I reached out to Jim and we came to an agreement about his need for some 25-20 Winchester Ammo... In a nutshell, Jim purchased a fine old rifle and found that the ammunition cost way more than an elderly retiree on a fixed income could afford to pay 😕... Rather than just selling it without even having had the pleasure of taking it out shooting Jim was hoping to find someone who could sell him enough cartridges to at least punch a few holes in a target 😀...So as I said earlier we came to an agreement and he'll be able to see if his rifle shoots as good as it looks... Don

Took 50 years to find one of these, probably never find another here in the desert. Tell me what it's called. Up for grabs is an imaginary chicken dinner.

Thank You Don! I still can't believe we have the "Wyoming connection". Talking to you was a real pleasure and brought back so many great memories in my life. Jim

Now that’s a fine example of one hunter supporting another. Much respect to you Drcarr.

Way to step up Don. That was a very nice thing to do.

Ah, the American dream. You are pissed because of someone elses success in life? You sound like a socialist. Last I checked this was a capitalism counrty. Anyone in this country has the same start in life and can make that life what they want. We all have choices to make and those choices have consequences and or rewards. Grow up, dont blame people who work their butts off to be successful for your families problems. Work harder, save money and make similar investments. I wish i had a few air bnbs to rent out. But i made other choices in life financially, worked my butt off to become debt free and can retire at 38 if I want. I have a high school diploma only, no college and no one helped me get to where im at. Stop crying, grow up and make better life choices. Also stop voting Democrat, you sound just like one.

I have to start off with a big thank you to zaccarp and qcchevy for sending me some locations and Little Creek Calls for getting my calls done very fast and actually bringing them to my house. Sunday i got off work and headed down to hunt some Goulds. Best i could do with short notice tag. Monday morning comes and first stop i get into a bird and he is coming right for me then gets to 100 yards and i watch him walk around me. Stop one is done. Try different location and i get hammered and watch a hen walk him right around me and i cant make it happen again. Now i am starting to question myself. I know i can hunt turkey but i must be making some mistakes or just not finding the right bird. Drive around and see some birds and get a few responses but thats it. Now i am worried. Everyone talks about it being an easy hunt and it was seeming to be the normal grind of turkey hunting going on for me. I wake up Tuesday and get into a bird again and work him for a bit and then coyotes start barking and howling and fired the bird up but also pushed him out as i hear him gobbling and going away. I decided to go try a different area and find nothing. Drive to a differnt location and throw out some calls and boom two birds hit me. Its on. I work them for an hour it seems and cant break one off the knob they are on and dont know why. Didnt seem like they had hens. Decide i am going to try and get closer and blow out two deer and the turkey shut up. I think its done and move out to try a different spot. Not and the next spot so i head back to wear i the birds were that i thought the deer spooked out to pick hp a nice pile of fire wood a saw and i hear them again. Decided to try and work around them and come from different side. I get to a spot i can actually glass back and see all the glass up two strutters and a bunch of hens. I work into them while my buddy took some good pics thru the glass. Got to within 63 yards of two toms. When i get there i didnt have to do anything. i ended being surrounded by hens and two other toms. The hens started walking towards me and i take a shot at one of the toms and miss and he flys up and over a tree and i was about to shoot again but the two other toms run right in front of me and i shoot and i drop one. I could hear my buddy and son Cheering for me as they watch the whole thing thru phone scope and binos. Was an awesome experience. Cant wait to do it again. Thank everyone again who helped out it was a great experience.

Found a matching set.

Thanks to all who replied to my ad. Jim

Oxen hoof shoe

It’s a shoe for an ox….

So, it'll be for sale after the ammo runs out? 🤣 I hope he reloads so he can keep shooting. I might have some components for him if he does.

See you there Bro!

I'm in.....

This tag takes 25 points to draw. anybody with less than15-20 points would be crazy to turn it in . Unless they are real young. I will Enjoy!

I would totally agree with this regarding antler growth. Every big bull I've found or had on camera is 95% done growing by the 4th of July.

Drought or no drought, never turn a tag back in. you may never get another one.

Hopefully I will be pulling on grouper and yellow tail this weekend!!!

Came home today after a long anticipated wait and found his place on an empty space of wall.

Thank you for starting this tread. As the wildlife manager/ Field Supervisor in Unit 3C for 26 yrs. I saw the end of the horse capturing that the Heber Ranger (Black Mesa) Dist was doing, and the results. It saddens, and angers me to see what these horses have done to the habitat in not only that unit, but also Unit 1. Specifically, the Kettel Holes area. that area has been decimated and all those meadows have been converted from grass land community to noxious weeds. Any business in the white mountains that supports the horses should defiantly be boycotted, especially by hunters, or anyone interested in sound forest management. There is no place on public land for even one feral horse. Besides the habitat issues, thats a lot of high-quality protein on the hoof, that could feed a lot of people!

Might as well use point guard 😜😜

Well I found their owner. It was a local. I did some door knocking and finally found someone that recognized the dogs. They were quite a few miles from home and on a grand adventure
