.9" of rain, then 2" of snow over night. perfect, snow all gone at home but the mountains all around still covered with snow. It's my perfect idea of a snow storm.

great story, thanks for taking us along.

ummm, you just set yourself up for a thread that will eventually get deleted. 😂

he said it was a very old home. could just be one breaker per room. we have 3 homes built between 1940 and 1951 . they are set up that way. my guess is new gfci is wired wrong. it can get confusing when you are new to electric.

we have a 2006 liberty with the diesel. almost 300k on it. great little suv. excellent transfer case. I know nothing about the gas models.

I tried a back tension release. was great for practice. I absolutely could not hunt with the dang thing.

sorry to say, but hunters and fisherman in general are lazy when it comes to the political part of our sport. We would rather spend our precious free time outdoors. On the other hand the anti's love and spend their time fighting for what they want or believe in.

I have a Cherokee. But if I was flat towing, I would get a geo. One of the most over looked little rigs out there. Don't look great, and not much after market fun things to add on. But they flat out go places. and they are inexpensive compared to other rigs.

haha, we all go thru this. I tell my family, I'm a great hunter , but a terrible killer. After 40 years of archery hunting I still get horrible buck fever. On the other hand my son or I can get my wife on a deer or elk and she kills every time. I don't think I've ever seen her miss live game. Bad hit on a Javilina once but that's it. I would say most of my issues are, I put too much pressure on myself. I figure if you are missing at 40 yards you would still be missing at 10 yards. You either do things right or you don't.

Was this the buffalo incident everone was talking about
runningbird replied to couesdeerhntr's topic in Buffalo Hunting
I think next time I get drawn for archery deer on the Kaibab I'll put salt at every pond in my area. Apparently that make the pond my own private hunting spot. You can drive by 50% of the water holes up there and see an un occupied blind or treestand. It seems some of you think that implies its off limits to everyone else that didn't place the salt or stand? -
2.2" here from the storm. Tonto creek running at about 6'

I hunted archery season. I've been in the same area since 1985. Nothing in the past compared to how poor my hunt was. I even drove back home twice just to get away. very frustrating. weather was perfect , should have been deer every where. The other hunters I ran into said the same. It wasn't just deer. I saw and heard very few coyotes. not even many birds. Just a confusing hunt.

.6" here. steady rain for 6 hours.

beautiful buck. Great work to both of you!

I drove up with 2 of my children 11 and 15 at the time. We enjoyed the inland most of all. 2.5lb brookies were a blast and tasty. We spent about 2.5 months on the road. We did head to seward and that area. we caught a ton of reds and sent a bunch home. Then my wife flew up for a couple weeks and we sent 2 50lb frozen boxes home on the plane with her. We never used a guide , but we had time to ask and learn from locals. My son 15 caught a king on light tackle on the indian river on his first cast. he was alone, I had taken my daughter horse back riding and dropped him off. I found him about 1/2 mile upstream still trying to get that king in. Just a wonderful trip and amazing place. But I'll say, my son and I probably only slept 4 hours a day. so hard to head back to camp when you catching fish and it never gets dark. Everyone wants to head back, but they want to me to make the drive and meet me up there. BC also had great fishing along the way.

I have found helical fletching of any kind much louder than straight.

I've shot a long bow for about 10 years. I love shooting it. I have killed a few Javilena and two mule deer bucks. Tried elk bull elk hunts but missed. Get used to stalking to under 20 yards. I'm dead on at 30 yards, but by the time the arrow gets there the game have jumped 2 or three steps. My deer were shot at 12 and 16 yards. Traditional is a whole different game.

once again, will those of you concerned attend the meeting. Or will you just sit on the computer and complain if you don't like the results.

a good hot toddy when you get back to camp.

I am shocked this is still up. I can only guess most do not know what great off road vehicles these are.

just got back from hunting oregon. my son had a big lion stalking him for 20 min at less than 20 yards. did not have a hand gun. no shot with his bow. too thick. how thick. I had a bull at less than 10 yard for 20 min. could hear him breathing , peeing. but could not see even a leg. this lion just moved with my son. he carried a 357 after that... he could not decide to nock a arrow or video so nocked but no video.

hmm , sounds like the COVID way. like Verizon. close up all the stores , offer no support or help. dont maintain or upgrade the towers. then sit back and collect money.....

FYI , the last dog we had put down, we had a vet come to our home. cost $100. we were all there, much more comforting. Cal had his tennis balls and antlers with him. his head on my daughters lap.. To my family, this was still horribly hard but much better than having him in a vets office. All my dogs are scarred to death of the office.
