  1. War on US soil.....free for shooting!

     

    Ha. I like that and agree.

     

    I took my nephews gun from him (264 win mag) and all three lined up as I covered my nephews and my brothers exit. I think military because of the spacing when they walked. I was not going to go into to much background but here are a couple more details. There were two of the normal borders crossers/drug smugglers to the southeast of these guys that may have been the hunted. And it is possible it's smugglers because the guy in the vest has something under his arm. But it is also could be something else because we were to the south and east of them and they caught up to us eventough they were past us (happenstance or not). One more detail is we heard multiple gun fire about an hour earlier from this area. They guy in the vest is a badass.


  2. Hunting in 36b over the weekend my hunting crew got closer to these guys than my comfort level allowed. You be the Judge on what they are up to. They were 3/4 of mile past the border in some of the pictures and a Just on the other side in the others. Its an interesting but likely overly dramatic (on my part) story that I will tell over beer

  4. That's what we need is more Government regulation. You are proving that Americans can not show restraint and self control. We need more people like you in government to tell me and everybody else what to do. We need not to have the ability to discern right from wrong as long as you are around.You can do it for us. Thank you for your help. That being said, I think we should fine my father who shot the smallest deer ever over last weekend. He can not walk more than two hundred yards from back fusion surgery and radiation treatment for cancer. I will not shoot a small animal, by choice not by regulation. It really does not effect me if somebody shoots a small animal. The joy and smiles I have seen from small animal hunters is a hundred times greater than anything I have seen from a trophy hunter. Lets stop the joy of success and put your expectations on everybody else and lets start by fining my father for shooting a dink next to a road. Thank you for helping me see the light and realizing that more government regulation is the way go in all aspects of our lives.

  5. I got the bull on my avatar during last years late archery hunt. i hunted the entire season getting into range of three much larger bulls and seeing several others. I went several days without seeing an elk and several days of hard rutting activity. Just keep your goals realistic to the time spent scouting and you should do well.


  6. I am not voting because either way it has little effect on me. I do not like bait, so I do not do it, but I do not oppose anybody that does. In my opinion and my opinion only baiting is turning our sport into another sport. We call it fishing. This is a lot like the antler restriction rules that come up once in a while. People want to have antler restrictions rules in place. I do not shoot small animals and do not need regulations to tell me that. Once again I do not begrudge anybody that does that is their option and we do not need gov't to tell us which way is right or wrong if we have personal responsibility to do what we believe. Honestly, bowhunt forever, you may be the biggest Obama supporter ever, by comparing a referendum on baiting animals to the running of our country


  7. I hunted one buck in 36c for four years straight. The last time I saw him he walked through my rifle scope about 80 yards away with me squeezing the trigger and never finding any evidence of a hit. Some days you would wonder how can there be this many deer in the desert and then not see a deer for the next three days. The buck I hunted I had in range with a rifle or bow 5 times I believe seeing him maybe 8 or 9 times total. The "Flats" lends itself to my favorite style of hunting. Moving slow, getting close and seeing them before they see you. Here are a few pics, the first one is a pic of "Mondo's" shed. The next is a buck I shot in 2007. I will also post a pic of a buck my brother got in 2008 or so. The better pics died with my last computer Also a cell pic of a little buck that him and his friend walked within 10 yards of me. Good luck on your hunt.

  8. I tagged out in January also. like you I am also bouncing off the walls to go hunt. Luckily, I live an area with turkeys to give me something to look forward to (I have taken a bear and not alot of interest in getting another one) Also, I am three species away from my big ten with a bow (without dogs) two of the species I am waiting for a tag on, sheep and buffalo, and the third, mt lion, will be my focus this fall. Whether its the first day of January or the last day of December or a season in between, if I see a mature buck that takes my breath away I am shooting.


  9. Congrats a new opportunity will arise (after hunting season). I am going through the same thing with two exceptions 1st I do not have any tags and second my corporate guys are keeping it a "secret" and no one in my branch is suppose to know there master plan.


  10. I lent out my monster to my brother for his antelope hunt, so this August my goal is a science experiment to see if I am better hunter now or back in 1994. I found a 1993 high country bow that I am going to try to take a couple of otc animals with(tagged out on deer already). I want to see if my recent killing spree is because of technology or because I have become a better hunter. I just need to find aluminum arrows now and Fred Bear broadheads.
