Non-Typical Solutions

I'm new on the board, and new to the coues hunting, pressure, illegals and all other factors that play into a hunting unit, specifically the southern units. But here is my two cents worth. Unit 36B in the month of October-1025 whitetail rifle permits, 175 mulie rifle permits and 90 javalina hunter permits November-1025 whitail rifle permits, 225 mulie rifle permits and 60 javalina hunter permits December-200 whitetail rifle permits This does not take in to account any archery tags that go to 36B. I don't know much at all about unit 36B, looks kind of small geographically, but can a unit like this take a pounding like that? I am asking because I don't know. I have hunted unit 10 muledeer for years, but that area is huge and you can usually find a canyon or ridge that you can hunt without being too interupted, it is full of road hunters so if you have a notion to get out of your truck, you can usually actually hunt. I worry about government clamping down on priviledges, but maybe we do overhunt some areas. I do know one thing, once they take it away, they don't usually give it back.

Guess I should have taken you up on that scouting trip Casey, sorry I was booked up here with work and getting my kid through hunter safety course. He did pass the test, so instead of my wife having a tag, she is going to sign it over to the little guy. He is pumped and of course, so am I. Good job on the dove hunting trip.

Uummm...AMEN

OK, we'll just go ahead and ignore the problem.....anybody got a phone number for the BP they will share with me? It's all about hunting, and dealing with the hunt. Some of you out there it might be a stoll in the park for you cause you have been dealing with it for years. Some of us haven't so cut us a little slack if you don't mind.

Don't have a problem with doing my own yard work, or fixin my own roof. Hoed my fair share of cotton in my day and shoveled my fair share of pig cr@6. I even worked side by side with a few illegals. They were a very respectful people, worked hard, didn't take what didn't belong and if you didn't see them, you would never know how they got here or how they got back to Mexico. Teaching school up at Ash Fork we had alot of illegals working in the quarries out in the hills. When BP was coming through town, parents would frantically come to the school to get their kids so they wouldn't get picked up. My frustration comes with what is happening to the land, hospitals, public schools. I don't have a problem with someone who wants to come to this country legally, contribute to the system and reap the benefits of living in the best country in the world. I really don't care what nationality they are or where they come from. Packing drugs.........that falls into a whole different catagory, no punishment is good enough for those sorry individuals I don't care what supply and demand says.

Who is the builder of your gun?

NICE

I'm reading an old Revolutionary War Novel with my 10 year old......he is pretty facinated with the way the "rebels" stuck their necks out on behalf of liberty and freedoms. I like the idea of calling this stuff in, I am going to program the BP number into my cell phone for when I am hunting down there. They are going to hear it from me when I see activity. I really don't blame the men working BP, I blame the system. And since I don't have a tag myself, I am packing my camera with me. When we went down there a couple of weeks ago, we visited with the BP for quite some time, it was probably about 1:00 in the morning. They claim that they collect an average of 300 illegals a shift and they run three shifts in a 24 hour period. They said, "we have guys out in the washes right now, 1:00am, picking up illegals

I don't get what is so hard to get about this business, we need to start emailing photos like this to Napalitano, McCain, Bush, just flooding their computers with the damage and distruction that is occuring in our southern border areas. I have to admit that since my wife drew the 36B tag, my eyes have been opened.

Got my deer tag money, not worth the paper printed on.....but there is still life....my wife and son have 36B tags in october, nothing like scouting brand new country.....looking very forward to the trip and hunt.....

OK, here is the story, I made an error on my deer application, instead of hunt 1108, I put hunt 1118. SO...that threw me into a unit I have no info on, never hunted, and have had stories from friends about how there are big coues, but too many problems with hunters and border crossers. Can anybody give me an idea of what I am up against. Looking forward to a good coues hunt, just want to be prepared... Thanks, Redneck

That is funny 270, that is exactly what my wife told me this morning....we didn't get to do any shopping with the refund checks yet.........

I'll just keep praying.....won't tell her.....works out better that way...

Kind of an erieeeeee site no doubt....

No tags...no money....they are banking with my money.....My wife reminded me this morning that we had not gotten our checks back, she always prays that we won't get drawn for something so we can get money back.....

Oh yeah, that is why I thought I might get a hit from you if I mentioned the other bumper sticker. Guess I am going to have to figure out how to get ahold of one of those coueswhitetail.com stickers....

Yup that was us, hope we didn't disturb too much on you there. We blundered around in the dark until 5:00 in the morning bumping into locked gates etc. That canyon does look pretty sweet above where you were there. Sorry about misquoting the bumper sticker, that sounded pretty harsh didn't it.

Went down to 36B for the first time ever this past weekend. Kicked around the Tumacacories,(sp??) saw alot of sign, got there too late for early morning. Man was that place trashy.....had to climb over backpacks and waterjugs to get through the wash. Came across lion track as well. Plus a rig with an interesting bumper sticker, "assassination from a distance".....kind of made me look around and over my shoulder. Looks like great country, I am getting excited for the coues hunt.....

OK, so I am a rookie on this forum thing...how do I view the pics for this thread? Redneck

Wow, actually sounds kind of interesting. I have spent the last 15 years hunting mulies up in unit 10. They have sold off alot of that unit just north of Ash Fork, 40 acre parcels, and the biggest problem with that hunt is bumping into landowners who are now the proud owners of what used to be your honey hole. Lots of signs like "trespassers will be shot" type of stuff. Looking forward to a good change of venue down south. I hunted 34B I think it is about 20 years ago and enjoyed watching those little coues appear out of thin air that I had been glassing for the last three hours. Thanks for the heads up info, sounds like fun. Redneck
