Congratulations Jed and Jimi, Jeds been like the brother I never had and now I have a new sister too. Congratulaions again and all our love, Jeff, Wendy, Sandra and Sami Falls

Ive seen that thing before as well least i think it was that one.... no clue what it is. if memory serves me correct (which is highly unlikely at my advanced age) i think skeeter and i were around when they set that thing up. not sure tho.

On the way home from the inlaws in New Mexico yesterday, I was pulled over for speeding. The officer noticed my CWT.COM sticker and we struck up a conversation. I'm not sure how that encounter would have gone had I not had a sticker. But since I did have one know I wont be going to traffic school or court in NM any time soon. Merry Christmas to all.

bump.

Thats the thing about boys from Payson... kinda all like brothers. My best and closest friends are still my group of buddies from Payson. No matter where weve ended up. Id drop anything to help them out in a moments notice.

Well said Gino and a perfect way to put an end to the beating of this old dead horse. The number one tactic the antis use is to divide and conquer. Thats how we lost trapping.

They should go with a similar system to NM. If you dont respond to the mandatory survey you are not eligible for the next seasons draw. The problem still exists with people falsifying the information. I know guys in AZ and NM, mostly old-timers set in their ways, who believe that if they say they were successful on their survey that they will not be drawn the following year. And I stand by the fact that these days not much science is used in determining tag numbers and will cite the fact that there were 60 rifle antelope tags in unit 19b this year. Theyd already whacked 50 bucks during the rifle hunt last year and add another 40-50 this year and there wont be much for the 60 guys who pull that tag next year.

Old? Did you say your feeling old? That makes us old guys feel even older. Happy Birthday.

At this time fo year in Payson everyone has a quad in back of their truck as well. Even the police. I think its some sorta city ordinance or something. If you guys to run into skeeter out there in the hills make sure you stop and tell him hi, hes one of the best guys youll ever meet and its been my pleasure to be his friend for almost 30 years.

dang... still learning how to use this new fangled calendar thingy...

it easy to do... i used a larger tubing cutter (for cutting up to 1 1/2" copper) the legs are aluminum on mine and cut real easy and the tubing cutter will put a nice square clean factory type cut. i cant remember how much I cut off, but when cutting the last leg make sure u leave enough for the rubber feet.

the WM's in the area usuall have a good feel for the deer population in their area. They present this information to their superiors, who promptly file it in the circular file under their desk and make up whatever they want in order to pump as many tags out as they possibly can.

yep thats skeeter... look on the homepage of this website, thats skeeters pick-up.

how much further can we be pushed? when are we going to push back? we even stand by while the our "leader" has crosses covered at places where he speaks. disgusting.

Heres what will eventually happen in the KOFA's. USFWS along with some partner groups, probably The Center for Biological Diversity, Sierra Club and other very well funded "green" groups will force thru lawsuit AZG&F to replace the lion they removed from the area. Said lion will have special protection and federal and state dollars will be spent monitoring the lion and its safety and the safty of its offspring. They will even give the lion a special name, thru a contest by school children in the Yuma area. The dead lion will become a martyr thus opening the door for the end of lion hunting in the state. More federal and state dollars will be spent monitoring the safety of all lions in the state and they will be given special status ALMOST equal to what the wolves get. Not the same because no creature on the planet is more important than a wolf as we all know. Sheep populations will continue to plummet... most likley due to poaching because we all know that lions only eat rodents and the sickest and weakest animals they can find. Lions are after all the true conservationists. Sheep hunting will have to be curtailed until it can be determined what is causing the sheep to disappear. Then deer hunting, then the elk... all falling like dominoes. If we had more lions, and more wolves, maybe add some grizzlies and some more condors to clean everything up we wont need to hunt anymore. What a great plan! Well we might need to import some cheetahs to help with the exploding pronghorn population in the state. Quick raise tag fees while we can to pay for some cheetahs.

For some reason i cant explain Im thinking about applying for a Sandhill permit. Has anyone here ever hunted these birds? Can you offer any insight/information? Thanks.

this is all part of the "opportunity" over quality direction that gf is headed. more and more hunters, less and less game. Look at mulie hunting and antelope hunting as an example. Elk and coues are headed down the same road. All this added pressure has made us turn on each other as well, courtesy is gone. heck during my elk hunt this year it was a foot race to get to the elk first a few times. Compound this with an unusually late rut and you have a recipe for a bad hunt. Mine was a complete dissappointment. If there going to keep these hunts so early Im going back to late archery hunts instead. At least I dont have to wait so long in between tags and its just as easy NOT to kill an elk in Nov as it is in Sept. Congrats to all of those who killed this year, you sure earned it.

might sound crazy to most, but... I had the same issues with my bogen and just took a tubing cutter and shortened the legs myself. Had this 'pod for over 10 years and love it.

Im another who will be FOB-ing a nice bull sometime after Friday morning... with Gods will. Great buck it was a tough year for the archery goat hunters for sure so that buck makes it all the sweeter.
