That's a dang nice buck for your first or whatever number buck in my thinking. Congratulations Heather. Dale should give you a great deal on that mount. TJ

Congratulations Garret on a very nice buck and for sharing Geneva's place. That had to be awesome to say the least. TJ

Wouldn't you know it, the dang game is on my day to work. Bummer! Everyone will love your place and especially the view of the Superstitions. Thanks for selling me the blind tonight Mark & Kathi. TJ

Very nice Jim. The hunter must be one happy hunter for sure with that buck. TJ

That is just awesome. Congratulations on your first deer. That's a very nice buck no matter how many you've shot. Now go get your pig and post it for us to see. Way to get it done. How about a story to go with it? TJ

That was #34. I killed my first one in 1976 and missed a couple years. TJ

Congrats to your Dad. That's an awesome lion and thanks for sharing. Nothing like hunting with Dad to build the memory bank. TJ

Way to stick it out Pig Whisperer. I completely understand your passion for these little guys. Loved your story and your picture isn't bad at all. TJ

Congratulations Gino on an awesome buck. You certainly put in your home work. Thanks for sharing your hunt with us. TJ

Looks like ya got a good spot and thanks for sharing your pics with us. Trail cams are a blast as you have started to find out. TJ

Congratulations Dewey on another great hunt. I felt like I was there beside ya as you told your story. There's no doubt you will stick one with your home made equipment one of these days. That is just awesome to say the least and thank you Amanda for posting this for Dewey. TJ

Congratulations Jason on connecting with a pig with Matt filming. That's just awesome and I can tell by the smile on your face it was another great memory making day with one of your sons. Them are good pictures and thanks for sharing. TJ

That's a big pig you shot Keith. Congratulations and way to stick with the tracking job. I can certainly relate to you missing that buck. It's easy to not do the little things, like looking thru your peep site or anchor wrong, when you are all worked up with excitement. Thanks for sharing your story and picture. TJ

Congratulations Clay to you and your Dad. Those hunts with your Dad are special hunts and they even become more special as the years add up. The memories will last a lifetime but believe me when I say you better have a journal started because the older you get the harder it is to remember those days. Thanks for sharing your pictures. TJ

Thanks Mark, I wil take the double blind for $100. TJ

+1 + 100

Congratulations on the pig and your friends coues. TJ

Congratulations on getting your pig with a long bow. I have thought of doing the same. Thanks for sharing. TJ

How awesome to share it with your wife. Comgratulations! TJ

Thanks Shelvin and the same to you and your family. I'm walking out the door for my pig hunt as I type this. Good luck to all the pig hunters today and shoot straight. TJ

I've heard Scott's tacos are to die for. Hope everyone has a Happy New Year. We are having wings, shimp, and stuffed hot pepper. Then it's packing time for javelina in the morning. Don't get any better than than that does it. TJ

Yay!!!! Trying with archery equipement so the wet weather wasn't ideal! I appreciate Javier postponing until conditions are better! I'm excited! Good luck Ilene on your hunt. Peg says to shoot straight. TJ

Thanks again everyone for all the advise on my selfishness. I guess it's about time to end this post and pull the plug. Peg actually did just that, literaly. I'm sitting here drinking my coffee, looking at cwt, and soon heading out the door what was suppose to be a day of scouting for pigs and she yells " we have a problem". She had just filled the sink with dish water and water is running all over the kitchen floor and into the dinning area. She tells me we have a leak and boy do we have a leak. I should have gotten away sooner. After further inspecting the piping it appears she had loosened the nut so the pipe would blow out with a little water preasure. She has taken this keeping me at home way to far this time. It's her mess to clean up and I'm out of here with my binos. TJ ps....well, I've reconsidered and I'm heading to Home Depot for parts. The things women will stoop to to keep a good man at home. Thanks again for all the replies. It's been fun.

Yesterday started a 4 day weekend for me so Lexie, my lab, and I went dove hunting. It was a great morning even though we only saw 1 dove. The trip home is another story I won't go in to now since it will take away from why I started this post. Last night my wife and I go out for a fish dinner, as we like to do sometimes on fridays. While we're sitting there I say I was getting up in the morning and going glassing for pigs and have scheduled pheasants planted for Lexie to hunt on Monday. That's when she hit me with both barrels. "Can't you just give it a break? Tomorrow is x-mas eve and we have a duck dinner planned for my sister and her husband as you know, so why can't you spend the morning at home watching the Cardinals and relax? I suppose you want to scout x-mas day as well and you never told me you were pheasant hunting on Monday." Then I say, "I'm sure I told you about Monday but then again maybe it slipped my mind, do you want to go?" Ok, you get the picture! Here I sit typing away here on cwt, which is the next best thing to hunting, instead of scouting to please my wife. She's still in bed and the days almost half over 8:15am. Lexie is bored and I can't explain to my dog why we are sitting here looking at each other. I'm sure Lexie can't figure it out either. I got a new Field & Stream I could open but I'm afraid it will just make matters worse. My question to everyone and especially to those much older. After 34 yrs of marriage should I take my wife's advise and take a break or do I have a real problem? Maybe I do need some help and I am selfish so I'm asking for your thoughts. I don't think asking on a hunting forum is so unfair do you. lol

My friend got the same camera for xmas. Thanks again for sharing. TJ
