If we can just get a little to buy us some time until the real monsoon kicks in, that would be nice. Born and raised here, it's always been after the 4th of July before things really get cranking.

I have max points. Hopefully this year!

It is. Hurricane Bud will hopefully push some moisture our way!

That's disturbing. Yet those some people call hunters inhumane and barbaric. smh

So much truth to that. Drew my first tag in 2012 with 7 points. Got too picky and passed a few nice bucks. Came home empty handed. It might be another 15+ years before I get another chance. Regret alot of my decisions on that hunt. rifle hunt? i dont think theres anything wrong with trophy hunting with a trophy tag, id rather come home empty handed knowing i gave it everything than come home with something poverty. just me though. if it was archery you dun goofed. Rifle. Yeah, I gave it everything. I found one great buck and chased him around for most of the hunt, passing on some other good ones. Then he disappeared and my hunt ran out of days. 6 years later and it still stings. Oh well, I'm pushing 50, so I should have at least one more chance!

I don't think Secretariat's record at the Belmont will ever be broken.

Awesome! He led the whole race!!

The early monsoon sucks. That's when all the fires start with the dry lightning.

So if you were win, which spotting scope? I can't decide! lol

Mine is a dog too! My trailer with my Can Am Defender comes in at roughly 3000lbs. Whenever I hit that hill and going up Ox Bow, truck struggles. Of course, it's a 2004 with that lowly 4 speed tranny, but I thought it would handle that weight. Apparently not. I'm now in search of a new truck! Haha

How does someone pass the emissions test with that modification?

I saw a couple different brands on camofire yesterday. A couple of Leica's with significant savings. If you're not in a hurry, check out their website daily. They usually recycle the deals.

Damm it! Why did I open this thread! Haha There goes my lunch money for the week!

Guy must not have a rear view/side mirrors??? Wonder why nobody waved him down to indicate a problem, especially if fires were popping up all along the highway. I'm constantly looking in my mirrors making sure there are no problems back there. Crazy.

Will he be the next Kirt Darner? Wow!

Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice get your house raided by 22 agents and have 3 bucks taken from your house and a big 200 gross typical taken from the taxidermy Holy chit! Haha. Wow!

So I'm up in Michigan for my niece's HS graduation. I miss all the fun! ...... someone fill in the blanks.

Love my Smith and Wesson M&P Shield in 9mm. Very thin and light. Comfortable to carry all day.

Its all politics. Can't close the Rim lakes on the biggest camping weekend of the year. It was like that back in the 80's when I worked on the fire crew there, and it's the same dance today. My prediction: big fire breaks out on Saturday afternoon.

A couple new fires today. A precursor to next weekend. Hold on to your hats!

The Tinder fire started even though there were restrictions already in place. There was a fire just north of Woods Canyon lake this week. Not only did the people ignore the no campfire rule, this fire even started on a road already closed to access. So this dumbazz broke 2 restrictions just to have a campfire. People just don't give a crap! That's why there really isn't a choice but to shut it down.

I hope they close more than that. Otherwise the idiots will head west and burn down my favorite lake, Bear Canyon. I'm sure the FS is going back and forth on keeping the Rim lakes open, but they're playing with fire, no pun intended.

I live near where that bear was spotted. Happens every time it's this dry. They drop off Four Peaks in a desperate search for food and water. And I agree on the closure! Shut the whole thing down now!

I'm going in with 14, my luck you'll draw! Lol
