That kind of backfired on ya there Huntn coues. Gino needs to figure out the lesser of the 2 Give you a spot or Me on the double Good luck Gino

Hey Gamehauler- I have said those exact samethings to good old Gino for many years now. And it got me squat... If he doesn't give me one of his spots in the near future you can call me and I will tell you where that double main beam hangs.... Deal I hope he doesn't so you will share the info

I don't think I posted this one before Thought I would get your hearts going a little for the August hunt

Here are some pics of a bull with an attitude I love the last pic

You will not see this heart-stopping photo on the front page of the NY Times or on the lead story of the major news networks. The protestors put up the Mexican flag over the American flag flying upside down at Montebello High School in California. I predict this stunt will be the nail in the coffin of any guest-worker/amnesty plan on the table in ! Washington. The image of the American flag subsumed to another and turned upside down on American soil It's already spreading on Internet forums and via e-mail. Pass this along to every American citizen in your address books and to every representative in the state and federal government. If you choose to remain uninvolved, do not be amazed when you no longer have a nation to call your own nor anything you have worked for left since it will be "redistributed" to the activists while you are so peacefully staying out of the "fray". Check history, it is full of nations/empires that disappeared when its citizens no longer held their core beliefs and values. One person CAN make a difference. One plus one plus one plus one plus one plus one......... The battle for our secure borders and immigration laws that actually mean something, however, hasn't even begun.

Just what do you want to know about Unit 22 Mike

We have a good resident heard But do get elk off the rim. it really depends on the weather when they come down. Spinning your wheels? Yes-No, The more of the unit you know the better choice you can make on the area you want to hunt. The elk are going to make alot of changes between now and your hunt. This area is very popular to people from the valley, Now that spring is here you will have a hard time finding anywhere that does not have people. During the rut it is easy to locate elk but I would not count on them being there in November. Get out as much as you want, Enjoy the Rim Country and eliminate country. Mike

OK Amanda I agree, No Grong Maybe on the back (CWT.Com Recovery Team) We could wear them while going in to recover a downed animal or recovering sheds Just a thought Mike Josh I agree with Amanda!! You need a new avatar I thought you were a old man when I first joined

Hey Amanda, How about orange CWT.Com T shirts Maybe with GRONG on the pocket Mike

You Da Man Josh Great finds I zipped this weekend but got to hike a ridge I have wanted to for years Got excited for a while when I found a elk leg After about 10 min. of searching finaly found the head. Just a cow Had this girl at about 25 yards for about 2 minutes She was very calm and finaly gave me a little quarter wave and calmly walked away

Just wondering who I might run into out there. I have the Nov 30th rifle Bull tag. My daughter has the Sep 28th rifle Bull tag. Mike

W.T.K. I saw 3 red Tacomas Sat morning going thru Payson. Did you have Breakfast at the Notty Pine or Burger King? If you didn't Eat at the Notty Pine you need to. That was tradition when I lived in the Valley Chicken fried steak Mike

Hey j-rod It also looks like a typical 22 elk harvest Right before Dark Time to get the lanterns and coffee It is going to be a long night Mike

Now that is a great 22 Arc. bull Congrates Mike

Good, Idid get to see them and enjoyed the history Take good care of them Mike

Meet Morph, This funky guy kept coming in to my camera Hey WTK this what all the bulls look like in 22

Hunterdan, Great pictures, I love how you took the one of your daughter. That pig looks HUGE Thanks for posting Great photos from every one Thanks Mike

Hey Gino, Would you please tell me where you deer hunt I Promise I will not tell anyone Well maybe No, Not even him. I promise Please

If any of you guys want to, for a fee I may let you hunt my apple trees Mike

Great Dan Wish I had a job that would let me find sheds All I get to see at work are talking javelina Right Lark

I have had this or the cow hunt several times and as CnS said, it has to be one of the hardest hunts in the state. As the regs show there is only a mid teens success rate. Between my hunting buddys and myself I have been part of this hunt for at least a dozen years. We have worked VERY hard to figure it out and have done pretty good, having a success rate of about 60%. My first advise is do not bother hunting untill the 13th day Gods rule for unit 22 is that you must spend 13 cold long days in a stand before you can harvest The weather is the 2nd main controlling factor of this hunt If it does not rain before the hunt, tanks work well but that is getting harder to do with the increase of hunters on the limited number of tanks. This is even more true the second week of the hunt when the cow hunters are also out there. You more than likely will have other hunters walk in on you if you sit a tank. We have gone into or stands more than once and had a hunter sitting in it. We will quietly walk over and tell that hunter that it is my stand but you beat me here today, but I do plan on hunting here latter or tommorrow. wish them luck, ask them not to gut the animal there, and walk away. I know this sounds a little strange but as the hunter is sitting in your stand, thinking about what just happened, total confusion comes over them and they fall out and die No, really, they gain respect for your sportsmanship and will usually give you the respect and curtisy you deserve with no conflict. There are people who spot and stalk with success. the bulls generly are not in the same areas in Nov as they are in Sep during the rut making them harder to find. I do not agree with CnS on scouting now for sheds, we have found very few near our set-ups. As far a quality, My bubby laughs at me every year when I say I am holding out for a 300" plus. In all the bulls we have shot we only have 1 right at 300. My best is about a 250" 5X5. Shot a 4X4 on day 13 I had passed up twice on a GREAT year. and 2 spikes on day 13 for the freezer. Just get out there and do your best and plan on hunting the whole time. Good Luck, Mike

Shortpants, 10 minutes later and you still have me laughing Wish I would have posted it that way Thanks

HA!HA!

Come on Guys, Post up them kids. There have to be more youth hunters out there. I am starting to run out Stop Applauding Since this is a Coues wed site I guess I should post the Tag Magnets Coues. I beleive she was 12

My Girls use a Remington model 7 in 7MM-08 and has been a great gun They have used it on Javi, Coues, Antelope and cow elk. I had a muzzle break put on it and is really fun to shot. Don't forget the ear protection though. Mike
