    Tripod Head

    I also have the Outdoorsmans pistol grip and really like it , but I would highly recommend the panning attatchment. It is a really nice set up and I have never felt fatigued using it. I also bit the bullet and bought their tripod this year and absolutely love it, even for the price. Good luck Josh

    Last day buck

    That is a buck to be very proud of and a great standard to set for yourself. Congrats!
  13. I was fortunate enough to find this guy at sunrise on friday, and start my stalk. He was almost a mile away and by the time I got a better view of him he had worked his way down hill with the help of a doe which helped him get closer to me as I worked my way down my side of the canyon. When I was able to range him the first time he was 680 yards. I kept working closer as they were going down the canyon and closed the distance to 444 yards. This was the longest shot I had ever taken. It eneded up being a very long day and night. After packing him back to the quad and running out of water I started to get dehydrated. It had to have been close to 85 degrees. So by the time I got to my truck I found out I had lost my truck keys and did not have a spare set hidden on the truck. Boy I sure feel like an idiot for not having been better prepared, but I will learn form my mistakes. Luckily were I was huntin was about40 miles from home so I reloaded the polaris that is street legal and drove home I had to go right through the town of cave creek I got alot of stares and thumbs up as the deer's rack was sticking up from my pack. I finally got home at 9:30pm. It made for a hunt I will never forget. Any guesses on score would be appreciated. Josh

    Josh's Buck

    Hey guys thanks for all the feed back it is much appreciated. I rough scored him before I took him to the taxidermist and came up with 94 1/2 inches I am no expert on scoring and only know it is bigger than my last buck which is what I was looking for. On the way out that night on my quad I ran into a really nice guy who was hunting with his son and told them of a spot I had seen a couple of bucks while hunting and being that the son had never killed a white tail I thought I would let them know about . Well I also explained my situation with the keys to my truck and gave him my number just in case if on the road back to the spot he came across them. Well I recieved a call from him today saying the son shot a 3 point at the spot and on the way out on their quad he found my keys I was blown away. It really is amazing how things can work themselves out.Thanks again Josh
  15. Awesome video it's just what I needed . Thanks for posting it. Good luck Josh

    Jumping Jack Trailers

    Does it help to take air out of the tires when getting the Rhino in the toy hauler? Just curious because I was thinking of getting one and was concerned for this exact reason.

    First lope

    HeyRR the back legs were attached and cleaned up but the front leg bones were not around. I really couldnt find any evidence of what killed him even after a little CSI work. He was near a waterhole so maybe he was sick. I notice alot of cattle carcasses near waterholes and assume they go near water to die. The meat on the backbone had been eaten that night because it was still pink and the hide was totally gone except for the head
  19. Got this buck on saturday. It was my first time hunting antelope and I sure did like it I think I'm addicted. Also glassed up this dead buck when I was scouting.

    A good day

    Rugerman I am truely sorry for your loss, but it hits home with me as my grandpa passed away this last summer. It's funny though how all's he talked about was chasing antelope up in wyoming when he was younger, and this year right after he passed I was drawn for lopes for the first time. I am convinced he was with me out there scouting and hunting. I lost my dad at an early age and am always happy when I am up on some ridge by myself glassing and the only thing I hear is the soft wind blowing I can hear my dad talking to me up there. Your dad will alwys be with you. God bless you

    First lope

    Hey DUG I actually got a shot at about 60 yards after the best stalk I have ever made. He was with 6 does and fell with one shot. I saw seven bucks on friday and saturday. I shot this one at about 7:30 a.m. on sat. morning. The rain on friday afternoon and saturday was terrible it really made the lopes bed down and dissappear. How did you make out?

    first antelope!!!

    Great job to you both. That makes me so happy to see a kid and his dad doing something that they can do together the rest of their lives. Great buck!
  23. Hey if any of you guys are interested in seeing all of the neat creepy crawlies in person or want to bring your family to see them in person get in touch with the Phoenix Herpetelogical Society, for a donation they will let you tour their place in scottsdale. They are really good people doing a great job educating and rescuing all types of reptiles
