Very interesting on the quail stuff. They mentioned the quail are too smart for the cone traps used for dove -- surprising. Our local quail would be similar to the golf course quail and our neighborhood quail are HUGE, albeit not that warry, so they may not fare well. Only a third of the nesting females surviving is disappointing. Tough life for these critters that seem to only respond to winter rains. Looks like it is going to be a BOOM year next with great numbers this year and record rains in January. Wish the same could be said for the mearns. Summer rains have sucked, though.

and, yet, still the wallet will barely shut.

PLUS we don't have a big, worthless sheet of meaningless advertisements.

I stand corrected ... things have changed. It would be a little funny if she were drawn ... better buy that protection thing too.

Some folks start the bonus point gathering as soon as they get their newborn a ss #. Ironic the license cost $5 but tag fee is way more for just a bonus point.

I used my first one for the late WT hunt. Pretty convenient. I think MOST Wildlife Managers will cut you some slack till we all get this figured out (dead phone) but you should do it as soon as you can to "tag" the animal. "Durable" concerned me till I watched the AZGFD videos, and they suggested flagging tape. Flagging tape does not seem durable to me so I ascertain that maybe this is not such a big deal since you "used" your tag and don't have another to keep on hunting. I like the idea that it yields all harvest data which is what they base the numbers of tags on.

Did you shoot it and then sell it because you parted your skull with it?

When you say "Pop's", I know who it is! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

What did I win?

Between Safford and Three-Way.

How about a comparison review with the Swaro's?

I think he was between 10-14 as I went through hunter safety with him before the hun but this was something like 35 yr ago. They were only Bushnell's and not the better quality ones. He also melted my air mattress with the Coleman lantern.

I took my nephew out. He borrowed his dad's binos. He left them in the field and did not tell me till it was too late. I would stick with cheap and used at first till his commitment level is secured.

COSTCO had a package of like 7 different small bottles.

THERE YOU GO! CONGRATS. You look a little tired. {note I came back to ask some questions and this unsubmitted post popped up) I went back and looked at the video. I recall a similar panic when the sheep did not go down right away. My buddies were going nuts (shoot-don't shoot, not hit the horns or the other sheep, etc.) In hindsight, it was obvious it was not going anywhere like mine but that panic was unnerving. Then JUBILIATION. The five year anniversary of me posting pics just hit on FB so I have been reliving my adventure. How many years of putting in and how many bonus points? (Sorry, if that info was buried in the subsequent posts and I missed it) Have you got to try some of the backstraps yet? Mine were really tough but good tasting.

And he did ... albeit brief.

You could do your own post. Better than all those Gould's tags combined? CONGRATS!

I wish this was in 460 S&W Mag

Do you reload?

yes, regional office.

2 RV Parks in Patagonia. I stayed Patagonia RV Park: 520-400-3857. It is hard to find spaces that are not being used by miners in working up Harshaw Rd. There is also Spirit Tree Inn up Harshaw Rd.

The sideways pics drive me nuts.

I had three flocks of turkeys come into a pond (tiny) during my cow hunt. They just seemed so stupid and easy to take but they have internet and know the season closed 5 days previous! They sauntered withing 25 yrd of me on the way out. so humbling.
