If you take me with you I promise I'll show you how to keep them off you. Let me know when to pack my bags. TJ

Congratulations on winning all that stuff. When it comes to these banquets I've never seen a more generous couple with donations and the purchasing of tickets to benefit whatever species the banquet sponsors. Glad to see you getting something in return. OUCH! That is one mean looking sunburn Mark. I bet it's not as much fun today as it was yesterday. TJ

Congratulations on a very nice bear. My hat is also off to you young man. Thanks for sharing. kidso.........I know your heart got pumping overtime when you saw this one. TJ

Is that .81% or 81%?

I got 20pts so what are better odds for me, desert or rocky? Thanks! TJ

Oh Kathi, I wished you hadn't done that. That is so refreshing looking. I passed this up for work? Someone just shoot me. I feel good knowing no food will go to waist with Paul sitting with you'all. Peg and I will be thinking of yens. Win some rifles! TJ

:lol: Now I feel so much better, thanks!

You're killing me with these posts about sitting around pool side and sippin on a cold one. Peg and I also wish we could have made it. There's no doubt you all will have a great time tonight and toss one or two down for me Mark. TJ

Nice mounts for sure. Where was the last picture, with all the antlers, taken from. I assume a fenced in property. TJ

I really like the coverts sold here on cwt but I also agree with Coach that any camera can be taken with a battery pack grinder. I have had a couple taken and it really pisses me of. I wish I could continue putting out covert cameras but the cheap wild view cameras make better sense. I know a person in the Payson area who has been stealing cameras and equipment. He has also admitted to the Sheriff Office he has been doing this for many years. My friend actually caught him, his wife, and young son with his blind, 2 cameras, feeder, and chair on their quad while trying to get away. The thief is well known in the Payson area and his Dad runs a well known business. The Tonto National Forest and the Sheriff Office are pursuing charges as we speak against this scum bag. I will post his picture as soon as I get the ok. TJ

Thanks for the cam pics and congratulations to your kid on her first critter. TJ

Good luck this year and I'm anxious to see what you bring to the table this year. I'm sure it will be outstanding. TJ

Boy does that look good. A friend of mine passed away being a camp host at that lake and his ashes are spread over the lake. Thanks for posting. Peg and I will be up there in a couple weeks. Hope the fishing gets better for the little ones Shelvin. TJ

Who all will be sitting at the cwt table? Take lots of pictures and hopefully someone will win a rifle or two. TJ

Congratulations on your marriage but why rush it. ....just kidding you know.

I recently had to tear down a utility shed to make room for a 5th wheel. I had a car port sale the last two days and got rid of a bunch of stuff I forgotten I had. I have over 500 magazines that someone might want to read. They go back as far as the 80's and 90's . I wanted to keep them so I could go back some day and read them after I retire but my wife has convinced me it's time to give them up. Each box has approx. 100 magazines. My original thought was to give these away free but instead I have decided to take a donation for them and will give 100% of it to help with the cost of coueswhitetail.com. $1.00, $5.00, or whatever you want to donate per box. Maybe these aren't worth anything but let's see. I.- Sports Afield (approx.100) 2.-Outdoor Life (approx. 100) 3.-Peterson Hunting and Bowhunting approx. (approx. 75) 4.-Mixed Hunting and Fishing (approx. 100) 5.-This last box could be quite informational to some of you young hunters or those new to our state. There are several of the old Arizona Hunter & Angler magazines in this box and they have the unit of the month in the issues. Most are back from the 80's thru the 90's and really do make for some good reading material. Our very own Tony Mandile, aka Outdoor Writer, is published in most if not all of these issues. Tony has some good stories about our game and where to find them. Also in this box I have several old Wildlife View magazines and several of the very first paper additions. For some of you old timers who can still remember back a few years I have a bunch of the late Bob Hirsch's Outdoor Almanacs I have also put away for later reading but will let go along with this box. TJ

There is no doubt Lance you are the one to contact if someone truly wants to score on a buffalo of a lifetime. Congratulations to Brady on a great hunt. When I talk with people about buffalo hunts I can't help bringing up Lances name. Lance, the write-up is first class and being able to get those pictures along the way is amazing. No magazine could do any better and my hat is off to TLO once again with another successful hunt for their client. Thanks for sharing and I can't wait to see another once in a lifetime buffalo hunt from TLO. TJ

All 5 boxes are gone. Thanks! TJ

There's no doubt he seen some great times in his life. I would loved to have been along side of your Great Grand Dad that day. Thanks for sharing some of your family past with us. TJ

Very nice bear and I bet kidso's mouth was watering. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Another of your great photos. Great job on the owls and I look forward to seeing some more of your work. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Awesome Doug and again like always you come thru with amazing pictures. Never get tired of them that's for sure. Looking forward to the next bunch. TJ

Thanks for all the kind words. Peg is loving her trailer and our first trip will be to Greer in a couple of weeks. Tracy......you wouldn't have been late and I remember you saying you were going to do that. Our anniversary isn't untill the 11th so I still have time to forget. lol TJ

Thanks Stanley! I actually have been working on making up for forgetting twice in the last 2 years by writing it down on every calendar I use. As much as I like coueswhitetail, it isn't going to be the reason I forget this year. Yes, I do blame Amanda's site for those two blunders. I actually was on site both times my wife ask if there was something I had forgotten and my answer was " I don't think so". Not the right answer! For starters I had a custom made fly rod made for Peg by a good friend of mine Annie Bounds of Canyon Angler Rods. Her husband is Ted Bounds, aka Jackshoe, on here. Stanley.......thanks for the reminder and thinking of my best interest. Gary...........I've never heard that one before and have to remember it for sure. TJ

I often wondered how many times a butcher ruined a blade do to this exact thing. It could be costly for sure. Thanks for sharing. TJ
