Non-Typical Solutions

We drew 27 late December coues tags and I will be tickled pink if we get a crack at a buck no matter what size........

Post it......

Any feelings out there about Big Lake road getting paved from the Alpine side? I am curious as to the why and who makes those kind of decisions. One of my favorite roads to drive and see game. I have mixed feelings about the "improvement" civilized left and we civilized right.

Coach, this is one thing that has me concerned as well, on one hand it appears to be making access easier on the other hand clamping down on what roads are going to cost to be on and what roads are they going to go ahead and close down. Probably somewhere around 1973 my dad knocked a hole in the oil pan.......going from reservation to national forest crossing the cattle guard......and the mud and slop during the monsoons at McNary. I have been stuck in mud and snow on that road more times than I want to admit...I sure hate to see them put black top on it.......

Back in the 70's right there at 3 forks we called that slippery hill. We would leave Alpine right after work to get the last hours of fishing at Big Lake. We would walk the railroad bed on the back side where now there is a boat ramp. Days long gone. Slippery hill will never be the same.

I grew up in southern New Mexico, my dad was a farmer/rancher trying to raise grain and cattle on land that was pretty tough. It was a great area for rattle snakes and as a result at a young age I developed a phobia for snakes in general. Cole and I went out to take care of chickens this afternoon and this brought back a flashback of memories of finding rattlesnakes as a kid. Course this is just a bull snake and a nice sized one. What is hard to see in this picture is the swallow nest on the light fixture above which currently has chicks in it.

That is for sure....I remember passing by the Gage exit on our way to El Paso taking our pigs to the Southwest International Livestock Show.....one of the first places I remember my dad ever paying money for a motel and first time ever watching Professional wrestling on TV....we didn't get very good TV in Cotton City...

Lived in Cotton City went to school in Animas......great place for a kid to grow up, tough place to make a living.

Hind site....I wish I would have sat and watched from a distance could have been interesting for sure......

We hauled him off across the dirt road from us......I really don't mind the rat killers they just always startle me.....rattlesnakes on the other hand gotta go if I find them on my property.

That looks like some fun stuff there......

Cool picture, how did the fishing treat you???

You know why the clown couldn't juggle?? He didn't have the balls................

Don't forget arming kindergarten teachers!

Came the closest ever to clocking a whole pile of deer Saturday night just north of the Shumway cuts, 8 deer crossed as I was putting on the brakes praying that the car behind me was paying enough attention. Had my wife and son both hollering at me to go left or right to miss them all. Whew

Back somewhere between1990-95 when we were living in Ash Fork, Williams always seemed to be on water watch, I remember when their reservoir got so low it turned on them and you didn't dare drink tap water for fear of catching something. One of the problems they really struggle with is the difficulty they have getting water from underground. Parts of Flagstaff suffer the same problem. Course the drought being the biggest issue........ We just did a little turkey hunting over around Alpine this weekend an it was awful dry there as well.

Rage....those are some nice sheds.......the heavy snows this winter pushed all the bulls out of 9....

If you would move that huge rack so we could see it way cool picture...

This possibly could be the most perverted I have ever seen on CWT.....I made the mistake of browsing with my wife over my shoulder as I came across the little gal with the hand full of arrows........I had lots of splaining to do..........

That right there is definitely not fence sittin........good to hear from Lark.......let the perversion continue......

Heck of a deal there.....nice job you two.....

That would be a crying shame......

I was thinking of a similar device the other day.....cept this one would embed in the antler while still in the velvet then emit a beacon signal after the antler hit the ground so then I knew where to go find it........

No doubt you found a common ground in two posts....problem is you just got done calling anybody that didn't match up with your line of thinking ignorant bastards so now the common ground is no more........ What is the difference between you calling people ignorant bastards and Sterling or somebody else using the N word.........he has a billion dollars and I am assuming you don't, which is a huge assumption I realize but the original post is whether Sterling should get the punishment handed down by the NBA.......in my opinion it is all the same whether you have a billion or are just on some hunting web site doing community service......

For those trying to keep up with this very sophisticated discussion........ Nihilism - n. - 1. (A) the denial of the existence of any basis for knowledge or truth ( the general rejection of customary beliefs in morality, religion, etc. 2 the belief that there is no meaning or purpose in existence. 3 POLITICS (A) the doctrine that existing social, political and economic institutions must be completely destroyed in order to make way for new institutions. Just had to look that one up and broaden my scrabble abilities.......but honestly if you look at the current leadership we have at the helm, they seem to be pretty bent on that #3 seems to fit like Cinderellas slipper.......
