I'll say it again. The 3 biggest lies in the outdoor world are the person rating on a tent, the velocity on a box of ammo, and the temp rating on a sleeping bag!

I am designing some custom spotter cases and am looking for some locals to get measurements for different models. I can get measurements in about 30-45 minutes. If you help me out I will make one for you no cost, your choice in colors I have. If you bring your tripod, I will make you a sleeve as well. This is the prototype for my Kowa 554. I am in Chandler/Gilbert area. PM your cell phone and what spotter/tripod you have. Thanks.

For sale is my Davis 14x16 wall tent. Bought new in 2014. Front and back door, window on each side. Internal frame. Wilderness wood stove with all fittings and pipe. Zippered bags for poles.

I just got back from a long weekend in Iowa seeing family that I haven't seen in a long time. Long story short, my aunt (dad's oldest of his two younger sisters) has cancer again after 22 years of remission and, because of the treatment level last time, can't have treatment this time. As she says "I'm ready to go be with Jesus and my Buddy.". Her husband, my Uncle Bud, passed away 10 years ago this October. She asked me to come back and see her down in Pleasantville before things get bad with the cancer. I stayed at my best friend's house with his family in West DesMoines the whole time. He and I have known each other since we were 2 years old. We started at the babysitter together (my great aunt/grandma's sister), wen to preschool, elementary, junior high, high school, and college together. All the perks of growing up in small town in Iowa. After visiting my aunt and a handful of other family members from my dad's side, Jeff and I took off to a local farm pond he has access to near Winterset. Of course, I had to take my fly rod back with me. We hit the pond Friday night and Saturday. I caught two bass Friday night on poppers. The first one was my favorite because it was a popper tied up by my son, Jacob. I ended up losing that in a tree (placed a new order with Jacob on the drive home), tied on a store-bought popper, and caught a second bass. Jeff didn't want to try the fly rod, so he was hitting his spin gear. He caught a nice black crappie and "future champion" bass on a weedless spoon/grubtail combo before I convinced him to switch to topwater action with a floating Rapala. Jeff: "topwater never works here!". Me: "Bass are bass, no matter the pond, and topwater always works in the evening. Trust me." He switched and landed a 4-lb beautiful largemouth. We went back Saturday for a couple of hours before dinner with his family and we each caught a "future champion" on topwater. He is now going to expand his topwater arsenal and we're working on our next adventure. I wish I knew why these pictures upload wonky/upside down/sideways, but at least his Friday night pond monster is normal. I'm also realizing I need to convince my wife to let me get a 7-wt fly rod/reel for bass. Fingers crossed on that one I'm hoping to not have to tell her my 8wt bonefish rod will work for bass so I can get the 7wt! First bass of the trip, on a popper tied by Jacob Jeff's first bass of the trip, on a weedless spoon/grubtail combo. Jeff's pond beast on topwater. She pulled off two tail dances before being landed. My last fish, on a topwater Rapala Saturday night.

I’ll play…… Email Friday, card deadline Monday or Tuesday is my guess. 0720 on the 18th

Sold

Great little trailer, would make a good trailer for a side by side or atv to get gear in and out of the backcountry! All lights work, registered with title, new tires plus spare

Yup, there’s Kaibab in one of the pics above.

Have you made a case for a pair of vortex kiababs 18x56s?

Confidently calling my shot. Wednesday 6/19 - cards start getting hit at 5:30pm

I mean… someone could buy the bike, buy the little trailer and connect it to the bike and buy the tent to stuff in the trailer and get yourself way into a nice remote hunting spot!!

I got a female from the litter last year and couldn't be happier. Great dog

I have a model 700 SPS stainless in 300 wsm for sale. I bought this rifle used a couple of years ago but I never did anything with it. Will include a set of a talley rings in 30mm medium height I believe. Located in Vail. $650.

If I remember what he said, a couple of guys were on one bank of a stream, saw some metal stuff on the other side and called it in as a possible drug lab. Authorities hiked in and found it to be the plane. I'll ask him at lunch how long ago it was. ----Says the recovery was a few years ago, maybe as old as 2020

I haven't tired it but I've heard the stem cell injections are the was to go especially if you are not doing surgery. Any one can weigh in here on that with experience or expertise on the PT field?

If you applied you have a chance. I drew a Rocky tag in 09 with 7 pts

PM me. That was the first thing I made, I couldn’t find anything out there I liked. It has a slot so that you can slip it on over an outdoorsman stud so you don’t have to breakdown the setup to relax for a while or to carry it 50 yards to glass again. Tested the prototypes for over a year now. It will fit any of the big 15 sized binos.

It used to, then they grew up and moved out!

Hoppes isn't much of a cleaning agent. It smells good more than anything. Step up your solution, for sure.

What’s this cleaning of guns thingy you speak of?

I got a hit!

ok so should I contact the tribe about permits to hike this area or? My hunting partner and I have planned a couple weekends out after the snow melt to where we could get up there and look but if we cant even search for it legally, It would kinda defeat the purpose.

It will be interesting to find out where it is.
