    I like the d backs as much as the next guy but who can justify spending $3400 to go watch ONE baseball game? Especially when he got the tickets for like $500 face value. Either way I'm sure you'll sell them.

    I don't have to justify anything, I'll be there.

    My tickets, the fees were 275.00 each.

    Back in the day being a member of Usery meant you had a key that could enter the range and shoot without rangemaster from sun up (until they opened 8 or 9) and then again from when they closed (5 I think) until sundown. Was well worth the $50 a year that it cost back then.  But as soon as the range masters showed up, you left. This is in the mid 90s even and they were all DBs.  I get the dealing with DHs but ask - asking works 99% of the time. No reason to berate people unless a dangerous situation.  Leaning over a line or grabbing a cleaning rod falling off the bench or whatever - does not deserve the treatment they expelled.  It was embarrassing when taking people from out of state or from a gun/optics manufacturer/rep or someone out there. Haven't been in 20+ years now but my assumption is that is hasn't changed much.   

    Exactly, I was a member from 95 to 2000 . We did it all ourselves before and after shooting hours to the public.

    I don't go there anymore, I have a few spots to shoot.

    The body on this deer completely dwarfed the 110 I shot at in 23 (turned out I missed him but was sure he was down in the brush, so I didn't shoot at this toad when he popped out of some bushes on the same hillside 2 minutes after I shot at the other one)  I went and got my hunting partner and got him lined up on this guy and he popped him.  The biggest bodied Coues I have ever seen.  Woody Holloway in Young said this was the first Coues deer he had ever had hands on that had a longer distance between the nose and eyes than any other Coues buck.  Has a pretty dark skull cap that is more characteristic of a mulie, but definitely had the white tail.  (No, that's not the one in my avatar)  No doubt in my mind there is a whole lotta cross breeding going on around there.366191475_dylansbuck.thumb.JPG.ad9b8de287d7c3e9db3730032c27d584.JPGIMG_4606.thumb.JPG.c495adb6250f23d3e454fee4e6209b0b.JPGIMG_4605.thumb.JPG.7ef7115b66a3a88b556f13ee017ba4e8.JPG

    Nice one! Look at the ears on that buck, congrats guys.

    243 is cope. He’s a man, hunting elk. Get him a man sized gun. 

    So your not a man if you shoot a 243?

     

    It's all about shot placement, many cows have gone down with a 243.
