I hate scorpions!!! I have 3 little kids and we live right next to the edge of the desert. My 13 year old nephew got stung last year and had a bad reaction. It affected his motor skills so bad that he couldn't walk or talk and was drooling all over himself. My wife would probably go nuts if she found a scorpion in the diaper bag or baby's room. It's good to know that you found them. Crazy stuff!! A neighbor got stung by a baby rattlesnake while taking out the trash about 6 weeks ago and ended up in intensive care. Not a big fan of the poisonous critters.

My gun groups Hornady the best. For deer I am shooting the 130 gr interbonds. Your best bet is to follow everyone's advice and shoot a bunch of the premium ammo and see what your gun groups the best.

I don't blame you Blake. One of the guys I work with has a TOAD on camera and some of his once thought of good friends have gone to the point of even trying to figure out when he's going and follow him. It's disgusting the lengths some guys will go to and the friendships they will ruin over a deer. I'm actually surprised I haven't seen a picture of it here with someone trying to claim they got it on "their" camera. I really hope he can arrow this deer because TOAD is a huge understatement.

Who drives the white Dakota with the CWT sticker at Intel??? I noticed your truck over in the Fab 32 parking lot this morning. Who do you work for??? I'm working in Fab 32 for Rosendin doing tool install.

There's not enough room in the cafeteria for the construction portion of the job site. A handful of people from the construction side used to go there regularly until "blue badges" complained that it was taking them too long to get their food. It's understandable though, we still have it better than 95% of job sites.

I'll have to keep an eye out for you Jerry. John and Beau, I am one of the lunch tent exiles so you are welcome to come slum it with me anytime, haha . I used to hit up the cafeteria but they shut us down on that a few weeks ago.

I work for a sub contractor (Rosendin Electric) normally Mon-Thu 6-4:30. I work mostly in the sub fab but occasionally have to venture into the fab. A lot of the Harder Mechanical guys that I work around are really into hunting.

Doug, I will call you Saturday 8/7. Thanks, Daryl

Doug, how likely do you think it is that you will have any of the 6.5-20x50 left this time next week????? Preferably target dot but I would be fine with v-plex. I would like to get one but should probably wait until this time next week. I realize it's hard to say for sure since hunting season is fast approaching.

Haha. Hilarious! Hilarious, sad and very true.

That is a beautiful mount. I would love to add a life size coati mount in my house someday. I know who I am going to call for the taxi work when I get one.

They say they'll be ready for the Ironman Triathlon in November. It seems like there will be a lot to do between now and then to have the lake ready. It would be a huge loss economically for the valley if Tempe doesn't pull it off.

Out of those 3 I would go with the Vortex. My reasoning would be the warranty and the higher magnification. All 3 are good scopes and I'm sure you'll be happy with whatever you end up with.

Too funny :lol: !!!

36c oct for my dad and I. 36c nov-dec for brother in law. 23 jr for my nephew. I'm most excited about the jr tag for my nephew. 2 of my brother in laws that have never hunted are also now interested in putting in for leftover tags. We've done some recruiting for G&F. Can't wait to get out. Good luck to everyone on their tags!!!!!

That really sucks that no one stopped to help you. We had a transmission go out on us right in the middle of the scenic drive between Sedona and Flagstaff on a windy road. All the Mercedes and Cadillacs honked, flipped us off and told us to "get out of the road" and finally a guy in a beat up old Jeep pulled us up to an opening and called a tow truck when he got to Flagstaff. This was back before anybody had cell phones. It's too bad most people will just drive on by. Hopefully the next trips will be a lot less stressful.

I'm envious!!!!! Great looking mounts and wall. I hope to have a wall like that someday. The different characteristics of each buck make it look even better.

Man!!!! If you can shoot a 26 1/2 pound arrow faster than 298 fps I wanna see it!!!! J/K.....I couldn't help myself

Yeah, talk about opening up a can of whoop a__!! That was just outright embarrassing.

Okay, so I know I am very much in the minority here but I will be watching the Argentina vs. Germany soccer game Saturday morning . I will be at my sister in laws house in Lakeside and don't really want to watch the game there. Does anybody know of any place in the Lakeside area that will be open early Saturday for the game???? Okay, now you can start laughing BTW, go Argentina!!!!!!

The game starts at 6:30 am so that's why I was asking. I don't think there are enough Argentina fans up here to merit any place opening up that early, I was just hoping I was wrong and that someone would know. USA is my team but I like Argentina too because I lived there for a few years and have many friends there. Needless to say I will be up bright and early ready to watch the "albiceleste" send Germany home

I'm as serious as can be Dennis!!! Maybe if the US was still in it and playing then there would be a place to watch it. Looks like I'm going to have to watch the game at my sister in laws house. Either way it will be nice to get out of the valley heat. I'm out of here in about a half hour.

What an arrogant SOB!!! I think his attitude is that of most politicians.....They know it all and "we the people" don't know anything. Sickening.

Great deer Adam!!! Getting it done with a bow is even better.

Bill, is there any chance any varmint hunts with Bruce Tucker made it into the book? Bruce and his family have lived across the street from my parents for about 15 years now. I will be ordering your book and look forward to reading it.
