Awesome. Thanks! Looks like I'll be getting that loyalty point next year then.

Casey's hands down.

I've always wondered... Do you get the loyalty point on your 5th year application, or after your 5th year (basically it will be applied to the 6th year)?

Looks like an amazing spot! Good luck!

I'll take the long action green stock.

I had the first hunt down there last year. Be warned it can be VERY hot during that early hunt. Last year it was. I saw plenty of very nice bucks and I'm sure you'll be in for a good time. I'm hunting up north this year, otherwise I'd be right back in good 'ole 36B!

Exactly 1 month until I can terrorize the mule deer bucks in unit 7. Not like I'm counting or anything. Can't wait!

Lucky man! I'm dreaming of that hunt... One day.

Indeed. although it's now only 30 days away. ha. Now if only I could locate some decent bucks in that dang unit...

Very tough one. I would also stick to your guns with the grade thing. If he's really that excited, he'll get his butt into gear and get that school work together. At that age, there are very few things as important as getting good grades. Bad High School transcripts can limit what he can do in college, and in turn as a career. I know for engineering majors you can't have any high school math or science grades of worse than C.

Vortex sells a Uni-Dapter tripod adapter that is MUCH better than the standard vortex tripod adapter. It works great. The standard Vortex tripod adapter is impossible.

I've got a t3 lite stainless and LOVE IT!! Smoothest action and nice crisp adjustable trigger.

I also recommend looking at the diamondbacks. They were my first real binoculars over $100 and were great for the money.

So after about 4-5 years of hunting, I'm wanting to get into bow hunting. I've never shot a bow and have zero experience or knowledge of the subject. I'm curious what equipment I need to get started? I know a bow, but what accessories are needed as well? Any info would be awesome.

Awesome. Hopefully it keeps snowing up there, ALOT. I want those mulies to come down into winter range for the Nov. general hunt in 7!

Thanks for the help. When I get drawn I'll have to contact you for a call and some more pointers.

Thanks. That's pretty much what I'm looking for. I don't plan on hunting Gould's, I'm happy with Merriam's. I just have no experience with Turkey so thought I'd ask. Any difference between the earlier hunt and the week later hunt? I see the odds are tougher and success rates higher for the earlier hunts. Any reason for this, or just because it's before the other?

No sure if you've contacted Docter, but this may help. http://www.docter-germany.de/en/service.html

I use the Culmann Magnesit 519 and it does me pretty good. I have tried a couple others in the sub $150 range and keep coming back to this one.

I just bought this same scope and it's AWESOME!! Great deal.

I was thinking of this exact same thing yesterday when applying for Turkey and getting my Buffalo bonus point. I'm curious how that will work out.

Thanks for the pointers guys. I figure I can probably set it up and tune it myself once I get the one I want. I'm in this adventure alone, so we'll see how it goes.

I hate to break it to you, but these are selling new at Cameraland for $349.99

Wow. Great bucks. I think the most impressive part is that you got drawn twice in 3 years!!

Thanks guys! I'm excited to get them out in the field and put them to use.
