    Deer tusks!!!?

    My sons Coues deer spike he shot this Oct has tusks on his upper jaw! Like ivory on an elk or tusks on a pig. They are small and I don't think they were poking through the skin but when I boiled the skull there they were! They are defenitaly a tusk growing out of a tusk sheath and not like a tooth. I asked Chris at Signature Taxidermy here in Flag if he had ever seen or heard of that before? Because I shure hadn't. He said he had seen it once before on a mule deer a long time ago. Have any of you ever seen this? Or heard of this? Lance
  2. RETREAT INFO- Below is basic info about the 2023 Timberland Elk Retreat. The Timberland Elk Retreat will be 4 days and nights worth of interactive seminars and activities relating to everything Elk Hunting from A to Z! DATES- The event will start the afternoon of July 19, 2023 and end after the morning events of July 23, 2023. GOAL- The purpose of the retreat is to provide fun, relaxation, entertainment and education into a more lethal and productive way of thinking that can be applied to all hunting, self reliance, sustainability and all aspects of life! LOCATION- The Retreat will be hosted at a fantastic mountain lodge and cabins next to beautiful Mormon Lake near Flagstaff, Arizona! LODGING- On the property are many bunkhouse cabins and rooms to rent ranging from $40-$95 a night. There will also be furnished canvas "Glamping" tents for rent from $45-$100 a night. There is also lots of free space to bring your own tent or RV to camp yourself on the property or off the property on National Forest land. Other options for lodging are the nearby Mormon Lake Lodge and cabins. Also many hotels and Airbnb's in nearby Flagstaff AZ. FOOD- Three meals a day. 5 Star meals provided by Timberland Outfitters and #CookingWithLance Food allergies and dietary needs will be attended to with proper notice. ACTIVITIES- In between free time and relaxation, each day will be filled with activities, events and seminars for you to choose from, all hosted by professionals in their field! You will have the opportunity to start each day at first light with either a lethal and long range archery or rifle shooting class, or exciting elk and wildlife viewing and photography! It is the norm to see 400-500+ elk each day near the camp! Including many monster velvet bulls! Other common big game to see and photograph are mule deer, antelope and Merriams turkey! Other activities will include earning prizes for rifle and archery competitions. Shed hunting games, maping and guess the score contests, elk photography and calling competitions. Also Q&A sessions, nightly campfire comaraderie and entertainment and much more! The Timberland Elk Retreat is Not your average elk seminar! You'll realize this right off the start as the first day will include "harvesting the fatted calf". Literally. Followed by hands on lessons of field processing where we will skin and harvest all the meat in the field just like on an elk hunt. Including lessons on anatomy, shot placement and TLO's perfected way of the Gutless Method and TLO Ribroll! #TLOribroll Able volunteer attendees of the retreat will take their own packs and gear and hike to the site. After the hands on seminar, they will pack all the meat back to camp just like elk hunting. Others may attend by vehicle. The harvested meat will then be used for butchering and cooking demos during the retreat! Literally everything "from field to plate!" We will fire up the grill, oven and smoker and eat well the whole time! Other seminars throughout the retreat will be equally as interactive and educational! Everything you need to help you become the dominant predator in your woods! TRANSPORTATION- The lodge is just off a paved road and any vehicle or RV can arrive with ease. Transportation to and from the Flagstaff Airport can be arranged. Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is only 2 1/2 hrs away! Shuttle services by "Groome Transportation" run daily. PRICING- $1,550 per adult. Married Couples 10% off. Youth 17 and under 50% off. Great for a Family or Corprate Retreat. Payment plans available. Let us know if you would like to pre-register and secure your spot. Please share this event with your Friends and Family that may be interested.

  10. Multiple buyers have said they will be there! Please spread the word and come and have some fun! Also an AZ TRAPPING CLASS will be held the same day at the same place starting at 8AM! This is the Predator Hunter and Trappers end-of-the-season rendezvous that you don't want to miss!!! Please spread the word! Come and enjoy a good time with good food even if you don't have fur to bring!
  11. Here are the results from the fur sale. At one point in time we and 5 different buyers that gave their word that they would be there. And a couple others that were interested in coming. In the end there were 2 buyers. But they are the biggest buyers and they paid well. In the end it was as expected, good and well put up fur sold for high prices. And poor fur and bad put up went low or weren't wanted. It's simple, they are making clothing, if you don't put up your fur correctly, they can't use it. It's nothing personal. Learn what is wanted by the buyers. Just because you have a fur does not automatically mean it's worth something. The seller has a job of putting it up properly so it can be used to it's full potential. Start with fleshing it well/perfectly. If you don't flesh your hides well then they will rot and fur will slip. No one wants to spend good money on something you ruined. Then put it up nicely on a wood stretcher in a "Nevada Style" stretch. DON'T take it off the stretchers to early or it will shrink, wrinkle and loose it's usable shape!!! Then clean it! (One way is to Scrub with dry Borax) Clean all grease, oils, dirt, blood and borax off until it is a product that you would want to cuddle with in your own bed! Then and only then is it ready to be sold for it's best value. Many people are anxious and willing to learn these proper ways and their fur gets better every year! Others, don't.... 🤔 This sale and event continues to grow and gain attention. Next year a more traditional style sale in a large building is in the works. Thank you to all those supporters who showed up to help and have fun! Come out and support the ATA.

    SAVE ARIZONA!

    Congrats Arizona! Keep it up! Don't let them lie to you! We need to educate the public that cats and coyotes and other fur bearers are also used for food. Uneducated people will often inquire "if we eat every animal we harvest" in hope to condemn us with their self judgments. Well, yes we do! We do it directly and indirectly. There is the direct eating of animals meat like is common with elk and deer that feed millions of hungry people each year. And then there is the Indirect eating of animals like fur bearers, that also feeds and supports millions of hungry people each year. Meaning that we can sell the fur of that animal and use the money to buy a whole shopping cart, a whole week or whole month's worth of groceries. So in fact, fur bearers are not being wasted just for their fur like the uneducated are preaching. In fact, those animals are being used for more substance for our lives and Families than just their meat alone can provide. Not to mention that their fur also then goes on to provide natural, environmentally friendly clothing for the whole world! That's respectfully using nature's renewable resources to its fullest. Hunters, fishers and trappers have a true understanding of, and with that comes a true love of nature. We have the abundance of wildlife and habitat that we do these days because, hunters, fishers and trappers not only pay the bill for the conservation and balance of it, they also provide the manual labor required to sustain it. If you take this support and conservation away by banning the harvest of certain animals or all animals, you will upset the balance causing all wildlife and their habitat to suffer and be lost in the long run. Nature IS The Hunt. Nature doesn't balance itself nicely on its own. That is a foolish misconception. Nature is full of extreme and cruel highs and lows that cause things like overpopulation and mass starvation. The fact is that​ humans are part of this Earth. Humans aren't going anywhere and so we need to live with nature. Well, it is also fact that humans are the only ones that can balance and conserve wildlife and their habitat. The only way we can live with and have the abundance of wildlife and habitat that we have is if we continue to manage it. Remember that this management that uses hunting, fishing and trapping as precise tools is why we have the abundance of wildlife and habitat that we do in the first place. So, in the future, even if you think you are doing them a favor, please understand that if you vote to ban hunting, trapping or fishing, you are taking away the support and ability to conserve wildlife and their habitat.
