MULEPACKHUNTER

Ya I have both those books as well, very good. His podcast is also my all time favorite. I never miss it. Wish I had television so I could see his shows.

I was leaning the same way a while back for a daily driver, ended up finding a Scion xB 2009 with 19,000 on it and custom wheels. 12,000 cash and we love the heck out of it. Awsome little 30 mpg car with lots of room to boot. Never thought I would like it but it's great. Just bought my daughter a fiat 500 and it's even better than the scion. 2015 used with 13,000 on it and all the top notch upgrades. Paid 11,500 cash and at 37 mpg avrg it's doing awsome. She loves it.

Ok my two cents, I have used several kaytadin and ended up with the msr sweet water. I broke 2 of the hiker pros. As soon as you get anything other than clear water it will clog , with the msr you can clean with brush and continue. It has worked in elk ponds and hoof tracks literally. The msr has a relief valve that spits water when it's getting clogged. The hiker pro sucked the check valve inside itself and ceased to work. My msr has never let me down yet in 3 years of hiking and horse packing trips. Maybe 30 liters of water so far and some brown elk game ponds. I always carry tabs in my filter bag as well just in case.

Even my big 250 had a lockout at the mounting / pivot point that locked the travel.

I would say there are usually ways to pin the motor at the pivot point where it mounts to the transom. This still puts a lot of pressure on the transom. Maybe make a frame that still slides into a female on the back of the trailer and sits on the bottom of the boat but comes back far enough to have a standard support bar with the v in it. As long as you have some angle pcs coming from the frame up toward the back of the boat it should handle the weight. Still want to ha able to remove it though so you don't hit it when loading. Also it will be a pain to mount unde the boat but not too bad.

First of all great job being yourself. I love being different. Funny how at a dinner with suits and ball gowns everyone wants to talk about riding mules in the wilderness, or running a triathlon. My daughter loves to hunt but she does rely on old dad to do all the footwork to get her a tag and plan the hunt. She will saddle and ride her own horse though. The other ladies I know hunt in groups with their husbands or boyfriends and their wives. Mostly cow elk hunts. Just do some networking and help out on other ladies hunts or maybe even put in with other ladies through this site and others. By all means hunt any way you can, also get your story out there when you do, trust that it will inspire others like yourself. Lastly don't go postal and start selling your ex mans stuff or you will have a tuff time making friends. (Inside joke) shouldn't be too tuff to find some interesting characters to help out if you draw a tag of some kind.

My buddies elk hunt last year was one of our best efforts to date, no elk down but we went after it and kept hammering and had a bunch of great moments. That will always be second to my kids javi hunt where they doubled on their first game on their first ever hunts. Both handled themselves and their guns like old pros. They are out of the house already and it brings tears remembering those days. Thanks to max for crossing paths with me and bringing this passion into my life. Not sure I would have ever hunted otherwise. Can't wait to help you glass up and pack out your girls first big game. heck I'll cook up their squirls or rabbits too.

Congrats man, have a great hunt and more than that enjoy the freindship you have. I've always felt ranchers don't want to be bothered, weather it's nasty signs or dead cattle heads on posts I just never got a welcoming feeling around private property. I just go my way and let them alone, too bad cuz I would make a good friend, and I need the occasional hard day of someone else's work to clear the head and soul.

Almost forgot, I have never been anywhere but discount and even though individual locations can suck , if you call around and are reasonable they will work with good customers. I have 7 vehicles on the road and have had 10 in their system. I walked out the door at 1457. With my truck and 2 e rated trailer tires. Well under listed prices. The at 2 were 249.00 each.

Awsome, nice work.

My buddies wife went out for a pee and hasn't come back. Red head 130 lbs of Irish descent. ?

Done

Haha, too many times I didn't have a spotter and wished I did, I run 10-42 and a razor hd 16-48. Works good for backpacking.

Majority wins, thanks guys for the feedback. I went with toyo at 2. Although I was waiting til the last second hoping the new ridge grapplers came out but no one can get them in 18 in yet. Anyway I will update how these do, so far really good in some mud and on street. Super quiet and they eat up some of the bumps. They look sweet too.

I bought it , love the magazine

You could go on gohunt.com , they have landowner tags listed. Could compare pricing.

1500. Was the going rate for a large amount of the land owners a few years back. Just depends on where and when. I did talk to a few ranches that were over 2000.

I went ahead and ordered the true fire hardcore revolution. Be here Monday for a test run.

Nice job , can't wait to see some food plates.

Keep in touch on your plan and we will see if something works out.

What are the dates on that tag, I may have some free days to haul some binos and a spotter down that way if you want some extra eyes?

Oh ok, I was trying to get mine quiet but your sitting on top of the motor so there's no fixing it. There's no room for insulation either so I just don't drive it anymore. Too dang loud

If your trying to reduce noise don't waste your time.

It's a good deal for the money they raise for sure but doesn't sit well with me. I heard a podcast about one of these tags a while back and not only did the client not look or scout or hunt they had 4 different guys sit on the bull for 3 days before the guy showed up to shoot it. I still say I would read and buy the book on the guy who did it himself or even bought it and handed it to some hard working deserving youngster. Way better story But in the end I say keep the money coming in to az. And can't wait to see the next monster these guys find.
