I love everything but the hat. Congratulations!

I would blame it on the wolves!

+1 Coach. Growing up I thought my dad loved hunting as much as I did. Turns out he just loved me.

Easy big fella, no need to jump to any conclusions. Check out this thread with recent posts and it will be clear why I asked you if it was yours: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/36516-hornady-superformance-powder-for-270-win/ You youngsters, always worried about someone challenging your honor or something.

I go back and forth. Usually I end up hiking more and sleeping less. Those long hikes in the dark really start to wear on your psyche after a while though. As a kid I remember road hunting a lot, what happened to those days?

So is scoutpylot your other profile?

Hmmm can anyone pick the engineer out of this group? Good info thanks for sharing.

Yeah what Coach said . . .

Awesome buck. Congrats.

Nice work Jim! That thing is incredible thanks for sharing with us weekend warriors.

One of my favorite ways to shoot quail as a kid was to sandblast them with a 9mm round in the gravel about a foot short of them. I have been trying to arrow one the last couple of years. Neither of those methods are effective on flying quail.

I attest ammo is clean and in factory sealed boxes. This is $2 cheaper than the Aguila FMJ inside Sportsmans (where we met), and $8 cheaper than I could find this stuff in stock anywhere in town. Thanks again BC, always love working with a fellow 9ers fan.

Awesome. That's 2 this week. Now I am not sure how someone loses a rifle but it sounds like cwt members specialize in finding them.

Amazing how small the AZ hunting world has gotten with this site. It has really made us a community. Nice job guys!

And when I say "easier" I mean about 5% until you hit the bonus pass.

Sorry guys I have been searching for my jump drive with all of my draw data tables on it and can't seem to find it. That would suck cause it's probably 40+ hrs of work to put together what I had. Anyway for archery 21 and the 13's are on the easier side. 3b is another option but has probably a little lower age class. The 19a hunts would be following in not too far behind.

Unfortunately AZ and CO are the states where two of the most well publicized mass shootings in recent years have taken place. Still gripes me some ccw holder didn't stop that punk Loughner right there on the spot. It would have changed the whole debate going forward that is for sure.

This made my wife super happy and was about the cheapest furniture I have ever bought. You are a classy dude.

How did I ever let someone convince me to do a Muley hunt this year. . .

Good luck! Hopefully you and your pops can make some good memories chasing those dopey eared carp deer. I have a Muley tag this year and it feels weird not to be headed out this weekend.

Not a lot of density but some good bucks. Probably not the first place I would look.

My wife has a cow tag for the non-peaks hunt this weekend. Has anybody been up there on any of the hunts that have wrapped up? The wife is 7 months pregnant with our first daughter, and we will have our 4 & 5 yr old sons in tow so we will have to get real lucky. But maybe, just maybe we can catch one standing by a road.

I am considering doing this to my factory BDL stock on my .300 win mag. is it worth the time and effort on a factory stock? I really don't want to shell out $300 on a B&C stock right now but I was thinking that bedding + free floating on this stock should help until I do. If I decide to do this on my own, how much grinding should I do? I have seen several videos and some guys just chisel a little around the recoil lug and some guys grind upwards of a 1/4" around the whole action and barrel taper. Also, how much tape should I use for the free float? Thanks for any tips guys, as you can tell I am a rookie at this stuff.
