  1. Sorry for delay, Correct Dale the creator of the GraveDigger Broadhead and Owner of Evolution Outdoors, the Hyde and Jekel Broadheads. Custom built 30 or so of these for hunters to expand their access.  CHA raffled off two of them in the past year and a half. You're welcome to check it out if you are in the Cabela's area.

  2. I have the following ebike that I bought and is about a year old. It is an incredible bike, but with my daughter's wedding, selling a few items. This was a raffle in the past, but the meme shows what the Bike is.  3K or best offer, located in Glendale.

    Ok, I guess Matt schimberg who runs A3 on the strip was lying when he said that. 

     

    I guess if everyone can just show up 3 days before the hunt and glass a little and know what every deer is doing then we never really needed cameras to help in the first place so everything should be fine now. I'll also call bullshi* that you hunted "numerous" water sources without a camera on it. Unless you hunted 15+ years ago. . .  Or you've never actually hunted the strip.

    Never know with A3- but they continually have customers with the Commissioner tags that pay AZGFD hundreds of thousands of dollars- Maybe A3 bragging is correct on the 300 cameras to locate the shooter.  But the biggest Bull or Mule deer is promoted by the department in the name of receiving huge $$$.  Don't worry those cameras will still be out as new "outdoor enthusiast wildlife watchers" will now own them and share where those Commissioner tag shooters may live..... in the black market......  

    Nope- I had 3 tanks all to myself on the strip without a camera and not even close to 15 years ago.   But then again I was happy with a 170 class buck with my bow- maybe they pulled them as the strip standard was not there?  

    Do you really think hunters who do their homework before season cannot pattern a pronghorn, mule deer, coues, elk or javelina from watching them from a distance with a tripod and 15 power binos and be set up on opening morning and harvest them with a few days scouting before opening day?  Have you really hunted Arizona or are you a new tag holder without much success as I call Bullsh** on your true hunting capabilities.... But I did get a message- you are a new member and employed by the AZGFD- True?
