I was blessed with a smoke pole bull tag and now have a great excuse to buy a new muzzel loadeder. I have came across this one. It looks like it is built by CVA but it they have stainless steel barrels instead of nickle. Any one have any experence with them? Thanks

All in a time when deer were hard to come by. Nice shot! heck if the slacks, sweater, HAT, and tie will help.......................I will give them a try!

Speechless.................just speechless

Very good write up Ron!! Great pics too! Better luck next time althogh you had a good hunt anyway. I don't know how you did it to sit still for so long, I also have a hard time sitting still. Great job!

We went out on Sat but got a late start. We wanted to take along our younger cousin who kind of needs some.........direction in his young life. You all know how it is young, LOTS of time on his hands and........you know how the story goes. We ended up in 36C and turned in to a fun Dove shoot. We saw 4 snakes on the drive in! Seriously they should call that ranch the Snakes Anvil . The only bad part of the day was me and my alergies. Man it was beautiful and very green but it was hard to shoot at Doves between sneezes. The only deer we saw was a fawn that I nearly stepped on. It was near a water hole and I was already freaked out about snakes so I was looking were my feet were going and WOW a tiny, tiny fawn. I mean it was so small you could have covered it up with a 8.5X11 inch sheet of paper. I quickly looked around for mom with no luck. It even looked like a WT but it was hard to tell. We didn't want to even touch it or bother it any more so we let it be and backed out quietly. I really wanted a picture but I figured we had seen enough. Oh and my young cousin took his first game animal, a nice big Dove!!!! It was a great day!

# 3 is not enough poundage for my cousin. I will see if he can swing #1, Any one else want it.....go for it!

I am very interested in one of the youth bows, only problem is I don't know which one. I need one for my cousin. I will look into it and get back to you soon! Thanks!

Wow It would do me no good to come across anything like that when I go bowhunting.............................I would pee my pants...........seriously.

Boy you really reach out there don't you Scott!! Nice pics and you make it look so easy. Thanks!

Very nice set up.....no, no that is the best set up you can get!! I am also happy to see that you have your priorities in line, I wish I would have made the effort in my earlier days like you are now. You will enjoy them for all your years of hunting!

Great looking Loper! Looked like you had a fun in some beautiful contry!

Nice

Thanks guys, stuff I not even thought about. I knew this would be a good place to start!

I am blessed with a wife who loves to hunt just about as much as I do. Now we have a young daughter who is just like her mom and dad, she loves the outdors. Now it is time for a travel trailer. Tent camping is fun! I really like it but now mom wants a trailer. I only have experience with the Fleetwood brand but that was a few years ago. We are for something in the 24-26ft range and new. My wifes Armada is rated to 9100lbs but i would like to stay under 7500lbs. A slide would be nice,etc..... Thanks

I was there yesterday, Mon, and a young lady who seemed to be part of the "powers that be" made it clear that "all the archery stuff is 50% off and the rest of the store is 20% including optics and rifles"!! She was standing right in front of the optics counter at the time. The salesmen would quote "10-15% off and maybe more" I am sure you could get the 20% though. Some items were better deals yet. A BIG safe that had been priced a $ 1400 I heard quoted at $1000.

Yes that was us! We had planned on camping on 229 east of the the power lines but my wifes "city slicker" Armada doesn't do well in the mud so we ended up camping west of the power lines. I think you saw my uncle and aunt waiting for me and my family. The original plan was going to be my uncle and I only but at the last moment my aunt, my wife and 2 year old went along. We had a great time!!!! We ended up getting there at 5-5:30pm Friday. How was the rain? My uncle arrived earlier than us . He came up from Camp verde and turned north to Lake mary road from Clints well at 7:30am Friday and he said it started to rain for 5 hours strait! I sure was busy this weekend up there with the bow shoot and all. My uncle and I drew Bull muzzel loader tags for the Nov hunt. We will be(hopfully) camped on the 229 just as you come from Lake mary road and soon you start the first small down hill, we will be on your right about a hundred yards. I think you will know what I am talking about. We should be a big group, all the family members are planning on coming out to help as pack mules . Stop on by to say hi or if you need anything! I am getting long winded here but we are going to try and head up again around the 2 or 3rd week of Sept to go scouting again but with deer tag and bow in hand. Some time BEFORE the archery Elk starts. What did you draw??

Where are you located? Tucson, Phx area??

There is a whole lota a$$ in that pic!

Thank you Ernesto!! You just made my dad!

cool man.........

Very cool story Coose fan! What an experience!

Very cool pics Scotty! I bet it was even better in person. That round rock looks small in the first picture untill you sat in front of it. Great spot with a great view, it was popular now and WAAAYYYYY back then! You have got to take better care of your hands especially your trigger finger !

It looks like there will be more than a few CWT.com members in 6A this weekend!! I leave noon Friday !! We will be camped at the lake mary rd and 229 and we will be in my uncles 97 F150 ext-cab tan pick up. Any recommendations on the fishing in the area? Should I have bought the trout stamp? Honk if you see us!

I'll third that. Paying for a for a service and then feeling like they are doing me a favor............NO THANKS! A while back I took my baby, a Springfeild 1911, in for a beaver tail safty to be installed after a recommendation from a local gunshop. After finally getting some ones attetion, it took a whlie, I said what it was I wanted to be done. The guy behind the counter said that they didn't have any aftermaket beaver tails to sell me . I said that I had a Ed Brown BT safty that I wanted to them to install for me. I felt like I had to convice him to do the work. Granted they looked a bit busy so I gave them a few weeks. After three weeks with no word I called because I was getting ansy with out my carry gun and got the same sort of famous phone manners. Thru the complaining and "we are really busy" I heard him say it was done. I go to pick it up and when he hands me the gun I was shocked at how dirty it was so much so that I must have made a face but I did not say a word and he started to defend him self and getting all excited and raising his voice. I said "Hey hold up, I know I didn't ask the it to be cleaned but give me a brake" He went on and on I interupted him again and asked if it was done. He said yes and I walked out. At least they are busy enough that they don't need any of my business.

Good topic with and great info!!!!
