I talked with the prospective tag donor last night when I got back in town (individual is moving back to his home state and wants to see an Arizona disabled veteran get to hunt using his tag). Appreciate those of you who put my/our (Heroes Rising Outdoors) name out there!

FYI. deadline to apply for this is TOMORROW, May 4. For more info, give a listen to Huntin' Fool's "Built to Hunt" podcast, Episode 112, Grand Canyon National Park Bison Removal ...

I've got a couple 1-pound cans of IMR4350 I'd trade for same of H4350 ...

I'm going to piggy back on Sean's thread (okay with you, Rossi?). I also personally drew for sandhill crane, and will be taking 2 disabled vets hunting cranes on donated tags. In the same boat --- it's crazy how skimpy ammo is out there now again (we all know why). I'm in need of some ammo I can shoot out of a 3.5" 12-gauge. LEAD shot preferred! Any HeviShot 3.5" Goose #4s to be had out there anywhere? Or something close??? I'm in the East Valley, will drive anywhere in the Phoenix area ...

This flag run will be the 7th annual one held by Desert Fanatics to benefit a veteran organization. This year all funds raised go towards Arizona Elk Society's Heroes Rising Outdoors program. DF was fortunate that the city of Glendale agreed to let the run go forward with a few stipulations (like face masks and social distancing). Would we prefer things were such that we didn't have to make those concessions? Sure. But how would not having the event at all raise funds for vets? It wouldn't. As for no political signs? This is NOT a pro-conservative event, other than the supporting of our veterans who put love of country above themselves! Anything other than that diminishes those sacrifices and redirects our coming together to something else. There are plenty of opportunities to fly flags in support of Trump (or whomever/whatever) --- this won't be one of them. This is about our veterans. I think we can all get behind that ...

This is a ONE-TIME happening - the largest event yet to specifically benefit Heroes Rising Outdoors! If you’re not out hunting this Saturday, no better way to support Arizona’s disabled veterans. You DON’T want to miss this (trust me)! Here's a video from Desert Fanatics Veterans Flag Run last year --- this year's event will be even BIGGER! Come out and join us this Saturday (Nov. 14) in raising $$$ in support of Arizona Elk Society's Heroes Rising Outdoors veteran outreach program. I personally look forward to seeing you there!

It's a feline camel ...

Glad it worked out (he's a friend on FB) ...

Calling you ...
