    New pack...don't know where to start.

    Personally, I like the ALPS Outdoorz Commander external-frame packframe. My hunting clients seem to prefer it, as well. Great pack for a great price, actually.

    Arizona draw results

    You should think about changing things up so you can actually kill a trophy bull, instead of accruing points every year.

    No, it's the new permit allocation system that AZG&F is now using to even out big game tag allocations. I don't think GoHunt has figured that out, yet (lol).

    small spotter and binos??

    I agree with Ringo, except for the angled eyepiece part of his post. But anyway, I carry a 10x binocular and a 20x binocular, and a 20-60x spotting scope, plus two tripods; a tripod for the 20x binos and a tripod for the spotting scope. Yes, optics are heavy, but well worth carrying.

    Non-resident applicants are only allowed "up to 10%" of the overall allocation. Therefore, non-resident applicants and resident applicants are drawn simultaneously, not separately.

    How many is too many

    Those types are generally the auction tag purchasers and governor's tag recipients. Case in point, I recently had a guy contact me about a hunt. He asked how many trail cameras I deploy full-time and how many unemployed highschool kids I had combing the hills.

    Cards will be charged over the course of the next five days, but it'll be pretty much over by Sunday. However, some charges won't appear on credit statements till early next week.

    dall sheep 2020 advice

    Ice axe, external-frame packframe and good mule deer or elk hunting type boots. Try to keep your overall gear weight under 35 lbs. Expect BAD weather in August. Bring two paperback novels. Expect to not see a lot of sheep, but if your outfitter is honest, expect to see some rams.

    Question for the back country camp guys

    The only place that I worry about having something taken from me, such as camp gear, my four-wheel-drive, or even my life, are in those border units between Yuma and Nogales. The Sinaloan Cartel is thick in there.

    good luck Ak hunters

    A pretty nice 7 year old ram was brought in yesterday. I heard of another one being taken this past week, as well. That's two, so far, that I know of.

    Sheep Hunt Just Turned Solo

    I miss that, when I use to exclusively hunt solo. Those were the best hunts.

    How far can you hear bugles?

    Depends on topography and vegetation and atmospheric conditions and weather, and which way you're facing and which way a bull is facing. Anywhere from about 100 yards (or less) to a couple miles (or more).

    Flying and gear

    It's a non-issue. Stop worrying. You're fine.

    Flying and gear

    Yeah, the airlines are really good. None of my clients have ever lost anything and I've never lost anything. On rare, rare occasions, there's been slight couple-hours or few-hours delays, but nothing ever permanently lost. The airlines are pretty darn good at keeping track of stuff and if it is...
