    good weekend

    Nice relaxing trip huh? I think the new Binos were the main reason! Thanks for reminding us, hunting is not the only reason to go out and enjoy the wilderness. So tell us more about the Binos! Comparison to...

    GOOD BYE

    GMM Sorry to see you go. I know we have had a couple threads take off on a different, more political direction, however the vast majority of the threads and topics are related to hunting and Coues Deer. I think anyone would be hard pressed to find a better overall group of people in any forum, anywhere on the net. It is hard to get anything 100% and I welcome some variety. That said, it is your choice, and everyone is not going to agree with everyone else, but I for 1, do hope you would reconsider and stop back from time to time! Thanks for your input.

    Coues Hunt

    That's a great story with many lessons for all of us. Seasoned hunters and newbies alike can learn from this tale. Pictures from magazines as reference for shot placement are ideal for 1st timeres and it was a smart thing to do. Congratulations to all involved (especially Audra)

    33 Coues

    Holey Smokes! that guy has some mass! I didn't know that there was a nuclear waste dump in 31. I Can't think of anything else that would give em that kind of diameter! Congratulations!

    31 produces again

    Nice buck Dave. I know what you mean about takin help whenever you can. Unlike you though, my wife would not be the helper on a hunt.

    Coues Hunt

    Well Good Luck to you on finding that buck or a bigger one. Thanks for the update and pictures. What unit are you hunting in?
  11. I saw onther open letter like that one that George Bush was taking the "blame" for the Hurricane and the Fed Response. Boiled down to Yeah, it's my fault you people in New Orleans ignored the week long warnings, the mandatory evacuation order, you stay and loot, you shoot at reliefe workers and act like animals in the absence of law. Yup, even someone else has to take the blame for the new orleans residents stupidity. Oil copmpanies try to come off as the good good guys cause they inflated the price to avoid shortages. Yeah, right.. Now the liberal lawmakers want their cut in windfall profit taxes. Guess what, That will not help the average American! Only the porkbarrel spenders in washington. All we can do is vote the bums out and cut our consumption to help ourselves. Later

    Deer Bating?

    I think Grizzly means there are grey areas, and if you read between the lines ( ) you can find something that is useable as a substitute for bait.

    Poll

    to her too! Ernesto, Isn't that one of the things your wife likes you to say to her?
  14. I am planning for my Dec Hunt, and right now I think I am going to hold out for a nice buck! 100" is nice but one with big body and antler character. For many of us, the 100 inchers should be achieved this year with all the early success due to the large rainfall this year. Here's hoping you all get about 10 inches more antler than you wanted.

    Database errors

    Okie Dokie... Is this something that Stanley or Ernesto can cover while you are away, or should we just email the info to you? By the way... Good Luck on your hunt!

    A Big NM Bull

    That bull was a real monster. Close to 1000lbs? And you have to wonder what happened to his other side. All in all I would say that bull wasn't half bad Great story and so sorry, I couldn't resist. Congratulations and thanks for posting

    A NM Bear

    That is a nice Bear. 90lbs on the hide? He has to be in the 400+lb range. Is that his first bear? Hope not cause it will be tough to beat! congratulations

    an apology

    Whoa... now Casey back up the chuck wagon... Took me a few years to learn this secret, and I will share it with you Life is really pretty easy, It's the lessons we learn that are a Bear! I am a charter member of the Lessin lernin academy so I feel your pain. Any way, I got out my law book ( the world acording to dorf) and it says right here on page 125674 that most any judge might give you 5 years hard labor for whatever it was that you did. It also Sounds like most folks on the board will suspend that sentence and credit you for lesson learned. Kudos to ya dude! I think the best way to get to feeling better was to do what you did, get it out in the open, and that took guts and smarts. Good Luck

    Norm Pint

    I did not know Norm but he sounds like the kind of guy we will all miss, whether we knew him or not. Folks like him are always giving, helping, mentoring, and doin whatever it takes to make things better for the next guy. It sounds like he got lots of joy out of experiencing things and sharing them with others. Rest In Peace Norm.
  20. Great summary and nice change of pace Ernest. Good Luck on your hunt!

    muzzel brake

    I seriously considered adding a brake to my 300 win mag, but many of my shots are from a prone position. The brake is LOUD and the gas charges out the ports so loose dirt and debris flys up everywhere too. It would be hard to take a 2nd shot if need be when you got sand in your eyes. I passed on the brake and put on a Pachmeyer recoil pad. my .02 worth

    Best time to glass

    Hunting season is the best time to glass! I agree that AM and PM are best but I have often found deer midday as Ernesto said. Just stay out as long as you can, and glue the binoculars to your eyes, you will do better in Dec. 24a is a great unit. I will be in 24b just across the highway in Dec also. Good Luck!

    Illegals on your Hunt!!

    Scottyboy, Your BP team is our only protection. Sorry to say you have a tough nut to crack. Thank You for trying to do your important jobs. I know you do the best you can, and I pray for your safety in doing so. Be Safe out there. Sorry, but No one ever accused me of being politically correct, and I know these posts are controversial I just need to ignore them like I do CHD, but we must acknowledge this serious problem or we are no better than the politicians. Yes. I do have strong opinions on this topic, and some might even try to call me racist. Anytime someone says things like this, the left will blast you with the racist label but someone has to say it. Heck, I am from AZ and enjoy a lot of the sonoran heritage and people and I have friends who I respect from a variety of heritages and cultures. One of them is even here legally from mexico with Legal documents! Now I won't say he feels exactly the same way I do, about illegal immigration, but he thinks everyone should be here legally or not at all. He says most legal mexican immigrants feel the same. Hmmmm? Anyway you slice it; UDA (Un-documented Aliens) "Undocumented" is just a way to make people "feel" better but it is still ILLEGAL. Finally, I do not support a "Merger" with any country that cannot take care of it's own people. There are an estimated 11 million+ illegal immigrants in the US Right now with the majority being from mexico. Does not sound like thye are a good candidate for merger with anyone. Az is also estimated to be more than 50% hispanic in the next 10-15 years. Someting needs to be done besides granting amnesty or merging with the invader. Soapbox put away. Good night. God Bless everyone in need, and in this country Legal or not, and help us to respect and protect each other as you teach us to. Give us strength and Protect our guardians on the border and in the war on terrorism across the globe. Help me to think before I speak and act before I react. Amen

    Illegals on your Hunt!!

    I agree, Everyone be carfull! I never thought Arizona or the US would be more hispanic than anglo or that anyone would have to be so worried for thier own safety from Illegal invaders of our country. There is a legal way to immigrate to our country, and these people do not care to do it legal. What makes us think they will follow any other US laws? Sad state of afffairs when the "state" does not use its full resources to protect it's citizens or its borders from invaders. I know that the BP agents are out there every day doing what they can to stem the tide, but it is like trying to stop a flood by standing in the river with 20 of your friends as it approaches. Many Many of the illegals are here just to make a living. But many of them are here to deal drugs, transport human cargo and subvert the US systems. I express the belief that if the borders were CLOSED and all illegals were not allowed in the country Illegally, our problems with crime, poor education, and welfare would be much less. Call me insensitive to their plight if you want, but this country cannot be the savior of every third world country person with no question. Also Call me an American.
