THere is no rut, All the elk in AZ have left and gone to other states, Please pass the word along to everybody.. Go hunt Utah, Nevada, and New Mexico...
Now Hullin,
That's no way to treat a fellow statesman. What he meant to say is that the rut will go on in those units as usual. But you will probably have a better chance to hunt out of state in the future for those critters.
Yeah, I figured that 6x that was bugling last Sunday evening in unit 7 was rounding up the rest of the gang and heading over to Kalifornia where they would be safe from nonresident hunters.
You know what, That is exactly what I ment to say, in the years to come there will no longer be any rut... I am personally hopeing that some weather stays away and does not move into the area until the late hunt in 7M and get the rut going nice and heavy around the first of October..
I stand corrected as that's exactly what he meant to say. I had no way of knowing that he has or hopes to have a tag in that unit for the late hunt. There's nothing wrong with a guy hoping for favorable conditions during his hunt.
I can only hope that his real intent was not to tell everybody to go hunt someplace else. God help us if all the states adopt that line of thinking if that was exactly what he meant to say!
You two yanked my chain pretty good! By the way did you guys draw bull or cow tags? Is 7M the unit over there around Mountainaire on east side of freeway?
Bull.. Just No Draws ( Jeff ) has the tag, I will just go along for the ride and help out. Yes 7M is all around Flag, Mountaineer and Kachina Village is in 7M.
