More drama then a 8th grade girls locker room.

$$?

I wouldn't go all Freud trying figure him out. You're more likely to count the grains of sand on a beach opposed to blame it on him being a gender bender. It's not like a precursor to being a whack job.

Yup. Yotes don't care, the metro ones are a bit more wary. Don't psych yourself out. I park and usually walk 100 to 200 yards and call. For me it's all about shooting lanes and terrain that gives me the upper hand. Just when you think, ok I've got them figured out. Boom you get schooled which is why it each stand is a new hunt.

So, were his parents divorced and his mother raised him?

Live anchovy freeline accounted 80% of the fish.

Salmon yesterday, Halibut, Ling and Black Cod today and Albacore tomorrow.

We had to scratch and grind today for Albacore. Left at 3am and went 50 miles south. 10 people on the charter. We each ended up with 3. Some broken lines and a few pulls hooks. 14 hour day on the water.

2 were kings. That run is basically over.

Great Job.

I put a Rifle Basix in a Savage Axis. Not bad for a $100 trigger. Has a micro millimeter of creep. I have a Timney in my 700 that I like better. With trigger I would think you get what you pay for and can live with. Shooting from the bench is one thing. Hunting situations when you have seconds to get off a shot may dictate an entirely different situation. Either way nothing can beat more "trigger time".

Or put a rock or cow pie on it.

Was this sent in under Sigs voluntary upgrade program?

This is a 300 WSM. He thinks it might be a Featherweight.

I usually always stop and talk to other hunters to see where they are planning on heading out into so I can stay out of their way and also offer to let them know where I might be if they should need help in case of an emergency. You meet all kinds out there. Be respectful and safe.

Nice gesture Chris.

Links tot he pics don't load.

I love hearing stories like this from hunters helping other hunters to kids casually pulling off great shots.

Awesome looking buck.

How much will you be out?

The lightest I have used were Danner Pronghorns. They were broken in the first 100 yards. I did wear a pair of Under Armour boots that were canvass and a few inches above the ankle. Usually just wore them around camp and wore 8" leather boots when hunting. As fate would have it one morning I was hunting Javelina in 16A quite a few years ago and decided to be lazy and just wear the Under Armours. I left camp at sunrise and hiked into the Wilderness Area. About half a mile in I was walking on an old two track stopping every so often to glass. It was the HAM hunt and I had a 454 Super Redhawk (there are some big pigs in there LOL) in a chest holder, about 30 pounds in an Outdoorsmans frame pack and had 10X EL's mounted on a tripod over one shoulder. As I was walking downhill I stepped on a golf ball sized stone. Next thing I knew my right foot was sliding out away from me and down I went in a nano second. Looking around I looked at my foot and the sole of my boot was facing 90* to the right of my leg. Those Under Armour Boots had zero ankle support. Tossed them after that. I now have a plate and seven or so screws holding the one ankle bone together and a couple in the other one. I was 66 at the at the time and hunting solo. Fun stuff.

My son has a Tristar semi auto 12ga he bought probably five or more years ago and has never had any issues with it other than having to replace the o-ring which we got at Ace Hardware.

Great hunt. Lots of up's and down's for sure. What rifle combo was she using?

$7? That's rent on a Big Mac.

Welcome to QT. Just a part of life. I drive a diesel since 2000 and can count on one hand the amount of times it was a problem and still have all five fingers.
