Heck ya man! Congrats on a nice bull!

Looks like they are all bought out. I know somebody that purchased on at 12:01am Thursday morning and there had already been 1,000 tags processed when he purchased his permit. I didn't hear of any complaints with the processing so I'm assuming all went smooth.

How'd your hunt go? I haven't ever hunted the muzzeloader elk hunt so didn't have any advice to give. Bummer nobody else chimed in.

Great buck. Congrats on the kill! Even more impressive it was with a bow. Good job.

These are what I am going to try first. I should get them by Friday and will be shooting them next weekend.

I definitely will. The videos I’ve seen, they look pretty cool to shoot.

Thanks for the info. I am going to pick up a couple different brands and see what I like best.

For those of you who shoot lighted nocks, is there a preference you have found that you like one brand over the other? Is there a noticeable drop at longer distance (50+ yards)? I am thinking on switching to a lighted nock for hunting this season but was just curious what some you have...

Anybody else have a hunt starting this Friday? I have one in 43/44AB. Finally, we will have some good weather for the desert. Still seeing some bucks with velvet which is not uncommon but most are usually hard horned by now. I’ll share a few I’ve seen recently. Can’t wait to get out there.

AZ mule deer.

This is in the southwest portion of Arizona. The deer in Kaibab/Strip and mountains tend to be a little ahead of the desert bucks. Our deer will usually start stripping velvet October 15-Early November.
