    Anyone want to go?!

    Well, we went out and gave it our all. On one stand ( of course the one stand Larry forgot his shooting tripod) I called a coyote in 30 yards from him. as he was trying to raise his gun, the dog took of running. Larry followed him through the trees and when he cleared out and slowed to a walk, Larry let one rip. Before he said anyting to me,I told him I heard the "whop" of the bullet hitting home. He agreed but stated the dog ran off. We went and looked for blood and couldnt find any, but are both convinced that he is dead! Reminds me of the cleint I helped Jim on.. shot the dog at 450 yards, saw the dog start rolling over, climbed the mountain ( after he whacked that 101"er) and couldnt find the dog, or blood!

    New To Me

    Yeeah it prolly was a light load... the guns that I have that like to "run fast" when working up a load, they didnt seem to shoot well at a low to mid loads (22-250, 270 wsm, 7 RUM) but when I got into the upper level of the loads, they seemed to tighten up nicely. Yesterday I was busting elk size kill zone rocks at 720 yards with my 270wsm. was shooting at rocks the size of a deers head (which we all know I am good at hitting that!) at 510 and it seemed "easy"

    Long range rifles?

    If you find the right gunsmith it is much cheaper and just as effective to work on your stock trigger.... atleast it was on my Weatherby. I like it better than my buddy's Timney Trigger.... I have had that trigger "lightened-up" twice now and only have about half the cost of a Timney invested. Just my $.02! CnS Ginos right, I have never felt the need to replace any of my factory triggers. My 270 wsm does sport a Bold trigger.

    fall-away rests

    The way I look at whisker bisquits is that you have constant drag along the arrow and if the fletching does not go through the same spot it will not fly the same. I like the fall-aways alot more because the fletchings never touch the rest so it does not impare flight. And I have witnessed this first hand. Eventually, the whiskers will start to fray, and that will severly change how the arrows fly!

    Coues Buck Contest

    Amanda, what ever you all decide is fine with me but I want to hear from firstcoueswas80. He has always had an opinion on most subjects and I want to hear what he has to say. Really, I'm serious! TJ Amanda is not going to add a (How many pieces can you blow the skull plate into contest) Mike, I would have that one tied down wouldnt I! How about a "who misses their goal of a buck by the most" lets see, I killed a low 90's type buck, when I was going for a 100+, and then killed a 45-50" buck while aiming for a 100".. lets see, I missed by about an average 30 inches ( if my math is right) How about "most shots to kill their deer" got that one in the bag too! Heres the thing about having people vote (TJ here comes my opnion) It will be like highschool... a popularity contest... Jimbo has that one in the bag, even if he killed a 80" buck. I think what ever is done, the more prizes that are given out the better! however, I also think that if there are going to be BIG prizes given out ( $1,000 in optics based strictly on score) that the bucks in the top running need to be scored by an "official". I AM NOT ACCUSING ANYONE OF CHEATING, SO THAT CAN BE SQUASHED RIGHT NOW!
