Cool deal! I love when the dear are all junk-ta-fided. If you had passed on him 4 times , I wonder what the other guy looked like?? Congrats

Jim Where in Mexico did you go??? Is there a nuclear waste dump site near buy?? Beauty of a buck!!

Hey Casey I would like to see that 'original' photos. I would like the broadhead performance. Maybe you could PM me. Thanks

I wanna see too!! I can not open the correl paint shop for some reason. Some one please post the pics???

That is a GREAT buck with a nice summer coat. I love how his face is dark and his body is light colored. You might think about donating you Dec tag to some of the oganizations around that help people with health problems..etc. It might be something to look into. Anyways CONGRATS!!!!!

Looks to me like there might be two different bucks. His sticker on the left side is forked and the shed looks like a point. I might be wrong but if I am not that means you have TWO different monsters to hunt.

Db!, You are going to let the ladies know the second reason why we spend so much on our binos.....................sssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

POST 'EM UP

Post the pics!!

The last one looks like a mulie and he has got something weird going on on his left side. Looks like you have a great reason to call in sick on the 24th. Good Luck!

My aunt wants to buy a Browning semi-automatic Short-trac in .243. We have looked here in Tucson with no luck, only 30-06 and .300 mags. Ordering does not seem like an option because the local dealers are quoting around 90 days to get one in. My uncle want to see about getting one here in town or at least in AZ before ordering online. Thanks a lot boys and girls.

Very Cool! Lots of new photos I had not seen.............I don't know how that happened because I am on here daily. Thanks!!!!

Quite an adventure, thanks for sharing! I too will be there some day. Thanks for the great stories along with some beautiful pics. You are a blessed man.

I TOO FEEL THE LOVE!!![

Sorry to hear about you camera.....THAT SUCKS!!! I am with KGaines on this one. I too would hate to lose a day or even part looking for some loser lowlife than for your deer. I say post the thieves pic so maybe we can help you identify him while the iron is still hot. That way you can go the WM this a pic in hand and some sort of ID on the loser that way he might be more active in trying to do something about catching him. I can imagine that WM's are quite busy on opening morning, lets try am give a hand! I do not own any trail cameras but I HATE hearing that they keep getting stolen especially from members of the great site. As a group we can be pro-active about this repeated problem find the culprits and spread the word among the lowlifes that if you steal a camera the you pic will be taken and you get busted.

I will add one more because I am so happy with it. It is a CVA Kodiac PRO branded as a Winchester Apex. I put See tru-mounts and a Bushnell 3200 3x9-40. Working up an accurate load did take quite a bit work but I think in the end it was worth it. I am shooting Barnes 300grn Expanders(I call it 'the copper trash can') atop of 120grns of loose 777. I am getting 3 inch groups at 200 yards. Three inches high @ 100 and 3 inches low @ 200 yards. Good luck and what ever you get make sure you put in plenty of range time before the hunt.

WOW!! That does look great. That third pic gives me the feelling like I have just been busted on a stalk. Great mount indeed!

Wow I drew nothing for the second time in 9 years. I suppose it is for the best.......

Thanks alot guys!!

The rifle: Ruger Mini-30, blued. The problem: Barrel is very dirty even after a 'regular' cleaning, it maybe pitted and/or badly rusted. Two months after it was loaned out it was taken out of the safe and checked. It was so dirty that the action was stuck in the closed postion. The reason: He let some 'family' member(NOT ME) borrow the rifle under two conditions. 1st Clean the rifle before returning it. 2nd DO NOT shoot Russian or Chinese ammo. They did neither. My uncle is complaining that accuracy has gone down the tubes. I did try and explain that the Mini-30 is not known for accuracy, but he says that you can't even hit the dirt now if you tried. He asked me to ask all of you experts if a re-barrel is feasible. I am guessing it will be very costly. Looks like maybe Ruger might be the only source for a barrel. Any one have any other sources? I plan on giving it a good cleaning with a stainless steel brush and a quality slovent before anything drastic is done.

Thanks a bunch guys!!

We will be heading up to 6A just off Lake Mary Rd this weekend and I don't know what the fire resrtictions are. I can guess that camp fires are not allowed, even if they were we probably would not out of fear of a fire. Are Coleman stoves ok? Small gas grills ect? For those who want to know I DID NOT draw a Elk nor did my wife. BUT out of the hunting party of 15 THEY drew 5 SMOKE POLE BULL tags (same hunt) and one COW SMOKE POLE TAG, all applied seperatly. Huge luck, just not ours.

I know exactly what you mean AZ Guide !!

That is a wonderful story! Thank You for sharing. Happy fathers day to all!

I got one. Maybe it is simple but................Why can't I use a regular plug in 110 alarmclock in my TT while dry camping. It will not work with out the generator running. Shouldn't the inverter/carger/converter thing convert the 12V from my battery's to 110 so I can use it.????
