    What is this? Marker for buried treasure?

    Never heard that.

    PIT BBQ

    Feel like I just wasted 3 minutes of my life. He needs a whole lot less face time and more detail. Did he toss dirt right on the burlap?

    Hearing aids for hunting?

    He just needs to get a hearing aid.

    Pop-Up camper pro's and con's

    Just rent one. Waaaaay more cost effective when you need to use it by 10X$. Buy new, lots of depreciation.

    Sold

    Good price for some great glass, plus now would be a good time to send them in for a once over.
  7. Have him start practicing shooting from a standing position without stix, start with clays at 50 yards then a 6" paper plate at 100 yards.

    Call and talk to Chris Rollins. 480-221-3384 or just text him. He has a guy that can tow your truck to his shop in Mesa next to Caswells. He is looking for a bigger shop if anyone knows of one. He has worked on my truck more than a few times.

    I think you are on the wrong site. That won't appeal to anyone here.

    Too early?

    Spring in the high country.... the wind always roars! Never had that problem in 5 hunts over 30 years in 1, 23 and 27.
  14. I need that T-Shirt that says "THE JOB THAT ATE MY BRAIN". Since I completely forgot about it. Glad I bought one of your box calls two years ago. It has accounted for one Merimans here and a Goulds in MX. I am going to OK next year for Rio's and I'm sure it will work there too.

    hey Amanda this is a crock of shoot...

    Sad to see members here stoop to this level of self indulgence, profanity lacks sanity. Very disappointed in a lot of people on here, a well respected public forum. Pretty disgusting attitudes but I guess some people just feel the need to prove something.

    Tanning Snakes

    Use way less alcohol. I use about 10% of 90%. I lay it flat and put a toothpick each inch then roll it up, put it in a small pill bottle and leave it for about 4 days.

    My son doesn't want to go Elk Hunting!!!

    Offering up Eurasians to Adam is like waving a crack pipe in front of Richard Pryor.

    Too early?

    The ones I have seen roosting up in ponderosa pines were 30 to 40' up. Two different trees were about 50' up on a slope but two other trees in different locations were on flat ground just off a creek. I mexico last year we had some that were roosted up in beech trees on the edge of a wash in another flat area and again in mexico during a january coues hunt I watched two groups of birds walk up the wash below me just after sundown then fly about 40 yards into some trees that were about 30 feet up on a slope. bluedevil it sounds like you have a pretty good area located. Are you planning on hitting any of the turkey seminars coming up? I have found that they will stay on the roost until it is light enough for them to see there aren't any predators moving around before they fly down which is usually about 15 minutes before sunrise. I have seen two birds taken before the sun came up and both times the birds were on the ground for a good five minutes. The first time I had my son on his second hunt and we knew where the birds were as we saw them scratching it up in a plowed field the day before and sat and watched them walk single file from the field about 100 yards then disappear into some trees. We snuck in early the next morning and waited for them to fly down and after about 10 minuted they made their way past us giving him a nice 20 yard shot. The birds in mexico were also followed to the roost and we did the same thing the next morning. You never really know where they will fly down to but we got lucky and one by one they flew past us and grouped up. After a few minutes I started calling and a few hens came over to investigate. One walked about 10 feet from us then another one appeared and another. The the tom came but I could hear him drumming before he actually was visible. I was the caller and they walked past me and the landowner then dropped into the wash. Once they were out of site I gave them a little time as I was waiting for my friend to shoot, and waiting. Finally I started to call again hoping to keep them in the area then heard boom!. Seems he was directly across the wash from us and had to reposition as the birds were in between him and us. He hade made a great shout, maybe 12 yards on a nice fat bird about 10 minutes before the sun rose.

    It varies. A couple of years ago it was already open and a few years before that it was mid May.
  22. Moosejaw has them on sale too for some huge savings.

    Too early sounds like. I know that in the Deep South seasons have already opened.
