to heck with the bull, i wana know about that mule deet that is your icon?

when my parents got our chocolate lab, i gave her a few sheds to chew on but she didnt show much interest in them. my mut i have (doberman/austrilian shepard) surpirsed me the other day. i had a small muley antler i found while quail huntingin the garage. i left the door going down to the garage open and while i was gone, he went down, brought it up stairs and started chewing on it which is fine. i have caught him chewing on it a few times in the back yard. that kinda makes me happy, maybe he can help me find some horns! he LOVES going on hikes so maybe i can put him to good use! buthe is scared to death of gun shots! was out quail hunting with him and my chocolate lab one time, when i comenced to shooting, he ran and hid while my lab was righy by myside and, oddly enough, with out any traning she retrieved one of the quail i busted! and yes, that is a nice old school browning!

he talks the talk buc cant walk the walk.

forgot to mention,. did witness a bad fall. dad and i were walking along and all of a sudden he goes down ( its flat ground) and THROWS his gun wearing a brand new leupold 4.5-14x40 LR with B&C reticle ( NOT a cheap scope) he was fine but he managed to put a nice size ding in the scope!!!!! after we laughes our @$$3@@ off (well, mostly me) he killed a buck about 20 mins later. but man is it a nice scar on that gun! neither of us were happy.

Scott... i dont know if i cant hunt with you ever agian! lol twoguns OUCH!!!! my worst was probably when i was about 14. cut the top of my thumb straigh down to where the knife couldnt go anyfarther because it was in my fingernail. couldnt load my gun for a good 3 weeks. also put a pretty good cut in my California howdy finger trying to hand tighten a broad head. ther than that, just smalls cuts and such from falls. i almost rolled down the mountain when i was packing out my lion, but other than that i have been lucky.

why does it seem any lion under 150 lbs is a kitten? mine was called a kitten also, and i do not see any sign of spots on this cat at all. and at a distance of 5 feet in the attack position, i think that would be considered self defense if nothing else, am i wrong? again, congrats on the lion.

good ole molly butlers. that place is neat! have caught quite a few trout on the little colorado where it comes into town. that bull in MB's is huge! do you know the story on him at all? my grandpa has always tried to get the scoop but still has no idea!

Josh, im gonna have to agree with everyone else.... he sure doesnt have ur looks! im proud of ya, not only for that nice horn

man i thought my lion was close! but heck, urs even knew u were there! awesome!

bill sounds like ur in the white mountains, what part? my grandparents have a cabin pinetop we go to all the time. on my time off i work and go to school. for fun i develope and test loads for my rifles, go fishing try to scout but usually doesnt work out,. hiking is hella fun and i need to do it more often, my pup (ojos, doberman austrillian shepard mix) would go nuts and love it! i need to take him out!

SCREW THAT!!!! dont get me wrong, when i am worth about 10-20 million, i would LOVE to go lion hunting but man thats scary! i just ordered death in the long grass and am awaitng its arrival! Bill, i would love to hear the story of your beautiful lion!

1.5k for a dinner! do you know what i could do with 1.5k!!!! looks like ya had a good time!

i use zeiss and love them. swarovskis are awesome but at 1700-1800, they are a pretty penny.

900 shipped

that is a good looking gun, i really like that model, the MTN DM. when i bought my 30-06, if the gun shopt i bought it from would have had that gun, i would have bought it. what loads do you have on the way?

sweet looking gun! i have 2 rigs that are almost the same: 30-06 LSS mountain rifle with leupold 3.5-10x50 scope and 7mag model 700 with the zeiss 3-9x50. those groups should be tighter when the barrel gets broken in and once you find a good load. is the gun brand new? are you keeping this one? i like those mountain rifles with the DM.

could you tell if the bullet blew up or held together pretty well? how was the exit? was hoping you were using a accubond or TSX to see what kind of expansion it got!

Deerslam, what bullet did you use in the 270 to take that hog? how was the performance? congrats

it is amazing how mnay people cross the border everyday. when i was packing out my javelina, one of my hunting partners said he stopped and talked to 8 illegals not 1/2 mile from camp! i also got pulled over 2 times in about 15 mins on the way back! some of you know and some of you dont, i am going to school to work for the border patrol! that is really what i want to do! wish me luck!

lino hunting is for sure a challenege! i did it on a spot and stalk and it honestly, tested my man hood. it would have been fine but i had on new boots with a not as good as i thought fit. hard work really pays off, as it does in any hunt.i can only imagine how hard and physically and mentally demanding a hunt with dogs would be. my hat is off to you guys who run dogs!allthough, i must admit, if i had a choice of killing a lion with dogs or spot and stalk, i would take spot and stalk.

also coming from the stand point of the son, the time is cherished with my dad!

Chef you hit it on the head! the majority of them are from Texas! you know there is bound to be some trouble!
