Big or Bust

Honest question here. I'm a biologist by training, not deer, but don't know the answers to the below other than my 60+ days in the field in the fall. The last 10 years there have been at least 4 to 5 very bad droughts years and in my opinion from what I've seen in the field, for both deer and elk, the secondary rut, say October for elk and late Jan to mid Feb for deer, sometimes has been just as active or even more avtice as what I will call the primary rut. What happens if now having tons of late calves and fawns which there are, are now mature and not coming into estrus until the "second" cycle which is normal for when they were born. At what point does the "rut" shift a month later and that is the new "norm" based on environmental conditions? Or do they late calves and fawns naturally want to cycle when they are mature at the "primary" rut time due to length of day? There has been significant rut behavior differences in the past 10 years IMHO... Sorry for typos. Typing from phone on top of a mountain.

We are up to about 2.5" in last 24 to 36 hours SW of Tucson...... 1.7" of that came in 45 minutes.

Great job!

I figured this would be a great thread as there appears to be some foodies here. I'll start. Chime in... Homemade pizza from start to finish, spinach pesto is the sauce...

Zero interest in Leupold these days which I wish wasn't the case. Fragile scopes on average...

I accidentally bought too many of these about 45 days ago and my Amazon return window has expired.These are NIB. Battery powered. Great cameras. If you are looking to get come cameras for your home these are them. I'll sell for $150 each, they are usually $200. Tucson area. I have 3 of them. They are the white ones. Thanks -

RIP, great American, family man. Welcome to the left.... Don't watch the video of the shooting. He was dead immediately and didn't feel a thing....

Great job!

I need to start posting food more. I just start eating....

Bomb proof as well. I have that exact scope on all my rimfires...

Half of my rifles have fixed scopes, 6x and 10x. The rest NF variables and a March. Just realize the pros and cons. The SWFA fixed 10 is a good bulletproof option....

I'd destroy 2 bowls of that....

Figured but how garbage, 380s now 340s garbage?

In all seriousness how are the antlers overall looking up there?

Looks rough...grin...

Oh I knew they wouldn't be out yet. Just curious with the state of demand. Good deal...

Wonder if there will be any leftovers...

No. Guy builds them in Mexico and sells them in PHX. I got it delivered a few years ago. Love it. Heavily used too...

Yes.

The once a week mesquite asada for tacos...

Where are you located?

Yes. Not that easy let alone cost effective...

I think you are right in there. Have you cold called some of the big guys and played a dumb customer looking for quotes to gauge? And if you run into a bee situation I know a guy....grin...
