wal-mart vs local shops?

[wal-mart vs local shops?]

AZ4life I bet you would be a good story teller around a campfire I under stand what you are saying. a few years back I bought a bore sighter from wal mart the bore adaptors were supposed to be metal of some sort but since it was sold at walmart they were plastic. that was about the last time I bought supplies there.

thanks for the information

[wal-mart vs local shops?]

yesterday I bought a Leupold 3x9 40 scope at a local gun store here in tucson. paid about 300 bucks for it and dont think that is a bad price? saw the same scope at walmart for 200 bucks with the exception that the wal mart scope said "rifleman" on the end. Now I will support my local shops until the day I die and buy little from walmart if any. I am just wondering how they can take the same product and sell it for a hundred bucks cheaper. I know they buy in bulk but thats one heck of a price difference. just wondering what everyone else thought about that kind of stuff

[attempted poaching?]

I have a trail cam set up a few miles from there.(nothin but does) but that is a good little canyon where I saw you at. killed a nice coues out of there a few years back 3x3. but it is a busy area

thanks everyone for your help.

[attempted poaching?]

I was the dove hunter you talked to about it. I walked down a ways and saw that same deer. drove around a little but saw no one?

[taxidermy]

just wondering if any one know if it is possible to take a set of antlers (just anntlers and base) and turn it in to a full head mount. killed a nice 4x5 mulie last year but couldnt afford to get it mounted but can now. may be a dumb question but I have no idea about taxidermy work. by the way saw a bleeding spike running by me today up reddington he ran about a half mile until i lost sight of him and didnt see any other hunters in the area if anyone lost him I can tell you about where I saw him last or ride up and show you. if he aint found by now. and good dove season this year

[Hunting Regulations]

had a neighbor in Morenci who had a dozen or so racks hanging on the outside wall of his garage some were sheding that were found out and about and some were kills. we had a new game warden in the area and he cited him for every antler that was not tagged. saying that if he could not prove the kill it was considered poaching. dont know the exact rules but thats just an experience we had

[Crossbow controversy]

My father fell off a ladder a few years back and totally disabled his left shoulder (cant draw a bow). being an avid bow hunter he could no longer do what he loved. It took 5 doctor exams and a ton of paper work (after a year and a half of recovery) for game and fish to think about giving him permission to hunt with a cross bow. it took another 6 months before he was allowed. I dont think it is wrong to use a cross bow under cirsumstances like that. I am against people who are not truly disabled ( in arizona atleast) who are granted acess to use a cross bow. I think it should not take as long as it does to be allowed to use them if you are truly disabled. but thats just my opinion on the situation.

[AZ Hunt of a Lifetime]

I think that is a real good thing that they are doing. makes me think about giving up my tag but I think they would mail it back and say we dont want it LOL 33 muledeer tag. but anyway its a real good thing thanks for letting everyone know
