Had the same problem and had sportsmans put on rings that didn't fit right. My scope would move back a lot. Took it to bear mountain and was set up with tactical rings that keeps my scope tight without any rail change. have a tikka T3 with a vortex viper 6.5-20x44 and just the rings work for mime

There was a story about this same kind of thing on the news last night. Just caught the tail end of it.

Just bought the sportsman guide ladder. Haven't used it yet but looks good for the money. 50 bucks after shipping. Only thing I can see wrong with it out of the box is the peices that bolt to the actuall ladder. I can't get the bolt through 2 of them. Will just have to drill it out to make the hole smooth and should be good to go.

Been hiking back some of the closed roads getting to know some new areas for elk hunt only to find camps and quads zipping by me. Probibly be the same in September. People either don't read signs that are on the 87 or don't care. Little of both I'm sure.

Coconino. dang this perdictive text

That's awesome. Sounds like you found the bear hang out. I would have been a little nervous when I saw the cubs also.

That's a lot of bone. Good job

I love the color of that bear

That's a shooter to me any day! I'm guessing you shot that buck right before dark without anyone around to help pack out haha

Sweet bear. Good job!

Those are Some dandy bucks

Awesome bird. Congrats!

Got mine yesterday. Now it's the waiting game for September to roll around.

I agree with azslim. This was my first year puttin in for a unit I have spent a few hours in so know little about it. The unit I normally put in for seems to be getting worst every year. My first choice was a 22 south hunt and second choice 5a. I drew September 5a archery. The whole reason for putting in for those units was hopefully get drawn and check out a new unit.

anyone ever seen a bull like this? left side of his head is bald looking to.

Awesome buck and awesome mount. Congrats!

Lots of people will be driving roads and lots of people will be trying to "claim" a water hole by setting up blinds and tree stands early. It's a weird time of year there where you can be rain or snowed on the whole trip or it can be hot. If warm find water or trails to water. I try to Find water as far away from a road as possible to avoid dealing with people trying to "claim" there spot. If weather gets bad I've seen elk a few times come off the rim. Lots of roads that take you to bottem of rim and can glass the rim itself.

I drew my second choice

5a archery can't wait to start scouting

I will be doing the same haha

Tj More successful then me in the draw and the animals harvested for sure. Drew elk tag but still waiting on what hunt

We have a cabin up there and always see bulls but the November hunt is tough which I'm sure you know. I've seen your posts and your turkey out of there last year was a toad. Good luck to yah!

Tj the early or late hunt?

Now it's saying draw results is experiencing extremely high volume

My buddy said he got or saw a message saying site will be back up after 5:00 or 5:30 or something? Does it say that on the error page or has anyone else heard that?
