    Man, that is one of the saddest posts I have seen in a while. My dogs are family. I am sorry you never had that bond with a good dog.

    That sucks buddy. I have an old man, Winchester, that is 16. I dread the morning I wake up....and he doesn't.

    A3 Golden Boy Jed Larson Convicted of Poaching

    I am glad to hear that just because he "self-reported" his crimes (not an honest mistake), he did not get off with no punishment. But, if his father was part of the crime, I believe he should get his slice of the punishment pie as well. Thanks for the information.

    How Long Do You Glass?

    1st, a good pair of binos and a good tripod are invaluable. I use 10x42s for anything out to about a mile for my quick checks. When picking apart the county, 15x56s. Find something interesting, break out the spotter. Even my 10x42s go on a tripod when glassing. As for time behind the glass, depends on the terrain and time of day. On a 10 day hunt, I can spend from 70 to 100+ hours behind binoculars. So good glass is a must. Eye fatigue will kill your chances of finding game. Anywhere from 30 minutes, to an hour, to 4 hours. Morning/evening first/last light, 30 minutes then move and start over. Mid-morning/early afternoon, 1-2 hours then move. Midday, 3-4 hours, checking every single tree and bush, shadow, canyon, cliff, rock pile, etc. During long glassing sessions, I never look for an animal. I look for parts. I make a fairly quick pass over an area looking for the obvious, then go back over the area, picking it apart. An ear, an antler tip, a tail, legs (vertical lines), a back (horizontal lines), movement, shape, color. Work in a grid pattern. Find a landmark that splits a hillside, like a canyon or tree. Work half the hillside, from top to bottom, overlapping viewing area. Then the other half. This is a view out to about 2 miles of glassable area. Apparently, I have already glassed up something that my daughter is prepping for. Here is a pattern I use. Where I glassed up some deer. 882 yards away. Right at .5 mile. You might only get the shape and color to go by on a bull elk at over a mile away. Then pick out the antler. Wide, lightweight tripods are a must when packing glass too. I use a Manfrotto 290 carbon fiber with a Manfrotto 700 RC2 pan head. Low and wide for sitting, but extends high enough for me to stand too. My son-in-law can use it standing too, and he is 6'0".

    Hide tanning

    Sorry buddy. "Tan my hide" is cowboy for "whoop my butt". And I needed it quite a bit when I was a kid.

    Two Sets of Women's Golf Clubs

    My Aunt, who passed away in January, left me two sets of lady's golf clubs. I have no use for them, so I will give them to anyone who would like them. Located in north central Phx area, near Phx Sportsman's Warehouse. They are not new, and not real high end, but free is free. Great starter sets. If they go to kids, even better.
  17. Weird. I have had no issues mounting my adapter to my Meopta Meostar 15x56s or Meostar S2 20-70x82 spotter. For the 15s, I just run out the eye relief cup. But mine are not angled, they are twist out flat cups.
