    It's free but there's probably upgrades you can pay for. I've been using this app for about 10 years and the forecasts are very accurate. You can zoom in on the map to the point you can pinpoint cells and precipitation over forest roads.

    I got the free one and cant get the radar to show.

    Oh Delw is gonna school you. Lol

    Not me dude, I dont weld or pretend to know anything about it.

    If I was to mickey mouse it and had the other piece, I would drill and tap it then toss 2 LONG stainless steel screws in it.

    but its a boat motor lots of vibration as well as bumps. if it can break being one solid piece it could break alot easier mickey mousing it. not to mention liability issues.    NEW or Used Bracket

    Lets hope so, but the more i look at it, it looks like a nipple surrounded by an arreola.  Either way moisture is abound.

    Looks more like a Covid vaccination 3rd tit.

  4. most alum on motor stuff is cast and or crap. buy a new one or find a used one.

    the pin in there need to ride smooth and free.. it can be mickey moused and may and probably will work but if you ever get in a accident your fault or theirs you will more than likely loose.

    that looks like one of the main motor mounts that attaches to the hull. if the other one breaks due to stress you can loose your motor or injure someone.

    Here's the thing... and I've avoided saying this because I do NOT want to sound arrogant. We kill some of the bigger deer the desert has to offer. We do it without overly relying on trailcams (I don't use them at all). I've never hunted the strip but I can't fathom it being any harder than the desert we hunt. If we can get it done in the desert without cams they can get it done up there... with far more financial resources because of what they charge. 

    Your exactly right. The strip is no harder to hunt for big deer more than any other unit in the state. I think the strip easier to hunt than the desert for the simple fact you have more bigger deer to choose from.

    the problem is peoples expectations.

    Fair enough- I wished I had hunted the unit with that in place.  I guarantee they had much further coverage than that when I was there.  And I still believe night coverage won't be anywhere near complete.  Nobody sits all night long on a water hole for $50.

    never say nobody, ;) I did it for free just to see what comes in .

    but in todays society I doubt you would find very hardly anyone to do it for someones elses tag paid or not.

    As a hunter, how would you be able to run cameras AND hunt? The wording is vague at best which leads the wardens to get creative in their interpretation and application of the law. All you would have to do is hunt in the same general area to be in violation.

    it would be the same as a hunter owning thermal imaging scopes or full autos and using them on single fire and not being able to use them to hunt

    I don't own or have a single camera out. 

    I have a very good freind who loves nature and has numerous cameras , all over the unit I hunt. He's not a hunter but gladly shows me all the pictures from his cameras. 

    He'll  send me pictures  and a text message telling me the locations.

    Lets say ---  I'm lucky enough to tag this deer during my hunt.  Am I in trouble under this new law, since I have a trail camera picture of him and I post it here . He's drinking from a tank.

     

     

    but all G&F would have to do is look up your social media posts and find out you do own cameras  ;)

    I don't know how the strip outfits sell hunts but we don't get more money for bigger animals. We also don't charge trophy fees. The established outfits, like us, already have a client base and won't need trailcam pics to sell hunts. This ban will really hurt some outfits and really help others. We've also never once sold the location of an animal. 

    Doesnt make any difference what you done or do, there are guides that do it all the time and always have been. some even offer a "CLUB" membership. elk and lopes are popular for for this as well as deer in certain units.

    The irony here is that you took over one of the largest fishing forums in the country and ran it into the ground. Now you spend your time trolling on one of the last thriving outdoor related forums which is managed and created by a woman.

    Do you tell your Marine Daugher that she belongs in the kitchen? 

    Irony is funny when you spin it. Facts are better, I sold it and made BANK.

    And yes I do tell my Marine Daughter that all the time as well as some of our closest friends tell her the same thing. Best part about it she can take it and dish it out unlike most so called men on this forum,  ;)

    I don’t understand why so many guiding services were against the ban. Seems to me this just helped their business. People will need guides more than ever now….

    Thats really simple to understand, they sold there services by PICTURES, the bigger the animal the more money they got from hunters looking for a guide.. Not to mention all the guides and people selling the location said animals to DYI'S.

    I'm betting they lost a good chunk of there revenue with the camera bann.
