    Low/mid grade over under

    Lots of Weatherby Orion's on Gunbroker for well under $1000. That's what I would get if my Weatherby Regency were to be retired.

    AZ auction tags going away

    My guess is AZSFW was making another behind the scenes end run on a Utah style expo/auction event with increased tags and AZGFD needed to head it off as best they could.

    Retire the switchback?

    I was in the same boat as you several years ago. My Switchback LD just felt old and I was losing confidence with it. Tried new rest, sights, stabilizer, arrows, etc but couldn't get the "feel" back. Bought an Elite Impulse 34. Didn't like it. Tried a Hoyt Carbon. Didn't feel right after a...

    Pretty Fly for a Nilgai

    Really cool story, thanks for sharing. Did a hunt on one of the nearby units a few years ago and it was an awesome experience. Its a part of Texas I never knew existed but fell in love with it. Nilgai are incredible animals and tasty too! Thanks again!

    A Boat Full of Po-Boys: A Louisiana Alligator Adventure!

    I've done similar hunts a few times. Really miss the bayou, hard to match the beauty(minus the biting flies). Looking forward to seeing your success!

    Arizona Javalina applications

    There is no definitive draw app opening date but generally it is around mid September. The draw app deadline is the 2nd Tuesday in October, Oct 10th this year. As mentioned, pick up a bonus point in the current draw to increase your odds on the unit you want.

    Lever Monday...post em up

    Handed down by grandfather about 40 years ago. I've never fired it but he used it a bunch. Serial #4500

    Not From Texas

    Can get 2 points a year for each of those. The javelina guys must be some funny dudes. The 3 bison residents with 56 must be scared of the kaibab shit show, 27 years is a long time to wait.

    Arizona 3B North HAM Elk

    Most of that area is OTC from March 1 to July 31. There are a ton of little ranchettes everywhere. White Mtn Estates is the crystal meth capital of eastern AZ, you can go from hunting to being the hunted very quick if you cross private. Not a prime area, but it's still elk hunting. August is...

    Is the Montefeltro played? What's the most core trap gun?

    Growing up my good friend had a Franchi semi-auto. Can't remember the model but it was way too nice for a teenager to shoot. Mostly field, some trap/skeet, but a very nice shooting gun. The new Affinity Elite and Sporting might be something to check out...

    NM draw is open.

    Very good points about NM draw odds and units over the years. However, NM has double the elk population of AZ. NM was really fun and much easier to draw 10+ years ago. Now its lottery odds.

    Slayer Fantasy Football league

    Damn that was a tough loss! Funny thing was I bet on Samuel and Wilson to score TD's. Won a +450 bet for some good cash, but lost by .04 in FF. That's just my luck! Good win, congrats!

    Muzzleloader recommendation for elk under $1500

    Love my CVA Accura V2 with the Bergara barrel. I think it was around $500. Very accurate out to 200-250 yards and can probably be pushed further.

    Worst online application system

    AZ is awful. For instance, with my family of 4 I have to enter Social Security numbers 80 times a year! Credit Card is run at least 20 times a year just for app fees. It's a joke.

    Glen Canyon

    Smallmouth bass can't swim up from Lake Mead? Curious why the focus is always on Lees Ferry, where the water is generally too cold for the endangered chub anyway.

    Disclosing SSN to buy hunting and fishing licenses.

    AZ requires your SS number to make sure you are not delinquent in paying child support.....even if you are 11 years old.

    Texas nilgai

    It's a regular point system I believe, where you have to apply to accumulate a point if not drawn. Can draw the fist time applying or it might take 10 years. I think we had 2 points going in this time. The draw was 2% or less. It is run by TPWD. I have a new found respect for these animals...

    Arizona group hunting

    It's doubtful you will have alot of snow by that time, very likely you will have none. Haven't had a alot of snow there for about 15 years! I've had a cabin in 3b for 25 years and lived there for half of those. It's a fun hunt. PM me if you want some specific spots.
