Northern Pintail

You don’t have to shoot one on the first or second day. I know most people feel like scouting is part of the hunt but enjoy it, you might never have a tag again, why only hunt for 3 hours. Look over every part of the unit, including the flats. Some of the best sheep hunters say new rams show up out of no where around December 20. Can’t see them if you kill day 1

Fire fighters cant be on for more than 14 days at a time. But the longer it lasts the more everyone gets paid

My bet it’s bigger than any of us expect. Matt was talking a couple weeks ago and poof, gone. Cant wait for final results

I thought 12a was managed closer to 35 to 100. The reason you were given seems backwards. If you wanted to have a higher buck ratio wouldn’t you KILL more does and less bucks? They did reduce the late hunt by 25 tags.

Has Blake not gotten a Azgfd report from the county attorney? Cause that would tell you every thing they have.

I’ve got no idea if Azgfd is out to get him like you say but I believe the county attorney is a buffer in that. I find it hard to believe a county attorney would possibly put their job on the line by offering a deal with no evidence. The attorney has to believe they have enough evidence to take it to court. They may not believe they have enough to win but have enough to take in front of a judge. If he hasn’t seen the evidence maybe your brothers attorney is not doing his job properly

Late dec to early jan

Thanks for the update. The plea offer is for what animal(s)? I find it hard to believe they offered a plea with out any evidence. So I’m assuming he’s not taking the plea based on what you have said?

So where is this at then Matt? Is there a court date? Plea deal since you brought that up? Also thought we would find out on March 13 as you proclaimed. Heard rumors of something happening in heber last week but haven’t gotten details. Any word on that?

Whipping if I understand what you mean by that would be reckless driving, which is illegal

This has been talked about a lot on fb. What the website says for different people is all over the place. There are guys that have something on all 5 species that makes them believe they got a tag. They didn’t draw all 5. If you are believing what it says before results are officially released you will be disappointed. Plus they couldn’t run the draw before April 7th because that’s when reporting from prior years was due!!!

It must be awhile since you guys have been drawn. Or need to look at your tags better next time. The top tag is a carcass/transportation tag. You need two tags incase the head goes to the taxidermist and the meat goes to a second location. Either home or the processor

You get a tag for the antlers (head) and one for the meat. Same as az. I hope you were being sarcastic

My bet is it will be limited access

It sucks to lose your favorite place but there is no doubt that it is a much better deer unit now

I agree with you that it needs to be accurate data. But in this situation they are more conservative which won’t hurt anything compared to an increase in tags I bet they limit tags for a couple years and then they will have better stats and may change it

Pretty sure there are more studies that show it doesn’t work more than it works. People accidentally kill a 2 pt, don’t report it and go kill a legal animal. Creates a higher number of animals killed

Gutless

Yeah I’m with you. Just waaay to much going on to not have done something. Not sure how insurance fraud fits into the animal we all think he is in trouble for though

Thanks for reminding us that we got turned down!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you’re not in max it’s a crap shoot either way so just pick two hunts and hope you get lucky

Bighorn where? Az resident in az it’s 300

Interesting.... it’s a rumor but I know him and know the number of points is correct and his unit selection is correct. Applied by himself. I’m starting to think something went wrong with the draw

Heard a resident with 18 points didn’t draw early archery unit 1 which has taken 12 points the last couple years. I think with all this moisture people want a tag
