Here goes. I sat this tank last summer and screwed up on every buck that came in without even getting to shoot. This year, I arrived opening day in the afternoon and brushed in a blind and didn't see anything except a doe. The days after that the same doe and little spike would sneak up behind...
Congratulations on the tag! I would go on the AZGFD website and look the unit up. They give pretty reliable info about the different animals in the unit and give some pretty good starting points. Map it out and/or Google Earth from those spots.
I'd go DIY. If you don't have the time to get out to come to AZ and scout, The AZGFD website has some pretty good unit specific info. They point out some good starting points there. From there you can Google Earth the unit and or buy a unit specific map. Some guides will also do the scouting for...
I lucked out this year with 2 points. This will be my second Elk hunt and I am grateful for the opportunity. It's the same hunt I harvested my first Bull in, late rifle after Thanksgiving in AZ. I hope I can get it done again. I do feel for the guys with that are accumulating points and I...
Thanks for taking the time to make that video, it was very helpful. Alot of us AZ residents still have a hard time figuring it out. I just got off the phone with AZ Game and Fish and got some more good info that may help the Non-Residents. My wife and I wanted to invite her uncle from CA to put...
I think that this is an awesome thing to do for Vets. Thank you Idaho and all other states that do this for The Home Team!
I hope they do this for the next few years, I am still waiting to get my first appointment for an evaluation for a percentage increase. I think I may need some Snickers bars...
Outstanding! Congratulations on an awesome buck! My Brother, Wife, her Uncle and I got leftover tags for 35B. We leave today after I get out of work.
Were the bucks solo or still hanging out together?
If you are putting in for Elk for the first time I suggest putting in for hunts with a high tag count and later in the season if you want to go out sooner than later. And I have a good system for deer. I apply for a bonus point only and wait for the leftover hunts to come out and apply for...
Go to azgfd.gov and they will give you some general ideas about that unit and where the animals are. After that, I would Google unit 10 Arizona and tons of stuff will pop up.
I bought the Diamond Back 10's and they have done well for me. My wife has the Crossfire 8's and I honestly cant complain. You do get a larger picture with the 8's but you can pick apart the landscape with the 10's a little better.
