    2018 HOYT CARBON DEFIANT 34

    Is that a left hand bow or a mirror image pic?

    Out of state pronghorn

    The trophy potential in AZ is far lower than it used to be. If I wasn’t a resident I wouldn’t even bother with an application. There are too many tags, too few goats and it’s hot. Wyoming is about to get rough to draw. It’s likely going to double the amount of bonus points required to draw. Spend the money, go with the sure thing while NM before prices skyrocket.

    Help with Kaibab 101

    Welcome to CWT and congrats on the tag. Where are you from? We’d love to hear more about you and what you might have insights on that you could share as well. Here are a few answers that might be helpful: The biggest pest on the Kaibab are the squirrels (including trucks and motors, be careful) They get into everything. There are tons of coyotes. No bears to speak of. The forest isn’t any more or less risky than any other public lands with the exception that during the hunts it becomes heavily saturated with guides and outfitters and other wannabe dudes. Hunter conflict does occur. Deer can be heavily concentrated in specific areas during the early hunt so you will encounter other people. Apply the golden rule and you’ll be fine. Most of the roads are actually pretty dang good by AZ standards. The rocks can be sharp so have 10 ply tires. You’ll be fine in a tent as long as you aren’t a sissy. Bring a giddy heater and it will help. But more than likely it will be warmer than you prefer. The area is saturated with roads so getting remote can be tough. Beware, there is almost 0 cell service anywhere except Jacob Lake or the East edge of the plateau. The water situation now doesn’t necessarily reflect what it will be in 3 months. If we don’t get anymore moisture water will be critical. There will be lots of tag-alongs with other tag holders. So there will be a lot of people there. But it will be a solid hunt. The deer tend to be concentrated in specific areas, if you aren’t seeing many deer move on. Some of those dense pine forests can be tough to turn up deer in. So don’t spend too long in one place if it’s slow. And be sure to grab some cookies, milkshakes and pie at Jacob Lake. The grand bull sandwich is also a personal favorite. Good luck and keep us posted.

    Kaibab Rifle Hunters

    You’ll probably be up high on that hunt. There are roads every where up there. I have been able to pack every deer we have killed whole to them truck. But we kill dinks

    Rifle hunts in Jan

    I am anxious to see details on this.
  10. If you have the tools to reface them then that wouldn't be a bad option. I probably wouldn't stain them myself but would totally paint them. Option 3 wouldn't be any big deal. They don't have to be custom, you could order modular cabinets and set them yourself.

    Fu*&^%ing ethics

    Yeah, not only was that calf already doomed to die a miserable death, but had you shot its mother it would have just been worse. I’d have a hard time putting an arrow in a spotted calf, but there is no question you spared it some suffering. Nature is metal stuff right there.

    If you could only have one

    It really doesn’t matter how much energy you have if you shoot an animal in the butt or above the vitals. There really isn’t any reason to choose KE over shot placement. This should be a short thread.

    Super Raffle Bull

    All animals that make the book are in the records forever. However only animals above 375” are printed in every version of the book.

    Super Raffle Bull

    The said it was a net B&C bull so at least 360, but not the 400" giants we see sometimes. Between drought and this being a raffle not auction bull I'd say he did pretty well.

    Colorado Bear

    Pretty blonde. My dad makes those same kissy sounds at every animal we see these days. I am not sure why or when that started.

    Is big lake Jake still around?

    Another one?! Dammit.

    Anybody been on the Bab

    Not really. Everyone will still just sit in the same spots they are now. It will be a lot harder for the non-guides dudes to figure out where the buff are without a bunch of other eyes and ears.

    this gets more and more creepy

    He was recovering from intestine surgery he had a week or so prior. He already had complicating health conditions. If you believe the vaccine had something to do with his death you are just searching for ways to reinforce a conclusion you have already drawn.
