Looks like you are getting plenty of advice here. I won’t add a whole lot but emphasize the difference between leader and manager. A couple practical things. Your job is to A) Provide direction B ) Remove roadblocks. It doesn’t matter how technically sound your work is, now your job is to help people figure out how to be effective in their own way. So just telling people is not nearly as effective as helping people figure out how to figure things out their own way. If you need more reading material I would suggest The First 90 Days. Great book for new managers and leaders. I still reference it often.

So I think leftovers just are not a thing anymore.

If you’ve had 6 Kaibab tags and not tagged a deer I’d say your luck ran out long ago.

We won’t talk about how many points it took for my 11 yo to get the tag. Where was Duwane’s camp during the early hunt?

Cold weather makes the compass point north ... if you know what I mean.

Ok for real, enough with the panic buying already. I walked through sportsmen’s today while picking up winter clothes for our late Kaibab hunt. Of course, almost nothing on the shelves. I expected that. Then I thought to check my safe stock for the rest of hunting season. At the beginning of the season I always buy enough for that year’s hunts. With one hunt left in the season I was good. So I decided to check online for my usual rounds that I run in each rifle to assess the situation. Not good. There isn’t anything anywhere. If the entire world is sold out of .243 and 7mm-08, I am hesitant to even guess how long the shortages could last. Holy heck people, calm down. The system isn’t made to handle what we’ve put it through.

No kidding. This time I don’t think people went out and stocked up on what they use. I think they bought everything they could get their hands on in hopes of a payday after Biden takes office. Same stuff that happened with AR’s before Trump took office. Is it any easier to get reloading supplies right now?

Well if any of you “natural restockers” have surplus Federal Trophy Copper in .243 or Federal Accubond 180grn .300 Win Mag. I will be in the market soon.

FMJ no less. Didn’t last more than a couple hours

Probably see tons of green and yellow boxes posted up here for $5/rnd shortly

Remember that buddy in high school who started dating the “average” chick you never noticed until he started taking her out? This is like watching that.

Congrats on an awesome buck.

This happens in nearly every draw cycle. Usually its just shortly before the full results post. I can remember identifying which archery elk hunt I drew in 2017 from the permit number. Nothing new here.

Dammit I screwed up my Turkey app and applied for late hunts. Moron.

Good to know Rich thinks I am an attractive and chaste woman. BTW my Harris-Biden ballot comment was a joke. I voted last week.

I wrote-in Romney in 2016. But he’s proven to be anti-public lands so I’m off that train.

Dropped my Biden/Harris ballot in the mail this morning.

I saw one in AZ back in 2004 and one in ID in 2008.

I have an Election Day present arriving from Sportsman’s Guide today. I also saw that last night they had 9mm so next week I will have a little pick me up on the door step.

If tomorrow goes the way they are projecting you will be yearning for the days of .60/rd

Don’t hold it in. Hemorrhoids take longer to heal than quad strains.

Probably within a week or so.

So that’s where all those sheds came from...

Riiiigghhht. I just do cardio so I can eat M&M’s.

Finally back to running at close to full strength. 3.5 miles 30:39 today. I run Monday and Friday, do strength Tuesday and Thursday and hike Camelback on hump days. Camelback PR is 53:45 set last week.
