Even though they are the mild cats, I will jump on the band wagon and root for em...........

Tick tock tick...........20 more days till Xmas, you can wrap them up or wear em home.

Something this size is more like a shrimp boat, straight to the bottom!!!!!!!

Just under 23 days until someone can unwrap these awesome boots for Xmas or wear these on during the up coming deer rut hunts. Anybody who's somebody knows that Danner makes a great boot. At $100 bucks these are a steal.

Due to my sons jr WT hunt in Oct, followed by my cow elk in in Oct I didn't have any time for any pre-scouting for my 36A Muley hunt. I was tickled pink that I received a tag but knew it was going to be a very tough hunt since there were 1200+ combined back to back WT/Muley hunts and hearing that some of the ranches had locked the gates for access into that area. Got up super early and hit the road from camp and made it to spot I had seen mule deer about 3 yrs ago. I know what your thinking, 3 years seems like a long time. Oh well, it's a start. I immediately see some WT across a canyon and start to really focus in the deep ravine. I pull out the 15's and start scanning way off in the distance and notice some pigs. I hear some shots to the east and start glassing that way, I noticed 2 hunters along top of a ridge about 500 yds off. They settle on a rock and start glassing the canyon I am in. I look toward the pigs again and notice the rear end of a mule deer duck into a small ravine. No idea what gender but knew it was a Muley. The two other hunters head toward the recent shots and headed east. I never saw the Muley exit the canyon so I knew it was either bedded or feeding slowly. I pack up and headed that direction. I get to the base of this small hill knowing the ravine is just up the way. As I caress the top, I get behind some mesquites and slowly start looking into the bottom. Nothing, must be bedded. I move along the the top and whamo, a deer pops up and antlers start to shine/glimmer in the sunlight. As most mule deer do, it proceeds to bounce away. I line up and squeeze the trigger, the bullet hits him in the ® front shoulder. He buckles and slows way down, he stops behind an ocotillo and I shoot again, shot above him and he trots off again. Third shot and he goes down. Found out that the shots I heard earlier were from a buddy of mine in the next canyon over. We had a total of 6 tags and we filled 3 opening morning. I was very pleased with the outcome on this late of a hunt.

For the past 12 yrs it's been on the beach in Rocky Point. You can't beat rum & cokes during the day watching the tide roll away, having the chitlins run themselves ragged on the beach followed by a traditional style turkey dinner. The cervezas in the morning, rum & cokes in the midday followed by wine and homemade cheese cake in the evening........WOW. I have often thought about applying for late season elk tags the day after Thanksgiving but it's kinda hard to break traditions. As for shooting stuff, we always have the potato gun on hand to shoot at the seagulls, they are just as bad as those nasty pigeons or crows we have. Happy Thanksgiving to all, be safe and if you have tag............fill it!!!!!

Opening morning 10/17 @ 7:25 AM, unit 27 cow tag filled. Only 3 out of a group of 10 tag holders in our camp were lucky enough to fill tags. It was a great weekend, the bulls were still bugling and it was exciting getting on them to see herds any where from 7 on up to 40 cows with them. The other two guys who filled their tags were first time elk hunters, furthermore it was their first kill ever. The nights were very chilly waking up to frozen water and ice on everything. Dropped off all 3 to Miller's in Springerville, can't wait. Fantastic hunt, now just waiting for my Muley hunt in November.

270 WSM, no doubt the best all around, especially the Kimber Classic, very light and oooooooooohhhhhhhh so nice to shoot.

I remember when I was 14 it was me, my dad, my younger brother and my good friend and his dad went archery hunting in 36B. We got to our camp and noticed my brothers sleeping bag and mine had blown out of the truck. Dad said, let's go to Nogales and pick some up at Kmart or Yellow Front. We get down there and the wind is just howling, he says not the best time to set up camp, we might as well cross the border for lunch and what not. Well being 14 and not knowing what "what not was" we all agreed. Well we ended up on Canal Street, 1st time I had a beer and the 1st time I was approached by a hooker. Needless to say, both dads laughing hysterical and learned the phrase "no gracias" Been going down south to the 36's for years, (pig, deer, quail) tons of illegal sign (trash to make shift huts) but never an issue with illegals. Going down again Nov 14-20 for my Muley hunt in 36A, hopefully an uneventful trip with the illegals. Always carrying my sidearm and long gun. I surely won't go down without a fight. Be safe and keep your eyes open.

TTT

Saw this guy a week week before my boys jr hunt in Redington, needless to say he never saw another sunrise. Even though he wasn't bothering anyone I felt obligated to add another rattle to my collection.

What do you mean you can't blame him..............It was up to him to put it through the uprights and he missed, so they lost. If you are supposedly one of the best in the nation you DON'T MISS

And it begins, the W slowly starts to turn upside down and before you know it, it becomes the M........University of Mildcats

Jake got drawn for unit 33 jr hunt Oct 10-16. With all the family sports going on we had to make this a day to day hunt, we got up at 3:30 and hit the road by 4:00. I was a little leary about a creek we had to cross (by foot) due to the 5+ inches of rain the past two nights up on Mt Lemmon. I was right, it took us an additional 30 minutes walking down stream to find a passable spot without getting totally soaked. We headed up the mountain and got to our glassing spot with ample time to get situated to start glassing. Immediately saw some does below us feeding, I told Jake time to make some $$. Once again to keep an eleven year old interested in glassing I would pay him $2.00 a doe and $5.00 a buck. Well right away the boy was $4.00 richer, he spotted a doe and a fawn. Right about that time I picked up 2 bucks about 800 yds away, I told him we got horn let's go. We backed around and got within 380 yds, I wasn't comfortable with him taking that shot even though I new the rifle could. We backed around again and he earned another $4.00 bucks, darn kid was gettin rich. We got on top of this little ridge and had to get on our knees and sometimes duck walk for about 80 yds to get to where these guys were at. That wasn't pleasant due to all the shin daggers. We got set up and ranged the 1st buck at 232 and the 2nd buck at 240. We tried prone, not comfortable we tried using the bi-pod wiggling too much. Finally after 20 minutes of getting things just right he said, " dad, I am ready". I told him I would keep an eye on both bucks just shoot and chamber another round in case you need it. He shot at the closer one and it jumped straight up and high-tailed it around the tree where the 2nd buck was at. I couldn't tell if he hit it but the reaction of the 2nd buck it appeared that he was looking at his buddy rolling on the ground. A few minutes go by and the 1st buck walks off unscathed, I tell Jake shoot at the 2nd buck which was just standing out in the open. Bam......Buck goes down @ 240 yds. Hooting and high fives and a few knuckle punches. We walk down and start the fun after a few pics. And wouldn't you know it, as we are dragging the deer we jump a very nice 3x and of course it stops at 100 yds and turns and does the nanny nanny doodoo you can't shoot me. Oh well, always next year. Dropped off at WGP and now it is relax time.

It could have gotten expensive, good thing I found those buck early. 3rd year sounds good, except I got 2 more chitlins right around the corner just itchin to make some $$.
