    Sword experts?

    Long story short. My wife worked at navajo county they sent her email about county surplus and seized auction. Browsing the only thing that was interesting was a couple of buckets of confiscated swords. I am now ready for zombies.

    In today's hunting world you have to put ballistic in front of silvertip to make it acceptable.

    So under you logic everyone that uses a lever action from 1880 to the 1980 has done it wrong. Sometimes you just run into a tough animal and this was the case. I think I hit him six times including the two ending shots. The first two would have definitely been fatal if I wanted to wait the traditional 30 minutes and start tracking. It was too hot to do that. Also under your logic I would be way out of bounds this archery season, I'm using a 45 lb 60 year old recurve simple because I want the challenge. If I were using my standard compound I would have filled my turkey tag this evening. But 23 yards was at the edge of my range with a recurve. I am also going to new mexico next month and using a 54 cal percussion muzzleloader with round balls. You really don't want to get measuring contest with me. I have tagged 29 big game animals with my bow, including three archery antelope. Maybe another 10 or 12 with rifle or muzzleloader. 9 of 10 of the big 10 (8 archery) all solo. Guess what with modern ammo my bison took 4 perfectly placed rounds. It's not the ammo as much as placement as sometimes you just run into a tough animal.

    You obviously haven't killed very many animals. The last two years I have been part of 10 successful elk hunts and everyone of them had varying degrees of desire to live. This one was very tough. . Do you really think for a second my intent wasn't to humanly dispatch the animal? That's why I was shooting. My first two shots would have been fatal but I wanted to humanly dispatch the animal. And while you irritated me enough to go on a rant. I don't think your form of hunting is ethical. Shooting an animal at a distance where he can't use is defenses is not hunting.

    Since I was going old school with the rifle, I went old school with ammo. 150 grain Winchester silver tips.

    Hatch Green Chili Source?? (EXTRA HOT / HOT)

    Yeah, all she was missing was the highway patrol hat and a stick whip and she could run an Alabama chain gang. I miss those tamales.

    Hatch Green Chili Source?? (EXTRA HOT / HOT)

    This takes me back to my childhood and my grandmother breaking any child labor law there ever was. We would grease each chili in crisco, roast them on a wood stove with mesquite in August in tucson. Then husk corn for what felt like days. Those were the easy parts and then grind corn by hand until me and my brothers had arms that look like something out of he-man. She would make 100 dozen tamales at a time.

    E-tag

    Speaking from experience, it still gives you the tag number. I imagine it's the same as losing your wallet or backpack with your tag

    Deer tags. (In mail?)

    Surprisingly, I got my tag the other day. I am signed for etags for close to a year now.

    Otc elk. My first rifle elk.

    I've done it the last three seasons. 1st season, I got a depredation tag, which I filled. Last year, I missed a bunch with my pistol, switched to my crossbow and found a bull that i really wanted but couldn't close the deal. This season I've helped four people fill their tags, including myself. It's a 3030.

    My dog is different. He could care less. I actually watched him sniff a cotton tails nose. His obsession with fighting rocks is real and this is the first time ever when we stopped and he wasn't growling at them.

    I saw something leave and this little guy come down from the tree he was maybe 3 foot uo in. He got tired and lied down 20 yards from me. I only stayed a few minutes maybe. I have already had dealings with a rabid bobcat. Don't want to do it again.
