    Still too early for southern coues but is anyone seeing any rut action in the central units after that last storm and cool temps?  I’d imagine the mule deer in the southern units are starting a little?

    In 34a now.  Glassed up over 20 doe across several groups not a single buck with them (WT).

    Taking my daughter down to 34a next week for rifle Coues.  Ran those hills quite a bit for archery but it’s hard to get those bucks on those hills with a bow. Looking forward to improving our odds with the 7 mag lol

     

    hows the pre rut looking in the southern units?  If I had to guess I’d say big boys are still hiding given the heat and dryness but my guesses usually suck…

    I was hunting in the flag area.  Hunted for 9 days. Overall the rut was slow.  Always some bugling where we were at and I was all over the unit, but it was barely enough to give you a shot to give chase.  I would not call it a rut crazed buglefest.  
    Bugles seemed to end right after first light or maybe 45 mins later    As to water, seemed like bulls were coming in after dark more and more as the hunt went on which is to be expected as the moon went from dark/new to more bright   

    On aggregate bulls were call shy.  Herd bulls were running away from calls protecting their cows.    Satellite bulls were callable here and there but it was inconsistent.   
     

    my theory on all this is the conditions we’re very very good with respect to water and feed.  So much so I think the elk were very spread out and with this there was less competition for the cows.   I never saw a bull with a huge harem.  Maybe one bull had 10-12 cows.  Most had 3-5 it seemed like.    
     

    hopefully the rut kicks in harder this week for the guys still getting after it.  
     

    as to us, we had chances each day and passed a bunch of bulls.  Wednesday and Thursday sucked though due to high winds.  Seemed to shut it all down and things got back to normal after that small front passed through.    I wasn’t going to take a small bull and was perfectly fine with my 5 star tag soup dish.   Mmmm….good.

    I have a bunch of camo that is good as new for the most part and would be a great kit for an up and coming youth hunter (or smaller adult). 
     

    Given it’s all the same size I’d prefer to sell it as a lot.   All is located in Queen Creek and I could meet halfway within reason.  
     

    item 1:  slightly insulated jacket with hood.  No rips or stains

    item 2:  insulated coveralls with a soft and warm flannel like material   Cabelas brand  

    item 3:  walls insulated coveralls with a hood   Waterproof, wind proof, and breathable    Red Head Mountain Stalker    
    item 4:   Insulated bibs   The camo pattern is slightly faded on these but all else is good   Walls is the brand

    item 5:  uninsulated Walls bibs  

    item 6:  two pairs of real tree rustic ride pants uninsulated   
     

    item 7:  three long sleeve camo shirts   Walls brand   
     

    all items are size medium adult and if applicable regular length  

    looking for $350 for everything   
     

    thx
