  1. Anyone else getting screwed by the San Carlos? 
    So years ago we used to hunt bears without guides on the San Carlos (I’m sure many of you remember these days). But then the tribe changed the rules that you had to have a tribal guide and they raised the tag’s to about $1500.  Obviously a lot of people quit hunting it because of the new rules. Well if you been to any of the rivers over the last couple of years the bear population is insane! So this year they opened it back up to hunting without a tribal guide and they lowered the bear tags down to $600. It was a first come first serve basis. My buddy and I got our apps in and last week they called us saying we were successful in getting tags, they let us pick our unit, all good 👍🏼. A week goes by and we noticed they never charged our cards. So we made a follow up call. Then we were informed that the Director changed his mind and “first come first serve” now means that people hiring tribal guides get the tags first, so they took our tags back and said never mind. It doesn’t say that anywhere on their website. So obviously my buddy and I were pretty heated. We were excited about our tags. So we called them on their bs, well that upset the “Director” enough that he told us he would put us on the “blacklist” so we could never hunt again on the San Carlos. The San Carlos is known for this bs, they wouldn’t let Turkey hunters hunt during Covid and wouldn’t refund their money. The Director is a crook! They can go ahead and put me on the “blacklist” cause I’ll never give them another dime!

  2. What’s everyone using to sharpen your Hunting/EDC knives? I love a razor sharp knife (not a replaceable blade knife). I had a guy in the Valley I’d pay to sharpen my knives after every hunting season but he’s moved on and lost contact with him. Curious to what other people are using and doing. Any suggestions would be great!
