Nice buck! 17 b has a lot of big bucks just hard to catch them in public land.

If you treat someone with respect, they should treat you with respect and vis versa. I always act respectful towards law enforcement. Even if I think they are in the wrong. Usually they relax and appreciate you letting them do their job and that in turn helps you out. Remember it's your word against theirs and they are the ones filling out the report. The judge reads their report and if it states you were a dumba## the judge will most likely treat you like one as well. Knowing your rights and being a jerk because you got caught are two different things. If people understood that they might have a better opinion of LE.

Video cameras are becoming a good thing to have in the hunting gear bag.

Awesome buck!

License revocation A.R.S. 17-340 Waste of game meat.

It's illegal to chop off antlers and leave a rotting corpse. Regs are free at walmart.

so what do you want him to do just leave it all together? what do the regulations say?

It sounds like some hunters should not put in and just go buy a rack at the g&f auction instead. After all that's all that seems to matter is horns. I think if you can't harvest the meat then the horns belong to the rats and critters that enjoyed the rotting corpse. Go home, practice your shooting or upgrade your gear or whatever it takes to get it done right next time. Not directed at anyone, but society in general.

Is that all a tag is good for? Antlers? I always thought g&f issued tags for the meat. In fact it is a crime to waste meat and harvest just antlers.

I understand going to the city and having to worry about your safety but the woods? The woods are my church.

I'm sure that only live catch traps can be used on public land. Snares and jaw/leg hold traps are only allowed on private land.

Wow!! Way to go!!

Construction is staring to boom again in the prescott area. The last boom displaced a lot of Lopes in the area. Get them while they are still here. Its not ever gonna be like it use to be.

Nice bull!

A good friend of mine was hunting in his tree stand behind a tank in 6a(bull tag) when a group of drunks pulled up and started unloading AK's and other high powered rifles into the dam he was behind.He had to bail out of his stand and call LE. LE showed up and then told my friend that the men were to drunk to drive and they had children so they could not tell them to leave. After they left the drunk idiots harassed my friends camp firing off rounds around it at night. He packed camp and left. Returned mid week and the men returned Friday and harassed him again.they claimed to be hunters but they didn't get drawn so they didn't care.

Beautiful animal! I guess the plus side of the rut not being in full swing is that the bulls are not busted up yet.

I love hunting with my brothers. We yell at each other and then we figure out a plan and hunt our butts off.

Nice bull! Congratulations!

I have the time just not the $. I have the problem of coming up with new ideas all the time but never enough money for all of them. I have my elk tag so I am greatful. Next year tuna boats and Utah otc elk are gonna be my goals.

I am proud to live in Arizona. And if they try to take away my hunting grounds I will become a modern day Robin Hood. Anybody have a good recipe for wolf? Jk..

Am I the only one who wonders why there are no bighorn sheep in 8/6B sycamore canyon and redrock wilderness? It would be a tough hunt but it screams sheep country!

I hope conditions are good next year! I picked the wrong year to procrastinate going on a tuna trip!

I guess there are more people that run hounds in Northern Arizona than down south, I don't spend time down south so I could be wrong. I can't go anywhere up here without seeing a truck with kennels. Even if I'm just going to Walmart. From what I hear the sheep in 6a are doing very well compared what seams like a near kill off from predation in the southern units. And the herd in 10/9 is on the small side, but they are not being killed off maby the lions having more food choices up north helps the bighorn survival rates up north. I guess they don't run domestic sheep in 10 anymore or the bighorn don't migrate south enough to come in contact with them.

Brings back memories of when my dad took me fishing!

I have viewed this site a few times over the years and I figured its time to join the " gang". I'm a bad speller, an avid hunter and I live for teaching my son the values and ethics that are being lost in today's society. Looking forward to the adventure of CWT.
