it's kind of a long drive for a lotta folks, but "THE PORK SHOP" has the best ham anywhere. it ain't like candy like honeybaked and it ain't salty as heck like some others. they smoke and cure em right there. Greg and his crew really know what they're doing. i hate spiral cut ham. it just turns a ham into lunch meat. they are located on the far east end of combs road, just before schnepf farms road. south side. you can't miss em because of all the cars parked out front. they also have the best bacon, sausage, brats, etc anywhere and you can get fresh pork also. they make green chili burros outta smoked pork that are somethin' else. try em out, you won't be dissapointed.

then why does this diet mt dew i'm holding have em? there ain't anything made without a tracking number anymore. i don't know how specific they are, but they are enough that he couldn't get out of it and they told him they use it whenever the opportunity arises. believe it or not, i don't care, but i am right and you're not. just trying to educate folks to what can happen. Lark.

i'm right, you're not. it's that simple. maybe one of the wardens that lurk around here will back it up. so say what you want, but it has happened. i know a guy that it happened to. when he told em to prove they were his beer cans they proved it with the photos. and he lost his license for 3 years. and it has happened other times too. personally, i thought it was a pretty neat trick. kinda shifty, but it worked. i think they were laying for the guy anyway, but it did happen to him and it has happened to others. game wardens and forest rangers can be just as sneaky as other cops. one time i was at big lake fishing and there were some gangbanger actin' guys in a boat making a big deal outta smokin' weed. there were a couple rough lookin' guys with scraggly beards and stuff that sorta cruised up close and then pulled out badges and arrested the guys. it was funny watchin' em try to get these guys, handcuffed, outta their boat into the undercover game warden's boat. if you think these guys can't use dirty tricks don't whine you get busted. too bad they didn't do it here. Lark.

what a rotten deal. i really feel for ya. i think i still have my old pse fireflight that you are welcome to use if you need it. don't have any arrows or anything anymore. Lark.

hey vegas jeep, what do you mean it says nothing about fire? what does smoking and hot embers mean? i guess there is no chance of a little breeze whipping up a flame. one of game warden and forest ranger tricks is to come into your camp when you're away. take any kinda cans you have laying around and put em by your license plate where the serial number shows and take a photo of em together and then come back after you left and if there is a can with a number left on it, you're busted. i know it happens. i know a guy that had it happen to him. so if you want to think different, that's fine, but it does happen. and don't try to trivialize this. after the year we had with fires anyone who does this really needs a tune up. and leaving trash in inexcusable. there is no way to rationalize or justify this kinda stuff. Lark.

if the azgfd sees this stuff they can cite you, and you can lose your license, hunting and fishing, for up to 5 years. just a few beer cans in a fire ring can do it. there are also little serial number deals on beer and soda cans that can be used to prove who done it. as stupid as these guys are, they probably left something with their name and address on it in the trash. need to find out who this guy is and make him give up his cw sticker. guys like this need to be weeded out. we need to self police ourselves. rat these sorry jerks out. Lark.

only reason i even use a gun is because it's against the law to stab em and i can't shoot a bow anymore because i wore my shoulder out. i'm so sneaky i can just slide right in and stab em with a big knife, especially midget deer. and when i use a gun i use my .270 with my special handloads that fly perfectly straight for over a mile before they start to drop any. but i still have a range finder and use it often. mainly for when i'm with someone with an inferior weapon, which is anything other than "MY" .270. and to prove to em that i can estimate ranges with my nekked eyeball to the nearest yard at any range. just tellin' em how far it is don't work, i hafta show em electronically. stinkin' technology. Lark.

when i hunt elk i always carry several knives. i never go without my wyoming knife and saw. only use the knife to unzip em with and use the saw all over the place. elk are a lot easier to gut if you roll em on their back, unzip the belly and split the brisket all the way to the windpipe and then start gutting. i carry big yellow handled camullus 2 blade lock back called a yellowjacket and i have a big old, old timer with the carbon steel blade. these will usually get me to the truck. one thing to always remember, elk hair is full of dirt. never cut on the hairside. it will take the edge off just like sticking your knife in the ground. flesh side only. another thing to do is to really learn how to sharpen a knife. my kids have started using these new interchangeable blade deals and man they work great too. i think Amanda even sells em. Lark.

maybe this can be like the big archery elk soap opera we had earlier this fall. lets us see if someone knows someone who knows someone who is willing to fink on the sorry rat with the cw sticker that left the smokin' fire and trash. and then he can defend his actions as really being ok and necessary and what the guy saw really wasn't as bad as he said it was, even tho one speck o' trash and even one warm ember is 1000 times too much. let the detective work and rumors begin. as far as i'm concerned, leaving trash and a fire is as bad and maybe even worse than a lotta the other stuff that gets folks goats. poachin' included. it is infinitely worse than driving by a tank that has a "sign" on it or messin' with a trail camera or sitting on water that some other guy thinks he owns. if this kinda stuff don't really piss ya off, i mean like @$$ whoopin' piss ya off then, you need to take up skateboardin' or be a vegitarian or some other stupid waste o' time. we just went through the worst fire season ever in this state and are gonna be dealing with it's affects for generations and some stupid, slobby, no good, jerk, dumb@$$ that lurks around here does somethin' like this? i ain't kiddin' ya, this is inexcusable and i wanna hear from the guy that did it. one of those little plastic rings that is under the lid on a bottle o' water is too much trash. anything you can see from the road needs pounded up the @$$ of the guy that left it. a burning fire? well, i won't even say what i think about that. this ain't right guys. especially from anyone who uses this sight. Lark.

now that's a good bull. good job all around. excellent bull. Lark.

it was a 4x6 that scores in the high 90's. i was a lot younger than i am now and it was on the roughest mountain i've ever climbed and i have climbed it many times since and taken more of em in their. also shot a 9 foot lion on a coues hunt their once. i think the main reason i have bad knees is because of that rough mountain. Lark.

a guy told me saw a film that was something similar to that but it was because the best man got the wrong movies for the bachelor party. it almost blinded him. Lark.

hey, asu has been to a couple too. and they even won one of em. and if schnieder wasn't an idiot they woulda won the other one. and asu ain't in the state of illnoise either. Lark.
-
i'll betcha a bunch they don't see any roses this year. unless it's on a bottle o' cheap wine. only reason i watched the game is because i hate ohio state and wanted to see em get stomped because i knew illnoise was havin' a good year. but nooooooo, illnoise looked like a buncha idjuts out there. they had so many chances to win it wernt funny. ooooohweeee they looked bad. if they can't beat osu this year, they ain't gonna go to no decent bowl. now i'm watchin the devils look like imps. man they shoulda won this one tonight but they have way too many stupid idjuts too. can't believe some of the stupid penalties. college football coachin' has to be the worst job on the planet. they need a pistol and need to just shoot some o' the guys on their team to make an example for the other ones. asu really missed a chance tonight. and illnoise better get ready for the weedeater bowl or the maybe hormel spam bowl. if they'd both played a little better maybe we'da seen a rematch in the rose bowl. but not this year. Lark.
-
is that same illnoise i watched stink up the place today? if asu wins tonight they are on the inside track to the rose bowl. unfortunately for cat fans, who of a is continuing their boycott of the rose bowl. Lark.

i'm used to havin' a couple dozen dogs with me sometimes when i hunt. bears and lions anyway some guys i know of from back east came out to new mex on an elk hunt on an exclusive, private, really slick ranch. one of em brought his dog. i can't remember what it was. dorky bird dog or some deal. anyway, the dog was just a pet and had never been around guns and they guy really loved it. and it was a good dog too. really friendly. they decided to check their rifles and at the first shot his dog ran off and was never seen again. it was really a sad deal. poor guy was heartbroke. so not only do you need to make sure it's cool with other folks, but you need to make sure it's cool with the dog. i also hate yappy, rude, barkin' @$$ed dogs and their owners are usually about the same kinda folks that have kids that act the same way. Lark.

i called the A/C guy and he's supposed to call back soon. will give you a holler as soon as he does. only A/C i've ever done was on my old pickup. Lark.

depends a lot on the caliber too. some calibers, one twist is fine. other calibers need a different twist for about every 20 grain increase in weight. actually, what makes the biggest difference is the bullet length. longer needs more twist. i have an old .250/3000 savage that will shoot up to 100 gr bullets fine. go up to 117 and they will keyhole at 100 yards. every shot. twist is extremely inportant to accuracy. have the wrong twist for a bullet and you won't be able to hit anything. no matter what you do.

fine job man, fine job. Lark.

i think coues deer, and muleys and elk and pronghorns, etc, are where they want to be and if there are cattle there it doesn't bother em much. i also think deer and other big game are a lot more individual in their traits than folks think. just because one animal does something, it doesn't mean they all do it and just because a bunch of em might do something that seems similar it doesn't mean there aren't individuals that act contrary to the rest. really big old bucks and bulls get real solitary and tend to move away from the rest of the herd because they know a bunch of critters are a lot easier to find than one lone stud. they learn that solitary is a lot safer than in numbers. even if a couple big bucks or bulls do kinda hang around each other, they stay a fair piece apart most of the time. in the same area, and they might socialize a little, but when they bed and feed, they are alone. think of all the times you've seen a number of bucks or bulls together. is there ever a great big old one with a gigantic rack? nope. you will see sometimes a buncha really nice bucks or bulls together with some smaller ones, but when one gets to the age and size that he knows he's different, they move away from the rest of em. don't know if they are more aware of their rack or if they just get tired of being around kids or what the deal is, but they do become aware and get real solitary and real nocturnal. if a cowboy moves a big buncha cattle into a pasture, i think it will have an affect of the game until the cows scatter out and settle down, in the immediate area they are in to start with, but i don't think it has a long term affect on the deer. the deer are gonna naturally migrate to where the feed and water is best.

wolves on the Strip and the Kaibab
.270 replied to bonuspointjohn's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
every so called mexican gray they have has dog dna. from what i remember reading, they had one wolf that they felt was pure bred. the others were all part dog of various percentages. been a long time since i read up on that part, but that's how i remember it. and they started with only few animals, so everything is inbred as heck. they have to innoculate them for parvo and other diseases that don't attack wild wolves. when they have a litter, they have to catch em and give em all puppy shots and boosters and everything else. for life. sound like wild animals to you if they have to round them up on a regular basis for shots? a lot of the litters are destroyed because the dad was a cow dog, because the "wolves" don't always have much interest in females in heat. i saw a photo of a cow dog and a wolf "hung up". there are so many stupid things going on with this program that it's makes a guy sick if he really investigates it. if the azgfd would make a stand with the sportsmen, i think it would be a real positive step. Lark. -
well TJ found something that i ain't the smartest guy there is on. i do know a real good A/C guy tho. Lark.
