congrats to the kid on the buck...heck of a 1st deer

BASS, whats your opinion on the monarchs, im planning on buying them within this year...i will get them for $245...o plus shipping so prolly $260...but neways tell me how u like them

save up some money buy yourself a decent pair of binos, and it will do all your walking for you

me n bowhunter12 are gonna meet up at the gym...i will try to help him out as much as possible... right on rembrant!

i dunno lake mary...i havent even been so i dunno

im laughing at it...im sure that guy wasnt...wonder what caused that deer to react that way

congrats on the new binos...let us know how they work

thnx for the info...so they dont bounce around like the crooked horn ones...cuz that gets annoying sometime...id def pay for something that wont bounce

i feel bad too i thought it was someone just trying to get info off of us...we go to the same gym...i will talk with him there...hopefully we can lead him to his 1st buck

good idea

thanks for that...cool looking dogs...all the best for your family and new dog

i feel for you...things like those haunt you in your sleep...and sometimes keeps you awake....its redemption tiime

how cute....some nice looking dog...what breed are they?

.270 has it right on...they are burrowin owls' we had them in our nieghborhood a couple years back...they were feisty little devils...my friends dad got attacked by them...for no apparent reason while he was grilling....they ended up being removed by the fish people...and relocated, because they were causing too much trouble. One person even ended up shooting one and got a big fine

those are cool pics...the wildlife here can be funny..they do some wierd things...thnx for the pics....those deer looked hard horned to me

dude dont give up on these areas...it seems like because you havent seen a couple of bucks or even one...then you think it is a bad area...u might be wrong...you just gotta be patient...question?...are you new to hunting?...if you are just remember to practice practice practice with whatever weapon you are using, and your most important tool is your bino...find a place scout it hard...you will be bound to find something...then the rest is up to you...

there ya go eyeguards...thats what we all should of been saying....it doesnt matter about the kill, its the experience that really matters...ive had plenty of unsuccessful hunts but they were some of the best times of my life, and the memories will always be there. Just get out into the woods and hunt...if you dont see a buck then life goes on...u still had the chance to pursue gods beautiful creatures...isnt that enough?...the kill is the ultimate reward, but it doesnt define a successful hunt

josh give it a try it adds a little bit of challenge....hey bill ii want to buy the Smith n Wesson .460....its a big revolver with a lot of range...my uncle just bought one its a nice gun

ive always wanted to do that...even maybe put a stalk on one then using the handgun...fun stuff...what kinda .357 u have?

nice work on getting those shots...man im still amazed at how green some of the areas are getting...nice bucks by the way

what is the 2nd and 4th photo of?...

well...i dont use decoys at all...i really dont know much about that here in az....but my guess is that it wouldnt make that big of a difference. during the rut it might be useful, but during the early and mid hunts i dont think it will be a difference maker. it might spark a little curiosity from a deer, but they aint gonna be all over it...i like to find a good vantage point and glass and it prolly goes the same with plenty of other people...jus glass and locate the deer...i usually wait till they bed down before i will make a stalk...unless you can cut them off while they are on the move. if u wanna still hunt...walk slowly, and try not too make any noise...jus move slowly and stop every 100 yards and wait a few minutes before moving again...it can be effective...but be ready...always use your binos..they are your most important tool...to answer the advantages part i think decoys would be a waist of money especially during the early hunt...i cant see any advantages to that...but the other methods of spot and stalk and still hunting...are good to use, but can be diificult...if u can i would invest in a good treestand and find "your" own honey hole...the key to that is getting out in the woods and putting miles on your boots...jus maybe you will find your own spot...it is always possible...you just got to work for it....good luck on your scouting and hunting trips

im going to the gym everyday...for the next few months...at least i will try to go everyday, Jus curious to what you all do to get in shape...i ride my bike everyday...and lift weights to get ready...i should be getting out hiking with my pack on, but im so busy...i cant get out. plus i dont have a vehicle(im working on it), but im gonna get into the best shape of my life and be the strongest i have been...after the next few months of training. I got to lifetime fitness in gilbert anyone else go there?...

awesome pics...thank god for the rain... awesome to see how green it is....nice buck for sure
