Funeral is tomorrow. I volunteered to go, but some senior guys took my spot.

Yep It just takes a little longher when GH is on patrol

They are nice, I like them! http://forums.coueswhitetail.com/forums/in...showtopic=16213

That would be Colin, my best bud. BullRiders for Christ was a classic. I havent seen that ugly rig in quite a while. Good thing for him, his lovely wife drives a newer Toyota to cruise his kids around in!

128 3/8

My dad finally gave into his failing hip. Today at about noon, he went under the knife. My mom and I just got to see him and currently, he is in good spirits. High as a kite, and loopy but not feelin much pain. Doctor says that it was a success, and he should make a full recovery. He didnt have a full replacement, just a Birmingham Hip Re-surfacing procedure done. Less intrusive, and he should be able to recover quicker. Thank you all.

They are tought little boogers! Mine took two shots with a 22-250! Nicely done.

Id shoot that one... Or at it anyways! What a monster!

I applaud the effort, but I wouldnt seek taxidermy as a career path. The base is pretty bad asss though!

I cant see the pix at work, but nice to see Colin gettin bloody since he was slow on the trigger on the one I called in.

I like the Energizer Lithium batteries. They last forever! I used them for about 5 days before they expired. Of course, they expired on one of the best looking stands I had done in that set!

Jake, Ill take the 38 ammo

Lark hit the nail on the head. Every single word of it. Double action, hammerless. I used to sell the chit out of them when I worked at Sportsmans. So many guys came in looking for a 1911, 5" .45 ACP for their wife for home defense. One of the first things I brought up was how many walls between where your wife sleeps, to where the kids sleep. The average was 1, some being two. As soon as I brought up the guarantee that the .45 will penetrate that wall EVERYTIME, their mind changed, and was completely open to suggestions. I converted about 95% of those people over to a double action, hammerless .38 special. Some guys were stuck on having a auto, even though most of the time their wives' werent able to work the slide at a less than perfect group. They were just set on them beaing able to crank off 10+ rounds in just a few seconds. Most did go to .380, or a 9mm, though. Everyting Lark said is 100% true about his reccomendation! Anyone who trys to get to my mom when my dad and I are gone will get 6 shots to the chest from my moms 38, I can promise that!

You have been saying you need to update your scope for a while, get er done and kill that big buck!!

Yes, mine has the target turrets. They are outstanding! I have the standard duplex. No need for anything fancy when ya got turrets. I LOVE it!

My dad has a 7 RUM and we like it. It shoots well, and dropped his coues at 531 a couple years ago with one shot! 140 Accubonds work great

Happy B-day big dog! May your day be blessed with black mini skirts, and thoughts of big bulls and bucks!

First stand was dry, tired to make it happen but nothing would come in. Second stand, Jake and I, and my buddy COLIN were driving around checking waterholes for ducks. Saw some extremly interesting and "Foxy" looking rocks. In our short, 50 yard hike in we saw two piles on fox poo, and one that looked like Big Foot laid, it intimidated me! Anyways... I set the Foxpro about 10 yards infront of me as I knew it would be quick as conditions were close. COLIN was sitting right next to me, as he is a hunting virgin and is yet to kill anything, so I wanted him to get a shot. At the ten minute mark, this pretty female popped up right behind the call, at about 15 yards. I told COLIN "Theres a fox"... Since he is pretty new to hunting, he didnt raise up in time and I beat him to the trigger and dropped the hammer.The number 4 buck put her down on the spot! COLIN was sad he missed out, but he needs to be quicker. He will learn in time! (Jake has the pictures, will post soon)

What scope do you have on your's? 4.5-14x50 Zeiss with target turrets. Love it! It is about to get a new McMillian stock!

Doug, let me know when you are going in there... That is part of my area.

Wow! What a toad! Nicely done! Why is he all messed up lookin? Like wet lookin

I, and the ammo is in either Tucson or Casa Grande.

I have most of a box of 16 guage 2 3/4" #6 shot. if you want it, come pick it up and its yours!

Saw a white dodge dually today down town. Who was it?
