    Question for the taxidermists

    I would make sure they know that they absolutely must be whiskey & beer proof! You are obviously going to be drunk while wearing those bad boys... If you find a maker we will need pics, lots of pics especially from the first night of break in.

    Tim McGraw Anti-Gunner!1....What a buzzzz kill!!

    No surprise on Tim & Faith but didn't know about his bag boys which is too bad since Currington has some good songs. They all want to be Hollywood not even Nashville which is sad.

    Introduce myself

    Welcome! You have some awesome trophies! Probably obvious from all the feedback but you will be at the north end. Check our Google Earth, the AZ G&F site, and you may be able to get in touch with someone from G&F that can give some help as well. They can surely let you know if there are any issues with access and fences which seem to more and more of an issue these days. Hope your dad shoots a good one!

    SHUTTING UP AN ANTI-HUNTING VEGETARIAN

    Awesome story! Vegetarians in general seem to enjoy living in a world of massive irony that is beyond my comprehension. At least the U.S. version that seems to look down on everyone else who is not willing to join their cult.

    H1000, Ramshot Magnum or xterminator???

    Bruno's usually has Ramshot give them a call.

    Wood Fired Pizza Oven

    Good video! I have been watching them on youtube as well. Is it easier now to get all the material locally? We are considering moving and if we do I want one of these instead of a grill, probably do both but I want an oven! For those of you that built your own what is a rough estimate on cost? I know size and any ornate decorations can really add up but just a basic design estimate.

    I hate Mosquitos

    Yep pretty bad this year, we got skeeters and those dang crane fly's everywhere. When we bowfish I use the thermacell units and they work very well. Going to have to try some peppermint oil.

    Hart Competition ! Rest w/Clamping Bag Top

    This is a steal for someone, there is usually a waiting list. I have one or I would buy this instantly, great rest. Good luck with sale!

    Used Bow Recommendations?

    I would start with reading up some of the reviews like this one: http://www.outdoorlife.com/blogs/hunting/2014/07/bow-test-2014-ol-ranks-and-reviews-10-new-compounds Obviously you are not going to buy one of these new but will get a general idea of what the top companies are pushing. If you go down a model or two you will still have most of the features. Mathews, PSE, and few of the others are probably going to cost a lot more but hold their value very well due to demand and reputation. Then start prowling on AT and looking for a good deal. Remember it is probably worth it to spend $100-$150 more on a full set up because sites, stabs, quiver, and a new string if needed are going to cost $300-$500 and the guy before you has most likely already tuned the bow (ask what arrows they were shooting) you may get lucky and shoot darts without much tinkering. Good deal here considering the upgraded string, rest, and stab would cost you ~$300 new. http://www.archerytalk.com/vb/showthread.php?t=2453179 This was just the first deal under $500 on AT that pops up, there should be a few dozen more you can look over.
  12. Ghillie suit! All that you named are good. Vias is better than Verde in my opinion but all the guys not located in the west kept asking for green in the Kuiu forums. It is really interesting since based on everything I have read ungulates are dichromatic and don't see green. There are a lot of articles on this and a very long discussion on the Kuiu forum. So all the pretty greens are mostly for us hunters, the dark & light contrast to break up the pattern seems to be the most important aspect.

    Used Bow Recommendations?

    This! Make sure you know your draw length and go steal one off of AT. Take it down to a good shop and have them help you set it up it will be money well spent.

    Toyota Tundra Owners..... Yea or nay

    I have a Sequoia and it is a typical Toyota meaning quality is boring it is built so well. Pretty much zero problems, it is a beast of a vehicle and still tows very well. The old nav system and all the goofy safety features that are way overboard on the infotainment system are the only downsides but the updates over the last couple of years are supposed to make it much better. I know they greatly improved the Lexus systems in the last 3 years which are similar. All that being said I must be the only one intrigued by the new Fords which went on a 700lb diet and the guys I know that have them absolutely love the ecoboost engines. Still seems wierd to not have a V8 but the only people I hear bashing the changes are the ones that don't own them. I am waiting for the new Raptor at this point. I was planning to buy a Tundra but I have to agree with those that pointed out that the newest body style moved Toyota from best to worst for styling in my opinion.

    Official did NOT get drawn thread

    Nothing for me, nothing for the kids, nothing for the wife! looks like lots of fishing and bow fishing...
  16. I hear a lot of mixed reviews on Bergers. I have not had a lot of issues but I shoot the ABLR now mostly. Still trying the Bergers in 6.5 and will use them in 300 RUM. I have talked to a few guides that said basically what you described 50/50 sometimes dead as a doornail and others walking off and not stopping. I really think with that bullet design it has a lot to do with hitting bone or heavy muscle or passing through. If the energy is all dumped in the animal they are awesome.

    Bipod Help

    Good info! I have two buddies that use a similar bipod. I have a pan attachment as a backup, may see if we can put it to use.

    lake pleasant 2015

    Good update! Heading out tomorrow. A few weeks ago we got blown off the lake in the evening after only catching 1 good large mouth in the afternoon. No bow fishing that night and the lake was very full. The wind is always a concern in Spring and can make fishing a nightmare. Hope we can find the stripers or white bass.

    Apache Lake

    Well done! Great pics, I caught a giant carp on the smallest crappie jig I had last time I was at Apache last spring. Same deal as you described 2 hours of catching fish like crazy and then a 203 hour lull. Nver did find the smallies, good job!

    Bipod Help

    I like that! Post some build instructions if you have time. I could see adding this to a Stoney point bipod as well.

    8Lb jug of H1000 for sale

    Get on the list at Bruno's up in N Phx. Or you could try Ramshot Magnum! I am a die hard H1000 user, even over Retumbo because it is so dang stable. Ramshot is the real deal very close to the same loads and maybe even more stable. It is also ball powder so measuring is extremely accurate. Bruno's had Magnum on the shelf last time I was there but only a few large jugs.

    In Search of a Camo ASU Hat

    You can wear a hat from the largest university in the United States or the largest University in Northern Mexico... your choice! Bear Down The act of a big, hairy man, mounting his "Cub". After some drinks and loosening up, Gary was ready to bear down on Scott. Urban dictionary... just saying... Internet don't lie!

    Rosevelt lake reports.

    You will find them just stay at it. The crankbaits are a good way to cover a lot of area. I caught more fish on the small cranks, crappie style. We failed to catch a thing on dropshot or Texas lizards. I am beginning to think dropshot is not my gig since I have failed to slay them like other claim to on drop shot robos. Texas rigged lizard is my go to when things are slow but didn't pay off when we were there last month.
