1. The provider type doesn't help with anything until they change the definition of what is required to get a crossbow permit. Read the rules, a failed muscle test is the minimum bar. This needs changed IMO. 2. Not being able to use a bipod or tripod? How is a person with an injury or disability supposed to hold a heavy crossbow accurately? Isn't that the point of the permit to allow them more options because of the injury? Seems counter intuitive. 3. The G & F is so clueless I don't even think they see the real problem here, which is a loose definition allowing abuse of the system. They are throwing random solutions that don't fix the problem. Here is the form: https://azgfd-portal-wordpress-pantheon.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/archive/Form-2738-A-Crossbow-Permit-Ap-010423.pdf Here is the items qualifying someone for approval: An amputation involving body extremities required for stable function to use conventional archery equipment; A spinal cord injury resulting in a disability to the lower extremities, leaving the applicant nonambulatory; A wheelchair restriction; A neuromuscular condition that prevents the applicant from drawing and holding a bow; A failed functional draw test that equals 30 pounds of resistance and involves holding it for four seconds. The functional draw test may not be used to determine eligibility for the permit when it is not associated with a disability. A failed manual muscle test involving the grading of shoulder and elbow flexion and extension or an impaired range-of-motion test involving the shoulder or elbow; or A combination of comparable physical disabilities resulting in the applicant’s inability to draw and hold a bow.

I thought it was weird for a 17 and 18 year old to be on Mt Ord camping alone. It's gotta be beef someone they know or they bumped into something bad. Seems like there is more to the story. Might be a weird thing like this one on Reddington Road last year. Also super freaky. Guy was helping someone in the middle of the night with a tire, they shot him and took his truck : https://copperarea.com/arrests-made-in-paul-clifford-homicide/

We have the 23 non burro youth either coues or mule deer. If anyone wants to compare notes after some scouting or hunting.

Thanks for the update. Hope we get some rain this weekend.

Screaming deal. If I didn't already have several I'd be all over this

Should have started a week ago. I cant tell you how many out of control campfires I saw last weekend.

I have Ionic lithiums in the bass boat. They have been awesome. Seems like a lot of guys are buying the brand Li Time for the cheaper end of lithiums. I would check those out.

pm'd. Trucks are fine. Not many areas that would require a side by side. Plenty of camping areas around.

I would take a hard look at a Toyota Highlander or Grand Highlander.

I'm glad. There is a lot of locked land that the public should have access to. Corner crossing should be legal nation wide.

If they back out let me know. I'm interested.

Do it. You can get some decent ones for 5-600.

I have probably 500 or so once fired

Because it's not fraud. If you read the game and fish definitions for a crossbow permit and even a champ permit, they are wide open. Anyone with a failed muscle test can get a crossbow permit. Anyone with arthritis can get a champ tag. It's their own fault, they need to tighten up the restrictions by definition not drop the whole program all together. It's not abusing the system when the requirements are very low.

120 have 26. He's got 180 people ahead of him. If he's a resident that changes things though. 16 residents with 26 and 27 residents higher than that. https://azgfd-portal-wordpress-pantheon.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/17132601/2024-Fall-Individual-Bonus-Point-Report.pdf

Been using Cy-kik off Amazon. Works well. Theres a lot of commercial looking brands just like it.
