Feral Cow Shooting in the Gila

[Addicting]

Me and the bois rolling into the Gila to protect the Southern border from BOS TAURUSView attachment 265166

Looks like the skinny guys found the safest place is behind the front guy. Sure Daryl you can join, we needed a front man for our assault team. Lol

Man I thought we had some goofiness on HT in the off-season. The comment sections on there is great! It’s like you got every person who doesn’t know their ass from a hole in the ground and likes to argue in 1 group!

 

[Mallardsx2]

I would shoot one and pack it out if they would let me. Why not?!

NM Gila wild range cattle? Cross of longhorns and corriente and the kitchen sink. Tough as shoeleather I'm sure. Might make burger if you double grind it and pretend.
They will try and kill you in a heartbeat too.

That's why the cowboy club has not volunteered to help with the issue. One they love. And have enabled.
They are owning the FS...LOL.
FS says hold my cow chip...

Long horn is just bad beef. I threw away over $200 worth of it (to the dogs, actually). Just bad.

Might explain why @Eric Albus has to rely on promoting his outfitting business. Ranching long horn breed was a bust?

I've found ways to make everything else in my freezer edible. I think I'd find a way with feral beef pretty easy. There's not much on this earth that a grinder, pressure cooker, Dutch oven, or crockpot can't fix.

If you can make Canada geese edible beef of any kind will be just fine.

 

[PrairieHunter]

I think they should issue tags.

Gotta love how the government wastes $.

Regret reading some of those comments but I guess I've had enough internet for the week

It's the diver ducks that take real finesse

I've only killed a few divers in my life...gonna catch heat for this but the dog needs ducks to train with too.

I personally can't think of anything more gratifying than shooting a feral bovine, maybe a feral horse...

 

[Nick87]

maybe a feral horse..

Right in the fuggin head.

Much, much rather shoot the bovine. I'd drive to the Gila for that.

 

[BrentD]

No one's stopping you.

Well there is the law, of course

 

[NAHMINT]

No tags, just open season. screw the tags.

Kinda like up here on VANCOUVER ISLAND......for HOGS, FALLOW DEER and TURKEY,=open season and N.B.L. that goes for eastern cottontail too.
ya just need to find them

Buddy in PERTH,Western Australia , licenced govt.pest/ animal control fella says the wild range bulls are just plain mean,dangerous and VERY SMART....he has hunted the world over and says CAPE Buffalo are kind of predictable in most places, the ''outback feral bulls'' are very UNPREDICTABLE.........makes for a ''on your toes'' hunt.

Wow. Lots of cattle knowledge on here today

 

[rogerthat]

Would most of these cattle be in unit 16b? I don’t suppose just telling the elk hunters in 16b the cattle were fair game would have amounted to much harvest. It would have played better in the press however. Helicoptering them isn’t a great look for the forest service.
