Don't take it to personal Casey. Some of these rim hunters take their hunting pretty serious. TJ

Nice shot from top of the world. Is that a plasic tank you put there or a G&F drinker? Just wondered! I been thinking about putting my own out. Don't really know how legal but I don't see why not. Thanks for sharing, them are nice pics Casey. Thought the same on the claw mark! TJ

that's a challenge I will take personally. Glassing Clinic, how funny is that It will be ok Casey, because you won't be the first one we had to educate on finding the critters. It will make you a better hunter once you ride along on GH's daughter's hunt. TJ

Casey, I just love your enthusiasm about hunting. You remind me of myself when I was your age. I spent every hour of every day off in the woods since I was 10 yrs old. I hope you're keeping a journal because when you get my age you won't remember all the times scouting & hunting. You think you will but you won't. Go get'em! One more thing...........don't worry about getting to the top of the mountain to fast. Start using them new glasses and slow down!!!!!!!!!!! TJ

Your right Jason. It isn't the size of the horn but the taste of the meat. Ask any women!

What kind of lights did you get to fit your decoy and do they come on by solar panel or battery? I've never seen them in a catalog before. Thanks for sharing!

Ok, here's what I'll do, tho. Tomorrow I'll start a thread in Other Big Game, upload pictures of my trophy rooms and maybe some more "hero' shots from the field. How's that? -TONY I think that would be fine with me. Let's see'em Tony.

Good story Tony. Thanks for replying. TJ

Nice looking buck. Thanks for sharing and reminding me of one like it a couple years ago that I got buck fever on and could not pull my bow back. I'm shaking all over agaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin. TJ

What makes you think that all them elk are walking around dying of a slow death from a poorly shot arrow? That is what the PETA and anti would like people to think. Yes, it happens but I like to think most poorly shot animals recover and if they don't then most dye quickly and the feed chain continues as nature intended but with a little help. I wonder if G&F have any statistics on how many they think survive a poorly placed arrow or bullet. Maybe Amanda would know. Diamondbackaz.......I never intended to place you in any catagory other than a supporter and sportsman of coueswhitetail.com. Your quote would bring up a good TOPIC on how everyone thought the outcome plays out. Tony...you've been around the block a time or two. Do you have any insight you care to share on the topic?

Thanks for sharing that one with us. Reminded me of the time I decided to clean an elk head for a friend who left it in water for weeks and it spoiled. I brought it home and put it on the roof. When maggots started falling from the house and the neighbors complained of the smell my wife said enough. Well, I had to finish the job. Never did get the smell out of the antlers and the roof smelled for months. Something to think about here .........One of a poacher's old tricks is to kill an elk and cut the head off and put it in a tree only to return later to recover the anlers once it has been cleaned by birds. Many of poachers have been caught this way. It's good you got the video just in case you needed it and you are a better man than me to have tackled that raunchy head. You must have edited the part of you puking while removing the head. TJ

The video was awesome and this redneck even got pumped up with the music.

The answer to your guestion is ........kiss your a*& good bye. Just kidding, you got some good information from everyone. My Mother use to put us kids under the bed when it lightninged so you will find me in my truck scared to death. I've been bit on the boot and had several close calls with rattlers and I'm on the look out for those guys all the time. Really, they don't scare me that bad.

Great pictures Tony. That has got to get those tag holder's blood flowing for sure. You're a great asset to this site. I think I've seen that picture of your younger days somewhere. Was it in a magizine once? TJ

No one will listen but here is what I've learned over the years of not taking care of myself. Azpackhorse.....Talk about trama, now I can't run but have to walk for exercise because of a titaniun plate in my neck, recent rotator cup surgery, over weight, and NOT LISTENING to my elders. Casey ...........them football shape days are over and will distance themselves quickly .....stay after it. Ron G..........sounds like you're on track David....keep the dust off the treadmill Jim....elyptical is the way to go....just started myself......let Casey beat you to the top just to let him think he can

Wow, them pictures are making me want to forget about a meat elk and go for the big one. Thanks Gino for sharing. TJ

Never new leica made them in green ........them sure look like a pair of tasco to me. Just foolin around Casey, nice set up and good luck on your hunt. Will you be using them on Game Hauler's daugther's elk hunt? TJ

Good Birthday card of you and your Pop.

Put 25 lbs on since rotator cup surgery 4 months ago and decided enough was enough. Joined pure finess, 6 weeks for $19, and been walking 2 miles every day since the first of July. Them 12 oz curls are my down fall but really trying to leg up.

My heart & prayers go out to all the friends and families of those killed in such a tragic accident. May God Bless!

Glad to share. That's why they put them up there. Here are links to a couple of older articles on the RM G&F site. This one is the article on Sergio Orozcos P&Y world record Coues. World-Record Coues Buck! This one is an article about the mulies CW member John Noble, his brother and his dad killed on the Strip. 3 Bulls Down, 3 Bucks To Go -TONY Tony........... this is the first I seen of these articles. They are amazing to say the least. Thanks Tony for sharing with us. venadoslayer....I won't touch that one. TJ

Yes Dad!

Now that is where I draw the line. Your chances are looking good for next year. Good luck!

I hear what you're sayin. Can't beat that time of year during the rut. Good luck on next year's tag and all your hunts to come.
