A little video from one of my recent camera setups. If you want to skip the part where I talk, go to 2:21. Check out the bomber coues buck on the right side at 10:21 too. And then bear cubs at the end. Thanks for watching.

A highlight reel of my best clips of the mighty mountain lion in Southern Arizona.

This was one of my better coues camera locations. Too far of a drive though so I pulled the camera.

Thanks to all those that watched and commented on the last video I posted on here. I thought you all might enjoy another one of my Arizona trail camera compilations. This spot wasn’t too far from that last video I posted. Of all my videos, I think this one might best show just how many different...

Thankfully with the monsoons the animals don’t have to crowd one waterhole anymore. But man it was fun to check my camera at this spot while it was dry. This was in Southern Arizona and I was using a Browning Recon Force Advantage.

A compilation of mountain lion videos I made. I got all of these cats on trail cameras in Southern Arizona.

A nice looking sow I got bathing on one of my trail cameras here in AZ.

A few predators I got on camera down here in Southern AZ.

I thought you all would enjoy this video I got at one of my coues deer hunting spots. It would be a shame to either have to pull this camera or stop hunting the spot because of a trail camera ban...

I recently got this footage of a young mountain lion sneaking up to my camera. I live in Southern Arizona.

Not sure if y'all have heard of this guy. I met him here in Arizona. He's a trail cam expert down here. Enjoy.

Howdy, In your experience, how do mule deer respond to a fire 4-6 months after it has stopped? Trying to plan a hunt after a big fire in my unit this year. Cheers!

Howdy, Got a friend from out East looking to hunt elk in Wyoming in 2019. He wants to hire a guide, is after something in the 330" range, and is willing to pay around $6,000. He is an experienced outdoorsman and willing to put in the work all day every day for a bull. Anyone have someone...

Howdy, I'm looking at deer hunting area 27 this year. I spoke to a Forest Service employee on the phone, just asking some general questions. She claimed that the entire Bear Wallow Wilderness area burned this summer. I can't find any other source online claiming this. Is this correct? Ozzy

Has anyone hunted deer in either of these areas? I have permission to hunt on 120 acres of private land there. If that isn't fruitful I'm looking at Las Cienegas National Conservation Area. I know there are muleys there, it seems like the buck populations are low. But I'm willing to try it.

I will be a resident applying with 3 points for an early archery hunt. Which unit do you guys like better and why? I am open to other suggestions too. I am not after a trophy unit. Just the chance to call at a bugling bull. Willing to walk 10 miles a day to avoid crowds. Ozzy

Howdy, Well as I wait to see if I drew the strip (ha!), I have begun planning an OTC archery mule deer hunt in Arizona. I have never hunted Arizona or mule deer. I plan on glassing/sitting near water and was looking at unit 27. I am willing to move 10+ miles a day. Do any of you who have bow...

Howdy, Looking for somewhere to shoot my bow indoors in Tucson. I'm getting ready for this fall, but don't want to shoot in 105 degree weather. Ideally the range would allow me to shoot out to 50 yards. Any suggestions? Thanks y'all.

Howdy, I recently moved to Arizona. Due to work, I will miss the fall and winter hunts this year. Thus, I am planning an OTC archery deer hunt in the early season. I am looking for general tips as I have not hunted deer in AZ yet. I would like to: 1. Hunt mule deer, but would shoot a coues if...

Howdy, I am going camping in New Mexico's unit 16B (Gila Wilderness) next week. I was wondering if anyone knew where the elk have been hanging out there lately, because I plan on looking for some sheds. I harvested a bull there last year, so I'm not new to the unit and I know my way around the...

Howdy, I know this is a common thread theme, but I am looking for opinions on the best place for an avid outdoorsman to live. I am from out East, but have lived in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona (military moves). I am addicted to the mountains, the open space, the isolation, and the...

Howdy, I recently moved to AZ from NM for work. I was fortunate to draw a tag and harvest a bull on my first attempt at hunting elk while a resident in NM, so if you have any questions about the Gila area, let me know. That being said, I am still trying to wrap my head around elk hunting here...

Anyone hunted deer there? Going to try this January with a bow. Looks rough, but so was 16B during my last hunt. Thanks!

I am heading down to the Gila Wilderness for the second rifle hunt. Wondering how everyone in that neck of the woods did this past week? Cheers, Ozzy

Howdy, I am new to New Mexico, moved here last year with the military. I drew 16B/22 late rifle elk. Anyone have any experiences there that they care to share? I scouted it some this weekend. I know it's rough, but that's about it so far. I plan on having horses for the pack out if I am lucky...

Still after my first elk tag, but looking forward to some shed hunting in a couple months. I currently live in ABQ. Anyone care to share some decent spots to look for sheds in NM? Thanks, Mike

Hello all, I will be moving to Tucson next summer for work. Curious about what is available OTC and what I can reasonably expect to draw if I put in as a resident. I am primarily interested in big game. Would love to hunt coues deer, mule deer, elk, or antelope. Any advice? Thanks! Michael

Howdy, I am moving to Albuquerque for work next week. I didn't put in for any draws because at the time I had no idea when I would be moving there (the military doesn't allow for much long term planning). Does anyone know of any good contacts or websites to browse for landowner tags? I am...

LAST EDITED ON Sep-17-16 AT 08:34PM (MST)[p]Update: Didn't mean to put this in the mule deer section. Moving it to appropriate location.

I am moving to Albuquerque, NM in September for 8 months of training for the Air Force. Taking an elk is high on my hunting bucket list. Seeing as I'll be so close to Colorado, I am thinking about driving up there and doing a DIY hunt in October or November. I've never been elk hunting. Right...

Hello, I will be moving to Davis Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson next year. I will be there about 2-3 years. I love to hunt (mostly big game), but I am from out East and have no experience hunting out West. I am thrilled about being able to do some Western hunting and I am looking for general...

Howdy. I'm new to the forum. I will be moving to Albuquerque for a few months here soon and was wondering about the hunting opportunities. It looks like it's mostly draws for all species. I'm in the military so although I won't be there long, I think I can get resident rates while I'm there...
