    Stolen Trailor

    can you zoom in on the PT cruiser plates? We got robbed back in 2012 and the neighbor across the street and couple doors down got the perps on his security camera. Long story short, due to film footage the cops caught the two thieves and I know one of them was sentenced to 2.5 years in jail. 23 year old tweeker and he pawned all my wives jewelry and shop melted it down. good Luck finding who did it and getting your property back in good condition.

    AZ G&F and trails cameras

    I don't think theft has anything to do with the G&F decision to restrict cameras around man made water. They are concerned with the guys that run 100's of cameras in a single unit and have every buck/bull named. Something about fair chase. I also disagree with who many think are stealing cameras. IMO 90+% of theft is hunters and the rest are opportunist who stumble across them. I was convinced of this once I stopped placing cameras around water and put them 100's of yards away from water. Once I did this, I lost cameras during shed hunting season.

    Could moose live in AZ?

    Have you seen some of those shiras moose in wyoming and utah? It looks like they are in high desert desert areas with open sage country. If we put them in unit 1, 27 & 7E they would probably adapt. G&F will not introduce non-native species but an interesting topic non the less.

    No cams on water by G&F.....coming soon.

    I guarantee a lawyer helped write the rule and it was written like this on purpose. To you and I it may be confusing but to an attorney it is called wordsmithing. Vagueness leaves open the door of interpretation.

    I think unit 9 elk has a lot of abusers as well.

    No cams on water by G&F.....coming soon.

    Virtually every lake in AZ is man made so I'm guessing this will include the lake shores? Seems to be some grey areas with regard to to interpretation of the new rules. Don't care for the camera abusers but more govt regulation I dislike even more. Tired of always being told what I can or can't do by the govt. I would have to say the people who run dozens and even hundreds of cameras have nobody else to blame but themselves for this rule change.

    Would you rather

    This is easy for me. Have no interest in sheep and stopped applying 12 years ago. Mule deer all the way for me.

    Sending Binos to Swarovski?

    I once dropped my 15's and bent the lens housing. This happened on a Sunday evening. I shipped them Monday with fed-ex using overnight express. I had them repaired and returned to me on Thursday. I did call in advance on Monday morning explaining the situation and my opener was Friday. They said they would do their best but made no promises. I do not recall if I paid for shipping back or not. Their customer service is 2nd to none. I have since sent in my 15's and 10's two times for general cleaning and maintenance and they have had them back to me in less than 3 weeks. I took care of this in June both times.

    Interesting BAN!!!

    Freedom of religion not freedom from religion. I am 54 years old and so ashamed of my generation. We have just sat apathetically by and let all this crap happen. Many years from now, when historians write about our generation I'm afraid they will not be kind.

    Maybe it is time

    If you are not a member or even if you are maybe it is time to show our support and solidarity for the 2nd amendment and join the NRA. If there was ever a time to join, now is it.

    Police: Son knocked dad out in fight over dinnertime texting

    One of the saddest things I ever saw was an adult son get in a fight with his father. Believe me, you don't want to see it.

    I would like to say I'm surprised but I'm not.

    Maybe it is time

    I think most people who are gun owners but not an NRA member are just cheap. They will use some lame excuse but really what it comes down to is that they would rather itch and moan but not put money where mouth is. Some people talk about it but very few be about it. At least this is my experience about most things in life.

    How bout them Devils!

    Not just at UofA and basketball, but what does it say about the character of the parents and raising their "child" when they knowingly violate rules and break the law by taking money? At least I understand the motivation of the coaches, who I have always kind of looked at like a used car salesman. That is why none of this shocks me. As a parent, I would be ashamed of myself if I did this and profited off of my son or daughter. I don't care how broke or poor I am. If people are so upset and act like they did not know this was going on in all college sports maybe it is time for a change? Maybe each pro sport needs to come up with their "minor" league system and pay the kids? Kids have the choice of going into minor league system or go to college but they can't be drafted pro until their class graduates ( 4 years). The pro sports teams need to know they are untouchable for 4 years. Even though I am commenting on this subject it is kind of a mute point for me. I have been turned off by pro sports for years and college is getting to be the same. Other than maybe a college baseball game I have no desire ever go see a football or basketball game. Hockey doesn't even count in AZ. It is too cold to go outside so I have nothing better to do but comment. Good luck to all those that applied for elk & antelope.

    Is there a single person alive that doesn't think ALL major (successful) programs cheat? I thought it was common knowledge just like the casting couch in Hollywood. I don't get why everyone is in shock or surprised?

    1 Day!!!

    So much for having an early deadline date for paper apps. I thought the process was going to be sped up now? I still say we will begin to see CC hits on March 2nd. Questions: Have you really noticed any processing speed-up since the majority of people apply on-line and they split the draw and moved elk/antelope earlier in the year? I haven't. Not that it really matters, can't hunt until the fall anyways. It just kind of reminds me how we say we are going computer based and going paperless but we use more paper now that we did 20 years ago. When applying online why can't we just enter our sportsman ID or Soc. Security number and all our information pop up? If we need to edit it, let us. Then let us just just select all the species we want to apply for and the units or BP. The way it is now we always have to start back at beginning for everything. As a former computer programmer this just seems so redundant especially since they have all our information stored electronically in their database.

    Is the Game and Fish meeting in secret?

    Sorry, I just checked my deleted folder and the email I received was regarding the March 5th meeting. I did not receive anything about this past weekends meeting in Yuma.

    Shed spot around Pine March 10 too early?

    I'm not a shed hunter but I can tell you my cameras used to always get stolen between 3rd week of march and end of April. I have always assumed it was the shed hunters. March 10th might be a little too early from my what I know about shed hunters in my area but bigger bulls might drop earlier than the majority.

    Old Outdoorlife magazines

    No room for them but I wish I had a few weekends just to sit and read them. I have also cancelled all my subscriptions. The new magazines look great and are quality made but the stories all seem to be the same. Too many ads. good luck with the sale.

    How bout them Devils!

    Bob I hope you never want to become a Vegas odds maker. Go back 23 pages of posts and you have been wrong every time. UofA has owned ASU since early 80's. The "dirty T" has had to worry about losing quality players to other schools and the draft for years. It is nothing new and yet the good ones still keep coming. Why is that? Because they win, they are consistently in the NCAA tournament and players go pro. I'm an ASU grad but at least I know when to keep quiet. When the Sun Devils can put 4 quality seasons back to back then we can begin to talk.
