SAN CARLOS ANYONE?

[YOUNG BUCK]

ME AND MY HUNTING POSSE WILL BE HEADING TO THE SAN CARLOS APACHE INDIAN RESERVATION IN AZ. THURSDAY NIGHT TILL TUESDAY. WE WILL BE HUNTING UNIT C. ANYBODY ELSE GOING? ANYBODY HUNT THIS RES. FOR ANY OTHER ANIMALS?

 

[garsrene]

I'll be there too but between the 23rd and 28th due to poor organisation I am still waiting for my archery javi tag!!!!
Unit C is most cover with forest I would take a handgun too many tracks of cougar for me!!!!

 

[YOUNG BUCK]

Yeah it's funny that you should say that because the last time we hunted unit c we had a day old pig carcass drug and then carried away by a big kitty. Never saw it only a drag mark followed by fresh cougar tracks! I've seen fresh track in every zone though. Actually a few years back we were hunting unit A and came across some indians with hounds on a hot trail.
What unit you hunting sebastien?

 

[MULIES4EVER]

I WILL BE THERE THE 22ND THRU THE 28TH. UNIT A.

I AM A LITTLE WORRIED AS I HAVEN'T RECIEVED MY TAG YET EITHER.
IN FACT NOBODY IN MY GROUP HAS.

 

[MULIES4EVER]

LAST YEARS HUNT.

 

[hogwild757]

I'd like to go there, but the wife said go ahead but no elk trip this fall. HMMMMMM

 

[YOUNG BUCK]

MULIES,
HAVE YOU CALLED THE FISH & GAME OFFICE TO CHECK ON YOUR TAGS? MAYBE THEY CAN JUST HOLD ON TO THEM AND YOU CAN PICK THEM UP WHEN YOU GET THERE. THEY'VE DONE THAT FOR US BEFORE.
COOL PIC...THOSE PIGS ARE SO FUN TO HUNT IN THAT COUNTRY. GOOD LUCK I WILL REPORT OUR SUCCESS STORIES WHEN I GET BACK.

 

[YOUNG BUCK]

PWA, ELK OR JAVELINA??? HMMMMM....NOT A TOUGH DECISION THERE! GO GET YOUR BULL!!!

 

[MULIES4EVER]

JUST CALLED BUT THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO CALL BACK IN THE MORNING. I GUESS I WILL TRY TOMORROW. ITS GETTING TOO CLOSE FOR PROBLEMS LIKE THIS. IT STRESSES ME OUT.

I HAD A FULL BODY MOUNT DONE ON THE ONE IN THE PICTURE. IT TURNED OUT GREAT. I TALKED TO MY TAXIDERMIST AND HE SAID HE WOULD DO A HEAD MOUNT FOR ME IF I WANTED TO DO A COUPLE EUROPEAN MOUNT DEER SKULLS FOR HIM IN TRADE. HOPE I GET ONE.

 

[CAhntr]

Mulies, can you post up a pic of the mount?

Eric

 

[YOUNG BUCK]

MULIES, YOU HAVE TO STAY ON THEM OVER THERE. KEEP CALLING AND DON'T WAIT FOR A CALL BACK. LETS JUST SAY THAT THE OFFICE OVER THERE IS NOT A SAMPLE OF WHAT CORPORATE AMERICA IS MODELED AFTER...LOL!!!
I HAVE A 1/2 BODY MOUNT OF ONE COMING OUT OF A ROCK FOUNDATION THAT YOU CAN HANG OR PUT ON A TABLE. PRETTY COOL. I ALSO HAVE ONE AT THE TAXIDERMY NOW, MAKING A RUG OUT OF IT...

 

[MULIES4EVER]

YES I WILL POST A PIC OF THE MOUNT.
YOUNG BUCK, CAN YOU POST UP YOURS?

I FINALLY GOT A HOLD OF THEM YESTERDAY. LET ME GIVE YOU A RUN DOWN OF HOW THIS HAS GONE DOWN.

I GOT ON WEBSITE AND DOWNLOADED AN APPLICATION.
FILLED IT OUT AND FAXED IT THAT DAY.
FOLLOWED UP WITH A CALL TO VERIFY THAT THEY RECIEVED IT AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD GET AN EMAIL CONFIRMATION.

2 WEEKS GO BY WITH NO NOTIFICATION. I CALL AGAIN AND THEY HAVE NO APPLICATION FOR US. I THEN RE-FAX IT AND CALL TO VERIFY RECEIPT. I WAS TOLD THAT MY TAG WOULD BE MAILED AND I WOULD RECIEVE IT IN A WEEK.

2 WEEKS LATER AND NO TAG AND NO CONFIRMATION. I CALL BACK AND SHE SAYS CHECK EMAIL FOR A CONFIRMATION IN 1/2 HOUR.

I CALL BACK THE NEXT DAY AND AND TELL HER NO EMAIL. SHE LAUGHS AND SAYS YOUR TAGS WILL BE HERE FOR YOU TO PICK UP WHEN YOU GET HERE.

IF I GET THERE AND DONT HAVE A TAG SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT.

SORRY THIS HAS BEEN A LITTLE IRRITATING. BUT ANYWAYS HERE IS MY JAVELINA FROM 2006. TOUGH LITTLE CRITTERS.

 

[MULIES4EVER]

YOUNG BUCK I HAD A PRETTY COOL IDEA FOR A HALF MOUNT. I GAVE A LITTLE THOUGHT TO DOING ONE. YOURS SOUNDS REAL NICE AND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT.

MULIES

 

[YOUNG BUCK]

AAAARRRGGHHH...I AM SUPPOSED TO BE THERE NOW, BUT AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT EVERYTHING WENT WRONG ON THURSDAY, THE DAY I WAS GOING TO LEAVE. BETWEEN WORK BEING HAYWIRE TO SAY THE LEAST, MY LAB PUP BEING SENT TO THE ER AND FUNDS NOT COMING THROUGH LIKE THEY WERE PROMISED. I COULDN'T BELIEVE THE CHAIN OF EVENTS THAT TURNED AGAINST ME.
ENOUGH ABOUT THAT, MY HUNTING PARTY MANAGED TO PULL OUT ON TIME AND ARE THERE NOW. SO SO SO JEALOUS!!!
GOOD THING IS WE HUNT UNIT C AND PICK UP OUR TAGS OTC SO AT LEAST I DIDN'T LOOSE OUT ON THAT $$$.
MULIES, I WILL POST A PIC OF MY 1/2 BODY MOUNT ON MONDAY. YOURS IS AWESOME. IT STILL LOOKS VERY ALIVE AND PISSED!!! NICE TROPHY...

 

[YOUNG BUCK]

AND OH YEAH.....THAT OFFICE AND THE STAFF IT EMPLOY'S ARE A FEW ARROWS SHORT OF A "FULL QUIVER" IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN...I WONDER IF THEY HANDLE THE $30,000.00 ELK TAGS THE SAME WAY!!! I BET NOT...

 

[scr83jp]

I had an anterless elk tag for Hilltop filled it . Why are guys shouting if you capitalize every letter it's considered shouting !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ha haa lol!!! sorry for all the shouting, I just find it easier to type that way. Congrats on the Elk. Did you see any monsterbulls on your trip? Also I hear there is Javelina up there (Hilltop) is that true?

 

[MULIES4EVER]

SORRY THE CAPS THING GETS ME ALL THE TIME. I cant get used to lower case. I use caps with work and it just follows thru.

YOUNG BUCK, so sorry to hear about your bad luck. I am having a hard time focusing now and I dont leave untill next sunday. I loved what you said about the elk tags. I guess you dont get jacked around if you spend the big bucks. All the same a little cooperation would be nice.

 

[MULIES4EVER]

Also about the mount. I am looking forward to seeing yours YOUNG BUCK. Mine does look kinda pissed. He wasn't very happy when I stuck him. My taxidermist had never done a javelina before and he gave me a great deal. He only charged me $700.00 and that included the base. He is a great guy who has a lot of experience. here is a full body mtn goat that he just finished.

The reason I would like to see your mount is to decide if I want to do one. It will be in my sons room because this is his first time going with me. That is if I get one.

 

[MULIES4EVER]

Here are a couple more. I guess it is number 17 in the world.
