I had a tikka in 243 that loved the federal blue box ammo. It was the cheapest stuff you could buy at sportsmans. It was 100 soft point I think. Not sure it would be the best choice of bullet for elk, but if he makes a good shot I'm sure it would work.

I saw them right after they first put them up. I really wish someone would have caught them pounding those poles through the saguaros. Stupid people! I've never seen anyone out there shooting at them. The last time I was out there, it looked like most of them were gone.

I've got some friends helping a kid in 5bs on a bull hunt and they could use some help. Tyler is here hunting from California through the Hunt of a Lifetime program. He has lymphoma and is currently in remission. He has been here hunting since Friday morning with his father and uncle. They were all supposed to leave today to go home, but decided to stay to the end of the hunt. A couple of my friends volunteered for the program and have been helping him since they got here. The bulls have been very call shy and its been a tough hunt for them so far. They've had a couple close calls but we would really like to get him a bull. If anyone would be willing to help in any way, can you please PM me. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't ask for anyone's hunting spots or help. I would really like to see Tyler get his elk though. Thank you guys!

Thank you sir, that's very nice of you to offer that!

Unfortunately Tyler was unable to harvest a bull. He did get three opportunities though. The last night of the hunt they had a nice bull come in. One of my buddies was able to cow call and stop the bull. Tyler only had a short time to shoot, and forgot to take the safety off the crossbow. Bummed that it didn't work out for him. It sounds like he had a good time though. This was his first hunt and hopefully he will get to experience many more. It sounds like he might come out in January for a javelina hunt. I really hope he does. Thank you everyone that pm'd me to try and help him. This forum and all the people here are awesome. Good luck to everyone on the upcoming hunts. The best time of the year is here!

If I had the extra money I'd be all over this. I've always wanted a 257.

I've received messages from 4 or 5 people. Thank you everyone! I will let you all know how he does. I wish I was up there with them, instead of stuck at work!

This for the archery hunt that ends on Thursday. He has a crossbow permit though.

Ttt I know someone needs a new tripod! Last price drop $200
-
I finally broke down and bought a new tripod so time to sell the old one. Vortex CBX carbon fiber tripod and Manfroto 128rc fluid head. I've had this tripod for a couple of years and it's been great to me! I'm almost positive the tripod itself is a Bogen that was relabeled for Vortex. Has lots of cosmetic scratches but functions perfect. All legs lock and extend. 67" tall and weighs about 5 lbs on my scale. Top sections are covered in foam, and are a little chewed up on the inside. Comes with one qd plate. Looking to get $300

Sorry for giving you crap Lance! This store reminds me off the Flagstaff store also. Seems like they are able to fit most of the important stuff in there though. The store is at 103rd Ave and McDowell. -

Where you been Lance? They've been open for a month at least. Lol had to give you a hard time! They must have just done their grand opening. I only know this because we did all that landscaping. I delivered some stuff for the guys out there over Labor Day weekend and stopped in and spent some money. Is it just me, or are their stores getting smaller? -
Thank you and good luck to you and your son on the up coming hunts! I know you guys will do good.

I'm good with any day next week except Thursday. There is no way your going to make everyone happy on the night. I'm good with $10 or $20. I think you should have the money before the draft happens though.
-
I want to join again and I'm fine with a $ league, but.....is there anyway we could do the draft during the week? I'm going to be out of cell range this weekend and really don't want to have to auto draft. If I have to though, I will
