COUESAZ

I was talking to that bird once and asked him what he thought about the saying " it taste like chiken". He said he did not believe it. He said a parrot taste like Javalina. Go figure even birds think Javalina taste bad.

Make sure you check you tie down straps to make sure they are good. I lost my Polaris Ranger today off my trailer. Lucky for me it turned out to just be a heart attack. I was out on a dirt road and driving slow he king the side hill across from me for bear. It is covered in prickly pears. I had just told my kids if this guy in the ranger did not stop tail gating me I was going to stop and beat him up. My son said dad that's the ranger on our trailer.hahaha that was the funny part. Then about half a mile over the hill I look in my mirror and to my horror my ranger has stopped tailgating us. Right away my mind goes to the huge hill I had just over and see visions of my ranger over the edge in the bottom of the canyon. I leave my wife and daughters with the truck and my oldest son and I take off running. Me on my healing broken ankle. We come up over the next hill and setting there at the bottom smack dab in the center of the road was my ranger. All do to a broken strap. I usually put a strap on each corner. this time I only had two straps. So it was not a good thing all the way around. jUST CHECK THOSE STRAPS.

5' is to narrow for a Ranger. I am looking to buy one also but everyone wants the same price as a trailer lot. Craig's list has not even had any.

We went back and forth over our second daughters name. Even after she was born she was known in the hospital as baby girl Goodman. Until righ at the last moment my wife said we are going to change things up and name her after her dad. Well now all they knew me at the hospital as was the name on my wrist band. That is Thomas Goodman. The nurse said oh how special will you just call her tommy, knowing Thomas just would not work well. My wife said no my husband goes by his Middle name "Jade". So she will be Tatum Jade Goodman. So we call Her Tator tott. Haha. But anyways I like have one of my daughters holding my name and out anitials are TJG. We had girl, boy, girl, boy.

Saw a white dodge setting in front of taco taste in safford. That place has the best ice cold Pepsi you will ever drink on this earth.

Another thing is if that dog is on the side of the highway eating road kill that collar may have a dead battery. The new gps collars do no last very long when it comes to lost hounds. If its an old tracker type then the battery may still be good.

Oops pushed the button to fast. My father in law has a stock rhino they are smaller so they can fit in a truck bed if you needed it to. It can go into some tighter spots, but the roll over danger is much higher because the wheel base is so short and skinny. Wheel spacers are a must for safety. The seats are way comfortable. It is a rough ride and rattles very bad. My neighbor has a stock arctic cat and it is trash in my mind. Fills like a kids toy. It rattles more then the rhino. I hate the square tube cage. It has a very high center of gravety and the seats set way to high up. They do make a new one. Ow that will seat three riders up front and the center of gravity is much better an seats are set lower. They are all nice for a hunting tool. I'm sure you will be pleased with what ever your choice is.

Like my Ranger.some of the pros are Quiet, smooth ride, plenty of power, big enough for my family of six with the rear seat placed in the bed, better stability so you don't tip as easy as rhino. Some cons are to big to fit in the bed of a truck, seats are more like a golf cart. Mine is a 2007 Polaris ranger 700 xp.

Hounds are ment to hunt. You will never take that out of them and a Plott is very hard headed and driven that's why they make such great bear dogs. Like Randy said a chain is about all you can do. A friend of ours has had great success with the collar that works with the wirless fence set up. There dog got out of everything they could think of. It tried to get past that fence twice. It will never try it again.

My brother and I drew 2 December tags in 34b. Brother in law and nephew drew 2 unit one mule deer tags. Another nephew drew a unit 1 bull tag. My dad drew a unit 4 bull tag. So with that and bear and lion we should be hunting almost every weekend the rest of the year.

Hey I have the sparkly red one to. Mine is a 2007 700 xp. I will tell you I you get the Polaris you will not regret it at all.I have put close to a thousand into it this week. I had to get new tires a windshield and then my drive belt broke. But it has 2600 miles on it. I was told this week to not use 4x4 in high gear that heats and stresses the belts. I have only used the ranger and rhino and I will go ranger hands down every time for my needs. When I put the rear seat in I fit all six of my family in.

No I did not fall thru the cracks. I just purchased the white Rhino with the sticker on it already. And it had a cracker jack box in the glove box. Well in that cracker jack box was a neatly wrapped prize and inside that prize was my very own guide license. Don't be a hater of THAT GUY.

It held up against us ont the Navajo a few years ago. But then again they are there own nation ( kind of) but I would hope it would not hold up in our Nation.

Very fun. I showed it to everyone in my house. They all loved it.

Did anyone else see the story of the teen in Florida that lost his right arm in a gator attack in Florida. The king of the swamp had his chance to say how important it is to hunt and keep the numbers in check not only for the people but more to insure a healthy population of game animals for there own sake. Very well said on the subject.

I'm not complaining. I think it's great all that money comes into Arizona. I do buy a few tickets. But my opinion is I would not win even if it was only drawn from Thatcher. I don't have good luck. Hahaha so I was just glad to see an Az hunter on the list.

Only one Arizona Boy. That way it's sure to bring in more money.

I'm headed there in about 10 minutes. The boys and I need a little ride on the ranger so we will run by and take a look at it.

Took the family up Tripp canyon a week ago. We went as far as the ranger cabin and the look out tower. Then the kids wanted lunch so we went back to a spot we saw to have a nice lunch and then headed down the canyon. I want to go back up and ride it out to the end. I did it when I was young in my dads old jeep, but do not remember how far the road goes past the look out tower.Can't figure how to post photos from my I phone.

My son has the trifecta. So it also has the 22lr barel. I need to order new open sites for it somehow. It was all set up for scopes when we got it second hand.

Leave it up to first coues to say to much. He has been known to lead people astray but this is going a bit to far. Haha.

Well running out to Daily estates in thatcher tonight to go see my cousin. I could see right at the top of the mountain was a small fire. But then when I got back to my house closer to town I could not see it anymore. Probably just the angle. We will see in the morning if there is smoke.

I miss ARIZONA GUIDE the most. I think he had the best and most knowledge out of all the old time Coues Whitetail forum members. I am Sure he would only fight with the other old forum member that went by CHD. Amanda don't you remember ARIZONA GUIDE he had his handle changed to oh what was it again oh yea COUESAZ.

Well a few miles away from fire number one above fry Mesa is now a fire number two. I hope they don't decide to back burn the area between them so they only have to fight one fire.
