Looks like a "Booner" canidate to me.`

.500 S&W with 6" Compensated barrel. Will take out anything from Alaska to Africa.

Bradshaw mountains?

Nice buck. 95 3/8"

That's not illegal though. Maybe, maybe not. I don't know the fine points of the law on that. But basically the guy sold info on the location of an animal that was hunted, technically guiding without a license since he was paid???? That really wasn't was argued about, it was the whole ethical, unethical, standpoint of what happened. Regardless of the rights and wrongs, you know its not good when it ends up in front of a judge.

Very nice!

This issue caused some very heated debates on some other websites after it happened. The rumor was that one of the area residents had this bull patterned and had it on video and sold that info to the guy with the tag. I don't know the truth to the matter, however, it was heavily argued.

Bad moon on the rise.

G&F would probably consider it baiting, but I certainly don't know for sure. If a bear stumbled across a substance legally placed for deer, it is probably a legal grey area. Maybe a telephone call to G&F might clarify it? B. An individual shall not place substances in a manner intended to attract bears.

I was drawn for the same hunt this year. I saw a nice 160" class buck last year while archery elk hunting. Hope to find him this year if he is still around.

The problem is that everyone has the trail cam thing figured out. Regardless if the people stealing them are unscrupulous hunters, forest service people, or people that know they can make a quick $50-100 on ebay, or whomever. Find a water hole within proximity to any road or trail and you will probably find a trail cam. I would bet that somebody has got it figured out that they can earn extra income by finding and selling trail cams, or maybe the whacko anti's are working overtime.?

Came in the mail today.

definitely looks "sniper"ish. what kind of paint did you use?

I carry the same stuff used to clean my camera lenses, a small eyedrop sized bottle of lense cleaner and a few swatches stashed away in the day pack works for the bino's and riflescope.

I started hunting quail and rabbits in 1973 when my Mom and Dad moved us to Tucson, a man that my Dad knew took us out to unit 37B. My Dad bought me a winchester youth model single shot 20 guage. When I turned 14, after passing the hunters safety course my Dad bought me a remington model 700 in .308, and that thing kicked like a mule to a bony 14 year old. I took my first mule deer 3 years later down in unit 30B after I figured out how to hunt them.

Trying to get the carcass out the front gate would be a little difficult.

If the bank manager was totally wrong for doing what he did(spiteful), and they had no financial reason to freeze your account, I would hire a lawyer and make them pay for what they did. Bank of America is one of the worst banks out there, not that any bank can be considered good

Wac em and stack em.

Good remote country, heck of a hike to get up in there!

Nothin here yet!

This is my Dad (67) and I on our last hunt together in 2005 down in unit 30B, he passed away in the spring of 2006. We hunted together just about every year for 33 years.

I still say someone needs to invent a fake trail cam that has a dye cannister and pepper spray inside that would explode everywhere when tampered with. A picture of that happening would be priceless

I have the Polaris lock and ride mount and Kolpin case its a great set up.

I used to feel that way also. Then 2 years ago I went out and bought a Polaris Sportsman, I am glad I did. Even though I do not use it much during my hunts, I do use it alot to explore roads and trails, or to get to the end of the road and save the wear and tear on my truck. It can be addicting, kind of like a Harley rider on the open road, just that sense of freedom and exploration. Next year I would like to get a side x side so that my wife can have fun with it when we ride, possibly a Polaris Razor. The thing about quads and side x sides is either you like them or you don't and they certainly are expensive.

I have always used Rocky boots. I have a very lightweight pair that I use for most of my hunts, good lugs and ankle support, waterproof.
