    Border Patrol

    I've got a couple of upcoming hunts in 29 here shortly, one for myself and one for my wife. I know where we are going to hunt and am trying to find out if there has been any illegal activity in the area as of late. My wife is somewhat uneasy about the hunting situation in border unit and it'd be great to have some reassurance about recent activity. I have read somewhere on the forum of numbers to BP offices, however, in my search to find these numbers I have been unsuccessful. Does anyone have any information on how to obtain knowledge of this topic? Will BP be able to tell me of this info if I disclose exact locations of where we'll be hunting? Any help would be appreciated. Thank You

    BP id bet. The best way to obtain info is to ask an agent in the field. Describe where you will be and he/she should be able to answer your questions. Thank you. I appreciate the information. I take it you are not currently in that location?
  5. I was in the same exact situation as you; I've got a 25-06. The Vanguard triggers are horrible; absolutely horrible. I put a Timney Trigger on mine about two weeks ago and don't regret it one bit. They are awesome triggers and will enhance your groups altogether. They are really accurate rifles as is, but to do any long distance shooting with confidence, you really need a better trigger. Good luck.

    Taking out my first youth hunter!

    There is nothing more rewarding than what you are doing IMO. Very cool deal of you to do ;) Patience is key. Be as supportive and encouraging as you can if that buck just can't seem to be found in the rifle scope. Shrug off a miss and go find another one. The first experience is one of the most critical for the future experiences. Good luck to both of you and I hope your experiences are awesome together!

    A record book bear

    The first bear I ever shot came from 29. I didn't know what I had (meaning the quality of the bear), nor how big he actually was until measuring the skull; Ended up at 20 7/8". He was a big ol' boar. A 20" skull is a really big bear for around AZ. A lot of it depends on you though, what makes a trophy in your book?

    Welcome to our new sponsor - Optics 4 Rent

    Cool! I think there are some folks on here that do glass rather frequently with 10's off of a tripod was the reason for me asking. Some may feel the weight of the 15's plus the tripod gets cumbersome over the course of a day hiking in coues country. Welcome to the site and good luck with your business here!

    Welcome to our new sponsor - Optics 4 Rent

    Pretty cool deal. Prices seem pretty fair as well. Could save some folks some serious money if they're not into or cannot afford the huge payment. What tripod is included with the package deals and is it possible to get a tripod with the 10's or 8's?
  19. You can freeze a few 16 oz water bottles and wrap them up in socks or some sort of insulation, a few inches thick. The insulation will help to keep them frozen longer. When you get your meat deboned and ready to pack into whatever it is (I like the pillowcases as well) put the water bottles in with the meat. It will help to start the cooling process.

    Topo maps for San Carlos

    Is there a difference between these two aside from price and the look on the box; such as an updated version? One I pulled up off the CWT store and the other directly from National Geographic website. I do want to be able to utilize the 3D option. Is this available off of the one we can buy through CWT store?

    Leftover tags

    Fill out a regular application just like normal. If you are one of the first come, they will issue you a tag and mail it to you. To know if you were drawn, give it at least a couple days to call and ask the ladies if you were able to snag one up. They have to manually search, its not automated like the normal draw. There will be a ton of applications going in so a lot to process. If you don't get one, they will return your application to you, opened with a stamp on it that says "unsuccessful hunt filled", with your check or money order. Hope this helps you out.

    Thank You

    In complete agreement. Nice job AZGFD. I wonder if the "New" person that got hired in the draw dept. got everything lined up good? That job was open a couple months ago.

    MUle Deer Unit 29

    Its tough. Access is an issue in 29, so are the mule deer numbers. Take a trip down and do some early morning/late evening glassing in areas that you can access. Good Luck.
