awww, you're gonna chop shop a Classic sporter? They're the last quality well crafted gun to be made. My dad bought me one for my 12th birthday in 7mm STW, except the bolts on the other side on mine! Mine's killed 34 deer, 2 elk, 2 antelope, 1 moose and 2 oryx. It still shoots SUB moa with 150gr Scirrocco's cranking out at 3400. Good luck with the build!!!

I don't think it is, but it sorta looks like this buck!? http://forums.coueswhitetail.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=32169

Doesn't happen! it does...the odds are really terrible...but it can happen. Must have put in by himself? NO, it truly doesn't.... Last year there were 535 applicants in 1st and 2nd choice for 75 tags. Unless this year 455 less people put in for that tag, there were NO 3B rut archery tags left after 1st and second pass. Thus the only way you could have drawn it is if you got your hunt codes mixed around and put it as 2nd choice. You don't have a slim chance, or even a snowballs chance in heck, you have NO chance of drawing that tag on 3rd choice.

Well if they only gave away first choices then most of the people I know wouldn't have drawn. So I guess they did look at second choices, even though they don't say the second on the results sheet. Case closed I'd say.

What he said.....

+1,000,000 Same boat for me

Haha... these are on backpage as well, 2 rifles in .270 Winchester Magnum. If they truly are .270 Win Mag, I'll buy em both, they will probably be worth a fortune someday!

Is that one bull piebald??? That's awesome!
-
congrats on the tag! you should've been guaranteed that tag 7 or 8 years ago though? Last year no one put in with over 12 points and 9 was max point pool.
-
HAHA! The results are technically "out" and there are still rumors floating around!!! I love it! Actually I hate it, still gettng an error message here. My buddies sister is dating the IT guy at the state of AZ and he said that the site will be back up when he gets to work tomorrow morning, after he has his coffee of course.

Online? I just checked and mine aren't up yet? They took down the spring results, but it just has my info and my points status as of 11/18/2011????? Now you've got me worried!!!! Pretty sure I didn't draw as my cc never got hit, but now I'm worried my app didn't go through!!!
-
That's awesome. I might have to try some of those and see if they'll fly in my rig. Do they make 125 gr?

Does he have to hold the ears back to hide the ear tag!?! Either way cool video, where did the arrow enter?

Just remember that you DIY public land hunters out in these western mountains and deserts are the minority. You wouldn't believe the amount of people that hunt in midwestern and eastern states. I was blown away when I moved here and had a hard time actually finding people that hunted, especially in the valley. In MN, WI, MI, etc, EVERYONE hunts, and they hunt turkeys and eastern whiteys, over food plots if they're lucky enough to have 5 acres to plant one on. You guys are very fortunate to call this place home and be able to have endless public land at your disposal. I really enjoy the shows about western DIY hunts, or even guided ones, and change it in a hurry when they are teaching you how to plant clover with a quad, but I also keep in mind that the target audience out there unfortunately isn't us.

Colorado elk is due today?!? I don't think your dad drew CO yet.
-
Do you really have a 31" draw? I would suggest going in to Ross Outdoors and having those guys fit you again just to be sure. I worked in an archery pro shop for a few years in college and found that 90% of people are shooting a bow that's to long for them, especially these days when a string loop and release are pretty much standard for everyone. I've only seen a couple people that are truly a 31" draw, and they were big dudes. You can't go wrong with any of the major companies. This neck of the woods seems to be PSE country, but anything from Hoyt, mathews, or bowtech would be a good way to go. Try them all out and see what you like. Pay attention to how the draw cycle feels to you and how it feels upon release. They're all quiet these days, and all pretty fast, so don't get hung up on particulars, just find one that feels good to you. Good luck with the goat tag, what unit?

horrible problem to have!!!
-
looks like a couple of different standard issue very nice 3 pt coues deer. Definitely not the same buck IMO.
-
You get one?!? You prick, you got my Peaks tag!
-
Happy birthday Dan!
-
Pending just means it isn't approved by your bank yet. All charges are pending right away, it may not show up on your balance side, but it will show as a deduction in your available credit. I would assume the only way they could do the charges is to do them as the draw occurs. Someone is always the first one drawn and so on. Lets just hope these first people had a good first choice! Then they work their way through the names as they are drawn, giving them tags as they are available. So if you put 4B late rifle for first choice and your card was hit already, you made bad call and probably could have pulled an early rifle tag etc.

Letter from the President of the RMEF
yotebuster replied to TLH's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
WOW! Hypocrisy at it's finest! The RMEF maybe needs to reconsider their use of the Double H ranch in NM if they are going to jump on the "anti HB2072" bandwagon! Sounds like one hand is scratching the typical everyday AZ elk hunters back, while the other hand is under the politicians desk... I realize I'm talking about two separate states, but this is the same idea. They're trying to make all of us think they are on our side to keep our $40 a year subscriptions coming their way. I haven't been a member of RMEF for 10 years and never will be again.
