    Rifle for 10 Year Old

    Depends on the size of your 10 year old. When my son was 10, he was very tall and long armed, he was already shooting my 7 mag with a break very well. Killed a deer and elk with it. When my daughter was 10, she is petite, so a youth 243 and youth 7mm-08 were perfect for her first pig and elk when she was 10.

    Camper trailer water lines freezing?

    On late bull and December hunts, we insulate any pipes under the trailer. If it will be teens or lower, we do a simple wind stop with a tarp around the bottom of the trailer where the pipes are and if it is really cold you can run the generator for awhile during the day and plug in Christmas lights under the trailer to slow thaw any slushy water lines.

    Where? When? WTF?

    If this is in 5a. The trees all go in different directions and track for a mile or two. Around 2011. Near happy jack. Dozens of healthy mature pondos snapped at about the 20' mark. Kinda crazy.

    An app for that?

    Offline topo maps Does not need service if you just look at (upload) the area you are headed to when you do have service. I use it in airplane mode all the time.

  14. Cyafoya... I was having an issue with my 300wsm brass chambering also. My brass was just a touch long, 2.095-2.100. I trimmed all my brass to 2.090 per the Lyman book, and it all chambers perfectly now.

    Tell me about Girl hunters

    My wife and daughter both hunt. Both of them started with a cow elk. My wife when we were 17 and my daughter when she was 11. We hunt a lot as a family or with other families. My wife has been on many hunts over the last 20 years as the only woman in camp. She has also packed out more elk meat than some grown men ever will!!! Oh ya, and both of them shoot better than me

    What was your most memorable Az Hunt

    Doubling up on coues bucks with my wife two different times was awesome! My kids elk, deer, turkey and pig hunts always come to mind. But this one helped shape my love for hunting 20 years ago. When I was 15, my dad and I drew late rifle bull tags. We hunted hard for a few days with no luck. It was day 5 and dad said we had one last morning because he could not afford anymore time off work. That morning we did not even see an elk, we were driving back to camp to pack up and leave. At 11am a spike ran across the two track road, Dad jumped out and dropped him! Then he heard me shoot, he said did you shoot at the spike also? I said no, I shot that one, he looked the other way and my big 5x5 had died right in the middle of the road! He looks at his spike and looked back at mine about 3 times and finally said "well son of a B****" in a good ole John Wayne twang! We hugged and laughed the rest of the day breaking down those bulls with frozen hands.

    Best way to meet hunting bros

    Youth hunt camps have great people and it is always awesome to see a kid kill their first big game. If you know the unit, guide/mentor a kid or just help glass and then pack out some elk meat. Heavy packs in elk country always makes for new friends and great memories!!
