this won't last long

i think everyone uses a guy from prescott. there is a member here who is very savvy, hopefully he chimes in

i have always seen them at high elevations. i am by no means an expert, but i don't think they live in lower elevations? i don't think i've ever seen one under 7,000'. they are neat little animals. i see them when i am fishing in the white mountains more than anything. they turn solid white in the winter. really small. about like a longer chipmunk.

Just a weasel. No pine martens in AZ. I see them a few times a year

Sure wish these were 17-18"....

Any pics?

well done sir. i LOVE when old timers that have been applying forever get the tags

last deer i shot over water was at 19 yards totally broadside. i aimed a little low like always. he ducked and spun 45 degrees and the arrow caught him in the front of the chest. needless to say, he didn't make it far, but i was amazed at how much he moved. i shot another one that totally ducked the arrow at 35 yards. probably dropped over a foot. luckily he didn't run far, aimed really low on the next shot and he ducked into it. i called a bull in for a friend a few years ago. he shot it at around 68 yards and if the bull didn't duck into the arrow he would have shot under it. i say the best solution without getting into an ethics debate about whether to shoot when they are walking, not shoot when they are alert, wait till they take a drink, etc is to aim low on the chest

nope. don't really know what else to say. i'm confused. that's retarded

85-90"

i have been running stealth cams exclusively for the last few years. i think the ones i am running currently are the Stealth cam Skout 7's? they have been great. i never spend more than about $80-$90 on cameras anymore. although a lot of the advertise high MP's, unless you are spending a ton of money, the photos are never better than about 5mp. couple of musts for me now are the external picture counter and 1/4'x20 threaded nut in the bottom. i would personally stick with stealth cam. sportsmansguide and amazon usually have the best deals. every now and again the pop up on camofire. i refuse to use moultry/primos/covert anymore. too many issues in the past.

Awesome. Finally someone posts some cam pics. Thanks for sharing

Growing up a lot of guys i know mouth bugled. Probably didn't sound very good but it was effective. I do think that elk are a lot more educated now with all the calls available and the success probably wouldn't be too good. I remember as a kid my dad would always take me out elk calling. Seems like we went most nights during the rut. It seems like bulls used to be MUCH easier to call in. Not many guys were doing it or doing it right 20 years ago. I have memories of giant elk so close they would blow spit on you when they screamed and calling heard bulls away from cows, which is near impossible anymore. The bull to cow ratio was probably lower then. The hoochie mama came out and sounds pretty good and anyone can use it. That invention really put a damper on elk calling, IMO.

man, GREAT bucks. WMAT I'm guessing?

I'll be in 27 as well. much later in the year though....just how i like it.

get it cut on and get your crossbow permit for archery hunts this year. Or wait until you get an archery bull tag to get it cut on?

These have go-carts written all over them

i think you'll run into more hound hunters above the rim than below anymore. saw a good bear in 27 this weekend below the rim.

Not to hijack, the OP probably knows better. The lug pattern should be the same but the hole for the hub is usually smaller on tacomas. I have run chevy wheels on a tacoma, but not tacoma wheels on a chevy. Those could be chevy wheels though and if so they would fit.

.223 wylde. Chambers both. Better tolerances.

What do the creedmore and .280 weigh?

What caliber is the 94?

Too bad there isn't a 27 south hunt this year. Lame

That's a thumper. I would guess between 3-400 pounds. Hard to tell wirth those pics. Great bear

bring a small net and catch live crawdads and hellgrammites. i have fished the black a lot and all i carry is hooks and split shots anymore. bass can't resist live bait. you can usually stop in a good shallow pool and catch enough bait to last the day in not much time
