    Wow 2013

    The football season cannot end fast enough this year, two games to go and probably a lowly bowl game. Denker is hard to watch and just isn't a big time QB ...give the kid credit.... I could never play any position as good as he does QB. The Arizona fans are terrible only 35,000 in attendance on a great day... if it makes any ASU fan feel better your team is peaking,UA is sinking,...and can win with your QB having a horrible game. It is great see UA Basketball just signed another 5 start recruit... all eyes are looking at the Michigan game (even though UNLV will be a good game)

    What rifle scope do you use?

    Vortex Razor,Bushell Elite 4200, and Leupolod Var III LR. There is no comparison in optic quality the Vortex is by far much better than the other two... HOWEVER, the Leupold is a great scope and weighs much less...the Bushnell eh.... Okay for the $$.

    New Mexico Bull

    Made it back from New Mexico safe and sore.... a friend and I were fortunate to draw a 16B New Mexico rifle tag for the second hunt. For those that are not familiar with 16B, it is a completely wilderness area. After scouting trips in the summer we decided to hire a packer to pack our gear into the unit as doing it on foot would have been almost impossible. Our hunt started off with a major problem. We met our packer at the trail-head and exchanged the normal signatures and the rest of the money. Our packer provided a sheet of paper. On the paper there were two GPS coordinates, one was pointed out (some time goes by and we enter the coordinates into our GPS). We take off on foot ahead of the packer and arrive at the location (surprisingly never passed by the packer on horses). We could not find our gear, thankfully we rented a satellite phone from PHI Satellite Phone in Scottsdale (great person to deal with) and called the Outfitter. We were about 3 miles away from the correct location (this was after hiking just short of 4 miles)....it was now 2 pm and we had to double time it to the location our gear was at. In the Gila 3 miles on foot may as well be 50.... it is a long way. Getting to the area at dark, we had the hardest time finding our gear. We took minimal items.... no food.... and limited water as we expected a 3 hour hike.... now…. 9 hours later we were about out of gas, as luck would have it, we found our gear. I want to be clear, I am not totally blaming the packer for us ending up at the wrong location. HOWEVER I sure learned valuable lessons 1. walk with your packer to the location 2. review a detailed specific map of exactly where your gear is. 3. spend the extra $$ and ride in on horses. Now on to the hunt…..the weather was warm and we herd no bugles at night..... this was the second rifle hunt, we were not expecting to hear bugles......merely hoping to hear one or two. The first day came and went without seeing a single elk. The second day we hiked a ridge together and split up. I went towards a distant mountain... luckily bugling was herd mid-morning coming from the dark, nasty, burned side of the mountain. Glassing from the opposite ridge, I could not see the ground of the hill side the bull was bugling from. Slowly moving in, a cow was spotted about 90 yds away, with the rifle on the shooting sticks I caught movement, I could see a bull walking towards the cow, only seeing the 4ths and 5ths I made up my mind to shoot. Having a limited window to shoot, I touched the trigger and the 6.5 x 284 dropped the bull. I called the packer and I was met at camp two days later. We rode horses to the deboned bull and life was good. The horse packed the elk out (and I got to ride a horse there and back something I was not expecting so the Outfitter made up for the extra walking I did on the first day). Unfortunately my friend’s tag was unfilled because of a rifle mishap…. Thanks for reading.

    100% on-line applications

    Pretty funny people go on-line to complain about the on-line process..... did anybody watch South Park this week? "If payment fails, the department will make three attempts within two business days to contact you and notify you that your payment has been declined" Seems pretty fool proof to me. Get rid of the paper apps immediately and post draw results within 2 weeks of deadline.
  16. I have been looking at the Kodiak canvas tents, seem super easy to setup, cost around $500. I am like you, have a trailer but need something that allows me to get a little further back and tow my Ranger ( or camp from the Ranger).....

    Trimble/ Cabelas GPS Cell phone app.

    I have it and think its worthless. Google Earth is better and I use my GPS not my phone to mark wavepoints. The ballistic program is basic at best....if I am blood trailing I prefer to use toilet paper or survey tape. Just my thoughts....

    ASU/ Wisconsin

    The coach said they screwed up..... your mistaking? This game itself will not make a difference for either team getting to the Rose Bowl because neither are going to be in the National Championship this year. WHY would they have spiked the ball on that play? There was NO reason, the Badgers just got a first down, plenty of time on the play clock. Spiking the ball would have left the ball on the right hash mark.... the QB wanted to center the ball on field for the FG, then spike the ball, then kick the FG. The whistle blew with 14 seconds left in the game, ball should have been spotted with at least 8 seconds, spike. Kick the FG with 3 seconds left on the clock, clock expires no kick off needed. .

    ASU/ Wisconsin

    haha, post this again next week and see if its still true. i doubt theyll get by stanford but ill be going for them. oh yeah http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9681505/pac-12-conference-reprimands-officials-arizona-state-wisconsin-game Amazing the refs should be severely reprimanded if not fired, too early to tell what the outcome is,but what if Wisconsin misses a BCS bowl because of it (not saying Wisconsin is a BCS team....I think they are far from it).
