I have a nice Bear Kodiak recurve to sell. PM sent

You have the right idea. Just get out there and do it. Learning a new area is a time thing. Just go hunt what looked good to you. Deer are there! Find them. Enjoy exploring. Don't expect anyone to give you what they spent years learning. Instead... enjoy just getting out and exploring. I'm still learning 21, 22, 23 and I've been hunting them for many, many years. Go out year round as well.

Love my Springfield XD 45. Accurate, easy to handle, well built, and powerful. When fronted with a larger critter, like a bear, I'd certainly feel safer with the 45 than any smaller caliber. That said, a revolver with longer barrel would give you more accuracy at a distance.

I am a much more calm person now that I have learned to embrace a "whatever" mentality. Not much bothers me anymore... it's just "whatever" and off I go to do my thing. They have to live with themselves and their own Karma, and I have mine... I like mine better.

Thats the main reason I switched to bow. Now am willing to rifle hunt but the country is much more remote. Seems to be better educated hunters way in deep.

Greg was a neighbor of mine around 12 ish years ago. What happened to him?

Maybe try some Weaver rings and mounts!Never liked weaver mounts. I used the Leupold one piece base and it fits fine. Thanks for all the help.

azshtr,I pulled this image up from the thread I have in Other Big Game. If you look closely at my rifle, you'll see the front base overhangs the bolt area because I had the same problem you had encountered. Also, note how the rear base has the thicker area to the rear, as well. The ring slots in both bases were offset, so either one was reversible. And these were Leupold bases and rings used with a Leupold scope! I chose to reverse the front one because that interfered less when filling the magazine and most importantly, if I had reversed the rear base, the eye relief would have been too much because the scope would have been too far forward.
Thats what I need. I emailed Leupold and have not heard back yet. Thanks for all the help.

I searched high and low and didn't find that mount selector site. Thanks for the help.
-
That was directly from the Game and Fish web site. Check there for a lot of help. Its actually a pretty good source of information.

I'm in need of advice or a point in the right direction. I have a Savage 110 270 and just bought a used Leupold VXII scope to mount on it. I purchased a set of Nikon mounts and rings but the scope is about 1/4 inch to short to fit (meaning the 1" barrel is not long enough by 1/4 inch). The mounts are not adjustable. The mounts are 5 1/2 inch apart center to center. I don't know that much about my options and don't see any help or info on the web. The weaver style mounts that came with the rifle leave a lot to be desired but did mount closer together than the Nikons.
It seems that A) This scope is shorter than others. I don't see any specs on any scope listing the 1" barrel length.
Or
I need mounts that are not centered over the screw holes but rather sit closer together.Or C) I need a gun smith to mount this.
I don't want to by a new scope. I don't see any rings that would be different.
Any smart person can jump in with advice... well you all can jump in anyways
Thanks

I'm not sold. I don't see anything holding the head up and every dead dear I've seen with the head held in this position has an open mouth. Maybe they froze it but other than that it doesn't look right. This looks like a photoshop job to me.

I have left over tags from last year. I'll go 10,000

Not only do they sell popcorn the local game seams to like it. Perhaps you could use it to set a bait situation?

How did he get the head to stay up like that?

I know that unit well. Go in through the Papago Park side and up towards the Hunts Tomb area. Good glassing from just over the tall barbed wire fence. Lots of great game. However you are accessing through a park system so you need to stop in and declare your intentions of hunting with the park ranger office. I don't think they allow gun hunting so bow only. Let us know how you did... or how long you did

My scientific method is foolproof! I averaged all scores and my guess is... 119 2/8
When can I collect my prize!

Sometimes if you insert the card into a cell phone or another type of camera it will reformat it, as stated. It happened to me with one of my game cams, where I used another camera to try and view the images but they were unnoticeable. That's my guess.Yes but remember just because its been "reformatted" all that really took place was the directory was wiped out. The data is still there till it gets overwritten by new data. Thats why you should never dump, sell, give away a computer or hard drive without first doing a secure reformat / wipe of all data. The secure wipe puts random data on the entire disc eliminating any chance of getting information. (actually even then the serious hacker types can get some data.)

car or van. Direct another adult to call ahead and alert the emergency
care facility that antivenin treatment may be needed;
I tried to carry a 100lb lab that was bitten. I didn't make it 1/4 mile. I couldn't imagine trying to carry a hunting partner! Perhaps if there were enough in the hunting party. But I wouldn't want to waste time recruiting new help.
The dog did make it.

To recover any lost images use something like this
http://www.adrc.net/data_recovery_software/index.html
Don't do anything else with the disc or you will be overwriting the old data with new data. The recovery software ignores any directory and looks at the disc data and shows you all files on the disc.

It could be that the directory got messed up and the pics are still there. But if you formatted it would have messed up the chance of recovery. A picture gets taken and recorded on disc, but when you open the disc what you see is the directory as to where things are put. If the directory gets messed up it looks as if nothing is on the disc. In reality you can use a recovery program to "see" what is on the disc. You still could if you reformatted but some of the data is probably overwritten.
