    We went out and checked the cameras this weekend. We had 263 pictures of game animals off of 2 cameras since mid June. I think I finally found a spot to put my treestand for the archery cow hunt. Both cameras took over 2000 pictures with all the wind, so the batteries went dead last week. Here are a few of the pics.

    Just wanted to let everyone know to be very careful of Bowhunters Superstore International. I placed an order with them last year and it took 3 weeks to get my stuff. This year I placed an order just because they were the only place I could find the broadheads I wanted. It only took a week to get my package, but it was just an empty box. It took 6 weeks of calling every day to get my stuff. The lady in the customer service dept would tell me my stuff was in the mail everytime I talked to her. She finally just stopped taking my calls all together. When I finally got through to the owner, he didn't even care. Never even apologized. I got my stuff, but will never order from them again.

    Thanks guys. Finding all the cheap parts was the hardest thing about it. I found some great deals, the upper I bought was all parts with no barrel. I had to put it together. Here is a link to where I got the upper. I had to call him to get a better deal on a parts kit upper, and shipping took 4wks. The lower took about 8wks to get, but it gave me time to build and machine the upper.

    This is the new calling rifle I put together over the last few months. Its not the R-15 that I wanted, but I saved a bundle by going this route. Most of the time I only call with a shotgun, but last year we had a few hang up out of shotty range, so I decided to put together a semi auto .223. All said and done it cost me $575.00 and it shoots pretty good.

    I noticed them last Saturday when I was down in Tucson. We stopped by and they let us in to look around even though they weren't open. Looks like its going to be a great shop. Lots of gear, good prices, and very friendly. I think he said they would be open late this week or early next week.

    Good work Brandon! Those must be some monster calf killin' foxes! :huh: :D A buddy and I made it out for one last day of calling on Friday. Called 6 fox and only killed 2. The fur was just about too far gone to make it worth it. We'll be back out there in October.

     

     

    I am probably done with Foxes and Bobcats, only another week left anyway. I will probably try to shoot a few more yotes off the ranch. I can't wait till October!

    I know a few ranchers close to the San Pedro that have problems with these pigs, one hunter shot a 350 pound pig off one of the ranches there last year!

     

     

    I am pretty sure the Javalina regs used to say you couldn't shoot them down by the San Pedro. I grew up in the area and only saw them a few times. Sure would like to find a few now.

    I was just about to hang it up for the summer, but I got a phone call Saturday morning. A local rancher is losing calves and asked me if I would come do some calling. We headed out Saturday afternoon for a few stands. The wind was pretty tough, but on the 7th stand we had this Grey come in at the 4min mark. I shot him at about 10yds with 2oz Copper plated BB's. Sorry about the pics! After 5 years of banging around my pack, my Sony camera finally died. On stand #9 we had 2 coyotes come in to dist. sounds. I got the female, but no luck on the 2nd dog. All in all not too bad. I guess I will try to rifle hunt these coyotes for the next few weeks and see if I can kill a few more. I am almost finished with my Ar-15 and can't wait to try it out.
