It’s 90% done. At this point you’re only hope is that you have a card that is slow to report charges or that someone else who applied for your hunt has a card that gets declined. They will charge some cards next week for people who were next I line behind someone whose card was declined. A few days of that and then it’s over. Results should be posted by the end of the week.

Congrats! Keep us posted.

First world problems.

Man what a year for you!

Now that everyone’s apps are in, what is everyone hoping for in their draw “stocking”? For us it was a bunch of different things, but we have a pretty full fall already so we swung for the fences on most apps: 3a3c rifle on a couple apps 20a as a second choice for a few, never been there, be fun to hunt something new. Mom and grandma put in for late Kaibab tags, which would probably be signed over to one of my kids. The hunts I am probably most hopeful for is my two boys who put in for the Kaibab youth hunt. Last year it was tons of fun. Their second choice is a youth desert mule deer hunt and then coues rags for choices 3-5. We had 5 apps for sheep and it pretty much covered the map: 9/10 late hunt, 27/28 rocky, 37B. Good luck everybody!

Really informative podcast on the condor situation.

Dude do some research. AZGFD did not introduce these birds. They don’t get to pick and choose what animals get to live on the landscape and which ones go extinct. We have the feds for that. And they did not ban hunting coyotes. They banned idiots from having a big contest where people get prizes for stacking up piles of dead animals and taking pictures and the. putting it on social media. Get your facts straight. Who cares about lead, switch to non-lead, no big deal and the anti’s don’t have any argument.

Looks like it will touch Roosevelt and Top of the World. Holy shoot.

Dude I still remember that pic. You put a guess the location thread on here and then sent me a $10 sportsman’s card for getting it first. I am glad they saved it. And in a year, the rest of that area will be coues heaven and actually glassable.

They have to save something. But the sheep habitat there is screwed. Looks like just about everywhere I have seen them is moonscaped.

Halfway through the orchard . . .

Yeah, the habitat will come back better than ever. But the cliff dwellings and the orchard could be gone forever.

This makes me sick.

Still a favorite thread. Thanks for sharing this news. Prayers for his family.

I agree. Nice improvement.

Wait... so there was a time when CWT was centered around the exchange of useful information and sharing ideas relevant to hunting coues? 2010 must have been a weird time.

That’s correct. And that third choice has to be a hunt with 100% draw for choices 1-2. That basically limits you to an October or November coues tag in a southern unit.

Does it come with a bedding block?

Interesting you went for 13A as your only choice over 13B. Maybe you know something the rest of us don’t.

I would focus on an access point as far as possible from a major highway. I wouldn’t worry too much about east/west. I’d just find a remote access point, climb up high and start glassing. You’ll find coues deer.

Wish I still had one of my 2V 5.4’s. Awesome trucks.

That’s some good shooting.

Well that’s not reassuring.

And also where was the shot placement (scapula, ribs, spine, etc)

Dude. What a year.
