We took the kids to this camp last year. The people, food and training/seminars are terrific!!! The mentors that take the kids out in the field are amazing!!! If you predator hunt, want to predator hunt or have kids that want to learn you should not pass this opportunity up!

We will be coming in from Payson to the Gilbert/Chandler area then to over by the 10 & 17 junction. We will be there from midday to early afternoon.

Deer, elk, javelina, bear, turkey, beef, pork, goat, ect. Call or text 928-238-0094

Bringing this back up to the top. I wanted to thank everyone for the meat donations, the dogs have been enjoying it all! I will be in the Valley this Thursday and will be willing to meet with anyone who may have some freezer clean outs. Message me on here or call/text me at 928-238-0094. Heather WHT

Stone is a two year old, intact male with a harsh, dense, flat lying coat. He has passed his VJP 67 and his HZP 180. He has been hunted over upland birds and waterfowl in Utah and furred game (raccoon and lion) here in AZ. I haven't worked him on birds and was told by his previous owner that he is slow to establish point and bumps birds. He has a very strong desire for game contact and loves to hunt and retrieve. He is a good retriever has a good nose. He has a big range and will search a 200 yard radius for game. He loves the water and will break ice to retrieve. Stone will only be sold to someone who will hunt him regularly and exercise him daily. Stone is high energy/intensity and lives to hunt. He is trained to road from a vehicle or from horseback. He is crate trained and travels well. He is easy to call off a tree and is tone recall trained. He also knows Sit, Come, Wait, & Kennel. While Stone is friendly and good around people he has some dog aggression with male dogs which is why we need to sell him. I feel Stone would be best suited to hunting furred game, he will hunt squirrel, rabbits, fox, badger, bobcat, coyote, lion and probably bear, also he is a good waterfowl dog, just needs some work in the blind. You will need to be careful because he will also make short work of domestic cats. Stone is an outside dog. He's allowed into my shop when I'm working, and he's never urinated there. I think he would be ok inside, but I can't say definitively. I'm sure he could be housebroken. All vaccinations are current. $1200 negotiable.

We also use the hotel option. There are a couple perks for us besides the fact we don't live in the valley. We stay at the Country Inn Suites, and use the 'park and fly' option. Get to the hotel, let the kids swim in the pool, have a nice dinner somewhere close, let the kids swim again. Now you have tired out kids that will sleep like rocks and when you get up in the morning you hop on the free shuttle to the airport. They drop you right at your terminal and pick you up when you get back.

8ohunt247 We are located in Young, Az. That is why Shedhunteraz and Bonecollector have offered to meet with anyone donating meat in the Valley and bring it up with them when they are up this way. We really appreciate the responses we have been getting and so do the dogs!!!

We maybe making a trip over to the Prescott area early this week if anyone over there has any meat they want to get rid of, we can pick it up.

AverageJoe those fuzzy dogs are Drahthaars and yes we run them with the hounds. Versatile working dogs, upland bird(pointer), waterfowl, furred game from squirrel to lion, and also blood track.

Just thought you may want to see a couple of pictures of the dogs......... Clyde, Timber and Bonnie Stone Clyde Karma Kaos Stone, Timber and Clyde

Thanks everybody! If you can't meet up with Kevin pm me your phone # and i'll let you know when we are coming to the valley. We feed this diet year round so feel free to continue to contact me when you have meat you would otherwise throw out.

Bonecollector is right we feed it to our dogs. I hate to see it go to waste, and when fed in the right ratios along with organ meat and some other stuff it is a very healthy diet for the dogs.

Can't use the chorizo, the meat needs to be unseasoned. If the wild hog is unseasoned that would be awesome. Pm me your phone # and i'll call you when we are in Tucson.

I will be in the Tucson area on the 19th if you can hold it till then.

This piece includes 2 Steinbok, a Common Duiker and 2 Red Duikers. The two Steinbok and the Common Duiker were mounted by another taxidermist and were all on separate small bases. The customer wanted them combined, with the two new Red Duiker that we mounted, all in one large corner wall habitat. This is what we came up with. Couple close ups of the Red Duikers we mounted.

I belive it started out as the smaller Mtn lion form from Research. I did alot of alterations to it.

We mounted this NM Coues buck and Lion Pedestal for "elkman", here is the link for the story on his coues hunt. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/37607-elkmans-nm-coues-hunt/ Congratulations Josh on some great trophies!!!!

After waiting 7yrs for a December Coues tag, and watching my husband draw it twice!! I was excited to finally..... hopefully....... put my tag on a good buck, I had my hopes set on a 115 or better. This hunt was tough...the first 3 days out we saw 0 deer, none, zip....and this was in areas we have always found deer in the past. We waited out the weather for a few days and tried again in a new area, we had some glassing help for the day so dropped off Kevin Lawhorn to check out one area and Dale and I headed a short distance away. Dale and I had just got to our glassing point when the radio went off...It was Kevin "Hey I have 3 bucks over here, but I fell and hurt my knee" I radioed back and said "Are you OK?" He said "I can't really move, I think I broke my kneecap, but I have 3 bucks chasing does all over, one of them looks pretty good." So Dale and I packed up and headed over to Kevin, after I took a minute to determine if he had broken anything(he didn't, me being a paramedic has it's advantages) we checked out the bucks. Dale and I deemed the biggest of the 3 to be a 105 class deer and decided to pass as there were many days left in this 3 week hunt. Although, I kept hearing a friend Garretts words echoing in my ear "Don't pass a deer that you would be happy with on the last day" I hoped I had made the right decision to pass that buck. We went out a few more times, not really seeing much then ran into the holidays, thankfully the Grandparents agreed to keep the kids till New Years so we could really hit the hills hard the last week of the hunt. I texted Gino (CouesnSheep) and asked him if he had time and was willing to come hunt with us and he said sure! He asked how far I could shoot and I told him I had never shot anything over 150 yrds before. He said he had access to a long range rife for a few days if I was interested. I said I was willing to do whatever it took to get a big buck! So out we went, We froze our a$$es off for days we had to build a fire one day to keep warm enough to keep glassing. (Dale even caught his pant leg on fire trying to keep warm). But the cold weather seemed to finally get the deer in our area moving around. Gino glassed a decent buck up on the 27th and I decided I would try to shoot him. Gino got the gun set up while Dale and I tried to keep the buck in sight. Gino told me to get behind the gun and see if I had a good solid rest, well I just could not seem to get in position!!!! Dale looked over and told Gino "She shoots left handed she can't shoot from there" so he moved the gun but in the process we lost track of the buck. If the buck had offered a shot opportunity it would have been a 677 yrd shot. We continued to glass the area for an hour or so then decided to back out and come in from another angle that evening to see if we could locate the buck again. It didn't work out that evening either and so the hunt continued. On the 28th we went back into the same area but only found 2 smaller bucks. The long range rifle that Gino had use of had to go out with another hunter, Kevin Lawhorn came through again meeting us at the top of the Young Rd the night of the 28th to loan us his long range gun! On the 29th Gino and I headed into a new area (Dale stayed home to get some work done in the shop) it was a pretty active morning we saw lots of deer, just nothing over 85, I was tempted by one buck but Gino wouldn't let me shoot. The morning of the 30th was to be my last day, we had a storm coming in and I was ready to settle for any mature buck, rather than the dreaded "Tag Soup" We split up again with Gino being the "big eyes" over a mile away and Dale and I glassing an area and then moving to another to try and cover more country. Gino radioed us a said he had a couple small bucks in an area we had glassed yesterday so we moved down there to have a look. Gino said the bucks weren't really moving around and he felt there had to be a bigger buck with a doe in the area. When we got to where we could see the hillside he was glassing we spotted one of the bucks lower on the hill, I told Dale that Gino said the smaller one was up higher so we looked up and saw a buck. Dale said are you sure the smaller buck was higher up, I said yeah, he said "I think you need to take a look at this buck"....I looked through the spotting scope and could only make out the main beams on the buck, but he looked pretty good compared to the other buck on the hill. He said do you want to try for him? I said yes. We radioed Gino and he found the buck and kept his eyes on it while we worked our way closer, using the terrain and trees to conceal our approach. We worked our way in from 1200 yrds to about 610 yrds when we ran out of cover and had to set up where we were. I had some trouble keeping the buck in the scope when I would dial it in to 25 power, and the buck took his sweet time giving me a good shot opportunity, but finally he turned and I fired at 607 yards, I hit low just under his feet and got set up again, the buck hadn't moved and I fired again. Long story short.... Thanks to an enduring Husband, a couple of good friends, a borrowed rifle, and some stubborn determination I finally got my buck.....he wasn't 115 or better but he did score 113 7/8" and I couldn't be happier!!!

Couestracker, if you look close at the pictures you will see that the lower teeth are crooked and overlap, the upper teeth were even more messed up. If you follow the facebook link there are pictures of the upper teeth, the front incisors actually criscross each other.

We will always take any old or unwanted meat for our dogs. Deer,elk, javelina, turkey, bear, mtn lion, goat ect...

Don, I sent you a PM. Heather

Been a while since we posted any work on here, so here aresome of the mounts we have sent home recently.... First the kids...these 4 bucks all all youth deer. Nice Desert Mulie... Archery Bull finished up.... And a nice Pronghorn done for a Coueswhitetail member.....

You can still have a mount done, most taxidermist will have or can get a cape for you. If you took field photos of your bull, the taxidermist should be able to try and match the colors of your bulls cape and use the pictures while mounting to create any features that made your bull unique. Talk to a couple taxidermists and look at thier work to find one you like, let them help you make a decision.

Wondering what to do with one of those coyotes you called in??? Check out this Coyote pedestal mount.

We have a friend with a bull down in 22 and he could use some help getting it packed out.
