I’d be taking that offer!

Nobody deserves this much luck. But I am happy my kids are getting some really cool experiences while they are young!

This is in reference to CHAMP permits, not crossbow permits. That being said… I don’t think anyone has presented any actual data on fraudulent crossbow use. If they have, I would be interested to see how that info was gathered.
-
Most importantly though, why would we make life harder for people who already have a harder life. So compound Bowhunters can hunt whatever unit they want? No thanks. I’d rather a few people abuse the privilege than make life tougher than needed for those who actually have a problem. If that impacts my opportunity, I can live with that.

Because they want it to be done by a specific kind of doctor. But I don’t think this group of people know what doctors could diagnose these kinds of conditions nor do I think the dept wants to be in the middle of lawsuits about requiring people with disabilities to visit doctors they would not need to visit otherwise for a signature for something that has nothing to do with their area of specialty. For instance, someone with a neurological condition may meet all of the other requirements but not be treated by an orthopedic surgeon, because their condition is primarily related to the nervous system. Under this proposal that person would need to visit a specialist who knows nothing about their condition, potentially obtaining a referral to do so (which would require another office visit and associated cost), providing medical history, and then helping them understand the process designated by AZGFD. Seems like an awful lot of burden to heap onto people who already have to deal with a lot just to prevent a few people from maintaining their CHAMP permit because they aren’t disabled enough. This whole thing just wreaks of jealousy and self-preservation.

MAP - Senate Bill USFS Lands for Sale - Units 5, 6 & 21 Hit Hard
Flatlander replied to AZCoueser's topic in The Campfire
Mike Lee R-UT, by way of Trump's Big Beautiful Bill. The best way to kill it will be to make sure that the BBB can't pass with it in there. Montana already negotiated an exclusion from federal land sales in this bill so their senators will vote for sales elsewhere, but not at home. What a crock. We need to make sure that Trump and any republican with an aspiration for something higher knows we will not let this stand. That if they ever want a vote from a hunter, they better take this out. I mean, they could propose to develop Mount Graham. What a crock. -
MAP - Senate Bill USFS Lands for Sale - Units 5, 6 & 21 Hit Hard

Unbelievable. All of the Usery mountains. The entire lower salt recreation area. Huge portions of the rim above pine, strawberry and Christopher creek. Huge piece of the Tonto NF West of the 87. All so they can roll up a few bucks into the national budget and spend it in one year. Unbelievable. Now would be a great time to contact every legislator you know. -
Anyone got the skinny on any of these violations? Especially the bighorn one.
-
Did you happen to catch the portion of the meeting about rulemaking?
-
Got a call this week for a returned 23 late rifle bull tag. We couldn’t take it, hopefully one of you suckers gets it!
-
I think this rule making is related to live wildlife permits, but it’s always so hard to decipher what is actually being discussed from these agendas it’s hard to be sure.

Andy is a good dude, offered a solid deal, communicated well and shipped fast. Would buy from him anytime.

I would spend my time looking for glassing points rather than elk. If you can find sheds I bet those bulls are in that same country in November / December.
-
Hey Catclaw what do you want to know? I did quite a bit of research for our Eastman’s article this year, happy to help if you’d like.
-
Good call. I would also reach out to guide’s and outfitters who have guided it in the past, those guys can be super helpful and most are happy to share this kind of information. If I was in the position to draw one of these tags I would hire one of the outfitters who hunt multiple units every year. It’s crazy how much some of those dudes know about these herds.
-
Probably worthwhile. Those rams aren’t getting harvested anyway. Not sure how many are around, but if you have time or money to hire someone with time it would be an effective way to check off a big ten or slam species.

Wow, great deal on a great trailer.

Check out archerytalk classified forums. Best place to buy used bows

Cavity search on aisle 9 please!

Was she driving with her shirt off?

For 25 years (probably a lot longer than that actually) archery hunters have had the opportunity to hunt while rifle hunters were in the field in some units. It has never been the case that hunting with rifle hunters was the ONLY opportunity.
-
Maybe it was cause my 77 yo dad lit them up with emails about how ridiculous it would be for him to go hunt with his crossbow while dudes were slinging lead from 700 yds with their creedmores. i had no dog in this fight, but the idea that a crossbow is more similar to a centerfire rifle than a compound is to a traditional bow is kind of silly. Who knows, maybe they will decide to ban long range rifles instead? 😀
