Quick Trip

[AZ402]

I made a quick scouting trip this A.M. for Javelina. A couple of the Idaho boys have the same tag as I do. Figured I'd post a few pics of the terrain, so they could get an idea of the area. The only javelina I saw today was a lone boar. Lots of fresh sign, should be a fun hunt.

That creek looks good enough to take a dive into

Dude thanks. That looks like some awesome country. It also looks tough to glass for those little guys in too.

How do you hunt for them baby pigs? Is it all just glassing?

Where do they like to hang out?

What is a day in the life of a little piggie?

Great looking country. That looks like a nice Coues buck, too.

That's funny! I did watch a coues doe eat the green grass on the birm of a tank for about 10 minutes yesterday. I couldn't find a buck near her. The rut might be over in that part of the state.

How do you hunt for them baby pigs? Is it all just glassing? A lot of glassing for sure.

Where do they like to hang out? The love to eat prickly pear cactus. A good hill side with a lot of prickly pear is a good place to start. They'll bed somewhere real thick usually. I have seen them under Juniper trees bedded quite a bit as well.

What is a day in the life of a little piggie?eat, sleep, crap. They're mostly a morning/evening hunt. The one I saw yesterday was at 11:3 A.M., you just never know when you may see one.

Will you be using the fiber optic distance indexing killing tool?

It's a general tag but I plan on using archey tackle. I guess that could change if there were a situation where a few of us could tag out at the same time.

Javi's are are my short term bucket list.

On my list as well.... 1.5 months and they should have a Check mark by it

Ernesto, good chance you draw out when you're ready. If you have a few days, odds are you'll get one.

One more for the road, I really like the area we'll be hunting.

I hope not, I am going up there next weekend to help out a couple of guys.

All the Muley does I saw, had no buck with them. It's hard to tell with the Coues deer. I'd say the Muleys are done or close to it.

I see them in Cottonwood and Sedona quite a bit. They are ranging wider and wider each year it seems. I've seen them at 7800ft on Mingus Mountain.
