What kind of rings and location?

Right on man. Congratulations

Not the exact bullet but I shoot the 20 grn dogtown HP’s out of my M700 in front of H322. Very accurate and evaporate prarie dogs and rabbits. Killed a javelina with them as well. Haven’t chrono’d it

I’m not 100% but about 99.9% sure you cant get there with the recent snow

Yep, i heard about it in a meeting a couple months ago. SRP is raising the bartlett dam a lot and Horseshoe lake will basically be a sediment trap. They also plan on damming a another spot near the salt river lakes and basically creating a new lake somewhere above canyon/apache lake. Arizona is the last state to “sign on” to the Colorado River water “lease” so we will be the first state that gets kicked off when the flow gets to a certain low point. SRP is trying to come up with solutions to supply water to AZ independently. Apparently thr salt and Verde supply enough water, we just don’t have the ability to hold it so we just blow it through the dams and more or less waste it.

Is the draw complete? I applied with several other guys and none of us got any charges. I’ve heard of other people getting charges over the last several weeks

I’ve got some time off around christmas as well if another set of eyes is needed

Well done. I appreciate the write up. Congratulations sir.

Come on man!

I took a class put on by my work called "dirt medicine” about 8 months ago and it changed things for me. It was a no-frills, nitty-gritty, class on how to basically keep people alive taught by ex special forces and military medics. Since then, i put together my own IFAK and carry one in my vehicle and one in my pack. I don’t know how many times i’ve cut myself bad while dressing an animal and had to just tie some cloth around it or something. I got cut really deep by a havalon this year and had my kit. It was a huge relief to know that i had the supplies to treat it. Lots of gauze, tape, chest seals, tourniquet, scissors and super glue is what i pack around. You could honestly put together a couple good ones for about $50 total. This is the outfit that taught the class. I’d seriously recommend it. https://www.independencetraining.com/

I have not agreed with you on one thing ever but i’ve also never disagreed with you more. Medical and college should be free? Who’s paying for that? Learn a trade and get a f$ckin job. You sound like everyone else that 30% of my salary is going to. Having a family income of 150k is not hard for motivated people these days. People need to stop complaining and asking for handouts and get off their butt and make a change in their life. Time to change the record

Nice job man. Thanks for sharing a story

Right on! Recker/pecos. Send me a PM

You bet! If anyone else is in need, lemme know. It’s gonna go in the trash soon. Clean cape and it’s a big bodied 27 coues.

I have one off of probably a 3-year old buck from a couple weeks ago. If you want or need it, you can have it for free. I’d like to get it out of my freezer. He’s a little smaller than that buck antler wise but if you get a pinch, lemme know.

That looks like a huge ram. DEEEEP curl

I struggled. Not much deer movement at all, especially friday through sunday. Missed a big buck on monday, my buddy and i doubled up on a couple decent bucks this morning. All in all, it was a very tough year for me.

Where are you located? Got two coues capes today

300 wm is a do-all round. I’ve shot several coues with one and it wasn’t any worse than my .264wm that i always hunt with. Shot one with a .338 Lapua….only one. 10/10 Would not recommend.

Yes they are. Different brands/projectiles of the same weights will shoot differently. Even identical components of a different lot number can/will shoot differently.

Really brah? What a dipshit response. Most people that hunt can afford what they want. It’s an expensive hobby. The economy is tanking? Must be in the wrong industry

Aaaaaand he’s gone….congrats trphy, you remain undefeated

Sorry bud, you got scammed

My first deer hunt. My dad and grandpa found a herd of 3 bucks that was unbelievable for the unit/area. One was truly exceptional, pushing 200" typical. Opening morning came and we found them immediately and close. If I remember right we were only like 150 yards away. My older brother pulled up to shoot the big one but his rifle, a .264wm, was jammed. He grabbed my middle brother’s rifle (.270 m77) and it just clicked. He grabs my rifle next, which was a Remington mohawk .243 that had a sawed off stock and was really short. He shot the big buck and knocked him down. I was 2nd up and shot the next biggest buck in the neck and he was down. The great big buck was kinda flopping around and my middle brother was trying to line up on the smallest buck (still a great buck). He had trouble finding it in the scope. In the meantime my oldest brother told my dad he fixed the jam in his .264 and was going to shoot the giant again. I briefly remember my dad telling him to stop when all heck broke loose. He pulled the trigger and the rifle exploded, i remember the barrel wizzing by my head. When the dust settled, my oldest brother was bleeding from both ears and was extremely concussed and my dad was bleeding all over his face. Me and my middle brother were fine but confused. After an eternity everyone gathered their wits and walked down to the bucks. My deer was dead but the giant was nowhere to be found. There was a huge puddle of blood and a bunch of drag marks but we looked all day and never found him. My brother and dad spent the night in the hospital when we got back to town. They both had a bunch of metal removed from them. My dad had the shell extractor burried in his jaw muscle. Crazy, traumatic first deer hunt. Turns out, the weekend before the hunt my brother went out shooting with a buddy that somehow mixed a 7mm mag round in with his box of shells. The bullet traveled a few inches down the barrwl and absolutely exploded the whole rifle. Lucky nobody died but dang…..that was a giant buck that got away. We scoured the country for years and never found him.
