+1 for this he helped me with a deer hide super nice and called to let me know what was happening

First elk I killed was about that size, had a cow tag and was walking through some pinyon juniper when it stood up about 100 yards away. Well one shot from a .270 flipped it over… then mama stood up. Really good eating though

Just got back from a week at Alamo, kids had fall break and love it there. First couple days were hot but it cooled off pretty good midweek. Had a good buzzbait bite early first couple days, after that it was mostly Texas rigs with brush hogs and lizards. We caught between 15 and 30 per day amongst the three of us that fished. Good times. Also saw this buck one morning he was probably 125 yards away and this was the best pic I got of him. Sorry pic of deer is sideways.

^^^ This is Cholla ramp at Alamo lake. The lake was just at the turn around area at the top of the ramp when we got there last Saturday. These were taken 3/16/23 and the lake has come up 18”-24” since.

Haha we have a week and it’s supposed to be pretty stable weather for the next two weeks. Worst case I’ll just dropshot up towards the dam… kinda hate that option but we’ll do what we have to

Love this! However, I’m headed to Alamo in a week for a week and not really thinking the bite will be any good. Oh well the kids will be off their electronics and I’m pretty sure they would choose the lake over a theme park any day of the week.

I stepped over one on the backside of Roosevelt when I was about 12 quail hunting with my dad it started buzzing and that sound haunted me for months. Still have its skin around here somewhere. The two that have given me nightmares were with each of my kids. We were hiking the Glassford hill trail three years ago and my daughter just 8 at the time got about 20 feet in front of us. The tumbleweeds were pretty thick and the trail was overgrown. About a minute later she screamed and came running back she almost stepped on a black tailed rattlesnake. We watched it slither away it was about 4 feet long. Last October we were at Alamo lake and the kids wanted to stop at the shore and swim. We have a little cove that we have done this in for years and never had any problems. After the kids swam we were looking for lost crankbaits and my son luckily saw a rattlesnake about 6 inches from his foot in 8 inch tall grass. The snake never rattled and we got lucky he didn’t get bit way out there. Still have nightmares about it.

Alvarez tires in Prescott Valley. They are the best. I know they are probably off the map but they are awesome!

Cool thanks guys, I was a little worried about getting it wet didn’t want the leather to get hard

Just got my hair on mule deer hide back from the tannery, it came back in a box and its a little lumpy and he hair doesn’t want to sit right. I’m not sure what the best way make this look better. Just time out of the box? Is there a better way to orient the hair? Right now looks like a cat that got petted backwards…

Used to catch a bunch when I lived up there just threw a 3” chartreuse Berkely power grub on a quarter ounce jig head. Swam it close to the bottom like a crankbait. Points, flats with stumps, cuts/coves all were good. And yes very good eating

Awesome congrats! Way to stick with it!

Hey man that was a tough hunt, I think I talked with your kids on Sunday morning at Jacob lake and if they were, awesome kids. We were seeing 40-50 does a day Wednesday-Friday all up high. Only saw 2 spikes and a forky on Friday morning and tons of does. Ran into a small 4x on Friday night on telephone hill and hunt was done. Hope you guys get it done.
