Southern Arizona in January is the essence of pure hunting fun. Not sure what I could be doing that time of the year that would give me more pleasure. If I find a better replacement, I'll be filming it.
Part 1 of 7 is now live on YouTube.

I'm subscribed to your channel... Thanks for sharing. I have an upcoming javelina hunt at the end of this month.
James Pepper: There's no law west of Dodge and no God west of the Pecos. Right, Mr. Chisum? John Chisum: Wrong, Mr. Pepper. Because no matter where people go, sooner or later there's the law. And sooner or later they find God's already been there.
How many times have you hiked all over the landscape, blown a stalk or two, only to have a close encounter right near where you parked the truck? Doesn't happen much with elk, at least for me, but with deer it seems to be a common occurrence. You'd think I would start paying attention to that pattern. But, that would imply I am smart enough to pay attention, a fact I disprove on a daily basis.

Part 5 of 7. Sorry that being at Sheep Show this week has these few episodes delayed.
Hard to see it from the footage, but the buck stood up behind a tree that was only 21 yards away. Like always, the doe busted us and for the short time the buck was standing around, he was obscured by brush.
The food is just too good to be a hunting camp.

Randy, with all due respect, I use to really enjoy your hunts, back when they were REAL, back when it was obvious it was for your love of the outdoors and hunting, As Real As It Gets. It was you, and maybe a camera man, and maybe another hunter, at most. Like most hunters you'd give up the state but not telegraph the location. It was real hunting.
Fast forward to today. 17 hunters and telegraph the location, even put it on the internet and advertise it. Nothing real about that. I know a lot of western hunters and not one would do that. Not one.

You use to be one of us...…….
Your judgement of my motives for why I do what I do or to judge/misjudge my love for hunting and conservation is peculiar, given you probably know very little about me and this operation. I doubt you know the time and investment required, with the return being that you wake up everyday and get to do something you love. I doubt very many people would work full-time for twelve years and never take a dime from an endeavor unless it was something they truly loved, as I love hunting and the culture around hunting.
I love what I do and I am blessed to be given the opportunity. My wife and I worked our butts off for the last thirty years allowing me to do this and not need to make a livelihood from it, though it would be great if that ever happened. That allows me to invest time and effort for the causes our platforms are built; hunting, conservation, and public lands.
Being in this situation comes with comments and criticism. I accept that as part of the gig. Yours here being an example. With all due respect, your judgements of me and my motives are given without much understanding of me or my motives.
Best to you.

You will never please everybody in anything you do, that is for certain. I preferred it when you were smaller, like one us. Thats what made your show different. I've never been into big production. But hey, thats just me. I've hunted in AZ and MT this year, with locals, and none are pleased about advertising their public land, easy draw/OTC, honey holes. Understandably! Thats part of the game isn't it? Work your ass off to find critters no one else can find, and keep it secret. Don't think anyone will argue otherwise. But hey, there's a whole segment of hunters who would love the coordinates. I feel you've gravitated from striking a nice balance between locals and dreamers, to selling the farm on locals (my opinion only).
BTW, I surely do not doubt you're one hard working son of gun. I am a CPA and was in public practice for 15 years. I can not image dealing with the hunting and production on top of managing a practice. No way I could/would do it.
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
