Nice write up, great pigs.

Successful night time lion callers have been using a terrier to alert them when a lion comes within sniffing distance. I would love to take my Heeler calling but he tends to attack me whenever I use a call.

Lemme know if you ever need a major mowing...

Just got this pic of Joe and his pig. He went out solo today to cull the herd a little more. Small world, Joe and my uncle worked together for Mesa PD in the 90's.

Pretty sure there's a ride coming up weekend after next to support the AES Hunts 4 Heroes. Get ahold of Tom for details. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/user/70-lv2hnt/

That would make a great movie. I was living in the region when a cowhand found the last fugitive. What this link doesn't mention is how the old Cowboy had to sue the govt for the reward money.http://www.denverpost.com/2007/06/12/bones-in-utah-canyon-idd-as-fugitive-in-1998-shooting-spree/

Thanks guys. I urge everyone to try and help out on these hunts. By nature these hunts are done with little notice due to the fact tags are often donated at the last moment. If you love to hunt, cook or just gather firewood, your help is welcomed by some vets who really earned it.

Weren't you in one of the first talking movie filmed in Arizona, too, Tim? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Sorry, friend. I'll go to time out now! I only look old. Back in the day, movies weren't starring Hollyweird lefties and commies.

I'll see your Death Wish and raise you 'Unbranded.'

They didn't mind closing down some of the 303 to film Transformer 4

Gauntlet?

Surprised to not see more John Wayne/John Ford films mentioned like 'She wore a Yellow Ribbon', filmed in Monument Valley. How to forget Rambo III? Specially when my saddle club at Luke AFB was hired on as extras portraying Mujahideen.

That's my buddy Carlton I mentored elk hunting. Glad to see him close the deal on his first big game animal.

Dirty Dingus Magee. A terrible Western. Only fun part was seeing a jet contrail in a 19th century sky.

Night of the Lepus was filmed at Colossal Cave. I worked there in the 70's. Asked the manager about the ball bearings I was finding all over the cave and he said those were used to make the Lepus leap.

Mike's Birthday today, he's like 30 or something. Don't get too crazy dude.

Restocked with an invasive species?

Cool find. We came across a dead bear a couple miles NW of Circlestone three years ago. Not sure I could find Circlestone again with out electronics, that's about as remote as you can get in that unit.

You know they're young when their head is still in velvet.

Why limit ourselves to self deprecation? A great thread for outing other baby killers too. Had to do several retakes of this pic, Duane's pinky's were covering this fawns rack... Bwahaha.

2014 buck... What can I say, I was running low on beer and pizza.

Documenting my dinkey would take up too much band width.

Alfalfa, crestedwheat, brohms...All permanent pasture. I was buying seed from this CWT member who worked at Fertizona. He's moved back to Sonoita http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/user/2208-uofahughes2/

Plant alfalfa. There's alfalfa designed for your elevation and non irrigated. It's a 20 year plant and puts nitrogen into the soil while its roots bust it up. No tilling, no rows, no drilling. You can broadcast it by hand or with a grass seeder. Drag the land with a tine using your truck, broadcast it and then drag again with a non tine drag. Can plant grasses with it including rye if you want a winter forage. I grew the dryland alfalfa with a Eurasian grass at 7000' and the deer and elk came back for it year after year. Corn is tough to grow in the desert. Several years ago I planted an acre of sweet corn, fenced it and tried to shoot every critter that tresspassed. Tough to do when 10000 starlings descended on it and wiped it out. If I were to try again I would try and plant some maze.
