Big or Bust

So about like the 2009-2010 swine flu based on those numbers, when life went on normally, nothing was cancelled, we got over it and all went forward? Big difference is who was president at that time relative to now. Gonna be a really good buying opportunity in a few months.

Seriously?

My wife has been slaying elk with her 7-08 and 140 Etips for a bit now at ranges from 200-400 yards. MV only 2700. Not a single elk went more than 50 yards and all on ground in seconds. All exits too.

Those are everywhere. And in the middle of nowhere usually accompanied by gallons of water waiting for passerbys...

Glad you made it out...

What the heck is going on? Would you prefer the estimate first or a stretcher rescue, for clarity?

Laffin'.... Butt sex jokes? Laffin'. All "credibility" of yours is now gone. I was genuinely wanting a conversation as I happen to have a few degrees too in the field since you seem to think that's important... You are indeed the classic liberal pro-wolf dude along with the passive agressiveness.... All emotion. I'm just trying to have a conversation with you. How'd you like the SOTU address?

I was going to ask some similar questions but I was going to wait on a few more posts... Grin....

This, and grazing.... How are you able to separate this out the predator analysis based on all the studies which you have cited?

Thanks. The article is a large literature review , not really a study, which doesn't discuss grazing which at least in AZ is huuuuge..... Nor does it list where the literature reviewed did their own studies, some or most of which were in Europe who likely has significant differences in hunting pressure let alone other differences not known (grazing, etc.). Plus the article appears to conclude its data with wolves and bear predation, not just wolves although it does suggest bears are likely secondary. Is this the study you are basing your comment on that wolves are solely responsible for riparian degradation?

Up for Buster... Care to comment?

Absense of apex predators is the absolute cause of damage to riparian areas? Oh this could be rich....

No. Fake news. That crash was in Afghanistan.... Dudes on the ground couldn't see Kobe's chopper above them. Way too foggy. It hit hard but that video ain't it. Been debunked already....

Howdy guys - I'm looking for a beater Remington 700 SA, only .473 bolt face (.243, .260, 7-08, .308)..... Any outsized youth rifles or safe queens are perfect. Factory everything is fine. Shoot me a PM please - thanks!

Muzzleloader...

Super bucks. Congrats.

Not trying to say you were gonna upgrade bro. Just brainstorming on your lack of info for folks to try to find your deer and the motivations behind it. One of which is covering up your hunting area. I get it. But just be clear. Sorry for insinuating.

I am cool bro. I'm not an asshole as I don't think you are even though likely tons of folks on here think you are. You tell it like it is. Like I am right now. I really hope you find him or someone does. Sincerely.

I'll back away from this thread now. Goodness. Have fun. Hope you find him, sincerely.....

Don't be a victim now, come on. Especially you.

I'm not trying to be rude bro. I'm just saying I would get out and not be on this forum if you really wanted to find him. Bro, with all due respect, you post significantly more dickish things on this forum almost weekly than what I just did which is pretty common sensical. If you wanted him truly found you'd post a lot more info or at least I would. If you want to save your hunting spot I get it but I don't wanna impose my ethics on you as you said earlier....

If you want someone to find a random deer in the state of Arizona, I'd suggest giving a bit more info on where you were so the 200 people that see your post can have a bit of a clue on helping you find your deer unless you don't want him found so you can have a chance to do better this fall. Not trying to impose my ethics on you earlier. Everyone views things differently....

Amen ...I didn't know what the buck was until I walked up to him. What I get for hunting solo. I only passed 5 bucks bigger than him that day...😯😬

All good. I glassed that shed up and had to go back for it as I was busy packing this guy out.

I'd keep hunting for the deer hit in the face with a broken head in him and hope I find him. Personally, I'd punch my AZ 2020 regardless.... Good luck finding him trphyhntr. Stuff like that happens in the archery game...
