SD - Just let the guy be. If he wanted to post the scores he would have done so. And I for one am grateful that people have started taking pictures of the animals, and not the hunters. I don't look at these forums to look at pictures of sunburned dudes with 4 day beards and women with no makeup. I want to see the critters, so I am glad that the hunter is in the background and not the subject. And its refreshing to see some pics in different poses and positions that show the animals better. Keep posting the pics Lance, you guys are doing some things right up there.

I have had the same guy ruin probably a dozen of my hunts. Sneezing in the middle of stalks, getting the wind wrong, walking loud, missing shots. If anybody sees a 30 yr old fat dude in a white F150 give him a piece of my mind . . . he looks just like the dude in my avatar.

Be ware that the more well known trails in the wilderness do attract some attention. Horse guys usually pack into reavis ranch and camp. I have had success using the trails to get into the country and then going cross country somewhere on the interior.

Fridge if not spoken for.

Gilbert High used to offer a meat processing service as well, but you pretty much had to know Mr. B to get it in there cause they booked up quick.

Are you looking for an official measurer, or just someone to put a tape on it and do the math?

Please tell me you killed that buck, with that bow, and not a single ounce of camo?! Love it.

Got your post crossed up with the one above. maybe I will shoot my carp deer with it this year. I shot my first two elk with it when I was a kid, which was cool cause grandpa bought it right after the war for elk hunting. He never shot an elk with it so I was happy to fulfill its purpose. Maybe shooting another mule deer like all the ones he killed in ID would be fitting. 4Falls - Thanks for posting this, it got my mind thinking.

Casey - Who re-barreled yours? My first rifle is a 721 in .270 that my Grandfather handed down to me. He passed away last year and I have been thinking I need to do something with it to memorialize him this season.

Lv2hunt has a 40B tag as well.

If the sale falls through for some reason let me know.

Bag limit is one deer per calendar year. You don't have to turn the tag in or anything, you just can't use it. Good luck and enjoy the time with your old man. Mine quit hunting about 3 years ago and its been hard for me to come to terms with.

I have hunted this unit regularly since the early 2000's. Here is all you need to know. The south side of the unit gets pounded by archery hunters and in some areas atv's etc. If you just drive around to the north side of the unit and access off of the apache trail, there are a fraction of the number of hunters and a lot more deer. The south side holds plenty of deer but once the lead and arrows start flying it can be tough to keep track of the bucks. Especially with the limited number of access points to the rugged country, its definitely worth driving around the other side. Good luck and post up some pics when she puts the hurt on a giant!

Love the devil tines on that bull. Color me jealous.

Happy Birfday dude.

Guess I will be hunting desert carp this year. The first time I have a muley tag in AZ since 2005. Shouldn't be too hard to find one of those big dopes standing under some greasewoods Antmo - maybe we will see you out there, my buddy drew the first hunt also. I will probably go drag him around the first couple of days.

Congrats again Tom! Can't wait to hear all of your updates. Good luck.

If you want a high end LH bow go into any bowshop in town and they can take care of you. And the PSE X-Force is as good a bow as you will find.

My old man grew up in the town of Mammoth inside Yellowstone National Park. As a kid he and his brothers got a rope around a bear and tied it to a tree in town. Another kid in town took the heat for it since the rope belonged to him. They didn't fess up to Grandpa until just a couple years back.

I shot my first elk with a bow in 3C on a cow hunt. I used to just listen for bugles and then try to circle in front of the herd as they moved to/from water or bedding areas. If you can find them on the move its a lot esier to let them come to you than it is to sneak in.

Well I guess I am a sally cause there ain't no way in heck I am packing out a whole or even gutted coues deer from the places where we find those little buggers. I skin, quarter and bone them. I leave the hide on the head and let my taxi take care of that, cause I hate doing it. I can't remember the last animal that we were able to pack out whole.

We sat on the top of Porter Mt. with G&F and had radio communication between myself, my dad, and my little brother while he stalked and shot his first bull elk several years ago. I know that what G&F participates in does not necessarily mean that something is legal, especially in 3B

Just put one in the bulk trash last month. Sorry dude.

I worked up the desert sheep draw odds for Lv2hnt, so if anyone would like a little info before turning in their app feel free to give me a shout. For all those new to the game, if you have less than 10 points your odds are 0 to <1% regardless of unit.

Well I am an estimator for a large General Contractor and that's pretty sweet, but it doesn't take me to MT. My family hails from those parts so we always go up for a week during the summer. We attend church with my Grandpa there and have since we were kids. I said goodbye to my Grandma and my cousin in that little white chapel and I feel as home there as I do anywhere on Earth.
