Who is crazy enough to chase goats with a smokepole
StickFlicker replied to DeathFromBelow's topic in Antelope Hunting
Whether they could do it or not isn't really the point. They claim (and I'm not trying to defend AZGFD) that it is statistically irrelevant. I did the math for antelope, based on the suggested "sitting out two years if drawn suggested above". The odds of drawing an antelope tag (combining rifle, muzzy and archery together) after requiring drawn hunters to sit out for two years would increase the odds of getting drawn from 2.9% to 3.1%. Would that make you feel all warm and fuzzy? -

StickFlicker replied to DeathFromBelow's topic in Antelope Hunting
According to Game and Fish, buckshotaz's idea would eliminate such a few people from the draw that it would not statistically change the odds. It would just require lots more work and enforcement from the department with no real benefit to the hunters other than perhaps "feeling better" about it because they don't have to hear of people getting drawn two years in a row. -

Congratulations on your Arizona success. How is your dad doing on the hunt?

Mine are not the newest HD version, but the older dark green SLCs. My case is just flimsy black nylon with no padding at all. The zipper tab broke off almost immediately. Maybe they're giving you something nicer now?

Is Fed bison purge/hunt on park still happening this month?
StickFlicker replied to MT_Sourdough's topic in Buffalo Hunting
Congratulations on your success, and thanks for the details on your hunt! -
Awesome buck, congratulations!
-
The case that mine came in is a complete piece of crap. I don't know why you'd want one (although it doesn't look like the one pictured above, which is much nicer than the one that came with mine).

That's awesome, congratulations to her!

Northerner heading South in January (recap)
StickFlicker replied to Rawmeat's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
Statewide hunt success for OTC archery deer is around 6%. Bucks are easier to find while they're moving during the rut. The further north in the state you are, the earlier the rut occurs. Northern Arizona mule deer rut in late November, while it's late December in the desert units in the lower half of the state. The Coues deer rut peaks in early to mid-January. -

StickFlicker replied to MT_Sourdough's topic in Buffalo Hunting
Congratulations on filling your tag! Can you tell us more about how many buffalo you saw, how the others did, etc.? I think in the fall they are all cow tags? Did you see bulls, nice bulls, etc.? -
Congrats to her! I drew it as well. How many points did she have?

StickFlicker replied to MT_Sourdough's topic in Buffalo Hunting
I don't understand how the Federal government can do this with bison owned by the State of Arizona? Wildlife is owned by states, regardless of whose land it is on. If an elk wanders onto my private land, I can't kill it because it doesn't belong to me. Likewise, the bison that wander onto the National Park don't belong to the Park Service. Why isn't the AZ Game and Fish filing a law suit to prevent this?!?! -
Are there any decent bucks left in unit 21?
StickFlicker replied to 308Nut's topic in Mule Deer Hunting
Remember, the further north you go, the earlier the rut begins. -
Awesome buck, great job!

PRDATR, maybe that's because KFC does sell grilled chicken (although not in all locations), and have off and on in some locations for probably 10 years. https://www.kfc.com/menu/chicken/grilled

Great looking buck, Saguaro!

Toyota Tacoma vs Nissan Frontier
StickFlicker replied to Non-Typical Solutions's topic in The Campfire
I've never owned either of those actual models, but I've owned trucks from both companies (mostly Tundra's or the older Toyotas before the Tacoma). The Toyotas seem much more solid, better skid plates, etc. than did the Nissans. I've had very good luck with Toyota trucks, with my previous Tundra having good resale value even with 228,000 miles on it, with almost everything original but a little transmission work 110,000 miles into it. I don't even look at the Nissans anymore. -
Namibia July 2018 ( a return to Africa)
StickFlicker replied to Kilimanjaro's topic in Hunting in Africa
Awesome trip! cji, I believe the pics of the dead treas is actually in Deadvlei, which is near Sosusvlei (where they are standing in front of the sign). It's famous for a time when it rained so much that the river flooded and formed these two salt pans (marsh). It eventually dried-out leaving these dead camel thorn trees. They're in the middle of the giant red sand dunes. The trees are famously photographed, and are believed to be 600-700 years-old. They aren't petrified, they just don't rot away because the area receives nearly zero annual rainfall, so it's just too dry for them to break down and deteriorate. -
The 2018 leftover list is now up on G&F website.
StickFlicker replied to knothead's topic in The Campfire
That is bad luck. Next year you'll have one more bonus point than usual, so should be a slam dunk. -

Looks like there are more to me too. -

Thanks, RR. I just looked for them about two hours or so ago and they weren't there yet. -
Thanks for letting us know. That's good news!
