I think those guys used the term "feral" not "wild" to legalize it. Lee I will PM you a couple of spots to check out where I have been watching a couple of bucks.

SWEET!! I still have a chance at my sheep tag and deer for that matter.

I think BP has taken away the low end for the most part. Pretty average mules not even armed.

my card has not been hit, so I still have a chance.

I was looking for a couple of bulls I chased last season during a limited opportunity hunt. I could not find them but their sure is a lot of elk in the limited opportunity area. Angry Cow calves Spikes

With all of the pictures I posted the broadhead went through the vitals with the exception of the elk. -
mechanical broadheads success and failures
idgaf replied to creed_az_88's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
Here are some of the animals I have taken with mechanicals over the last few years. They were shot from 10 yards to 45 yards with my Matthews Monster and a gold tip series 22 ultralight arrow. The broadheads were tekken 2 blade, rage 2 and 3 blade 100 grain. The broadheads I did not like both mechanical and fixed were the NAP Spitfire and the Muzzy four blade. The broadheads I use now are the 2 and 3 blade rage depending on the mood when I leave the house. Some of the pictures are graphic (bare with me I am suffering insomnia) 10 yards tekken rage 3 blade 15 yards rage 3 blade 15 yards rage 3 blade (long story but shot 5 times, not the broadheads fault,operator error) 18 yards Rage 2 blade 45 yards Not pictured a couple more turkeys (assorted broadheads), my 2012 coues(rage 3 blade), 2010ish bear(tekken 3 blade), and 2010 fixed blade muley(muzzy 3 blade fixed) Antelope (tekken 2 blade) -
Hey now, there is some talent at Pete's. The last time I was there, there was four girls there. Three were from the valley and one was a local gal. All very hot in there own right. The local was supporting her young son. Two were putting themselves through school and my personal favorite liked money and liked to travel so she worked as a dancer. Its surprisingly easy to talk to naked women after a few gentlemen jacks.

I would never want to impede on your rights to go anywhere in this great country, but by that same respect I would like you to value my rights, property, livelihood, and most importantly my family by not starting a fire and causing me and many people like you and me to evacuate because of fire. Whether a fire is caused by accident or purpose, naturally or by stupidity the effects last several lifetimes and will directly effect tens of thousands of people both short term and for many years to come. There is a reason to close the forest not to keep you out, but to keep people in their homes and to keep hundred year old trees at a level more than match sticks. You can always tell when someone has gone through a fire or natural disaster when the emergency broadcast system comes on they listen. I know you would not cause a fire, but their are too many stupid people in the US to discriminate.

Just from my experience. I have hunted the same area in the heart of the wallow fire area since I was young and pretty to now. I have spent nearly everyday of the of the last few general deer seasons and much of the archery seasons chasing game in the wallow area and have not seen the numbers from 2011 and earlier for whatever reason. 3c is my home unit now and this was my first choice for deer this year on a gut feeling and there are still great deer in the unit, but it is my belief that the numbers are significantly down. That being said I took my largest archery deer in 3c in 2010 and because of the wallow fire I took my largest rifle deer in 2011 in 1 (you can see a long ways just after a fire). Here are the current permits issued and the ones issues in 2009 2009 deer permits Hunt No. Season Dates Notes Open Areas Legal Wildlife Permits 1000 BONUS POINT ONLY — See page 17 (No other hunt number may be chosen in conjunction with this one). 1001 Oct 23 - Nov 1, 2009 1 Any antlered deer 260 1002 Oct 30 - Nov 8, 2009 2A, 2B, and 2C Any antlered deer 80 1003 Oct 30 - Nov 8, 2009 (26) 3A and 3C Any antlered deer 300 Hunt no.

I feel very comfortable in saying that deer hunting has gotten worse from before the wallow fire to now in unit 1. I also believe that elk and deer for what ever reason is less now in 3c than its hay day ten years ago from the rodeo fire.
-
Yeah like this area from the wallow fire.

From my office window in Lakeside 1100 ish 1 ish 3ish From a source I trust it was along/by the 96 road.

I took a couple of valley urbanites fishing today, so I took the opportunity to visit a few friends. Some will be shooters real fast. Enjoy. I did not see the predator until I downloaded the pics. Coyote or Wolf?
-
Yeah and Shane Koury is in a cow elk suit off to the side. A few more pics
-
You see if we go to look at elk we wont see a thing, but the fishing will be good/great. Yesterday the fishing was poor. Here are a few more pics

Big time congrats on the bear. I enjoy your passion for predators.

Buffalo Hunting in Grand Canyon National Park
idgaf replied to CouesWhitetail's topic in Buffalo Hunting
I don't think Harry Reid will be an issue for the Sportsmen's bill amendment. If I remember correctly he sponsored it when USO was causing all that grief. The Sierra Club has actually polluted and desecrated the portion of AZ that I travel. The Salt River rest area was closed by threat of lawsuit from them because they said it was to close to the river. This rest area was/is as eco-friendly as any place in the world with solar lighting and a Swedish septic system. Now because of the threat of a law suit by the Sierra Club go to any pull out on either side of the Canyon and check out the filth and human waste. Looking at that you can honestly say the Sierra Club is not for the environment. -
A four day back pack hunt in 27 with my pack mules, um I mean brother and nephew.

Buffalo Hunting in Grand Canyon National Park
idgaf replied to CouesWhitetail's topic in Buffalo Hunting
I love the hypocrisy of this statement in the article for the sierra club. Last time I checked McCain was a public elected official representing the best interest of the US and in particular the residents of Arizona. "The Arizona Game and Fish Commission voted Friday to support the amendment. Meanwhile, the Sierra Club criticized McCain for interfering in a public process." -
Your Correct its the Salt River Canyon. My overlords, um bosses, have no concept of distance or time when they send me somewhere. I do like Globe though. There is nothing like breakfast at La Luz, Lunch at El Charro, and Coffee from La Vida with my overlords, um bosses, paying for it.

Nothing extraordinary just a way to pass some time. Sunset in the marsh more ducks Cedar scouting Limited Opportunity opportunity Lope My ride home from work

Isn't that the way David Carradine Died?

One of the people I work with went with her sister to the ranch apparently they have three pieces of property. They hunted the middle section which is between eastbound and westbound I40. They had fun bowhunting and took a texas dall and an mouflan I think.

if you have the spring archery bear tag, you had better hurry up!
idgaf replied to AZLance's topic in Black Bear or Grizzly Bear hunts
Well then, following your logic, we should ban all firefighters and Native Americans from the forest since it was a Indian firefighter who started the Rodeo fire, which merged with the Chediski fire to become AZ's largest fire. Well actually following your blanket statement logic they can't stay. Following my logic of "if you dont like it do something about it" they can stay The native that started the fire actually spent measurable time in jail as opposed to the others . Eight years if I remember correctly. Furthermore, WMAT has done an incredible job cleaning there side of the fence simply because it had to be done without fanfare. The Wallow is larger than Rodeo Chediski, but one thing is certain they both sucked.
