great chance of calling them In.Good Luck.

Yes, I have a friend that was hit last night with a pending charge..What I read from Terry on Arizona hunter.com there are re-hitting 600 tags that weren't filled because of card issues no money in them, wrong expiration date or bank that just denied the charges. Seldom Drawn

I always put In with money orders, the results usally come out about 10 days after this.I don't think you will find out before the first week of April.But I hope I am wrong. Seldom Drawn

Don, I think I asked you this same question a couple years ago on a different forum ,when you brought this same topic up. I am not trying to stir the pot up because you do this for your Income, and a hard line of work It Is to make It In your business. But you guys killed 13 pigs do you only take out of state hunters?If you take In state they will be back In your spots the next year and the next and they will start bringing there friends and family, I have outfitter friends that will only guide out of state hunters for just this reason.do you think killing as many pigs as you guys do year In and year out has an effect on the herds, I have friends you have help that could never kill a pig without your help now that Is the only unit they hunt.
