Thanks guys. Now I have to decide if I am willing to put my family before hunting. Hmmmmmmmm.

insanity. wow

Sounds awesome, love that unit.

I looked at the bonus point reports on AZGFD.com. I looked at the "Bonus pass by hunt number" report. https://www.azgfd.com/hunting/draw/BonusPointProcess It was hunt #1014 last year. They gave out 450 tags. I see this year it got bumped up to 500. Thanks.

stupid question: but how do you know where the bonus pass is? I have 7 pts and trying to decide myself. Last time I hunted 12AW, it was the early and snow came early. It was awesome.

No sir, I was just suggesting that because more people are aware of this auction, there would probably be more FFL holders bidding... LOL... Another user asked what an FFL was and then deleted his comment, could be part of the confusion. Elkaholic, cool site thanks for sharing. I was the 'other user'. In my world, FFL is Fantasy Football League. I just figured it out and decided to take down my comment.

I saw nothing today, actually. I sat in front of a keyboard jamming out hundreds of emails and several conference calls. Then I came home to out-of-control kids who didn't want to take one bite of food. Then, the last part of my day was trying to get them ready for bed. Now, I this is the first few seconds of peace in the day. Nope- no help on the mysterious animal. haha.

you guys are all so bullish on this one, which is your prerogative. My thinking: I just don't think it stands out. EDIT: now I see the pic was uploaded. Fine buck. congrats.

That's what I tell my kids.

I smoked my elk roast in an offset smoker. Managed to a beef temp on a typical roast (forgot what it was, this was 3-4 years ago). I did wrap it in bacon to keep it moist. It was the best tasting piece of elk I have ever had. Had the texture of a filet mignon.

they call 3x before they give up on you.

...or CitiCard

screen shot please.

so good, haha.

what fun would that be?? haha

i hope so. in the mean time, why don't we mindlessly check this thread and our credit cards. who's checked their card the most??

My son is taking a ton of interest in geology (he's 6), and he has been wanting to get out and search for all the rocks where AZ is known to have them. I heard that there are more meteorites are found in AZ than any other state. Anyone have pics of cool stones they've found in their travels?

No can do. Risk of choking would be too high.

haha. They are stuffed into my boys collection. I'll pull them out and snap one.

i bet a deal gets done to move them to DT Phoenix in the next 10 years. Should have been there to start with.

because they don't sell out- ever. More operational costs when there are more seats. Also, a stadium feels alot better when its full.

incredible stuff. They must have their chiro on speed dial.

Here is a pic on the way.

well, sometimes things don't turn out how you'd expect it. I went towards Perlite Rd, only to find out that this was on the only road closed with the work they are doing on the 60. Instead of trying Picket Post Rd, I tried to work the back side access by driving down some rough roads. We then hiked in two miles to get to the spot, only to find our that my GPS coordinates weren't the same projections (pushing me to the wrong spot). The good news: - we found some nice pieces of common opal, and the kids loved picking up other pieces, including schist. - my 4x4 works just fine - 4 miles of hiking with my 4 and 7 year old boys. Waay better than playing on the Ipad. Thanks guys for the ideas. The boys are begging to do it again.

Thank you all for your advice. I am talking my two boys out for some rock hunting tomorrow. They are super stoked. I'll post pictures.
