    Drones during an open season (not for hunting)!

    Common sense. And the next one of the little bastards that comes in and hovers over my wife working in her garden, she’s ready for ya this time!

    Greatest Generation

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_McCudden The latest young man I read about and watched a documentary about on YouTube was this guy. Not an American aviator but a Brit in WW1. Ace status by 23 and only lived a few months after that, died in an accident on the airstrip when engine failed. Talk about a baby face!

    Greatest Generation

    He had a determined look on his face. Acne, baby face and all! Not certain many 17 year olds nowadays would look so confident facing what those young men knew was coming!

    My wife almost killed us both yesterday trying to avoid a covey of the little peanuts crossing ahead of us on a road in Vail!

    Overpaid for 1500 of these just to secure them. I’m going to keep 500. $150 for the brick or I’d be willing to separate for $15 a sleeve. It’s what I paid. East of Benson.

    Yesterday, No longer valid save on gas at Circle K

    Couple weeks ago the Maverick way north Tucson was 3.49 for diesel. I got stuck at the tracks because of a long train so I decided to go to the QT west just the other side of I10 thinking they’d be competitive. Nope 3.99. Turned around and waited for the train to pass!

    Finding new hunting areas when the old ones dry up

    You might consider sticking with the area. Most hunters are fickle, looking for greener pastures when an area is down due to being shot out or lions and do what you’re talking about doing. Areas just go through ups and downs. Possibly put your energy into going in there during other hunts to see what kind of pressure etc. and maybe work a little harder in that area to get a bit further in really picking it apart. Most others won’t do this and just leave.

    Womens Hand Gun

    I might just resemble that remark sadly! As far as the monster bucks go! I’m that guy who would probably benefit from a danged tranquilizer before touching one off on a bomber buck! But for me that’s a different set of nerves!😂

    Womens Hand Gun

    Me and my wife had a situation a dozen years ago that tested both of our “keep it together when the crap hits the fan” levels and from that point on she hasn’t touched any of my semi autos. She has gotten really good with a 6” GP 100 357 loaded with 38s. Probably most of us guys could keep it together mentally in a heated situation but the little ladies? IDK I’m just glad my wife chose the revolver. She can always turn it into a hammer when empty!

    Frustrated By Potential Buyers

    All my dealings with members of this site have been positive. FB and Craigslist not so much. I sold a Sportsman 500 a few years ago that was listed to sell at $2500. Had many calls right away and the first guy was from 45 miles away in Tucson. The second guy lived only 2 miles away but I told him I’d let him know if it didn’t sell. The guy from Tucson decided my price was negotiable and wouldn’t give any more than $2000. I sent him on his way and called the second guy. The first guy showed back up without calling while I was doing the deal and then was willing to give full price. His wife proceeded to cause a scene calling me a dik and then he and his wife got into an argument over the whole deal. Then asked if I’d air up a trailer tire for them which I did but made them wait a good half hour while I was helping the purchaser. If you’ve had much experience selling online, you’ve probably met some real winners! If you’ve dealt squarely with someone then both parties know who the dik is and nothing more needs saying!
