Sixty Years A Hunter
firstcoueswas80 replied to COOSEFAN's topic in Hunting and Outdoors-related books
Scotty, thank you, but you have more than your share of stories of hunting in Africa and elsewhere, too. Look forward to hearing about your latest safari when you return in May. In the meantime, good luck to you on your trip to my favorite place on this planet. Too bad you won't have time to look up some of my friends down there. Bill Quimby Dont you two rascals go on having the second lunch without me! Bill, thank you for the book. I look forward to reading it cover to cover (along with some Ruark) on the plane over there... And back! -
Our new Coues and elk rifle

Thats a nice rig. Put some 140 TSX or Accubonds down her and things will die -
I stick to the more than 8 pounds... I think your scale is broke and you just caught/released a 10 lber!
-
NFS or a S&B is not needed. I promise you, if you spend the time getting to learn your turrets and where the bullet hits at what distances you will not be dissappointed... Proof is in the pudding... Mattobertin was with me on this shot and told me to get closer... I said "Nope, Ive got turrets for that distance" 571 yards, dead deer!
-
Thats a biggun'! Looks bigger than 8 pounds thought! Dad has a 10 lber on the wall and that thing looks alot like it!
-
Thats funny as all get out! I bet those two dogs are in awesome shape! running up those hills in the snow!
-
Thats pretty cool! Talk about a wall hanger picture!

I work on the TO rez and have never once seen the Shadow Wolves. Of course, I think those guys work mostly at night, and I havent been on nights in a while... -
One full day, and then a morning hunt.
-
Believe me, if I had more than one day it would have been a different story. And this year you and I are hunting, and I aint letting you shoot the first spike you see!
-
Dude, one of my coues (not even a real big buck) is bigger than all yours added up!?! What happened that one day when we were coyote calling?
-
Jake and his brother are good to go... Of course, his brother killed a nice buck and NEVER posted pictures, so maybe that is a mark against them both.... And Jake... Well we wont get started on Jake, but they are good to go

It sucks and doesnt work like it sounds like it should -
I use my GPS 10 hours a day 5 days a week and it is a 60 CSX. Love it.

Another option if NE Tucson if more convenient you are welcome to look through mine...I actually have two options for you I also have the 4.5-14 x 44 Conquest - I ent it into Zeiss and had them put the target turrets on it - only cost $50.00. I love the weight savings it offers and it's just as clear. I have that one too, but scottyboy is taking it to africa so he has it
-
if you are headed towards sportsmans soon, let me know. I will be in tucson today and tomorrow and will let ya look through mine before I send it back to the smith to get the new McMillian put on.

Did anyone else watch Anderson Silva act like a complete douche?! That was a joke! The rest of the fights were really good, and I think Frankie Edgar did infact beat BJ, but man that main event was LAME! Dana White is FURIOUS and I dont blame him! After paying $55 for that crap I want my money back! Silva showed how low class he is by toying with his opponent for 5 rounds. Was he the better fighter? By leaps and bounds but come on dude, knock him out or make him tap if you are that far superior (which he is by far). That was by far the worst UFC fight I have ever seen, and I will NEVER again pay to see him as a main event. Tracy, thanks to you and Angie for coming down! That dip is awesome!

If you aint lyin, you aint tryin!

Does Charlie Daniels play a mean fiddle? "Thats how its done, son"

So, AGAIN, I was mindin' my own business....
firstcoueswas80 replied to COOSEFAN's topic in Non-hunting trip reports
Last snake I killed was at Arivaca lake. It was s super aggressive bastard that rattled at me when I was still 15+ feet away. I stood there debating if it should meet its maker or not. But, the fact that I almost took my dog with me that day, and that it was so close to a recreational spot where kids frequent meant it got a 155 gr .40 S&W to the brain. -
How much for the pistol? If the price is right I am pretty interested.
-
Is he just filming or does he get to shoot too?
