I will trade you 11 450.00 Christmas trees for it! Lol.. Just kidding.. But seriously, I would.

Yes, the trees are all new and in the box. I can't find this exact tree anywhere. I don't know what the "Cassidy" denotes but this is the Cassidy Fraser Fir. It is not a big fat bushy tree but more on the thinner branched side. I'll set one up soon.

I have more than a few, brand new, in the box Christmas trees from last year. They were stored inside my house, not in the garage or outside. Looking to get 200 each. If interested in more than a few, we can definitely make a deal. 9ft Westwood Fir LED Pre-Lit tree Warm white 800 micro fairy lights 58" base I also have a few 7.5 Cassidy Fraser Fir LED Pre-lit Trees with 900, color changing lights. I would take 150.00 for those. My work schedule is nuts so Friday thru Saturdays may be the only times to meet. Delivery possible as well. PM me for now. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Home-Accents-Holiday-9-ft-Westwood-Fir-Christmas-Tree-21PG90244/316232200

Tom Wagner (Lv2hnt) is a good choice

I have been checked twice while fishing and three times while hunting..

Yep on both. Ugly and approved for residential use. One huge benefit is it can be put on with water gushing.

Just the following morning. I was going to go again tonight but Mama nature decided to open the faucet again.. So pretty and green out there though..

I was wondering if anyone wanted a phone call if I come across these kitties again? Mama appears to be huge and I doubt the juvies have spots but I was 1.4 mi away so couldn't say for sure. Most know I'm not a huge dog fan by any means but if someone wants a call on an actual sighting to drop some dogs on, I'm glad to put you on to them. They were just east of Safford and by kitty country standards, are pretty easy to get to where they were. They made a kill on Saturday, August 20th about 4PM but it was just a fawn and doubt there is anything left. PM me if interested

After a respected member here reached out to me, I did a little checking on the meaning or definition of "poaching" by the AZGFD, and now it's clear.. as mud... From AZDFD: Poaching is the illegal take of game or fish, trespassing, littering, theft or destroying property. (This is the ONLY definition of poaching I could find) Also from AZGFD: Are all violations for unlawful take of wildlife considered “poaching?” Poaching is considered to be the theft of wildlife resources from the public trust. The term “poaching” carries certain connotations with the public. Unintentional or inadvertent take of wildlife, particularly when self-reported, is not considered poaching. It can be said that, while all poaching is illegal take, not all illegal take is poaching. More simply, poaching isn’t hunting, and hunters are not poachers. So, on one page it's poaching, on another page, not so much... A question that did come to mind and about this incident: Will the civil penalties still apply? Also, did they do away with the 4x trophy deer 10K fine? I didn't see it when I was flipping through the regs. I know some of the commissioners didn't like it as their hands were tied. The question was asked of us, I would ask the OP, after all the replies and beatings on here, do you feel you poached a deer? Either way it's one deer in "one of the 40's" that I won't have the chance to chase later.

It wasn't a drawn tag. Wally World doesn't give you any dates when they scribble out your OTC tags..

Lighten up. The guy asked a question and it was answered. Yes, he poached a deer and I believe it is 100% his fault. Nobody called him a scumbag or said he should go to jail. If GnF is really only going to give him a warning then they feel the same way. It sounds like he is a stand up guy that feels bad about it and will likely never let it happen again. Nobody said they haven't made bigger mistakes but that was not the topic of his post. By definition, he poached a deer. He may also be the best, nicest, most honest, hard working guy in the state of Arizona but that is for a different thread.

Yes and no. YOU poached a buck because you listened to a third party and failed to spend the 2 minutes required to check it out with GnF. Can't blame GOHUNT for getting it wrong. (If in fact they did)

Tried a few stands at an hour each but nada. Just the doe that has been hanging around looking for her fawn.

So this is probably the rarest thing I'll ever see in the desert. Finally after the rain stopped I went out and the first deer I find.... This is the raw file. I'll add more and edit this when I get home. The fawn had been taken down prior to this clip and at the end of the clip, briefly escapes, but is caught again while the two other cats are chasing the doe.
