Str8Shot

I know there have been several guys wanting to take aged venison and beef cuts off others hands to use for their Dogs ... I am clearing out a good amount of venison from my dad and my brother is looking at freeing space in his freezer as well ( he has some older grass fed beef from a slaughter as well as venison ) not sure how much in total , but I would guess between 60 - 70 lbs from both ... if you are one of these guys and want to pick up for your pups .. let me know in message and we can work out details ... located in east valley ..

Sold !

Got my son this bipod for his gun and only used it at the range for a few shots, did not fit his sitting height well and went to smaller one for hunt ... Like new, in box First $40.00 takes it , can meet in east valley ... Will take all requests but first available to meet and pick up will get it ...

You can only take 1 Javelina per hunt # .... So if wanting to take a second using leftover tags they would have to be a different hunt # ... Just in case anyone was confused

I would agree with with those that say stick to the roads and glass while also paying attention to camps and areas of higher pressure.... With that being said I personally believe ( epsecially with the cost of gas depending on the the drive) that scouting prior to the early hunts and then after the actual rifle hunts has been better for those I have helped comethe late Archery season .... I am just starting to take up archery, have not shot since a teen, but I am a deer finding machine for family and friends ... During the rifle hunts, especially the later hunts the pressure has a lot of bucks pushed deep and much harder to get a real idea where you may see them come Mid to late Dec. It is amazing how much can change in their paterns after a week or two of not being chased .. often finding them in areas seen prior to the firts hunts . I feel it is best to let those with tags hunt without the additional traffic and guessing if the guy in the spot they are looking to hunt actually has a tag or is scouting.... We have always doen better relocating Bucks in the late archery hunts by focusing om scouting the weekends for the month prior to oepning of general rifle and usually a weekday or two prior to the start of the late Archery!

the all knowing Troll Using words like typical and average are funny .... Is it possible even if not very probable , the answer would be YES.... Do not let the All knowing Troll keep you from sharing as there are many of us that do enjoy seeing such success .... Trust me when I say I know the one big Tom that runs the small desert washes and feeds of the neighborhood pets out by us is easily 25 lbs and I would not go as far as using the words in the wild where this guy and another handful hang out and have been seen.... it was not a fleeting look but a couple minutes of scrapping with a pit that is on the big side at 38 lbs... olmos thanks for the link ... I am betting he will call that 32 lb cat from Az on the first page BS too ... because I doubt he will eat crow

I know one tom inside of city limits in the east valley that is easily over 25 lbs. maybe even pushing the 30 range ... been eating healthy on small pets in the neighborhoods and watched him go toe to toe with a 38 lb pit bull a few weeks back .... never seen the Op's pic but does seem a bit unfair to be making comments just because you think it not possible .. The average top weight for a chihuahua is 8 lbs but I have a friends who's little rat is 22 lbs.

For those wanting decent glass but not able to buy those Vortex Vipers, Zeiss or Zen Rays... Camofire has the Nikon Prostaff 7 10x42 for $155 versus the normal $350 for a little over 2 more hours... Decent glass that can easily be made as a backup down the road when you can afford the ones you really want...

I have to agree with those in the saying 105 - 109 range ...... I do not think he would pass the 110 mark but there is no way he is under 100 ....

horns look pixelated af. you do realize that all digital imaging devices from CCD to CMOS use digital pixels and interpolation to create a digital image .... Lighting and exposure settings combined with the type and quality of the camera can create pixels and artifacts most would think point to an altered picture ... for those claiming lack of shadows you really should look closer as there are many varied shadows throughout that seem proper and within similar gradients that would reflect a natural light source .... Could it be faked of course, but from what I see IMO it is not ... Granted there seem to be more CSI worthy experts on this site than myself ...

Let see... the drag mark in dirt from nose the fresh dusted dirt from where the guy stood while turning kicking up the ear and leaving imprint in boot track... the shadow of two tines casting up the boot .... all indicators that it is not photo shopped! Still always going to have those jealous haters putting doubt on everything they see .. Could it be fake , certainly ... But digital cameras have a way of making things look out of whack sometimes... I am sure all of us are Envious at the thought of a buck like this being taken , but that does not mean time should not be given for a story to come out , because if it was taken this year a story will most certainly come out ...

Man... I was bummed to find it was not for the 5c like mine.... Good deal for someone with the 5 or 5s

Yeah SPOT measuring is always best ... but I am pretty certain that measurements would not be an issue ... the only issue may be the tailgate upper trim as there was a change made around 2009 ... but even with that you should be able to get it to work and seal tight ....

Pretty Sure 99 - 2012 short bed dimensions on the f250s are the same when it comes to needing to mount a shell ....

Until UofA actually passes ASU in the polls or wins On Nov 28th .... I think it is best that Wildcat fans take a back seat and be quiet .... It will make your gloating oh so much sweeter if they pull off that upset !!!

Other than screen size of an Ipad.... I find that the Garmins with The OnXmaps HUNT chip and then downloading and using Birdseye view through basecamp and layerd works well for getting the satatlite image of what you are hunting .... can easily be truned on and off as well on your garmin... this combo gives you the most extensive layers and details including BLM ( private land ownership) , Hunting units ... and satalite view....you will not get entire state for Birdseye on your GPS but should be able to get most of your unit ....

Trphy at this point mainly weight training ... with some core traning and cardio as a closer ....At some point plan of looking into and finding a good crossfit program that is close .... I know I have a long way to go to reach my 185 goal .... but being 310 was no longer an option ....

Firstcousewas110..... I have not lost over 70 lbs since January doing cardio alone .... Strength training 4 days a week each followed with cardio session .... I am not back at the level when I played middle linebacker, wrestled or pole vaulted , But yes I lift

Bruiser of a Buck .. nicely done!

Not going to turn this into a pissing match... if your argument is that a calorie is a calorie ( negating the reality of empty calories ) then you are correct in stating that in weight loss the calories are equal... the nurtitional benifits are not equal... The rate of cumsuption by the body is not equal.... The metabolic rate as which one is converted to energy is not equal.... as far a timing it comes down to what the body needs to maximize the output while maintaining and rebuilding any muscle during any activity level... Body uses energy constantly simple carbs covert quick and are used first .. complex carbs take longer but can give adequite energy quickly enough.... Body runs out of quick energy for the activity it goes to stored energy A.K.A Fat.... body uses stored energy up and to the point that it is repelnished with more easily converted energy ( such as that plate of Pasta.... If it runs out of Stored energy and is not being replenished it breaks down muscle .... That is why individuals with a large fat reserve can eat at a deficit and both lose Fat Weight while gaining muscle through strrength training... especially when feeding enough protein to feed the repairing of muscle... Now that does not ever mean that a person is making the same kinds of gains as in eating in surplus with more strength training , but it does allow for both fat loss and small gains while losing... heck even the digestion of the food itself has different caloric burn rates a process that is always happening as he body converts to energy and absorbs neccessary nutrients .... You ar enot going to go do months of strength training without feeding your body protein nor should you starve it of the quick energy to help fuel the process but I do not think most are using Twinkies to fuel their workout .. If you do that is awesome

You are wrong on saying that simple cabs from Twinkies and Complex carbs from fruits and vegetables are the same ... You are right on the concept of macros and calories in versus out is the only real key to weight loss, but to deny the way ones body breaks downs and utilizes and stores energy in the form of fat and from what sources those calories are derived and have much to do with the type of activity levels and time of activity levels versus caloric intake.... Balanced macros from all sources is of course ideal, but to neglect the process of metabolism and how ones organs break down varied caloric intake is just as much quackery IMO... All I will say is balance balance balance and balanced macros can be achieved with a low carb ( mostly made of complex carbs ) with higher amounts of fat and lean proteins ...

Did not reach my weight goal prior to the hunt .... and been plateaued in the 240 -245 range the last month .... The hunt came and just being down that 70 lbs made hitting the hills 3 - 5 miles a day so much easier ... The steep stuff was no problem and even had my 16 year old son telling me I worked up the steep stuff too fast asking me to slow down, of course this would not have been the case a year ago... The hunt did drop me below that plateau as I lost 7 lbs over a week of hard hunting ... Passed up many small bucks in the process and just could not get on any of the quality bucks we had seen weeks prior ...My son did well not complaining once and often optimistic about pushing further , No Buck on his first hunt but he was happy with it knowing he let that fork and spikes hopefully make it to another season... By next season the plan is to push further and pack heavier including bags and Bivys!

Nothing wrong with that buck at all .... Hoping the monster 5x4 with the big drop on his right side is eluding all you guys

And so you have it from the regs.. here you go A.R.S. 17-305 Possession of other weapons while hunting; violation; classification A. The possession of legal weapons, devices, ammunition or magazines, which are not authorized to take wildlife, is not prohibited while hunting if the weapon or device is not used to take wildlife. B. Taking wildlife by using a weapon, device, ammunition, or magazine that is not authorized to take wildlife is a class 1 misdemeanor. and by the way a center fire pistol is legal for taking all game except Buffalo (Raymond herd) and of course can not be used to take drawn for big game game during a muzzle loader or archery hunts ( you can still take other non tag species if in season during your archery hunt such as rabbit and coyote)
