Hmmmm, double hunt would be interesting. I will look into the area on the scouting trip next month. Thanks for the area advice.

The bino is a starter set for me as $$ is a stretch in this economy. I choose a great time to start my gathering of hunt equipment. I will look into the pan heads that have been suggested. I saw a pic of a setup that had a plastic base like the block, and binoculars were strapped to the block. The bushnell set I have does accept an adapter and I probably will go that route. I wanted to see what I could come up with from around the house, and not having my wife chew me out for spending alot of cash. Coach, I looked into the link you provided and saw the velcro set up I mentioned seeing before. Thank you for the link.

The plan is to strap the bino to the board with a velcro strap. oz31p, how did you go about a pan head for this tripod? The head on it is chintzy at best, but hopefuly will make the trip. Is it worth it to have a larger heavy duty tripod for the purpose of glassing?

We are planing a few scouting trips before the hunt. I want to see what we would be up against and to be ready for the big day.

Ernesto C, your right. Thanks for a warm welcome!

Drawn for the Oct 22nd hunt. Will be comming out of southeast valley, Coolidge. I am in decent shape as I can hike and such. The plan a cousin has is to drive around until he finds something. I do not think this is the way to go and don't mind doing some hiking. I have a Marlin xl7 30-.06 that I plan on using.

My name is James McCarthy and I work with the Gila River Indian Community as a Civil Engineering Technician. I have been in the engineering field for the last 10 years in land development as a civil designer. The housing market tanked and I found myself working with Gila River. I am new to the forum as well, and joined after reading the posts for the last frew months. Finaly was drawn for the fall hunt, and need some good info from great people who support this forum. If you need a hand while being stuck in the Coolidge area, look for the fat guy with the thirstbuster, that me.
