    Kawasaki Mule Pro FXT

    Anyone have one? Anyone tried one out? I'm in the market for a 6 seater side by side, (4 kids and counting) trying to get feedback on this one. I have my doubts about the cheap looking bench seat cushion? I don't want a huge super crew type machine, these looked pretty nice and aren't super long. Thanks

    Shot lion-need help tracking

    Yep, make it a flagrant, leaning toward ejection now. With less than 10 posts, you have to grant him a little grace for not being well versed in CWT unwritten protocols though.

    Tracking Milage

    I am looking for the cheapest easiest way to just track mileage hiked for the day. I use my iphone, (GAIA GPS app, which I really love used for 4 years now), for all of my waypoints, directions, satellite maps, topo maps, roads etc, but I can't leave it on and tracking me all day or the battery will die, and I don't want to have to charge it while out for the day. What would you suggest ?

    Where am I?

    Breaking in some new boots and came across what was maybe a half-finished house or shelter? Look familiar to anyone?

    15A, 15B, and 18A ELK HUNT

    Man, sorry about the luck. 6 years for a cow tag is rough. You could have had the best cow tag in the state with 5 or 6 points... Now you have one of the worst tags. I'll do you a solid and tell you what you need to do to be successful: Tip #1 Do not hunt units 15a or 15b. Tip #2 Drive to 18a on a scouting trip the end of October. Find some public land(alot of private checkerboard ground here with hermits with guns, so get a map and be careful), preferably with water(harder than it sounds), cover, and feed(what side of the fence did it rain on in Aug/September?). Hike around different areas (be prepared to hike 15-20 miles on your weekend) glassing morning and evenings and hiking in between until you find alot of sign or see what you are after. Come back on opening day and pray they aren't on the other side of the unit already or that the local Kingman hunting posse didn't already sniper them at first light opening morning, scaring the rest of the survivors into the trees for the remainder of the year.

    viewing trail camera pics in the field

    Small lightweight laptop. Bought a used warrantied one. Just so nice to see pics large and instantly store in organized files for later, delete, share etc.

    Zen Ray Prime 10-42HD??

    I have them, they have worked very well for me for two years now. I'm fine with not having the best. The value proposition for the good knockoffs is too high to ignore these days. If you can get 90% of the quality, which is what I feel I am getting, for literally 25% of the cost ($450/$1800), then I'm a buyer. The value would be equivalent to buying swaros for $500 (90% / $450)... I'll probably get some good comments on that, but as a business school guy, CPA ,and company president, I can't not think that way even when talking hunting costs...

    Elk, moon phase and the Rut

    Jay Scott and his guests tend to think the only reason they are quieter during the day during large moons is because they stay up partying all night. You can get up a few hours before light and hear/locate them and be within striking distance when it gets light, so they say. Last year the only thing I noticed was a very strong correlation between the temperature and the rut activity where I was hunting. The coolest three days in the middle of the hunt were the best three days.

    Fresh Muley

    Freshy is a really cool antler to a deer I had summer pics of.

    Card Hit - 2016 style

    This is a little scary, an actual quote from the azgfd website article: "Meanwhile, the random draw process remains on schedule and should be completed by mid-April."

    Card Hit - 2016 style

    I prefer shooting trout in the waterI see what you did there:)haha! I vaguely remember. Maybe you can remind the class of that incident, 100 pager here we come!

    Fall hunt recommendations are up on G&F site

    All the sheep over here got that coughing sickness in the herd and they don't know what the mortality will be. They claim it can be very high in some cases. They could have no hunt at all.

    Fall hunt recommendations are up on G&F site

    Unit 9 December rut rifle hunt. 5 more tags for 13b rifle. 5 less tags for 13a archery. They are still assessing the 15s sheep situation.
  18. I called in this bull for a friend and filmed it with my iphone. The cow calls you hear are his cows he left to come find me. He is spooked by my buddy who was about 7 yards away from him when he spooked. I told him, as soon as you see him through the trees or hear walking, be pulled back and ready, well, both of the cues happened, and he didn't do the most important part of the sequence , ie, pull back your bow. Oh well! What do you think this bull scores? https://youtu.be/2Qtx5TJNCAw

    Boquillas new rules / permit structure out

    Hopefully there is a way it can be worked out and everyone can play nice. Maybe the 2016 tag holder could help you out?

    Card Hit - 2016 style

    It does say "Hunt permit tags and refund warrants mailed out by April 22nd 2016" anything before that is just a bonus to us. We don't like that line of reasoning around here. Take that back down to Tucson. jk. But you are right. The precedent of normally knowing early kills us.

    If "something went wrong in the system, they are working on it" is our current status, we could be in for a long wait similar to some of the "problem" drawings in the past.

    Last Day to Update Credit Cards!!!

    I don't think they have ever started the credit cards hits on a weekend have they? They have said in the past they were going to stop doing the courtesy credit card calls, but they have continued to do them. It got my wife a tag a couple years ago because of a CC charge failure from the Target CC debacle.

    Need A Longer Pole...

    I would not have participated in that party.
  25. Trump is just so abrasive, proud, offensive and easily offended. I just don't see strong positive qualities in him that I would want in a POTUS.
