I did not get drawn. I put in for early season bull in 5B. Oh well, now I have 6 bonus points for next year, and get to go hunt pronghorn on private land up in Wyoming this year.

Congrats!

Arizona is Supposed to be one of the best states for trophy bulls.

I usually just put in for antlerless as I'm just trying to fill my freezer. This was the first time I put in for bull.

I've scouted a 12 mi/2 area pretty hard with good results. I put a few cameras out last weekend and I'm going to pull them Saturday. We'll see what is out there.

Call me if you need extra freezer space....

I can't guaranty it'll keep, I may have to eat some/all, but I'd be willing to try. :elkgrin:

I got my spike on opening day, Friday after Thanksgiving.

Unit 7E, 12:45, 270 yards, Remington 700 30-06, 180 grain Barnes Triple Shok bullet, one shot, double lung. Unlike the handgun story, no "twitching" was involved.....

I shot from above the rock outcropping above my left shoulder across the canyon. He stood there for a few seconds after I shot, then tumbled down the side of the hill he was on.

Note the entrance at 6 o'clock and the exit at 12 o'clock

What are the blaze requirements in AZ? I am not criticizing you, I would like to know just for personal knowledge. Your pics as well as the other thread neither have any blaze. None even laying on the ground, not that it is required for a picture, but usually there is some somewhere.
