    Fall colors in Greer?

    Too early. Usually first part of October.
  2. Hello. I've acquired an older Winchester 20 gauge from a non-hunting coworker. It was basically left in a corner of the garage for who knows how long. It needs some serious TLC. Had a heck of time just inserting the choke. The threads were a mess! Crud, gunk and rust! But I got it nice and clean and the choke screws in and out with little effort! Inside the barrel is good, with no pitting. Whew! After some proper cleaning, looks great inside. The outside needs some work. Other than rubbing it down with oil, is there anything that will stop the pitting action? Hate to see guns neglected like this. However, it's really turning out to be a nice gun! Thanks!

    My better half has her first hunt

    Let her hunt her way. A lot of times, guys make/force their wife or girlfriend to hunt like them. They quickly get burned out and mentally check out. Just be positive and let it flow naturally. Good luck and have fun!
  4. Yeah, I'm leaving it "as is". Just trying to stop the pitting from progressing further. Guess I'm good with the oil then. Thanks!
  5. Try getting your 20 yard dialed in. Until you figure out whats happening, it's fruitless to continue shooting 30,40,50 as the problem will be compounded the further out you shoot. Once you get that, then move on to longer distances. Although you said they tuned it, it wouldn't be a bad idea to verify starting with paper tuning. Good luck!

    E-Scouting

    I don't have a problem with it. I won't give exact coordinates, but I don't mind helping a guy/gal out by putting them in a general area to start. We're all busy, money is tight, work schedules, kids.......life sometimes takes over and it's hard to break away a couple times a month. And if that person never posts again, oh well. Never know when your time on earth is up. Your hunting spots won't do you any good in Heaven!

    Anybody start their hunting beard?

    My beard comes in with too much gray. Since my head hair is still mostly brown, the gray beard just doesn't look right, so I only sport the classic goatee. Weird how a persons facial hair can carry so much more gray compared to head hair. You'd think they'd change color the same time! Lol

    camera senerio what would you do

    Every year it seems to get worse. Won't be long before trail cams are banned from waterholes, tanks, seeps, springs...etc. Something to the effect of "no cameras within 1/4 mile from any water source". New laws go on the books every year and this wouldn't shock me!

  14. Where was the compassion and concern for Ron Goldman and Nicole Simpson when OJ Simpson was found not guilty? Oh that's right...it was a black man that nearly decapitated a white female and a white male, no big deal. The double standard is disgusting!

    Rye bikes

    If you've driven SR87 north, you've seen all the bikes at Rye. Well......they all burned up last night! http://www.paysonroundup.com/news/2013/jun/30/all-bikes-all-gone/
  16. Thanks to Obamacare. Get your wallets ready!!! "The average yearly cost for a new customer in the individual market grows from $1,896 to $3,708 -- a $1,812 cost increase," http://washingtonexaminer.com/insurers-predict-100-400-obamacare-rate-explosion/article/2529523

    New Jaguar Pics

    Just saw this story on azcentral. Is this the same jaguar you've capture on your trailcams? I've compared specific rosette markings on both, and it appears its the same jaguar. http://www.azfamily.com/home/Photos-show-male-jaguar-roams-in-Ariz-mountains-213423641.html

    5B VIDEO! BULL HUNT With TLO.

    Don't want to hijack this thread, but I had an awesome time. Chased a toad buck for 8 days, but never sealed the deal. In hindsight that was a mistake as I focused on that one buck. I lost sight of the calendar and passed on some good bucks. Before I knew it, the season was over. Still one of the best hunts I've had! Lance, thanks again for sharing this great hunt! I'm envious!

    5B VIDEO! BULL HUNT With TLO.

    Awesome video! You guys did a great job! This video brought back a lot of memories of my 5B antelope hunt last year. I recognized some familiar areas!

    Commission recommendations

    I've never applied in other states, so I did a quick google search on application fees for a couple western states. Some of those regs are confusing!! Anyways, just a quick look I found the following app fees: Wyoming: $5 res, $14 non-res Idaho: $6.25 res, $14.75 non-res Nevada: $10, $15 for elk. $3 predator management fee. $2 res online convenience fee, $3.50 non-res Utah: $10. $5 predator fee(not sure if that's applied to everyone) Colorado: $3 app fee. $10 habitat stamp.(required) Anyways....I may be incorrect in a few. Like I said, some of those regs are confusing! Not defending the app fee increase proposal, but just throwing out some comparisons from our neighbors.

    Channel 5 has their fires mixed up. Rock Creek is now 1500 acres.

    Can anyone confirm?

    I believe that's the Rock Creek fire east of Whiteriver. Last report was 1000+ acres and very active.
