The fastest cartridge is undoubtedly the 6.5 CM. It must shoot at least 6,000fps.

If we had beef i do not remember nor do i care at this point but i am sure my bull is bigger than yours!. Hahaha. You drawing 3 az antelope tags when i can’t draw one though? Might have to rekindle the beef! But, let’s keep it on topic. Rossi, apologize, present evidence or resign.

I will not be satisfied until a correct apology is made or evidence is presented. If Trphy can be accused we all can. G&F also monitors this forum. Clear his name or clear your account. Unethical does not equal illegal. Anyone that has hunted a lot and killed a lot has done something others would probably think was "unethical” but is also 100% legal. Rossi, i’ve been on this forum for a good 20 years and have seen a lot of members progress over the years and it’s fun for me to see. You were a very humble guy trying to learn how to become a good hunter and how to turn your son into a good hunter. Your family drew a pile of good tags in a short period and you PAID an outfitter to find you some good (not great) animals and i’ve witnessed the shift in your humility and honesty. You used to be a guy that asked for help and advice and turned into a guy that looks down his nose at someone who asks for help and advice. I am not perfect and have had beef with a lot of people on this forum but I have never and would never make an accusation of someone being a poacher without having a book of evidence to back it up. Keep paying for mediocre animals and keep throwing stones at people for making honest posts and trying to keep a dying forum alive. I will go out on a limb and guess that we’ve probably seen your last post. I would have been disappointed in that fact a few days ago but not now.

So you shot off a loose accusation publicly, then PM’d him with a more detailed accusation? Don’t act like you didn’t specifically accuse him of shooting a buck the night before the hunt. That comment has now been made public by trphy so it needs to be addressed. Forget about what you posted PUBLICLY. Explain to us why you called him a poacher PRIVATELY. I agree, weak. Man, i almost always enjoyed your posts, reading your stories and seeing your success but i have zero respect for a person that tries to absolutey ruin someone’s reputation over a rumor. This is EXACTLY what is wrong America currently. Everbody is getting canceled over false accusations. I expect more from the veteran members of this and this one REALLY disappoints me.

Well…..a dude that pays KGS to guide him hears a RUMOR about you poaching and one of the few people you came into contact with during the hunt was KGS. I’ll make the accusations for you. I dunno who needs to pay an outfitter all the time when you live 2 hours from the unit? I guess I’d probably kill bigger animals if I did. 🤷

Man, this is juicy. Trphy, you have every right to be pissed. Calling someone a poacher without any evidence is LOW. I remember talking to you about your hunt. I remember you teling me you missed a big one the first day and settled on the one you killed somewhere about mid-hunt. You are handling the situation better than i would. I would bet a lot of money that EVERY major outfitter in AZ has some serious skeletons in their closet. A major outfitter starting a poaching RUMOR about someone else is about the worst case of “the pot calling the kettle black” i’ve ever heard.

At 14bp’s you are likely to never hit max BP’s for rifle. Muzzy draw odds really aren’t any easier than rifle either. I’m at 25BP’s and I’m worried i might not hit max for another 10 years. I have killed 5 or so in other states so i am holding out for a special tag.

I’m tempted to buy it just to prank someone.

99% of the elk are on private. If you really want to do an OTC elk, the hunts in unit 2 are MUCH better.

Please tell me you didn’t shoot this moose

So it has begun. How many BP’s did you have?

G&F talks about killing feral hogs in AZ but they won’t say where they are. If they want them killed, tell us where they are and they’ll get killed. I’ll never understand why everyone is so secretive about them here.

Man, it must be tough when you can’t even pay someone to hunt with you.

Doesn’t look like 25bp’s is enough for antelope. No tags again. Man, you’d think a blind squirrel would find a nut once in while. I’ve never drawn a tag in my life that i wasn’t in the max pool for…

That’s a GREAT buck! If thats your first coues, it’s going to be a journey to top it. Congrats

Looks to be about size 48 font if i had to guess

Does anyone have a good source in the east valley? It is getting harder and harder to find. Doesn’t seem like anyone wants to sell it and you just have to “know a guy” to get some. Only need about 10lbs or so.

No

I would be 100% game with having to wait several years after drawing a certain premo tag or have to apply 10 consecutive years for rifle antelope and sheep before your name goes in the hat. This wouldn’t help trophy quality but would probably knock down the bonus pass on quite a few hunts. Raising tag proces would do nothing. Every person puts 20 applications on their credit card anyways. Money up front would not solve but would surely help the problem of BP farming that is going on, especially since PointGuard became a thing

this is one of the most ridiculous statements i’ve read. Would you rather have a good shot at killing a big animal once in your lifetime or a reasonable chance at killing a big animal every several years? Quality is down across the state but it is still there. You’ve just got to hunt a little harder now.

Is it a 4 stroke?

The way i see it, they are 3,199+tax. Probably going to save around 3-400 rather than buying new. Good deal for someone!

I bet 98-102. Nice buck

Don’t start your post with "not asking for any honeyholes, just a place to start" especially when you have not looked at the G&F page under "where to hunt" if someone helps you on a hunt and you don’t report back or post an update, your man card and hunting license should both be pulled.

4b. Kill two birds with one stone. Draw with low points and kill a 400" bull
