Stan! Loved the recap of your travels! That fishing trip sure looks like a blast. The views must have been amazing. I love that sunset photo BTW. I'm happy to hear you are enjoying a little bit of the pleasures of life my friend.

Best of luck! Have a blast man.

Thanks again Kevin. Best of luck on your hunt.

That's awesome TJ and Peggy! Congrats on the new addition to your arsenal. Happy to hear you had a great experience as I thought you would. I too am happy to have Healy Arms as a sponsor of the site.

I'll take the freezer. Thanks.

Ha Ha! Happy Birthday my friend! Hope you enjoy your day!

Yup! I think so!

Regardless of score, I hope you tag a buck you are proud of. Don't get hung up on scores. The best part of hunting N if the ditch for me is the quantity of deer we see. With that many people in camp, if you all know what you're doing, can make something good happen in the length of time you have up there. A dusting of snow on the ground will make a huge impact on your hunt. That is why I always pray for snow. I'll have good friends up there again this year and I want them to do well also.

That looks like a fun trip. Great looking table fare!

Right on!

Thanks and Congratulations again on drawing your sheep tag!

Wow! That us an unreal amount of tags in your group! Make the best of it. Enjoy your hunt, and I hope you get some snow. The Kaibab is a special place. Monster bucks can be anywhere and everywhere. Go prepared. Regardless of the outcome, know that you have a tag that most of us wish we had this year.

Looks like a great time was had TJ. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Lexie is livin right.

I have heard bugles while up on the late hunts. Couple of guides in camp have had visuals of raghorn bulls in the thick stuff.

Congratulations on drawing your tag. I sure hope you tag a beauty. You definitely have the best help for that unit.

How did it come out? Was the meat tender? Flavorful? Dry? Fatty? I've grilled black bear backstrap before. Mine turned out okay. Not flavorful, but clean.

Congrats again Tom. Between Stan, Kendall, and others...you are set to have a great experience. Can't wait to see what you bring off of the mountain.

I just might have to take you up on the new box of brass. Cool. Just PM me when you are ready. *Also, I want to note, the once fired brass was shot through a Cooper action.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Nice rig. I have ten (10) boxes of once fired Nosler brass if you're interested. Properly head stamped as 280 ACK IMP. $10 per box of 20 pieces. Also have a brand new (still sealed) box of the same brass. (50 ct) $50 for the box.

That's the way it's done right there! LOVE these posts on the forum! Way to go Dad!

Those are some cute pups!

I just wanted to give a big THANK YOU to our forum member Christina aka Naturegirl. I have been busy the past several months with a complete home remodel. Looking through the "Family Strengths" post I found that she and her husband own and operate a floor finishing company. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/1797-family-strengths/page-17http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/1797-family-strengths/page-17 I was in need of a garage floor makeover so I gave Christina a call. My garage floor was uneven, had cracks, was discolored with stains, and basically brought the look of the home down. I wanted to do an epoxy floor finish and that's what they delivered. I can't thank Christina enough, very easy to work with and top notch service with a quality product. If anyone is looking to get this done, I recommend them and will use them again if I ever need this service in the future. I've been meaning to post earlier but needed to get my shelving up on the wall and off the flooring.

A good dog is a blessing in ones life. I know you and Peg gave her the best life she could have ever asked for. She knew that and she will forever be in your hearts. That's a nice marker you made TJ. She'll be happy to see you come dove season every year.

Have a great one man!
