Flatlander

Yes and like big brown said- someone gets lucky He would know.

Man I can't quit coming back to this pick. Nice work in the man cave. I will be hanging this picture up and hoping to make mine look similar.

That's the opposite of a friend. Jon, whereabouts are you located? Any pics of the mount?

PM sent

That's a game changer. Congratulations and good luck. Those first few days with my little girl were some if the best if my life, even without sleep.

That's a lot of rifles. Almost a decades worth of the most popular rifle in America. That's gunna leave a mark.

Thanks!

Thanks to the guys who have sent PM's. With only 6 tags on this hunt I am sure I will be able to carve out some space to hunt. Anyone else have this tag this year?

I would avoid pine trees. That should be enough info to get you pointed in the right direction

I killed an elk on that hunt once. I mean, I was a dumb kid who didn't know how to do much other than walk and glass, but it worked out. It did require a scouting trip, where I never got out of the truck. And the hunt wasn't easy, I didn't kill until 9:00 AM. Admittedly, I got lucky, but there are elk there and I would rate it slightly ahead of the OTC hunts and on par with general hunts in most other states. Tough, but do-able.

Nice! I had no idea I was in a competition.

Reavis ranch trail in the superstitions

My bad. I must have got my stories from years past crossed up. I do know that someone on here has a group of guys that hunts this hunt regularly. Unfortunately for these guys it's not you.

TJHunt2 is his screen name in here

TJ is the man when it comes to this unit. There are some beasts in there.

Are these just bullets or are they factory loaded rounds?

Price???

Yeah now the 19,000 applicants for leftovers is going to balloon into 20,000. It's a long shot either way. I send in my app every year and have never been selected. Just get a returned envelope.

Happens every year. Someone makes an error, raises heck, finds out they actually did make a mistake. I've done it myself. Always make a copy. Good luck on the cow hunt and try to stay away from bridges and skyscrapers for a while.

Those limited opp leftovers go quick not a reliable backup plan

The reason I apply for muzzleloader hunts is to improve draw odds, not for an anachronistic experience. When I want a primitive weapon experience I bow hunt. In this case the experience I was seeking was the experience of wrapping my tag around a big black antelope cutter. I don't think anybody would hand you your head for anything you said, but some might suggest you start a new thread where you can setup your soap box instead of hijacking an existing one. To each his own, good luck and many props to you for doing it the hard way.

Pressure is off flatlander. We have a new person to kick in the nuts! Mob rule. Take him to the square! Hold on, I didn't start this thread or make any predictions. My jewels have taken enough abuse for a lifetime already today.

I call BS still showing bonus points for me.

Got the peas stuffed into a pair of compression shorts and the Vicodin is starting to take over now stand by for some posting under the influence . . .

Dude, it's not the size of the ship it's the motion in the ocean that counts. This ship won't be seeing open water for a while. Guess you could say it is dry slipped at the moment.
