Unit 23S OTC Bear in August 2020
Did either of you go bear hunting? This morning I went to the desert scouting for muleys. Just finding water was a challenge. Zip for deer although it was 90 degrees at dawn so deer movement is minimal to say the least. -
Arizona Mule Deer
In my opinion, you should enlist the help of a professional team. Dwyane Adams offers free glassing lessons to young hunters. Perhaps you could work something out with him. You obviously have the desire to learn and people respond well to that. Guides are relatively cheap in AZ because it's all... -
AZ Trail Cam Pics
Lol. Too funny! It's a fifty pound salt block cut in half. The fifty pounder is too heavy to pack and a half lasts long enough. -

Thank you for the positive comments. Here are a few more of the smaller ones. These were taken in the Williams area. During the seven day rifle season last Nov./December we received a ton of snowfall on top of about six inches of rain the previous day. The blanket of snow prevented the mud from... -

Tell me about your .300 Weatherby magnum
You will love that gun. With a muzzle break it kicks less than my '06. My last elk dropped dead in his tracks at 640 yards. It's amazing how accurate you can get with the Weatherby brand. I bought mine from a family friend. Here in AZ there's lots of red lava rock which makes tracking a wounded... -

Welcome to HuntTalk. Did you guys hunt all fourteen days? What were the weather conditions like for your hunt? Did you have any luck hunting water? -
Arizona is burning; what does that mean for AZ Tag holders?
This year I applied for the late season Kaibab tag so the deer will be below the burn in that season. Last year the area on fire held lower deer numbers than further south. In my opinion, the impact of the fire on 12AW will be minimal this year and will help the unit going forward for obvious...- Setcams4u

Elk Bedding Question
In my experience, bull elk love bedding under rim rock cliffs (from Montana to Arizona). -
Moon phase and travel logistics on scouting Mule Deer
Interesting question. In my opinion, moon phases do effect the behavior of animals and humans. Why are Emergency Hospitals so slammed on the night of a full moon? Because people feel restless and have trouble sleeping and are generally more likely to go outside and be active. As a test I began... -

Free offer to help HTers with their e-scouting - nothing but feedback in return - so I can practice.
Cool offer. Personally, I get where you're coming from with wanting to sharpen your skills. You must enjoy escouting. That's what I'm doing setting trail cameras for other hunters. Basically, my fee covers my travel expenses, the occasional speeding ticket and tire repairs. Just like you I have... -
AZ Unit 6a - Late Archery - First Elk Tag
You picked the right place. It's going to be an awesome trip. Unit 6A is loaded with elk and you'll have it practically to yourselves. Just ghost around the forest and listen for bugles. Remember that old saying about taking on your first day which you would on the last. Seize every opportunity... -
Coues Deer in Southern Arizona
Cool pictures. There's a guide in the Kaibab who offers a course in glassing. It sounds a lot like what you're offering. Very valuable information for a first time coues deer hunter. Good luck and keep posting those cool pics!! -
AZ Unit 6a - Late Archery - First Elk Tag
Here's a random camera in Unit 8 I just picked up. Lots of these younger age class bulls around. This was a cheap camera so the date is European Day/ Month/ Year -
AZ Unit 6a - Late Archery - First Elk Tag
Congrats on your tag. It's shaping up to be a fantastic year for antler growth. Do you have any elk hunting experience? Last year I helped two late archers in separate units and both found bulls bugling with cows during the late archery season. The biggest wild card for you will be weather. It... -
Best Western State to Move to
You should consider Arizona. It has the most public land of any state in the lower 48. Booming economy in Phoenix. And some of the best hunting in the west. I grew up in Montana. Arizona is where it's at for me!- Setcams4u
