Big Tub

I got a game cart, used (got no idea on brand) a few years ago and had the opportunity to use it a couple of more times. It is of very limited utility due to non-flat ground or rocks interfering. I did get to use it near Willcox in the modest foothills -- the trek was down-hill and quite gentle with almost no rocks or vegetation and it worked great. I could see where you could use it on many forest roads also but that is about it. Let me suggest a meat pack and learn how to quarter the animals using the gutless method.

Does G&F no longer do creel surveys? The reports seem to be more of whomever chimes in now.

We found a skull a couple years ago. The Sheriff office does not even get excited about it but the fuss does tend to move the animals away.

Get a Tomcar. Go Big.

I got mine for 199.99 in 2016.

Think Craigslist might be a good place to post this?

Arizona was one of the first to ban the leg-hold trap decades ago.

I know Tucson has had trouble with gunsmiths since Jensens closed. Good to hear about Craig.

I massaged the data a bit: 2018 BHSheep Green Scores.xlsx

Growing up in Morenci and working with a grandson of 30+ years, I had heard a different story: https://truewestmagazine.com/fred-fritz-and-the-grizzly/

Good luck finding large lead shot at prices anywhere close to what it used to be.

GOOD LUCK WITH THAT. You may get a bravery award with that ... posthumously.

kind of reminds me of the bison permits they sell on the north rim ... can sell lots of them!

The data from the AZGF showed that the one tag in 46AW was a no harvest. This is going to be tough.

So did he decide to hire a guide and if so, who?

Note that Chris Harlow is part of Double H Outfitters which has been mentioned above.

Also it would not hurt to "Report this Post" in the upper right dropdown box.

Dang, you guys are ruthless ... funny, but ruthless!

If it makes you feel any better, I put in for 38+ yrs for my tag and the other guy in my unit put in for 51+ yrs but he did get the #1 big one in AZ last year. Needless to say that we both held max bonus points and got the tags on the 20% hold back. Unit 28 will be tough to draw in the future.

I put in for over 38 years and had max bonus points for the 2018 sheep draw and got tag #2 in Unit 28 (south). My son-in-law, Dan Ott, and 26+ year hunting partner, Ed Soyring, accompanied me and the guides, Tyson Hatch and Matt Holcomb of Double H Outfitters. We decided to wait till Monday, Dec 3rd to start hunting to avoid some foul weather and any conflicts with the other hunter in the unit who had been waiting for 51 years for tag #1. Congrats to Craig (and Matt) on his terrific sheep, which scored 189". We saw lots of sheep on the first day and tried a stalk but two big rams got into it and ran off before we were in position. The second day was more discouraging with fewer sheep sighted and the big one from the day before just walking off out of the area. Third day was the charm. High winds kept a herd of 7 rams and 1 ewe pinned down below some cliffs. Three different stalks finally culminated in a 176 yard shot on a very nice ram. Pack-out was easy. He green scored by G&F at 172-1/8” and 6 -7 years old. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ; and, also, to Chris, Matt, Tyson, Ed and Dan.

Craig's story and pics are in jun/jul issue of Epic Outdoors.

Maybe you could sell them to "THE THING" down by Willcox so that will actually have some rattlesnake eggs instead of those that they sell in their tourist trap store.

Beautiful Dog!

Yeah! We got a female Britt. WOW can she whine. Crate training sucks.
