DUG

I got 6a turkey and son and I got 23 archery javelina.

I'm surprised we didn't run into you up there. We were up there the 1st 4 days and the last 2 days. We heard a lot of people got little bucks by road hunting. We were surprised the forest service did a prescribed burn in the middle of the week. It was right where my wife jumped 3 nice bucks on the 3rd day. Anyway those are awesome pics you took. Here's a couple of does that came into a waterhole right after we left.

Congrats on a very nice buck!

Very nice buck. Way to follow your instincts and make something happen.

Way to go! That is a great 1st deer.

My bad , I just assumed it was in Arizona. I'll shut up now.

Definitely a cool pic, but I hope the date on the game cam is wrong.

only 25 days and counting...find yourself some nice bucks...whens lucas's elk hunt again?..ill try and go for a day with you guys Ryan, Luke's hunt is the 19th. Hope you can come up for a day or 2.

I got Duwane's and Tony's book and there is lots of good stuff in it. I have also ordered maps from Duwane and am awaiting their arrival. We are going up to scout this weekend and learn some areas. My wife and I have the early 12A west hunt. She is not quite as excited about the hunt as I am.

Very nice x2! Way to go.

Way to go! Ryan said you were in bulls about every day. Can't wait for the story and pics.

Congrats on your elk! Those 100 grain Muzzy's are death dealers.

One male left. Sounds like TATAat27 got 2 of them. Hope you enjoy them.

4 males/ 1 female. They have 2nd shots. Parents on site and they hunt. P.M. me for sellers info. We bought a brother and sister from this litter. They are very cute and smart. One of the males has a curly coat and another has a mostly solid liver head. They are already looking for birds. The sellers are asking $300. P.m. me if you are interested and I'll set you up with the sellers. Hopefully DownTheBarrel will ask his mommy and daddy if he can get one.

Doug, how long are these prices good for? I might be looking at the Pentax 10 x50 you have.

Your welcome and post some pics! Let us know what you name them. Our female is Hailey and our male is Muzzy.

TATAat27, I hope you and your wife get a puppy or two. They are great. Let us know if you get one.

4 males left. These are now free to good homes. Will be 11 weeks on Monday.

They are offering to give us one for free if we want it. If we didn't have the lab on the way we probably would. These pups can also be seen on AZCentral.com. Go into pets and go to dogs and then the Brittanys are on page 3. I'm pretty sure price is negotiable.

Try to buy a few different selections and see which one groups best in your gun. I shoot a BAR in .270 and the Federal premiums group the best in my gun. 130 grain Sierra GameKings group well for me and so do 150 grain Partitions. Remingtons are all over the place.

A few years back I had an antlerless elk tag. I was walking a fenceline and came across a calf elk hung up on the fence. Her hoof had caught between the top strand and the 2nd strand. She was stuck and not going anywhere. She was struggling to get away. I could tell she had a broken leg and maybe even dislocated her hip. A few minutes later a guy and girl came up on the other side of the fence. He wedged a stick in the strands and got the elk loose. She went about 40 yards and stopped and looked back at us. I could have legally killed this elk. But to me that would have been too easy. It's not the way I want to fill my tag. The girl with the tag did not want to shoot it either. Not sure where I'm going with this story but it is similar to what gr8 white jr. ran across.

My wife and I drew Kaibab early rifle and my son and I got 37B Nov. javelina. We'll try to get a leftover Kaibab turkey tag if there's some left.

Those are cool looking. Need to find the sheds of the bruiser we saw today.

Seeing those pictures bring back a lot of memories. My friend and I did a rim to rim to rim hike about 16 years ago. Did almost 43 miles in 19 hours. One year a group from work hiked down to Phantom Ranch. There were turkeys down there back then, too. I remember seeing a huge mule deer buck hanging around the cabins. Hope to do another hike down there soon. Thanks for the story and pics.

I have a ripcord on my XT and have had no problems with it. The guy who set up my bow said it was one of the easiest rests to setup and tune.
