My daughter hit and killed a young cow elk several years ago near Clints Well. I called G and F to ask if I could salvage the meat. They told me to call the local sheriff and he would meet me and issue a salvage tag and yes I could salvage the meat. I followed all the rules, never got a return call, and the elk spoiled. Total waste. Why make rules if law enforcement doesn't do their part.

What are you guys' thoughts on using a .243 for cow elk. We have 2 youth tags this year. One of my grandsons has shot a .243 up till now .

you can still use cameras on trails, fence crossings, naturally occurring water - if I'm reading it correctly

Nobody expected much from ASU going into the season. Then the great start. Everybody expected great things from U of A going in. Both crashed and burned, plain and simple

complete collapse- losing in the first round to Buffalo

ooh sounds like some people are a little sensitive these days

pac 12 looking not so much good

I hunted unit 8 last year and scouted it hard as well. My advice- skip Garland Prairie, They just aren't there , at least not last year. Hunt the pines around the open flats, or go down by Drake and Putney Flat. I killed in the pines, but it can be a real challenge finding them.

another thing that will be interesting- FBI recordings and what will happen as a result. If they exist

oh well..........................................., at least ASU got the fans back in the seats. next season will be interesting..

The creedmoor it will be- if he shoots it well. My other grandson is a lot bigger and will use a .270 w. 130 gr. I just wanted opinions on .243 because he shoots it without any problem. I would rather have a good shot with a .243 than a poor shot with anything bigger.

Creedmoor kicks a little harder than .243 with 100 gr. .243 vs 140gr creed, but I think at this point it's mostly a mental thing .... If they think it will kick more, they think about it and it affects their shooting. We'll work on it this summer and decide which one he shoots better. Thanks to all who responded. Kind of reinforced my thinking that a .243 would be adequate, if not ideal. Either way, it's exciting to be taking the kids out. No tags for me, but I'm just as excited to take them. First elk tags after trying for 3 years.

Thanks for the generous offer, but I have a 6.5 creedmoor that he can use if he proves he can shoot it well.

SERIOUSLY?

I'm disappointed in how the Devils finished, but optimistic for the future. I think Hurley has them headed in the right direction. Some good recruits coming in.

Diesel Derminator- honest and does it right. Won't sell you things you don't need

Once the subject becomes hunting instead of ASU vs U of A, everyone settles down and becomes civil again

I am an ASU graduate and fan, and I like your post! Really tired of the junior high rhetoric on the " How bout those Devils" thread. Thank you for some adult comments.

Nice write up Don!

The actual draw is over in minutes

$100 charge- 2 youth tags!!!

Sad but true-the majority will be crushed with disappointment in the morning.

I don't know but that's a really cool looking falcon. I'd like to see some footage from that camera!

Personally I would rather hunt late archery than what I've done the last 6 years- which is nothing.

100 grand does get you a great player- for what it's worth. I love how U of A corruption being exposed brings out ASU bashing. ??? Not sure I get the connection.
