Happy Birthday Clay

Wow looks like some awesome bears in there! I love that first cinnamon, looks really big! I hope you get to put an arrow through one of those big boys. Thanks for sharing.

I just went over the past 12 years of hunting pix and came across these. There's a bunch more out there of my kids and family fishing trips, lots of turkey, javis, but these are the highlights of my hunting over the years: Just enjoying reminiscing the old hunting trips.

Secure the border with armed service men and women from National Guard to Spec Ops types. Cut funding immediately to Mexican companies that build US branded cars, impound all imports from the southern border. Make it known to Mexico that the few economic gains they currently enjoy will dry up in weeks if THEY don't clean up this mess. This problem originated in Mexico, they should clean it up. In reality, they never will, Illegals are sending millions of dollars into Mexico every day, and the Democrats love this because they are made up of old school dems who don't realize they are actually republicans, black voters who have forgotten that MLK Jr was Republican, Jews who vote democrat even though Dems throw them under the bus every day, Native Americans vote left every time, but it's the left that marginalized them, It's no surprise that the power tool on the left is all about importing tens of thousands of people who are dependent on 'the system'. Dependency is their goal, their crutch. The last thing they want is an independent, free thinking society of people who can call bullshit. Well, I don't mind speaking my mind and I'll call BULLSHIT. We should stand united with guns in hand and tell the feds, they are full of crap. We've had enough and we're ready to stand together, hand in hand, arms at the ready. This B.S. utopia dream they're trying to sell is shallow, pointless and leads our country nowhere.

Wow, you are lucky. One day I'd love to hunt those buffs. Best of luck, brother and tell us all about it!

Funny thing is, that second coues was the hardest I ever hunted, and he's the smallest buck I've taken. I camped in a tent in 24A in sub-zero temps and heavy snow for a week. Each day I would get up, make some hot tea, hike about 1.5 miles in my underwear in snow and 15-19 degree temps and glass all day. I had a dry bag up top with insulated coveralls, water and snack food. I had seen this buck from the first day to the last but I was sure a buck in his teens would show up. One day hiking out, my knee buckled in the snow. I thought my hunt was over. I went home, but as I paced back-and-fourth for days my wife said "just get back out there". I hiked back up to that peak with an inch of fresh snow, and he just showed up, making scrapes. All the nights in freezing temps, the hiking up practically naked in 14-19 temps, then bundling up and glassing all day. I was sure I would kill a 120 type buck, but no. I end up with a re-injured knee and a small buck, BUT, that hunt will live forever with me because of how hard it was, and how a "dink" buck can make it all worth it if you judge the hunt by the experience instead of inches.

Coooooze, it just has a nice ring to it. It implies more grace, more majesty. Cows sounds like, well, cows.

They'd cut his head off just as fast as the rest of us. Muslims, that is, not gay people just for clarity. Dustin, have you seen the recent ISIS propaganda videos lately where they drive several trucks full of guys to execution locations and shoot them all in the head, one-by-one. Or the ones where they march them to a river bank covered in blood and shoot them in the head, then kick their bodies into the river? What do you think of that brand of propaganda? Just some stuff made up by uneducated, fearful individuals?

Thanks guys, I appreciate your responses.

I'm helping my dad sell this, so I'll do my best to answer questions about while he is on vacation in Utah next week. This is a very well maintained vehicle, and if interested, feel free to make an offer - no trades please. I can show the vehicle in Lakeside. Upgraded 3.4 liter V-6 engine (47,000 miles), new paint, new headliner, running boards, air conditioner conversion to new refrigerant, new heat exchanger, good tires, 3 speed automatic with overdrive, 4-wheel drive with low and high ranges, transmission upgrade kit, CD player radio, clean, never wrecked, approx. 18-19 mpg, full-size spare, tow hitch, 4 pin trailer wiring.

It's the 3.4L, and typo in the title is S15

142 views, 0 replies. I guess it's a little over priced. This isn't a rebuilt engine, it's a brand new engine. Newly rebuilt tranny, super clean interior. By comparison, this is less than you'd pay for a mid-level used quad. Lowering the price to $2500 - firm.

Another classic.

Not a winery, but there is a pretty good brewery in Lakeside called the Pinetop Brewing Company that appears to have a pretty good selection of wines in addition to hand-crafted beers. It shares space with Stolen Recipe BBQ so it's a fun little place to get some good BBQ & beer/wine.

Thoughts and prayers sent!

I'd take the 190" muley over the 120" coues. JMO. But I've taken a lot more coues than I have muleys. As for table fare, the way I process meat, I don't find coues that much better than mule deer. I'd prefer a cow elk over both, but super lean, well cared for meat from any deer species is awesome. I just love those big wide muleys from a trophy aspect.

Nice group - I'm glad they took care of it and got that gun shooting the way it should.

Gotta laugh, we kill about 3 of these a week. I'm usually very compassionate about snakes but we've got a koi pond with some regular goldfish. We've lost some very nice fish to these idiot garter snakes who bite anything they can latch onto but can't swallow.

Godspeed, Brian.

Islam has become the epitome of radical religion gone nuts. These guys cut each other's heads off not because one is non-muslim, just not the right kind of muslim. And what do you think they have in store for Christians, Jews, Hindus and Buddhists? Or maybe you're agnostic or atheist, how do you think you'd be treated by the Muslim Brotherhood in exchange for your tolerance? Their stated goal is world domination - one god, allah, one power system, one government, one law - Sharia law. And they've already successfully taken over big parts of the United States, like Dearborn, MI. Europe is quickly allowing islam to infiltrate and subjugate local law - look at the Netherlands, look at Egypt. If it isn't crystal clear that there will be a time in our lives or our children's that Islam will kill or convert every non muslim person on the globe, you might not be paying close enough attention to the world around you. We've gotten fat, lazy, complacent and ignorant on the fruits of our grandparents, and it's gonna come back on us hard.

Black Mamba.

My biggest concern in this, is that after they spend all this money, they'll look for entrance fees. Just kind of goes with the territory I guess. Give them something they didn't want, then charge them for it. Bartlett, Roosevelt are good examples.

Wow - that's some great taxidermy work on a tremendous buck. Great job!

Probably a dumb question, but is there a way to find your old posts here?

My guess is, that's next. They have a whole different perspective than we do. They want to modernize, while we want to preserve. It's "progress" in action, and it's here to stay, unfortunately.
