    Midway has ammo

    I have an Election Day present arriving from Sportsman’s Guide today. I also saw that last night they had 9mm so next week I will have a little pick me up on the door step.

    If tomorrow goes the way they are projecting you will be yearning for the days of .60/rd

    Don’t hold it in. Hemorrhoids take longer to heal than quad strains.

    It will suck till it doesn’t. For some reason I though that your dad had a sheep tag the same year you did.

    Oversized Cutting Boards

    Routing the edges has been on my to-do list. Those suckers are sharp. Maybe this is a good excuse to hang out.

    New to Turkey

    We can argue exceptions all day. Common sense and draw percentages will tell you that the first hunt is more desirable. All sorts of things may make the reality that the later hunt ends up with better conditions but when selecting a hunt to apply for 6 months before the season, the early hunt is the general consensus as the better bet.

    This is a great day for conservation that should be celebrated instead of litigated. Unfortunately the ESA has been weaponized to advance select agendas. Hopefully this sticks, but I think the eco libs have enough $ to litigate in perpetuity.

    Sounds right. Mine required some decoding as well. $30, $10, $25, $25

    East Desert H2O Hauling

    It seems that maybe you aren’t familiar with how the habitat dollars are used. Each year AZGFD authorizes the sale of 3 special commissioner tags for each species to raise money for the Habitat Partnership Fund. The dollars raised from those have to be used for habitat enhancement which includes water hauling. The HPC fund annually raises about $2.5m. Those funds are available to wildlife organizations for projects. But AZGFD cannot use those dollars for their own projects or personnel. A water hauling project requires a few resources; vehicles, water, trailers, labor, pumps, etc. So when AES or AMDO takes these on, if they can get more of those resources donated the further those dollars go. When you or I can contribute a trailer, truck, fuel, etc and pair that with a coordinated effort from an organization who identifies where the need is (which tanks are empty) and that makes a really successful effort that maximizes the use of those dollars that sportsmen have contributed. To make this work it takes everyone contributing and pulling together. No one organization, department or group can do this alone. Conservation takes everyone doing what they can and no one can absolve themselves of responsibility based on what they view as another’s responsibility.
