That is clearly a two year old leucistic not a 3 year old "leuistic".

yes, i spent a lot of time sharpening them. the ones i used were the old "carbon steel" model. They were supposed to be sharper and easier to put an edge on. I do have a problem with spending that much on broadheads that you have to spend hours honing.

after some tuning you can get them to fly pretty good. they aren't a broadhead you can just spin on and shoot. It was hard to believe my eyes watching a bull with an arrow straight through the 12 ring lay in a meadow for almost two hours, then get up and jump a fence. his lungs had holes straight through them but nearly zero internal blood. his chest cavity filled up with air and the shot that finally put him down (spine) deflated him like a balloon. it was strange. he looked like a bloated bull that had been dead for a week.

I shot a bull with Montec broadheads and it went south in a hurry. Absolute pinwheel double lung complete pass through on the first shot. It was 3 hours, 3 more arrows and a mile later that i got him down. Penetration is not the problem, not cutting as they penetrate is. Slick tricks ever since then for me.

Just. Fyi .264 win mags are pushing the 156’s at 3100fps+.

I’m having the exact rifle built on a pre-64 action right now and it’s gonna cost a lot more than that! Great deal on an extremely under appreciated cartridge.

i've looked through doublers and they do suck. can't imagine how bad one on each eye would be.

If you want to work for it and not get roasted, drive to the unit, put some boots on and walk around. Lots of turkeys and lots of country in unit 1. South of highway 60, west of NM line, north of highway 180 and east of the rez border is a good place to start

That’s a pretty gun. If it had a maple stock, i’d buy it. Shouldn’t last long either way with that price

The new model EL range are $2900 new right now (even on Amazon) Different/newer model than the ones posted. Just FYI. Not one to crap on a classifieds post, just sayin....

Just talked to another very close friend this morning that has it. 32 and healthy. He said the first few days were kinda rough but nothing crazy. Lots of fatigue, coughing and short on breath. Said it's not much worse than the flu or a chest cold.

We had some disagreements over the years but that is just awful. God Speed Mike. Condolences to the family.

I don't know what to think of it anymore. i know a couple people that have had it. one was older (60's) and it didn't do much. the other was a friend that is is in his late 30's, strong and fit and it hit him pretty hard. I'm starting a job at a hospital in Yuma and met with their director last week and he said it is really bad in Yuma. hospitals are all full and a lot of people dying. Another friend is a nurse at St. Joe's and she said the hospital is full of covid patients and a lot of them are in really bad shape. I'm going to continue living my life but it seems worse than the flu. I'm no doctor but i don't think wearing a mask is going to help anything but if it does, it's nothing more than a small inconvenience. I'm as sick of this BS as anyone else. Been working from home since early March and it's really gettin old but I am happy i'm still employed, unlike a lot of people.

That is a good price. I think I paid around $80 for mine a couple years ago.

as far as stools go, the Walkstool is by far the best i've used. they are under 2lbs and hold a lot of weight. There are photos of the being used as jackstands under cars. They also collapse down so they fit in a pack really well. i'm 6'4" 230lbs and they feel like they could hold three of me.

If we get a good monsoon and it greens up, they’ll be back in it this year

I’m dumb and old? I’m 34 bruh. Most people are working a “job” when they’re 19, not a career. If my “Job” not “career” would not let me take time off, i’d find a new one.

It sounds harsh, but you’re 19 and most likely not in your career position. Quit your job and hunt both seasons. Find a new job when you’re done. I would if i was your age.

Well, just to add insult to injury for all of us losers.... Blake Owens drew as many tags as we did this year. 🤮

I’m going on a charter boat, all meals (mostly fresh caught seafood), lodging and fishing provided. Bought my plane ticket round trip to kodiak island for $540 about a month ago. If i shoot two or three deer and catch a bunch of halibut and have it all shipped home through a packer, tips , tags, licenses, a motel room the day before and the day after my hunt, all food, everything until i’m back home with my animals i’ll be in it for under 4K. Not much more than most DIY out of state hunts i’ve done.

Lol. I’ve never been but you guys would be shocked if you knew how affordable it is.

I might be down for that. Give me a ring when it gets closer! I’ve actually got some pretty good spots in 6A.

Thanks for the kind words. I’m goin to Kodiak for blacktail in November. Glad i had a plan B already.

There were 2 bull tags on Raymond Ranch this year...
