    Where were you?

    I remember, while on my juniors only cow hunt in 27 my dad asking my mom "so, have we bombed the sh!t out of them yet?". That kind of set the tone to me for how serious this was.

    Where were you?

    Getting ready for school. I remember coming out of my bedroom and seeing my mom with tears in her eyes, mouth wide open covering it with her hand. I also remember being pissed off that football practice wasnt cancelled. Looking back on it today, that was a wise choice. We were all so pissed off that we had an amazing practice. We beat the dogsh!t out of each other.

    Camera thiefs caught!

    There was a camera thief from this very sight caught red handed. He was given the free pass by many... and then was cited for poaching... anyone remember that?

    D.BACKS BASEBALL

    Bullpen has been rough lately. Boxberger has been Rodneyesk. Bradley has been horrible. A lot of really major mistakes from the manager. However, the offense has fallen into a May like slump as well. Even Peralta has cooled off.
  12. This was in 2016, so I guess not technically "a few".
  13. When he hit it, my immediate response was "there go the bsckstraps". Not the case. Exit was only about an inch. very little damage especially for the location of the hit.

    D.BACKS BASEBALL

    It has been tough to swallow. I would have bet every cent to my name and every cent I'd ever earn that Bradley was going to through a first pitch "challenge" fastball to Kemp yesterday. Last year he could get away with those at 97-99, but this year at 94-95 he can't. I love that team, but they are struggling and yes, Lovullo is making way to many questionable/bad calls. Not hitting for Mathis/Greinke and letting Greinke start the 8th for example.
  15. We killed a nice buck (100+) few years ago at 500 with a 6.5 cm. Hit was a little high. 143 eldx if I recall correctly. Took us about 90 minutes to get there... minimal damage and buck was still alive.

    How do you nuke an old salt lick?

    My opinion is leave it. After 12 years I'd bet those deer depend on those nutrients.

    Drop Tine Coues

    The deers entire right antler looks funny. Looks like it comes out of the skull at a weird place/angle.

    Playing Possum?

    I saw one dead in Rio Rico last year.
  20. I'm very surprised at how few people know the difference between cartridge and a caliber.

    Ladder Test Load development HELP!!

    40.4 and 40.7 seem to have the least vertical separation to me. Never mind, photos are rotated I see.
