Truth is, I don’t. He’s like watching golf. Seriously. I only watched that one with heffelfinger because he was advertising every one to hunt AZ.

that shot does not look lethal, imo. needed to be at least a foot back at that steep angle. but hey, you got him.

It’s a choice you make. I’ve drawn 4 of one of the worst bull tags in the state, in a row. Most people who draw it, say, “never again!” But at least I get to go. I’ve actually killled bulls a couple of times. I’ve resigned that I will probably never kill a 6x6 in my life. I’m ok with that.

Thirds on the 44...lol. I always miss the good stuff.

What pound range is that bow?

I got a tag, looks like.

I got an 8 plus laying around. Let me see what the wife wants to do with it.

My son shot an elk at 80 yards with an eldx out of a 6.5 creedmore, the elk dropped in 2 steps, the bullet held together, and broke the far shoulder. We’ve killed a few with hornady American whitetail in 150 grain. They all went no where and died. One elk the bullet blew up, it was about a 50 yard shot. The elk still died, on the spot. I would ignore randy selby and his hate for all things hornady. He’s just jealous. I don’t have tons of data to share, but this is what I have.

I didn’t know they made a 17 round mag for that. Or, maybe the hyphen is missing.

yep. just hoping it stays that way. A lot of states are changing. i'm not gonna pitch a fit either way.

yep. just hoping it stays that way. not gonna kill me if it doesn't, though.

Sorry to hear about that. Will keep her in my prayers. You can’t take that stuff too seriously.

i'd be for iron sights only. Hope it doesn't ruffle feathers. Or at least rules against smokeless powder. I think it's an insult to muzzle loading enthusiasts with some of these in lines, topped with a scope, that shoot smokeless. i'm also against crossbows in archery season. but, i'm not going to start a war over these things. sometimes it's just good to see people getting out there. muzzle loading is a fine and honorable tradition, which i pursue at from time to time. (and mostly fail, lol). i'd like to see it remain an honorable tradition, and not go the way of big ego's and big money.

well, what did you choose? i'm packing my muzzle loader tomorrow, but am taking a 10mm for back up, a xdm. I'm just using cheap mag tech ammo, because i don't think it really matters on small game. I have some nice stuff from ammo inc, it's kind of pricey, maybe i'll take that. Hopefully i can get it done with the muzzy.

I do. Seriously.

How about draw for out of state otc archery deer? I’m for that, but g&f will never do that.

Trade for ??? just don’t want to thread it away if someone can use it.

Got a big bag of mostly 30.06 brass, Remington and hornady. A few pieces of federal are unfired, and a box or two of .38 brass. trade for predator calls, hunting books, accessories, ammo, or something hunting related. in Payson. looking reality in the face, I’ll probably never reload.

Trade for predator calls, fishing gear, ammo, etc. never used, has surface rust from storage.

. I’d trade it for a few flies or lures, or what you got?

Welp, it happens. Don’t beat yourself up over it. It sounds like you did what you could.

Any news??

I’m pretty sure Matt McPherson owns mission as well.

I’ll bite, I bought my 12 year old the ruger American compact in 6.5cm. I can shoot it comfortably and so can he. 6.5 is a pretty solid round that penetrates deeply. Very little kick.

welp, maybe he took a crap, and then looked up and saw a camera. only one thing to do in that situation. lol.
