I was fortunate to participate in my 7th sheep hunt this week. It never gets old. Congrats to your buddy on a great ram! Kudos to you for being there with him.

Congratulations to the young lady and her team! Way to get it done, great ram. Best pic of the bunch is that ram with that big ol grin on her face. Ain't no faking that! Sweet!

You broke this down very well. That guy is a trip. Got humiliated and pulled a gun.

I've got a 12x14 Davis. No floor for me.

DPR64 Congrats on your bull, very nice! Thanks for coming back on and sharing your pics with us, how about a little story on your hunt?

Those of us that got left out last year when the leftover were meager and went quick probably wised up and applied this year. At least I did. I haven't applied otherwise in years because I could always count on a leftover in a number of units. I think those days are over.

Seen a video of Markus diving in the water to get a line off the rudder to land a fish. They've been legit for a long time. I wouldn't hesitate to fish with those guys.

Look politics aside, these guys saved a bunch of lives recently. Highly commendable! https://www.sandiegofishreports.com/fish_reports/180007/san-diego-heroes-honored-for-miraculous-lifesaving-rescue-at-sea.php

My very similar Grizzly made the cut as my backup bow for my Kaibab deer hunt. Not just good IMO, great bows! That bow is about as old as me and looks none the worse for wear, in fact much better! Congrats great deal guys!

Get something that you can tolerate carrying a quarter or at least some backstraps or something back to camp. Otherwise pocket layout seems to be what a lot of people prioritize. This is one of those deals IMO that once you get serious might as well buy once, cry once like optics. For me that meant Made in USA from Kifaru. Also hear great things about Stone Glacier and Seek Outside.

Like you guys said, if this is a "tragedy" he is a pretty privileged person!

^This right here.^ This will NEVER end.

If you decide to split stuff I might be interested.

nevermind, package deal...

Teaching your kids to steal is worse than the stealing IMO. Hope ya'll catch these morons.

For me the biggest obstacle was the mental challenge of staying motivated. As much time as possible is critical. You could get lucky and have one come in on the first day but odds he is in for a long, boring ordeal. You can only watch the same squirrels, chipmunks, and deer so long before things get old. Have a few good books, games, etc and great snacks to keep you guys going. Maybe schedule a change of personnel to come for a few days to change things up. I had my cousin a few days, my buddy a few days, and a few days myself, 12 days total until I got it done on a 14 day hunt.

My cousin and his soon to be ex wife are/were really into it. I should have been learning this stuff a long time ago but never too late. I can identify boletes, lobsters, chanterelles, and of course morels.

Not one of the best varieties but this Slippery Jack is edible.

Not personally messed with one of those winches but seen it done before.

Well I wanted to post some pics from Alaska but most are jacked up and sideways, going to need to edit them with something on my computer first I guess.

I see it as the same as operating an aircraft. Game and Fish only has so much jurisdiction. Its not like you can't fly an airplane over Arizona during a hunt, but you better not be talking to anybody on the ground. Same crap with this camera nonsense. Might not want to use it for hunting but there is nothing stopping anybody from still using a camera in the forest or wherever if you aren't using it for "take".

Ya the cell cams have been illegal for a while for sure. I just read the thread title and overlooked the cell part. My bad.

Still legal here and will be until all of the land management agencies weigh in on photography on their lands. Game and Fish only has jurisdiction on take so there will always be cams on the landscape. If anyone believes they are going to all of a sudden disappear because of the dumb new rule for 2022, I got some Ocean Front Property for you, right here in Yuma!!!

I want to, but I can't commit to anything. My freezer is full. If I don't kill a deer, maybe. I want a Dorado bad!

Hit me up too, I reported it right away.
