usually, i like to set up camp atleast the day before the hunt. that way dad and i can go out thursday night and look for some bucks for friday am. this year, since we have the whole november hunt, i will be leaving flagstaff at 130 get home, get all the stuf ready and leave bright and early friday.

went out today with my old man in a place where we havent been in a few years but where i have seenb my biggest buck... DIDNT SEE A dang DEER!!!! talk about dissapointing!

nice photoshop Josh! we all know ther arent coues like that anymore around here! :D:D:D:D

Scott, if you need to make any room in the freezer, let me know ill be glad to take some meat off your hands!

TAM, if i was going to get a WBY for deer sized game with an elk hunt thrown in every so often, it would be the 270 wby mag also. i currently use a 270 wsm and my dad uses a 7RUM.

i have the Danner elk hunters made for cabelas. my first hunt with these boots ( my pig/lion combo) sucked! the boots were not broke in like i though and the 6 miles stalking and the 9 miles packing out for the lion really tore up my feet! than agian, that was in some of the nastiest stuff i have hiked through, but they were broke in after that! this past weekend, i quail hunted in them for about 6 hours in the pouring rain, by the end of the day, my feet were soaked, but i dont expect any boot to stay water tight in those conditios. another boots to check out are browning boots, i have one pair and they are very comfortable!

i have the X1, it is not what you are looking for as it is too small, but i have another pack and is over 5000 if i need it. the X1 is awesome, i usually have trouble with the waist belt staying around my waist but this one doesnt have that nearly as badly as the others. i really like it.

the moly coating is the only difference. the bullet is the same, just the coating that is used to usually get more barrel life, and i have heard a FEW more FPS. i have also heard it is very tough to get it all out of a barrel that has gotten used to shooting moly bullets. i do not shoot moly from any of my guns

happy birthday Amanda, whats this? 29 right?

Christian, give Barska a chance man! not all guns can handle the huge recoil from that powerful .243... especially with the heavy, bulldog weight 80-90 grain bullets!

like i said on the phone, tha is a bummer but Virgil will be able to shake it off in a week or so!

saturday i hunted in stuff that im too stupid to not hunt in..POURIN RAIN!!!! man it was bad! my truck went from shiny white, so brown with white polka dots. hiked about 4 or 5 miles before jumping the first covey and manage to get 3 out of it, then when we were driving out, jumped another covey and got another 3 out of them. will ever hunt in weather like that again ( ps, i was in/around dewey)

Christain nailed it... must besome problem! heck i wish i could draw that many tags in 3 years! congrats!

are we talking to reload or factory? either way, i wuld look for a 139 interbond or a 140 accubond,

i dont know if its just me, but does that nice 'lope make Lark look uglier than ever? personally, i like the second picture best... cause its missin Lark

IT IS HUNTING SEASON!!!!!! i am going nuts waiting for my deer hunt in november! all i can think about is shootin my gun, double and triple checking my 270wsm. i am at home in tucson now and all i can think about with my dad is where are we going to hunt and how many days, where at, the quality of bucks were gonna get, what taxidermist to use, how many shells i need to load ( Ernesto and Doug, that parts for you) is anyone else getting the bug yet? quail hunting this weekend will have to take care of it for a while but i cant wait for my deer hunt!!!

call me crazy, but a big 4x4 is pretty rare! that 3x2 has some serious masssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!! very nice

sure does! Virgil and Penny havin em nailed...... looks really familar! hopefully i can shoot better this year though lol

well, you need a press, a scale, primers, brass, bullets, powder, a reloading book, a chamfer, a funnel, a tray......

that balde doesnt look so hot, but it did its job!

THAT is why i ALWAYS take my gun with me no matter what! had a buddy kill a nice 5x5 in colorado with his pants still down, and another buddy killed a fork muley with his pants down too!

will be hittin it hard this weekend with a few buddies of mine. cant wait for mearns as a buddy of mine and his two muts usually hook up for a days worth of mearns hunting. aint that right scottyboy!

some call it 12, some call it 18.... so i dream big!!! bot your right, i dont know what the heck i was smokin when i said 18" but it must have been some good stuff!!! bot your right, i dont know what the heck i was smokin when i said 18" but it must have been some good stuff!!! now i just need to get some for the girls lol!!! ( just joking all, i dont smoke anything let alone anything that would make me halluscenate like that (sp)

that last buck is a stud! i hope you keep geting bored, cause you being bored = us entertained!
