look to spend most of your scouting during late august early sept into Oct as your prime time in the woods. It's the rut the bulls will be bugling - stay up late and drive the roads listening for distant bugles - mark these spots on a map . bulls always follow cows! even after the rut -during your late hunt the bulls will not travel to far from these spots - just look for any hills/ mtns/water holes and find the bedding areas on the n/e slopes bingo

yeah for country thunder- sold my boots - guy had to have a new pair for country thunder - lol

8 is a great late unit - just for the fact that the roads are almost always maintained,right up to the winter closures and even then the main roads will be open and you have great access to some good winter range. late hunts can really depend on the snow fall in and around bill Williams good luck

congrats to all those who drew a tag and hope you all success come aug - sept - I'd like to start a new thread that involves the number of elk you seen scouting or hunting - you do not even have to mention the unit or units - just to see how many herds/ numbers of elk are actually around like morman lake in yrs past over a 1000 was the usual - I didn't see account for last yr but I bet it was about 1/2 that anyway good luck to all

well it is B.S. that they waste time and effort and resources trying to allow - DENIED credit cards when regs clearly state they will be refused!!

over harvest is not the problem G&F have been fabricating hunter success for yrs. just like the fly over herd counts - no way to get accurate info from one pass and return from any unit and then use that to calculate the population talk to the people who live there - pick any unit - they just laugh at the #'s posted by G&F most say they never see any G&F personal in the field.

time stamps are correct -

the A-5 game spy - I got 2 0f these for like $115 with a 2 yr warranty on ebay they take 4 c batteries they are the cheapest in the new 2013-14 line -up I put one out on my property in unit 10 in sept-13 -- it took 11135 pictures it used 7.6 on the 8 mg card on 4 c energizers it lasted till feb 26th - that's 6 mo. these are 5 mp- pics - 90% were just trees and grass moving but that's my fault - I didn't realize how sensitive these cameras were. clarity varied due to the weather wind and sun direction. this yr I'll clear a bigger area heres a few samples I have salt blocks out they take great 10 second videos too on the other property I got over 3500 pics which include elk deer coyote fox bobcat and even a lion during the same 7 mo period. not bad for these camera- they will take up to a 32 gb card -- what a deal

areas like anthem - cavecreek and new river have all kinds of deer in and around houses

figured it was a bug- lol it was kinda cool the way it turned out though - just one of those - wow that's weird pics the slim looking neck isn't what you find in grasshoppers - never really seen many praying mantis around but that was my first thoughts but the glowing eyes up front !?

5.5x7x2 - just google Moultrie A-5 they were in my price range - new -2 yr warranty -free shipping work great not a bunch of fancy features but a great little camera

another problem with crap cluttering hunting spots - chances are it may not even be his best spot-or first choice - its his backup plan this has happened more than once - I know for a fact- a guys stand and camera location - knew he was drawn so I gave him some "room" to hunt, here i find him 2 miles away opening day - we chat - oh -- he planned on hunting that area the next weekend. we can go on and on about this topic - we well never all agree we all want to hunt where we want and when we want but lets just all try to respect the first come first serve attitude! some -exceptions to people who claim jump spots that they were suppose to RESPECT- but that's the chance ya take when you show someone your spot-- but it would p.o. anyone

kinda what I was wondering - why they are wasting time and resources calling people with invalid cards - when they state the application will be rejected

this is my niece - no reason to this crime and no way of knowing the motive for violence against a military family http://www.pacificnewscenter.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=33479%3Awoman-bound-gagged-and-beaten-during-early-morning-robbery-on-nimitz-hill&catid=45%3Aguam-news&Itemid=156 any prayers greatly appreciated !! thanks it states 2 men - the one was her husband who found her!

huntjunkie - not to say it didn't happen but was it the same card they took the $13 application fee from - wouldn't of it have had a wrong number too??

Made in the USA. these retail for $170- I'm asking 80 firm look to be tried on once - as new - see pictures anyone who knows cowboy boots knows Tony Lama there's gotta be somebody who needs these at a great price call 602-993-2657

i'll donate $5 to cwt - these are just what most hunters will need for those trips into nasty catclaw country

these are in good shape - just a cabels tag - no size stated measure 15 in across at waist band - inseam is 34 and over all length is 45 so I'm guessing 28x34 no rips / holes with minor water blemish on inside white pockets and by the zipper they are the heavy duct canvas type material up to the knees for great protection for your lower legs while hunting/ hiking askin $35 obo Gary 602-993-2657 or send pm

the product I'm talking about almost looks like spaghetti- they even have some other stuff that's in all colors red - yellow -greens fluorescent etc --- they are only about 2-3 in long but they do work just drifted along

It's been a few yrs and I mostly fished from shore but the fake crawlers in a jar like power bait were great - just used a split shot and little gold treble hook or salmon egg hook - caught some nice fish

I've always respected others property in our NF . back to the original topic just because there is a stand left it a tree/ camera - it doesn't mean squat to me how long its been there - if I see a deer-elk- turkey whatever that I want to harvest or sign that proves a shooter is around the area - I 'll hunt it if I'm there and he isn't - If I'm there first --- he's the one who has to be understanding about first come first serve - doesn't matter if I'm there for the first time and he's been hunting there for 10 fn yrs. I'm hunting public land the same as him - period if you leave it in the woods - NF and even G&F will take it legally- thats the law - period I know where thers stands that have been there for 10+ yrs - its a great spot - if I draw you can bet I'll be hunting there - screw the attitude that stands / cameras left out to " make you think the spot belongs to someone else ! heck I've had razors drive right by me - 4 people on board - I'm walking 3/4 mile to "my " spot on a dead end 1 mile trail - they even stopped and we talked and I told them I had plans of hunting this area just ahead - they said good luck and drove right past me - parked right on the ridge I normally hunt basically scaring everything out of the area . not much I could do, but waste a day and try another time and hope they didn't see anything to want to make them come back. a tree stand and a camera doesn't give anybody the - this is my spot - you need to go find your own - that's B. S. to me
