That's worse than my first gut-shot javelina!

I usually do it for the fun and just trying to find them. I've never found enough in a season so warrant selling any. This year, I have a couple of projects that need funding, so I may go the fun the route JSR describes. Keep big/cool ones and sell others (assuming I can find enough). If anyone needs a partner, I'm always willing and good with keeping secrets!

One more bump for our banquet this weekend! Lots of great stuff to be given away, including more guns than we originally anticipated!
-
That will suck if its still there unwrapped by the time the birthday party rolls around! By the way, we lost, but Syd played a great game at goalie. Some amazing saves, but also some bad break hops off rebounds, etc.

Our 8-year old son has hit the point of being at the upper limits of draw length and poundage for his bow. Its a Diamond Nuclear Ice. Poundage range is 10-29 lbs and draw length range is 14-24". It has a new string that hasn't had more than 2 dozen arrows shot off of it. The package sight it came with broke, so we upgraded and put an Axion 3-pin sight. Also includes Tarantula youth soft case, youth caliper release, wrist sling, and 12 Warrior 500 spine arrows (5 at about 17.5" and 7 at about 15.5"). I forgot to write down exact arrow measurements, but can get you specific measurements if you want. Bow has been very well cared for, never dry fired, and always shot under adult supervision. $150 takes everything home. I won't be down in the Valley again until Feb 20-21 (Reach 11 Complex). Can possibly meet halfway on a weekend if I have time and weather permits. Willing to ship, but buyer pays shipping.

SOLD! Always a pleasure, Mike!

Congrats! I'm still waiting for the stars to align and get my daughter out and on javelina!

If you need some company, let me know. I'm in Flag and always looking to get out. I promised my daughter we'd work hard to get her on her first shed this year, too.

I wish we could be there, guys! Good luck!!! -
Please tell me there's video. I was thinking the same thing!

Handheld nail gun doesn't count for the HAM hunt!

I'd have to look at the exact units, but over by Reserve and Glenwood in the Gila NF has always been good to me. Grants area has always interested me because its so easy to get to from Flagstaff.

NEW ........ARIZONA DEER ASSOCIATION RAFFLE..WINNER POSTED....
IA Born replied to azelkhunter2's topic in The Campfire
Just noticed the difference. Sorry about that. Too many irons in the fire. Got ADA raffle tickets, but missed the AES raffle. Thanks! -
I love Silver Creek and really need to get back there. Unfortunately, that's not an easy day trip from Flagstaff, especially with the limited time we now have that day. Thanks for reminding me of Silver Creek!

This is going to sound crazy, but we've lived in Flagstaff for just over 8 years and, as much as I love fly fishing, I've never fished The Ferry. We've driven down to the boat ramp as a family once to look around on our way to the north rim, but I've never fished there. Ok, now that I've been ostracized, I'm thinking of taking my daughter up there next Friday, February 12 for some fly fishing. We both have the day off from work/school and are looking for something fun to do. The original plan was some rabbit hunting, but then I thought about The Ferry and how we could get up early, drive up there, and fish the walk-in areas for a 3-4 hours and then boogie back home. With that, I have several questions. 1) Is it even worth it this time of year? Will there be any hatches or good wet bites? 2) What areas are good for me and her to wade in a bit. In reference from the boat ramp/Paria River crossing landmarks I'm familiar with. 3) What patterns beyond the typical midge/pheasant tail/bead heads, etc. that I have should I get, assuming that the answer to number 1 is yes? I promise I won't share any honey holes! Thanks!

Saw in your other post that they are sold out. When is the drawing? -
My buddies back home have me thinking about a Rhino blind now, too!
-
Thanks for all of the input, guys, especially those of you who pm'd me! My wife gently reminded me that we are leaving very early that Saturday morning for a 3-day weekend and being gone all day Friday wouldn't be prudent. We've also started discussions for getting our own boat. The Ferry will have to wait for now, but I plan to hit it this summer one way or another!

SOLD OUT ***Thank You ***Raffle*** Arizona Elk Society Raffle - Swarovski HD Binoculars
IA Born replied to n2horns's topic in The Campfire
Just bought the winning ticket, plus two more for good measure! -
Thanks, buddy! I'll run it by my daughter and see what she wants to do. Thanks, all!
-
That's good to know. I guess I thought people still fly fished the walk in area. We have spinning gear, but my fly rod is calling and she's eager to break hers in. Good stuff to think about! Thanks!

With all of the soccer expenses of late, taxidermy bill, and upcoming fundraising banquet, hiring a guide isn't an option right now. Thanks.

That's absolutely awesome, Tim! I've looked at old pics when I go back home and it floods me with all kinds of memories! Those pics always remind me why I do what I do, both personally and professionally, and drives me to have those same memories with and for my kids! Next time I'm back in Iowa, I may have to grab a photo album or two. You'll laugh your butt off at that goofy-looking kid!
