Free bump for a smoking deal 😂

Big 5 has had pretty good deals on youth puffer pants in the past and all their ski stuff should be out. Good luck on the hunt. I grabbed my sons off eBay, another option

Youth turkey hit

Great deer!

I’m NE Mesa also. I have a half a box lying around if you want to Shoot me a PM

Fantastic job to keep pushing!! Great job!

Walmart and kings are what we did. Midway has some end of year sales too. Sportsman’s has the youth kings stuff so you can try it on and confirm sizes too. We have found good deals on insulation on eBay, but not as much camo. where are you located? I may have a pair of pants my son just outgrew.

It’s pricy at $60 and $80 something but nosler factory 280 AI 140 gr BT and AB are back in stock on their website

I re-read the initia post as well, my bad. Congrats on the bear!

Did you check it in with AZGFD at the ADA camp in 23 by chance?

Sounds like a great hunt! Thanks for the write up! Congratulations!

After missing at first light on opening day and spending Saturday jockeying with other hunters, my son punched his tag Sunday morning. Second cow tag he’s filled and he turns 12 Wednesday. Aside from the tag being filled, it was a great hunt. He got to see bulls sparring and we were right in a lot of bugling still. He’s able to handle most of the gates finally which was a huge plus for me. I hiked him up and down some steep stuff and into and out of some thick nasty stuff, and he packed out a front quarter even that was probably half his body weight. Beyond proud. Now the processing fun begins. Huge thanks to Dave and all the ADA volunteers for a great camp. You do an amazing job. sorry for the sideways pic

Awesome deer and congrats on what sounds like a great weekend

Thank you for straightening it!

It’s a special time for sure. Has taught me a loooooooot of patience.

Congrats on doubling up!

Congrats and great job!

Awesome write up and awesome ending!! That is a beast of a cow for sure! Congratulations!

So my son has a cow elk tag and a buddy’s son has the deer tag for the youth 23 hunt. We’ll be at the ADA camp and supporting them if any of y’all are up there for those tags or need a hand with anything. Good luck to all the youth hunters coming up! We are heading up scouting again tomorrow after school, and I’ll try to post some pics if I remember to take some. He was lucky enough to tag out on this hunt last year and Can’t wait to give it a go again!

Well come see you, much appreciated. Gonna head up after sunset glassing, 01 black sequoia or 04 black expedition. Thank you.

Free bump so someone else buys it while I’m still able to resist. Have two of these and both are shooters

Back up here tonight. Glassed up lots of elk, still not seeing a lot of deer. Excited to check in the camp tomorrow. We glassed some literally in the same spot he shot his elk last year which was pretty cool. Hoping they stay put another 36 hours. good luck to everyone. Enjoy the time, punching tags or not!

Great motor. Have an 01 sequoia with 223k on it. Timing belt is only downside. Nice low end power.

You are awesome for doing this, thank you
