  1. .Is it just me or are these instant lion hunters getting more and more common. I mean a guy goes and spends $20,000 plus on a few dogs from a real lion hunter puts on a cowboy hat and some chaps and he is a dry ground lion guide. You talk about hours and hours of training being worth it when the hours and hours of training were done by the guy you bought your pack from. So yes im sure the hours and hours of training were worth it when you wrote him the check. I will say that those dogs probably taught you a little in the year or so you have been lion hunting. Im sure you will do fine as a guide just dont put up the picture of the 45 lb lion you let your hunter shoot. Im not trying to be a jerk but you remind me of another guy who was the same way and it just bugs me a little.

     

    I missed the post but tripped on huntem's lack of class. As Tyler has exemplified in the past, I am sure that what he shared with us was accurate, professional and overall good. Thanks Tyler.

     

    And huntem, if you have not figured it out yet, we do not care if you quit joining us during your times of bad attitude and crankiness.


  2. I think we all need to go back and read Adam's original post. Adam was not asking for opinions and condemnation about the distance he shoots. No, he was just like any of us that would be looking for a pick me up after not being able to find something that he just shot. He needed our support. He wasn't looking for a bunch of blow hard advice from you naysayers and know it alls. So, if you can go back, read his post and help, please help the man. If you cannot offer any help, please do not post here and save your hot air for some other site. If it was not for folks like bobbyo, coues 'n' sheep, azpackhorse and others, I would think this was some anti hunting site.

     

    Good luck to you Adam and let us know if you are able to find the deer.


  3. Adam,

     

    You have a great attitude and I wish you the best finding your buck. And I also admire your composure in not stooping to personal attacks as others have attacked you.

     

    Generally speaking, where were you hunting? I am in the field often and if possible, would like to give you a hand.


  4. Anyone looking for a DPMS AR, or spare 30 round magazines, I just stocked up in Flagstaff.

     

    DPMS AR15 = $899.00 + tax

    10 - 30 Round Magazines = $150.00 + tax

     

    Give Horizon a call (928) 556-9649

    You didn't see their price on uppers did you?

     

    No, but from what I saw, his prices were generally great. Best of luck to you.

     


  5. I support Obama, the last 8 years are one reason, the last 2 weeks are another reason, the next 10 years are the last one. Republican control of Congress over the last 20 years has helped to create the market situation we are in right now (see Phil Gramm/John McCain to know what I'm talking about), and no I don't think the current Democratic Congress is any step forward, rather I see it as a step back, they are pathetic.

     

    I believe that there needs to be a radical shift in this country's energy policies and economics. Instead of funding Saudi and Emirate princes' luxury jets, palaces, and toys (>$800 billion a year in oil export money), why don't we make some of our own energy -- and not the kind that gushes? The 'next wars' to be fought over oil are already being fought, why don't we remove ourselves from the equation?

     

    Are you afraid of Obama because he is black? democrat? liberal? change? Bob Herbert of the NY Times had an outstanding OP ed on September 9th about being a liberal... How many of you have ever benefited from civil rights? women's rights? social security or unemployment insurance? medicare or medicaid? Are any/all of these things fundamentally wrong?

     

    I'm not afraid of losing my gun rights or my hunting rights, there are too many democrats who back guns (and basically all republicans), and hunting is a STATE governed issue so it shouldn't matter that Palin hunts, what should matter is the difference of a heartbeat from being the most powerful person on the planet. Bush was a hometown people's-person who America felt they could connect to, look at how he did.

    Is socialism a radical enough change for you? Buckle up if Obama is elected.


  6. I would like to and call a badger in this coming weekend, but I have never seen one while I was out hunting. I have heard there is a good population west of Wickenburg but I haven't had the chance to get over there yet. I have read to look for large dirt mounds, but again I haven't seen anything like this before. Does anybody know any good areas to start checking? David

     

    I forgot. You should try Badger Springs off I-17.
