Wind was rough all weekend in 23. We got on one vocal Tom but couldn’t get him away from his hens to come into range. Most people we talked to were having a similar experience. One family did manage to road bomb one in canyon creek.

Unless you care about wheel base or belts. I will agree that for seating 4 or more adults the crew is more comfortable. There are a number of other considerations for someone buying new or otherwise. OP should weigh them all.

We use our backseats without issues. For hunting 3 up front works fine. We did 40+ miles one day, no big deal.

Easy transaction. Thanks Greg!

Awesome setup. Pro master is legit, that’s a great price on it.

Well in that case... buy the permit.

I wouldn’t bother. It’s just money you don’t have to spend.

$150 for everything?

I’d call Oz to do it. That copper work looks really nice. This used to be my everyday. That’s quality work.

Maybe AZKiller could use it to get the stick removed from his prostate. 😳😁

My kid used one on his mule deer hunt this year. Worked good.

Location?

We got ours, plus an extra stuck to the back of the envelope. That’s the second time that has happened. So if Enrique Abberanigurrez (or something like that) from Somerton is on here, your tag is in the mail. That is the second time that has happened. Ironically the last time it was for a member on the site and someone I have known for many years. I hand delivered it and it was fun to laugh about the irony.

I’ve never been and I think it’s hilarious. Don’t mind AZKiller, he’s still mad that Hillary didn’t get elected.

Good heck what has happened here??? There are some things you just can’t un-see.

Welcome to the site!

I want to go mearns hunting

TJ!!! Great to see you here my friend. With the exploding population of the state I am convinced opportunity is headed for the toilet.

Looks like they had A3 score that bull.

If only 50% of the NR’s were hunting archery deer that would put us back at 2017 levels.

Did you see what happened when they tried to simply update their portal? 🤦‍♂️🤣🤦‍♂️🤣

Agree 100%. I was just noting that the solutions that can be employed must align with the current guidelines and that we should also be aware that a new guideline process will be starting probably next year.

AZGFD is one of the VERY few agencies that does surveys and adjusts tag allocations every year (or every other year now). This is a huge undertaking and is extremely active management for western big game. We are pretty fortunate that our management agency puts forth this kind of effort into developing tag numbers. Keep in mind, you can voice your opinion as much as you want right now, but these adjustments all align with the hunt guidelines which are established every five years. Although they are taking comments, they are limited in what they have to do based on those guidelines and will not work outside of them. I believe the current guidelines were established in 2018. So in 2 years there will be a public comment period on new guidelines which is where most of the changes being suggested here and elsewhere would need to occur. https://www.azgfd.com/hunting/guidelines/

Yeah from that pic I couldn’t tell you if that bull was 449 or 349. I am surprised we haven’t heard more about this. Also, this article doesn’t bode well for AZ as it doesn’t seem to support the theory that trail cams don’t help kill elk.

Huge props to you Sean. If you wrote names and phone # on every one of those tickets then you earned some kind of equity in this thing!
