WOW, that's gonna be hard to top. Congrats to both of you. Love to see preparation payoff.

When this virus first hit the US we didn't know anything about it and disease experts said it "could" kill millions. Out of an abundance of caution, the government said wear masks and lock down , so we did. As more and more info is learned, we see the death rate is less than 1%. And hearing how a large majority of people that catch it have less than life threatening consequences, I for one do not see this as worthy of killing the economy and our personal freedoms over. I feel like a sheep when I'm told I have to wear a mask. I'm not saying it isn't killing people, but everyone knows those numbers put out by "officials" are questionable when we hear that if you die of anything and you test positive for covid, you are included in these numbers, even if covid wasn't the cause of the death, but a side note. If someone you know has died of covid, you have my sympathy. It now seems to have morphed into a political control issue, and that disgusts me.

Prayers sent, best wishes to you.

That was great, thanks.

yes

I have the SIG Kilo850 for archery and I love it. I can range black 3-D targets and always get a reading where as my Leica wouldn't be able to give me a read out on dark colored objects

I think I lost mine in a boating accident...yeah, that's what happened to it.

Cowboys and Devil House

Minder Binders, Freddys down the road (aka the Library), and Sawmill were some good ASU area bars

The South Twin and Round-up Drive-ins.

Sometimes you can glass a slope for hours and not see one , but when one does finally show itself , it's magical. Congrats and good job sticking it out

When the river bottom flooded and Mill ave Bridge was one of only two places to cross. Sitting in traffic to get home (with a six pack to help kill the time-relax, there were two of us and we were young and bulletproof) When Apache Trail was the main East- West route in the east valley

The first time I had lion meat, I was surprised how delicious it was. I get a lion tag every year in January when I get my archery deer tag.

Congrats on a really nice buck. Time to start getting the bow ready for January!

You must have been shooting them in clover to still see their tails at point. JK, I know that breed can be pretty tenacious.

Looks like a great time. I've been pheasant hunting one time and loved it. Don't think we used wiener dogs though. LOL

Cringeworthy

My very first deer I ever shot was in 1985. It was a large Coues that grossed 126 and netted 115 4/8. It received 2nd place that year (I informed the AWF that my official score card had an error that I found and no one else had noticed, and it lowered my first place deer from 118+ to 115 3/4) and I was awarded the first ever "Honorable Mention" trophy by The AZ Wildlife Federation. They said that the new category of Honorable Mention was meant for just this sort of situation. If I hadn't already bought my copy back then, I would scoop up one of these. Best of luck selling them. Doug.

I love mine, plenty comfortable and room to roll around a little

Congrats. It sounds like you guys have a ton o meat for the freezer with all your success this year. That spike should be some good eating.

-i discovered that pulling on big tuna I haven't heard of that one before, but I have heard it called "flogging the dolphin"

I hate the wind. I wont even say that word when I'm hunting or working. I'm a painter and the wind can ruin my day trying to mask and spray exteriors. I refer to it as "the W word, or Mariah, but I wont say it out loud. We all have our issues and the W word is one of mine.

Those are two nice Coues bucks- I can see why you loved it. Congrats to both of you.

Now that's a shooter. Nice!!!

Awesome! thanks for letting us be in on the adventure.
