  1. weston- good looking tattoo. He has a couple tattoos of elk/wildlife on his IG account that are super impressive if anyone knows how to post the pics here. i dont know how.

     

    mt cat- thanks for the heads up. might have to check it out.


  2. Anyone got any recommendations for a good experienced tattoo artist? Id like to get some done. I was excited to get some work done a couple years ago but the artist became flakey so I backed out. Maybe a good thing in the long run. If anyone has recommendations and some pics lets see them. Thanks


  3. I have a couple backpacks that Id like to add zippered pockets and couple other things to them. I have gone to a local seamstress in chandler for this once before and although she did end up doing what I asked I dont think she was to thrilled about it being outside of your typical line of work. Does anyone have any reccomendations on anyone local to the Phoenix area that does this kind of work?


  4. Last year was my first time hunting New Mexico. I drew a unit 23 archery Mule deer tag. Long story short...Had some help from a few members here(thank you). I also made several scouting trips glassing, learning the unit/roads and putting out/checking cameras. I narrowed it down to a few select areas. Unfortunately, the only opportunities I had during my hunt were coues deer. Regardless I had a great time.

     

    New Mexico-1 Me-0

     

    This year I decided on unit 15 because of the any deer tag. Ive done the desk scouting/research on the computer and going on my first trip next week. I was looking to see if anyone has hunted in this unit before and has any experiences/advice that they would like to share. So far I have found that most people speak of good elk hunting, roads everywhere and at one point outfitters/guides were out of control.

  5. I carry a Sig 10mm and finding the best place to carry it has always been an issue. I got a leather otw belt holster and ran the strap on the hip belt of my icon pro 3200 through the loops. Worked really well but like said above if i dropped my pack, no more pistol. One thing I wear and never take off is my Alaska guide creations Bino Harness. I decided to try and run the strap that goes around your ribs through the holster loops. At first i thought it would be uncomfortable but I actually like it and forgets its there sometimes.


  6. I have the jacket and pant. I feel like for the price point it will serve the purpose when that time comes. It's super light packs down well and is always in my pack as protection from the unexpected rain storm. It is lightweight but I'd say the quality is there for what it is. I definately it would get damaged is blasting through thick brush but I don't intend on doing that if its raining enough to wear it. I wore the jacket once so far and walked 200 yards to check a camera in the rain and it was fairly warm out. It kept me dry but it was starting to get little steamy.


  7. If your talking having a contractor do it, the price can vary based on your circumstances. A 10' rv gate installed for 700 is cheap as your going get. It could easy cost upto 1500 and still be a fair price. I'm not saying that it won't function for 700 but you get what you pay for as far as material, finish and the way the contractor decides to install it. Then on top of that you would have to add for cutting the block wall. Good luck

  8. I had to cancel my card for some fraudulent charges during the elk draw. It declined it. They told me they would try three times to call and get another form of payment. After that give tag to the next guy if they don't get ahold of you. I wouldn't waste your time calling and asking when that's going to happening cause they wouldn't give me an answer so my phone never left my side until they called.


  9. Is it possible for the motorolas and the rhinos to work together or do they all have to be rhinos to communicate?

     

    Also I thought I read something awhile back about other people outside of your group being able to track your location if you have a rhino and they have one also? Anyone know if there is truth to this?
