    Daughters first general cow hunt

    I didn't intend to comment on the bear. Honestly, I didn't even read the story. Whether I'm OK with it or not, I suppose isn't really relevant. Sounds like they backed out and came back at some point (He didn't say "for days".... In reading his write-up it sounds like it was likely the next day.), and the rain made it impossible to track/recover. Sucks to shoot an animal and end-up losing it. Never happened to me personally but have been on hunts where it's happened to partners. It's a drag. I just saw the father daughter pics and thought it was cool.

    Scumbags

    Pretty good write-up on it. Lead weights and lie detectors: The scandal that rocked a Cleveland fishing tournament and became worldwide news (yahoo.com)

    Oh boy, I’m definitely no expert. I think whether the water every day or not, it’s really gonna depend on how lush the feed currently is, and whether there is any heavy dew or rain to hydrate them.

    Ah..... Bummer! Cool that your initial scouting efforts paid off! No single right/wrong answer regarding whether to continue to focus your scouting on the area you have already identified or to look for a backup. Maybe both? Check-in on that area for a couple of hours and see if you can turn those deer up again. Also maybe try to ID any water they may be hitting in proximity to where you saw them. Then after you've spent a couple of hours on that area, possibly spend a couple of hours looking at new country? Good luck to your son!

    Hmmm...... Interesting. Good catch! (Strange that there are NO deer camps listed on their site...) Anyone planning on it should confirm with AZG&F and/or YOU prior, I suppose.

    Absolutely check-in with the YOU junior hunt camp! Those guys are top notch and can provide some tips for the area. Good luck! S.

    Beginner workout program

    LOTS of different options and opinions, I'm sure. For me, I've found that lots of hiking, hot yoga 2-3 times a week, and low carb/sugar eating works best. I just can't do gyms/bikes/etc.... Good luck finding some thing that works for you! S. Edit: Never mind. I just realized you are intending to use 24hr (gym). Sorry.... Can't help you. Good luck, Kevin!

    Died and Went to Hillbilly Heaven

    I'm a fan of almost all music. Love the blue grass cover stuff. Here's one of my favorites from 20+ years ago.....
  14. Anyone using an inflatable kayak for fishing? I've got a buddy that uses one (as opposed to a belly-boat or pontoon) on lakes to fish with, and he swears by it. Was up at Christmas Tree last summer with a bunch of guys, and kayak-friend sure did look comfortable and dry. Plus he was able to paddle around quite easily. I've been looking at some, and am sort of settling on either the Aquaglide Blackfoot Angler or Advance Elements StraitEdge Angler. (Leaning towards the Aquaglide, because I like the idea of two-person capacity if/when wanted...) Anyone using a kayak instead of pontoon or tube? Feedback, if you are? S.

    Wildlife Photography Forum?

    DONE! Photography of Coues Deer and Other Wildlife - CouesWhitetail.com Discussion forum Sort of just did it without checking-in with the head-honcho, but I think she would be OK with it.

    Hurricane Kay

    Always nice to see a picture like that. The local weather guys are bearish on whether it will produce significant rain up here, but who knows. (They often do NOT know... ). You guys in Yuma of course are much closer, so there's that....

    Bug spray recommendations

    +1 on some of the comments. Breath, farts, sweat, funk, bug-spray….. Just try to be down wind at ALL costs, IMO. To answer the question though, no, I haven’t come across anything scentless that is as effective as some good ol’ smelly Deep Woods Off.

    I think Casey pretty much already said if you are interested in fostering, that you should direct your inquiries to the link he posted above.

    Great Danes in general, have a fairly significantly shorter life span than the average dog.

    E-Tags

    E-tags or not, poachers are gonna poach. Pretty sure that E-tags will have ZERO impact on dudes who double dip (or more) in any given year.

    E-Tags

    Literally what I’ve done for New Mexico pronghorn the last two hunts, since E-tags were rolled out there. 😂
