    Creed have you tried posting this on Archerytalk? Their forums are pretty lame but the classifieds are pretty good for bows and gear.

    It shouldn't need a new cam, probably just a module.

    Congrats to this 10 Year Old

    From the 2013 Elk Regs: A parent, grandparent or legal guardian holding a big game tag may allow the use of that tag by their minor child or minor grandchild pursuant to the following requirements: • The minor child is 10 to 17 years old on the date of transfer; • The minor child has a valid hunting or combination license on the date of transfer; • A minor child less than 14 years old has satisfactorily completed a Department-approved hunter education course by the beginning date of the hunt; • The grandparent, parent or the child’s guardian must accompany the child in the field, and must be within 50 yards of the child when the animal is taken. So if 95 yr old grandma passes the tag, 95 yr old grandma does the hiking. Getting kids into hunting is a good thing, sorry if it gets in the way of you and your coveted tag. Big picture, we need to recruit future generations. Kuddos to parents who are willing to apply for years just to pass the tag to their kid and then go bust their butts so their kid can have a good hunt. And my "not relevant" point about the kid drawing a tag is that without a lot of luck, or very selfless parents / grandparents a 10 year old today has no reasonable expectation of being able to draw the tag, ever. Their only hope is to be selected in the random pass of the draw. With odds less than 1% in 65 years of applying the kid really still only has less than a 65% chance of drawing the tag EVER. What's next people protesting Hunt of a Lifetime?

    Congrats to this 10 Year Old

    One thing to consider is that young people just now beginning to apply for sheep may not EVER draw the tag. The max point pool is so far ahead of a kid just now turning 10 that in order to catch it they are simply going to have to outlive everyone else. In order to start accumulating sheep points with the intent of reaching max points, and then donating the tag to the kid, the Mom would have had to start applying 10 years before he was even born. Another consideration is that if Mom donated the tag that means Mom had to go on the hunt. If she was willing to apply long enough to draw the tag, and then hike into sheep country with a 10 year old in tow, she has earned the right to let the kid take the ram, in my opinion.

    It could have been worse, he could have had a big sugary drink or got a note from the school telling his parents he was fat. cause you know its the school districts job to raise our kids, not educate them.

    draw results?

    You may see a pending charge a day or two before your card is actually debited, but other than that you don't see anything until they charge your card.

    Over Scoring

    Wouldn't it be tape shrinking? If the tape got bigger the score would actually be lower. I think this is what I have been doing on all my coues deer.

    Credit Card Hit!

    You're sick. That's like falsely telling a bunch of kids at fat camp that they are having chilli dogs for dinner. Its against the constitution.

    odd / cool lion skull

    It sure looks like it took a whack between the eyes to me. My taxidermist just sent me pics of my bears broken jaw that was discovered when he started taking the hide off the head.

    Who knows maybe we will run into each other sometime since it looks we are neighbors on the member map. If you draw that 22 Late tag let me know and maybe I can help you out, I have spent some time in that unit and would love to do it again.
