Very nice pictures from all.

Josh, if you don't mind me asking, what was the inside spread?

Josh, are you sure?

I cant speak for Josh or Andy but if that was something that happened to me,

Did someone ask if someone actually had an X-force, shot one and knew what they are talking about? I think we all went through this once before... I had a 2007 bowtech allegiance. I had a 2007 hoyt vectrix. I had a Matthews. I have owned many bows in the last 30 years. I have an X-force now. It is the best bow I have ever shot. It is as shock free as any bow out there. It is quieter than any bow out there. It is faster than any bow out there. It has the best warranty of any bow out there. If you have a 29" draw length or shorter get the 6" brace height bow because it is as forgiving as any bow out there. If you haven't owned one then you are just one of the unfortunate ones that talk sideways out your pie hole about something you know nothing about:) I am so glad Bownut does not own one. Like he said, it will never happen for him.

Absolutely remarkable Josh and Andy!!! Holy mackerel der Andy, how do you keep getting in all these pictures? I feel honored to have known you both before you were famous. I just want you both to know you can come hunting with me any time for no charge. All kidding aside that is a fantastic buck of a lifetime with a bow Josh. Looks like it will fit in any book.

Way too much information in the article. Obviously the first picture was taken by someone who has no clue how to work a camera. Seriously I think it is important for all of us hunters not to quit hunting these areas out of fear. I think one of the best things that could happen is that hunters go hunt down there as we have for many years.

Nice buck Chris Congrats

AZHWC, You had your chance once. What happens on Raymond stays on Raymond.

Kevin, No worries, I talked with 3 foot Fred today and he said I was a sorry cotton picken complainer. He may be right about one of the three. He said it was a win-win for everyone.

Have you pulled a bow at 15 degrees? Have you stalked elk in their beds? How many days vacation do you have? Opportunity at it's finest. When you are a retired Commissioner, you think the whole world is retired. If you have never bowhunted, why should anyone else.

Just stirring things up a little I will try to be a good boy now.

The most important consideration in buying a bow is what support you wil be able to get after you buy it. Moral to the story, go with who will give you or how you can get support in your area. After shooting around 30 different bows in the last 30 years, the PSE X-FORCE is the best factory made hunting bow I have ever shot and is the perfect bow for hunting in Arizona. The draw cycle on the cam is a dream come true. The support for the bow in this area is professional and exceptional. I bet if Bownut shot one he would have to be a closet X-FORCE man

I guess I gotta see this since I have never seen pics in an old Playboy.

never under estimate the power of a snickers bar

I seen one once but I can't talk about it. Any mule that's a snickers licker has got to be a good mule and prolly don't need the bat. Did you ever try the snickers with Claymore?

You just cant beat a Snickers bar. I like a little more peanut butter myself. If dogman says a snickers works, I have to agree. If you could only make a baseball bat out of a Snickers bar, would it have helped?

I haven't heard of one Bill but I think I will set up a beer & hot dog stand tomorrow on the 113 road

Josh that is just awesome man!

Bill, That was my first thought but since I have been neutered, I was afraid to say that. Tony, Cat bait would also be my first choice. Archery is legal in some city limits and most counties, Glendale is 39m right? I doubt I can find the rule about that

Thanks Tony, I don't know how you found it. It being attached to another law. I looked for a while and gave up.

I must be mixed up. I thought it did become a statute.

It sure didn't feel like we had won and were protected when approximately 50% of our premium tags went to NR's in 2005. Do you think Taulman would have even began his suit if the 10% cap had of been a statute? If it had of been a statute, would the appeal judge still have ruled the same way? What benefit is it to us now?

There are ways to conduct mandatory reporting that are simple. Some will cost more than others. Many of you are familiar with the way New Mexico does it and if you do not report, you are done hunting. That is a fairly good system. What would it cost for Arizona to do it that way? This type of method only makes people report and does not make them tell the truth. I had this idea a while back that no one I have ever talked to likes: what if each tag had to be surrendered back to the Department with a report after the hunt. If you did not surrender (send) your tag back with a report, used or unused, you are done. When you get your tag, you also receive a return envelope postage paid to return the tag and report after the hunt. This could apply to all species and every weapons group. Not just permits that were drawn and mailed out but also to over the counter tags issued. How much would it cost to know the truth? Who wants to know the truth?
