Well after at least 10 years AZGFD finally let me draw a MUZZLE-LOADER Cow Elk tag in a pretty decent area, unit 8. AND....it's 09-28 thru 10-4 so I can follow the herd by the bugling!!
I'm pretty stoked. My boy didn't draw again so will be splitting at least in half and maybe 1/3's if my newly married daughter wants any (we all split the processing fee). Then when he or the son on law gets drawn I can get me some pay back!
Now the hiking and dieting :cursing: and shooting is for real! I will use either the .54 or .58 hawkin with 70 or 80 gr under prb. I would love to finally get a flint lock cow but my only ones a .50 and I have never shot conicals outta it. I'll be getting them Dutchized this spring. Maybe by the hunt I will be able to post pics or may have to send to one of you guys with a teenager handy LOL
So any one else get lucky?
