Thanks so much - just what I thought ! ??Haven’t been out on the strip personally but in the past week St George and the strip area south of us has been getting hammered every afternoon with the monsoon moisture. All the washes have been running constantly for the last week so there’s plenty of moisture out there now
Could be a Kaibab buckFrom the picture of the buck that was just harvested by Clay Bundys client i would say they have gotten some good growth on the strip
Looking at the vegetation type for the time of year I would say strip buck.Could be a Kaibab buck
No cameras didn’t prevent outfitters from finding two of the biggest bucks on the strip!I wouldn't worry to much if I had a tag. No cameras is going to make them work harder thats a big one there. Unless some ones cheating, Good luck all.....................................BULLL!
It didn't but I bet they had to work harder and He knows that place as good as anyone. And who says some are not still using cameras . Not acusing anyone ,just saying, very hard law to enforce. That will be a issue in coming Years..................BULL!No cameras didn’t prevent outfitters from finding two of the biggest bucks on the strip!
What’s the situation looking like for deer for this fall ? Reports for Kaibab coming in as somewhat good- what about Strip Deer ?-‘anyone been up there looking ? Always interesting
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 to expect elsewhere on the Arizona Strip! I run several Trailcameras out there . This year they've been pretty useless due to the prolonged Monsoon ! But I have gotten some Giants on Camera . But I've also have spent days glassing and have turned up some Giants in excess of 220" to 240" !! I know the Bundys have spent a ton of time out there this season . I really haven't seen anyone else or know of anyone else that has put in the time and work in like the Bundys ! The amount of rain it's received is the most I've seen since 2014 !!! Its unreal ! It received another almost 1/2" on the South end just 2 days ago ! As for the Antler Growth , I believe most have underestimated just how good it really is out there !What’s the situation looking like for deer for this fall ? Reports for Kaibab coming in as somewhat good- what about Strip Deer ?-‘anyone been up there looking ? Always interesting to know.
Thanks !

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 info about the Bucks I'm getting on Camera ! I will be Posting pics or video of these Bucks on my Social Media Accounts , absolutely! But I won't specify there locations etc .Arizona revised statute R12-4-303 - Amended

Hello AZMIGHTYMULIES,
Are we all to presume that you are placing trail cameras for the fun of it? Do you have a tag in this unit, or do you know anyone who does? Are you passing any of the photos or information on to anyone else that has a client, that has a tag?
Just asking for a friend!

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 don't believe in cameras , never used one never will. But if some one doesn't have a tag and feels free to scout and use one ,go for it. however I see your point. He could secretly have a friend He's giving info to or selling it. Thats the big loophole in this. Not accusing him just saying . G&F has no way of proving it.....................BULL!
