You're welcome to message me on my phone . 435-216-8126. I do not see any PM from you . Though for whatever reason I'm having to reset my login password everytime I visit this Site ? Kinda weird !

Yes , I could always secretly provide intell on Bucks , but I won't be . I have a whole different purpose in doing what I'm doing .

I do not have a Tag . The way the system is now , I'll likely never be able to draw that Tag ! I've been going out there regularly for over 30 years ! It's all out of Passion ! I know a few people who have Tags and have spoken to a few who have Tags . And I will not provide anyone any detailed...

I've spent several days on 13b this Summer as I always have been for over 30 years . The first Buck the Bundys killed this year , that Bucks location , where it was killed , received the least amount of precipitation than anywhere else on the Arizona Strip! That should give everyone an idea what...

According to Federal law , 14 days on public lands . I have always checked my Trailcameras no later than 14 days just for that reason alone .

Yes you can , anyone can , unless you happen to plan on Hunting on that Unit . If I Draw a 13a Archery Tag this year (cross my fingers I do) i can still set cameras on 13b , not 13a ! Hence , I am only setting Cameras on 13b this year !!

I have collaborated with the BLM Biologists in the past on several occasions. My Step Dad retired as a Biologist and my collaboration began about 30 years ago when I was only 12 years old , volunteering doing Surveys on different reptiles . Tortoise , Gila Monster , Mountain King Snake etc ...

One thing I've recently learned is that not only is AZGFD enforcing the Laws , so is the Feds , when it comes down to Trailcameras being placed on Federal Lands . This has compelled me to get a Research Permit with the collaboration with the BLM Biologists. We created a contract that enables...

What ever came of the July 27th Court hearing ?

Here is the great news ! Just because you can't use Cameras on a Unit you have a tag for , doesn't mean you cannot use your Camera anywhere else . If I'm successful drawing the Tag for 13b this year , I'll be glad to put my Cameras away or set my Cameras only on 13a . However , for what I'm...

Feel free to give me a call man , id be glad to dial you in on success . 435-216-8126 Mike Foote

One of my exact points exactly !! I remember just 10 years ago we would debate who the Great Mule Deer and Great Bull Elk Outfitters were . Now when someone asks me who I would recommend them to , to Hunt the Arizona Strip , its like playing Mr Match Maker ... whats your personality like , are...

That is true. Why ? Because that's a whole different ball game sort of speak ! There emphasis is eliminating congestion to prevent Hunter to Hunter conflict and Fair Chase . There is about a 90% chance an individual wouldn't be pursuing and then harvesting an animal without the Assistance of...

Glad they are . I've been pushing this for 6 years ! I provided AZGFD information thats shows that 90% of the Bucks killed were as a result of Aid or Assistance via use of Trailcameras. Every year on the Arizona Strip and other Units , Hunter to Hunter conflicts are getting worse , congestion...

Its been a long time since I've posted here . Likely that my last post was regarding this same topic . I've been pushing for this Ban for 6 years when I started to recognize the trends that were as a result of Trail Camera use . Its gotten way out of control . I've been using them and will be...

[email protected] this is a direct email to provide your opinion !

Areas where I can almost guarantee you being successful in killing one of these pigs is Tweeds point . These pigs love eating the grasses that have been taking over areas from wildfires . I'm out there regularly , and yourself and a friend could just walk along each side of the deep...

Very unique for sure ! At least they are thinking outside the box and have initiated something different than anything else out there . I've created a plan thats even better ;) !!!!

BOHNTR : precisely ! There is no other Hunting Unit that consistently produces B&C Bucks like the Arizona Strip Units 13a or 13b . Going into this year , I personally know 6 Droptine Bucks , 2 of which were Double Droppers last year scoring up to 240" . The Kaibab certainly has almost as great...

In my 27 years of experience on 13b , it doesn't matter where you're gonna be, there are Deer there . Whether the area holds Higher/Lower concentrations of Deer is the question . Anybody can point you in the direction where there will be Deer/Bucks. My advice is pick a specific region or 2 ...

Congrats on the AZ Strip Tag ! So many Giant Bucks on the AZ Strip this year it's like a repeat of 2010 . Good luck to ya !

To my knowledge and documents , there is a little over 3 dozen water sources that nobody else besides myself , even know about , or if they are aware of there locations they just don't bother to put forth the time and crazy hiking to get into these locations . There is a ton of land that is...

I just use Mesowest .... it won't provide you annual precip. however if there are storms that day in any vicinity it will give you accurate current precip totals up too 24 hrs .

There is always Bucks in that Unit year round . locate the Water Sources and get some scouting in you'll turn up something worth shooting ! Especially this year !!!

Regulation of Cameras placed at only 1/4 mile from a water source will only promote other problems . One problem that was suggested by one of the Managers is that you'd likely be seeing even more cameras , only they'd be spread out all over the place setting a perimeter around a Water Source ...

I forgot to mention . There will not be a complete Ban on Trail Cameras due to the overall popularity of the Cameras and different uses or purposes at which they are being used for and it's very unlikely of prohibiting the uses on Water sources because one, thats not the problem and two a lot of...

azhuntin : is 100% correct . One of the members here I helped out in 2013 providing Him maps , pics of Bucks etc in a few locations . He went to Check some of his cameras and one of the Guides were trying to prevent Him from Checking His cameras by blocking the main access to the whole Mountain...

Thanks Buckhorn ! I'll be doing one more update likely Sunday . Pretty incredible data and #'s . And of course throw in another boring picture of a Giant Buck .

Going about it the way you are doing is not the proper way of addressing such an issue . I'm out there on a regular basis with a whole different agenda . Yes I do search for those Giant Muleys but my primary objective is getting #'s on Mountain Lions and reporting info to Local Biologists ...

call me : 435-216-8126 . If this is something you sincerely experienced , well it certainly isn't tolerated thats for sure . I have some info for ya . Mike.

Another Rain Storm pounding the Arizona Strip , putting down as much as 3/4" of rain so far !! This is the 15th Storm since April 25th !!

Don Martin ... if you get your AZ Strip Tag , I'll tag along and provide some extra eye's !

CAelknuts : Good luck on the Draw man !! You at least have a decent chance . My wording was " It's about that time to put in for the Applications" basically meaning it's finally here !!!!! Though when I went to there Website last Week it was down . I just put in this Morning even though my...

Good luck on the Draw John ! Hope you get your Tag !

It's about that time to put in your Arizona Applications . So providing an additional update on current conditions . The stars have aligned oh so perfectly for this season. The year 2010 was about as good as it gets . This year will be just as good if not even better than 2010 . 2010 was the...

Thanks AZHUNTING : It's funny buckhorn mentions the waterline . Ironically this is a location I caught Mexicans tapping into the waterline to feed it to a Marijuana Grow site 3/4 a mile down stream . They didn't notice my Camera 30' away up in the tree . There were 4 Mexicans all packing Rifles...

buckhorn : Thats your opinion man , you have all rights to it . The Buck was actually in the Mid/upper 220's before busting off the Droptine's . This pic of the Buck was taken early July by the way , at a time when it was far from done growing .

Gator: The Buck in the posted picture was unfortunately Harvested . The individual Hunter was not even aware of the Buck . He happened to have a streak of luck on his side when He was road hunting the Buck was 35 yards on the side of the road . I recently provided the Hunter and MC some Trailcam...

YBO: sent ya a pm .

Do you like Giant Muley Bucks ? This year on the AZ Strip undoubtedly will be a great year now that we've had 5 days of rain in less than 2 Weeks !! Last season was a great year yet last year we did not receive this kind of Precipitation in the month of May ! Some area has received almost 3" of...
