  1. Elkman,

     

    I just got back from 3 days of hunting bear in San Carlos, did you ever connect on a tag?? I had a great time in Unit C, saw 6 bear but didn't connect. 4 were black, one was chocolate and a cub was rust color (mom was black and big!!). Tough hunt, great scenery, lots of other game so in other words had a great time.

     

     

    Yea we went out for 3 days in unit b. WE saw three bears, all three were called in. The closest one was 13 yards from me at one point. Although he was a little guy. None we good enough to shoot. O well, maybe next time.


  2. Contact Clay @ Mogollon Taxidermy we trade him all the capes of bucks we Euro mount. Plus..... He is "Da Man" when it comes to coues mounts! :D

     

    I tried clay, and he said they have a waiting list for capes. O well, guess he'll have to wait till next year.


  3. I have two heads my boy killed the last two years and we do not have capes for either deer. they were both 100" bucks. I dont have the measurments of the cape, and dont thnk it matters much. If anone wants to part with a couple let me know. thanks josh


  4. I had a B tag about 4 years ago. It was a great but hard hunt. I definitely did not see the number of bears that I see in the Fall. My biggest concern was the weather. Worried that they were still hybernating or if it has been warm, they are out and have been rubbing. I saw a "mohawk" bear that was about an ugly as a bear you would ever see. He was rubbed on both sides and long along the spine giving a mohawk appearance. Anyways, I finally tagged out on a nice bear with a great hide on my last day. Buy a Mountain Lion tag if they do not give one to you if you do go.

     

     

    Thanks guys for the insight. I will check on the tags left over. I am hoping to get one for one of the units.


  5. Everything is legally crossed! I'm not one to break the law or get anyone in trouble. Thx for looking out for me man I appreciate it.

     

     

    Not to doubt you, But we have tried to get permits to bring back sheds and pick ups but the US customs said its next to impossible. I am curious how you brought it back legally. I have a couple of leases down there and we have a couple of monster pick ups i would love to bring back. Thanks


  6. Are there any good networks out there to subscribe to as far as hunting/fishing? Everything that I seem to catch is eastern whitetail hunting or bass fishing. I'd LOVE to see some shows that focus on big game and fishing in the southwest, specifically AZ.

     

     

    I was wondering what cable service had the mens channel. Cox use to in my area but no i cant find it. I live in gilbert. Thanks Josh


  7. I was bored at work tonight and was reading the old archives of monstermuleys.com. I somehow ran into 100 post on the topic of the battle over the buck shot by dan king. I reconized some names from here and was curious on the topic. What ever finally happen with that whole thing. Who ownes the rack. Does anyone have the pictures of dan kings and jim reynolds buck. What unit did it take place in.

    I have heard all sorts of stories on the subject, what was true. I think i seen a picture of the king buck one time but if anyone can post them it would bee nice.

     

    Hope im not bringing up a sore subject for anyone. Not trying to start a debate just would like to know some info on the two largest bucks ever killed. Thanks Josh


  8. I would like to post pictures but im not up on the digital thing yet. I have a couple of trail cams with digital cameras, But i have no idea how to post pics of the shed rack i found. and yea i found it in AZ last year. I seems to be a year old, brown on one side, but i ahve looked for the buck and have not found him. I took one last year from the area and it had the same genes. It was a 4 point plus eye guards but not near as big. If i decide to sell the i will let you know first before i list them. thyanks and good luck to all on friday.


  9. Nice find Jim. :D

     

    I was trying to find coues sheds and skulls on ebay and cant find them. What category are they in? Maybe i just don't know what im doing. Whaat do they go for. I have a matching set of sheds that score 122 without spread Its a typical 4x4 with a lot of mass. What would they be worth.
