We were doing the rail for D Backs games. Some days it was fine, others it was wall to wall packed. We drove to a suns game 2 weeks ago and parked south of case field for a reasonable price. Plus the kids liked walking by chase field with all the world series banners.

I had a friend make some conicals for me, but they didn't work out. I just stick with round balls now. I would love to get another .44 in the walker model.

I got one years ago at a pawn shop for like 50 bucks. I want to take javelina with it but haven't had the chance.

You need to add a Spiller and Burr to that collection.

I had the timing get off on a 1860 army, it exploded in my hands. That shoot will shake you up a bit.

Awesome job! Persistence pays off!

There are actually several operations around the state that have them now. But these llamas are my friends, and they got them from all over the west. My llamas aren't old enough to pack yet, next season. Actually, I just looked you up, that white one was purchased from you.

I just added that to my wish list....

3006 over 243, as long as he shoots it well.

No, he came back after taking the meat to my walk in cooler. So he was there to help pack out mine. It worked out pretty well.

So this year I found out I had drawn a tag like everyone else after the 3rd round of card hits. I was already making plans for other things in September because no one I knew drew a tag. But come to find out, not only did I draw, but so did my work partner for the same hunt. So the planning began. Over the last 10 years I have done everything I could to help friends and family on their hunts and to learn as much I could. And it definitely paid off. Opening morning we were able to call in this dink for my buddy. At 25 yards he was able to knock the wind right out of him. He ran maybe 80 yards and piled up. That night we hiked his elk out and I went back in Saturday morning. I had several close calls, but couldn't seal the deal. One was my target bull that will probably haunt my dreams. I had him at 37 yards but couldn't get him to step out from behind a tree. He decided I wasn't sexy enough and returned to his cows and out of my life. Sunday morning came, and now I had 2 buddies to help. It was a fun day with several passes and almosts. One stand we had a small 6 come in, when a wolf about 200 yards behind us starts howling. That bull cleared the country. But I was going to pass on him anyways. Later that evening we set up on higher ground when an elk bugled below us. We gave a couple soft calls and he came in hot on a run. When he got to 22 yards I made my shot. He ran down hill where he took his final breaths. I had a lot of folks give me solid advice before this hunt and thanks to them we had an amazing time. I definitely would not have got it done without them.
