    Stray Cats

    I understood the new antifreeze was not poison anymore....seems I heard this maybe 5 years ago. Due to people usually drain it down the curb and pets drink it. Anyone know for sure? I have the same problems with strays in east Mesa. The guy behind me feeds them. They nest in his shed. They kill our birds, poop in my garden, etc... mostly at night, so it's hard to get them in your sights. I'm thinking a trap-line may be the answer. Just have to make trips to the desert a couple times a week to feed the coyotes.

    Even if the results are out this week, most of us won't get through to G&F until 2:00am Monday morning....after the system crash and thousands of busy signals.

  9. Interesting reading! If citizens could challenge polliticians, that would certainly keep them in line.

    Best GPS?

    I bought the Garmin 450t used off this site from a guy in Texas for $100. I loaded a free topo map on it, from a website (can't remember the name). It has worked quite well. The screen brightness is dark in the sunlight. I had to go into the menu and turn off the colors. The white map shows up much better. It is a way better option than my old Magellan that didn't have map capability. I believe the newer Garmin models have fixed the dark screen issue.

    2011 Polaris Ranger Tires for sale

    I am wondering if these will fit my Arctic Cat 500 ATV. I think the lug pattern is different. I'll have to check the tire size when I get home.

    How about adding a Lost and Found forum?

    Thanks Amanda! Good job. This should help with exposure to L&F posts.
  17. There are several lost and found posts throughout the year and no specific forum to post to. I recently posted found items and wasn't sure of the best forum to post to so I posted to three different ones.

    Almost ready for her next bow!

    Evan, she is a cutie! That is a fun age. I remember when my boys were that age....lots of fun. Above all, make your outings/learnings fun and she will stick with it. I find that young ladies brought up in the outdoors, learning to shoot/hunt, are well adjusted and more self-sufficient...a good foundation for the rest of their life.
  19. God bless all these people that make miracles possible! Thank your sister-in-law for me. My sister recieved a cochlear implant several years ago. From birth she was completely deaf in one ear and 90% loss in the other. For the first time in her life she was able to hear birds sing, hear her shoes squeek on the floor, enjoy music, etc... (the things we take for granted). She was so inspired that she quit her job with a large insurance company and hired on with Dallas Hearing Foundation. She became their Patient Advocate, offering counseling/support to new patients. After several years with DHF, she moved back to our home town in IN where she joined a similar operation. It is her lifes work.

    Bobcat and Javelina Finished

    Wow! Very nice!
  21. Welcome. Hunting these coues deer is nothing like eastern whitetails...so you're starting out right by asking all these questions. It will take a short paragraph to answer each question, so I don't have that time right now either. I am sure you will get a lot of input in the next couple days. In short, get the best binos you can afford...at least 10x...12x or 15x is better. Also a good tripod. Be prepaired to sit and glass for many hours. You have a few questions on field care of the meat. Be prepared to skin and quarter in the field, and pack out. Typically, we have mild temperatures during deer season, so usually it is critical to get the hide off ASAP so the meat can start to cool. The flavor of the meat will be affected. The quickest way to "get in the game" is to hook up with someone experienced in hunting coues. As TJ stated, hang on 'cause the ride is a blast.

    Making javelina sausage today!

    Those recipes sound really good. I need to get a good grinder and try this myself. I usually just take the meat to Southwest. "...so I mixed up about 4 TB of that plus salt and some brown sugar and some wine." Amanda, I like to drink wine while I cook too.
  25. Beautiful buck!! He's gotta be pushing 115". I'd put a lot of time and energy into lettin' the air outa that buck.
