I've heard of a few friends doing this...but usually someone's dad or parents that can no longer hunt or no longer want to hunt, but like to come along and spend time in camp. It's a great setup if you find the right person...

Is anyone else...

Me too! 100% so far and that's a first for me. -

Awesome story, awesome buck! CONGRATS!

Fun game with the family. Didn't expect to be sitting in the rain at a Wildcats game. Almost like a football game back east.
-
Awesome...congrats! And how dare you shoot one without its winter coat? Blasphemy!

How close is that to Area 51?
-
Yeah he's a jerk...but you did the right thing. Good job.

Welcome to AZ...I grew up hunting in TN, so similar background. AZ hunting is a lot different and takes a little getting used to, but I've grown to prefer glassing and spot n stalk over the typical treestand hunting in the south. No recommendations on a group of hunters, but hopefully you find someone on here...always more fun to scout and hunt with others. I had a friend with this tag a couple years ago and he said it was a tough hunt. Most of the areas I know have a lot of mule deer. Not sure on whitetail. I've always heard access is a tough issue for whitetail hunting in 34b. Start here on the azgfd site and might try to contact one of the wildlife managers in the unit. I ran into one in Jan during archery and he was surveying whitetails, so I'm sure he can tell you some good starting points and access issues. http://www.azgfd.gov/h_f/hunting_units_34b.shtml Good luck and again welcome to AZ and CWT!

Looking for a tag holder, unit 1 youth hunt
bigorange replied to Pine Donkey's topic in Youth Hunters
+1 huge props for doing this...just one of the many reasons I love this site! -
Thanks Tony for boiling it down just the facts. And speaking of boiling...if you need some tag soup recipes, I've become quite the tag chef the past couple years!

That was probably MacGyver aka Elkhunter1

I've been shooting the .270 130gr Accubonds. Shooting pretty well for me so far.

Awesome first archery deer! Congrats!

Opening Day Buck, First Archery Deer Down
bigorange replied to darrcolburn's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
Awesome! Thanks for posting. -
Nope, exact same spot the only deer I saw in there was a few does. Saw one small forky about four miles east of there. if you were with me we could have taken them and saved the Border Patrol lot of time and money Crazy. We were just talking about how traffic patterns had changed some and the changes in habits of the smugglers. Glad you stayed out of harm's way...and great job on the assist.

Wow Steve...not the kind of excitement I hoped to hear about from your hunt today....same parking place and canyon as we went yesterday or were you in a different spot?
-
Steve is the man! He put me on more bucks yesterday than I saw most of the season last year. Thanks for sharing your spot with me and hopefully we can get it done another day. When you called and said you needed help I was immediately thinking you had found the big boy and needed help packing him out! Sorry I was already tied up with family obligations otherwise I would have dropped everything and come to help. Glad you figured that out...still amazed! As a testament to CWT, if Steve hadn't reached anyone else or figured anything out I was ready and waiting to post a call for help here and I know Steve would have had help within a few minutes! Reminds me I need to put my jump box back in the truck...

2 words: safety harness!

It's right there under that mesquite. Next to the ocotillo.

Cool idea for a camera box...
