Snapshot

It was a beautiful fall morning in the mountains. I was perched high on a ridge, glassing the far side of the canyon in the growing light. I could make out the forms of 3 nice bucks feeding their way along the hillside. A noise coming up the canyon caught my attention. It was an obnoxious whirring sound. I could see the black drone flying up the canyon, and of coarse it had a go-pro camera attached. The Bucks jerked their heads up and looked towards the source of the noise, and then they bolted. Seeking escape over the ridge line. My morning hunt had just been ruined by some jackwagon hunter with a drone. Someone who didn't have the fortitude to get out in the hills and use their eyes, and feet to find the game. God forbid if someone actually had to do a little leg work, and earn their kill without the aid of flying machines. As the drone hovered around the canyon, I jacked a round into the chamber, took aim, and slowly pulled the trigger....... You just can't please some folks.

That's true. But as hunters, and ethically minded sportsman, all we have to do is, "Just say no". There is already too much spying,and surveillance in this country. The great outdoors is a place to get away from all of that.

I hope they are outlawed

You need a girl in a Bikini holding your lock box. They always grab my attention. Logo #2

Kitties gotta get past Utah first. No easy feat. You are right. I almost forgot about the Utah game. WIldcats blowout Utah, 42-10 See you pitchforks next week.

Heck yeah. Nice bull on a tough hunt. I wouldn't pass him up either. I had a late Archery bull hunt in 2009, in unit 27. I came close, but no cigar. I learned alot about the Bull migration that time of year, and will be better prepared if I ever draw again. I heard, out of the 25 permits, only one guy scored on my hunt.

You all act like "Hybrid" is some kind of dirty 4 letter word. I said it looked like a hybrid because of the split forks, which is sometimes common with hybrid deer. The statement had nothing to do with the score of the rack. It's an outstanding trophy that anyone would be proud of.

Was wondering how long it'd take for someone to mention hybrid Is that a good or bad thing If it was a hybrid, I think it would be that much more awesome, and unique, because of the rarity. Either way it is a great rack

Brute of a deer. Antlers look hybrid.

Waldo is down at Pub having a beer. I saw that spot in the bush, and I didn't give it second look

Lot of games won and lost by kickers. At the end of the day, the numbers on the scoreboard are all that matters

Dang....That deer is an absolute freak. I've never really had a problem with buck fever, but if that thing walked under my stand, I think my knee's would be knockin.!

I can't see anything without my binoculars

Exciting win for the Wildcats yesterday. Keep that momentum going for our game against Casa Grande North next week.. Booyah!

Very nice of you to rescue and feed it.

Maybe....

Illegal aliens are poaching America.

I believe there is a darker side of the Ferguson issue....(pardon the pun). There is someone higher up in the food chain fanning the flames of hatred. I doubt it would even make the headlines if the officer was a black cop. I have seen a growing hostility, and lack of respect, by certain race of our society. I saw it first hand in a Circle K the other day. I firmly believe that that the lawlessness, and disrespect towards this country by our current President has emboldened sub cultures across the entire spectrum ,into what we are seeing today. Things will come to boil, after Obama gives us all the middle finger, and uses executive action for Amnesty. Ferguson is just the tip of the iceberg. If Officer Wilson is guilty, he will get what's coming to him. If not, these foolish Ferguson thugs need to back the heck off.

This is not a political rant, but a compilation of 20 big business that are "Anti Gun". I urge all hunters and gun owners, to boycott these businesses, and any others like them. Take a stand America. http://buzzpo.com/20-huge-companies-want-take-guns/

Have faith. I have a feeling that Obamacare will have the same ending as the DODO bird.........it may take a few years!

No one will take you up on it this year As I said earlier, ASU is the Wildcats nemesis lately, and I'm not a betting man. Some good pre-game banter between rivals is always fun.

My Med's must be working, if I'm annoying the ASU crowd. In all fairness, we will just call ASU the champs of the NIT Bowl Tis the season !
