This year was a year to remember. Its kind of a long story but I'll try to condense it up a little bit. I posted this on MM so some of you I'm sure have read it. In May I unexpectedly spent 10 days in the Neuro ICU in Mesa with bleeding on my brain. It came out of nowhere and thankfully stopped on its own. After a bunch of tests and some pretty significant pain and a terribly long recovery I'm doing great. No lingering pain or problems at all. I didn't think I was going to get to hunt at all, but thankfully I got out. Saw some pretty dang good bucks and happened to run into this buck. I made an absolute horrible shot (he either started to run or jumped the string or both right when I shot) Cousin took the live pictures.

I wouldn’t sell it! It’s a piece of you! Find another way. If you can’t, I’ll buy it and sell it back to you for cost. But even then I wouldn’t sell it! Also, no idea retail value? Personal value is priceless. Unless a business, no one really wants someone’s trophy, unless they’re doing a favor.

Wives found out how much they spent. 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Why is it guys made fun of me for buying a 7 mag reamer. Go figure. wish I could have one or two of all of them. what’s your current cartridge list? here’s mine 22lr 22 mag 5.7 9mm 40 380 38sp 357 10mm 30/30 45 colt 460 45/70 223/556 243 260 AI 308 30/06 300blk 50 cal muzzy 50 bmg 500 grain arrows May own a 6 creed soon May own a 224 Valkyrie soon hurts to see that all in one spot but love them all

The seven guys that backpack, shoot 5 lb rifles and don't reload are going to be super pumped about this. I predict this is obsolete in 2 years or less.

Not interested in buying it but do you have Any other pictures of it at different angles?

Well, I don’t need another 10mm, but I will take it. PM inbound. David

I don’t want people in California, Oregon, washing, the north east part of the country, to be able to Carry guns.

Been hitting the gym quite a bit but I am really committed to losing weight. Been hovering around 205-210 and want to be at 185. I'm 5'6" and 44 so I have a hard time keeping weight off. I certainly don't drop weight like I did in my 20's or early 30's. Food is both a blessing and a curse and need more discipline. Lifting 4x a week and trying to get that too at 4x. Got me a personal trainer who is hot and motivates me to stay on track!

Well, I decided to avoid the season opening crowd, and went out to 20c to my favorite spot today. Spent a couple hours glassing..nothing. Started getting windy so I headed down into a sheltered area where I have seen them crossing through in past hunts. Less than 10 minutes after setting up, I heard footsteps in the leaves-lots of cottonwoods around, and 5 came through. I took a shot at the last one at 20 yards and my hunt was over. Got to have an easy hunt once in awhile.

Only thing i can think the Nls are great glass but you're constantly focusing them from one range to another. In your field of view if you're looking at one hill and there is a taller hill behind in your field of view you have to re focus to see clearly were i dont remember doing that with the 15s or ELs. Hopefully that makes sense you would have to actually see for your self . I have hade others tell me the same as well

Ummmm, good for him 🤷‍♂️ I don’t think anyone in AZ should really give a crap what Jay Scott thinks anymore. He doesn’t even live here. He pretty much only hunts Mexico and private land in CO.

Is the scope first focal point?

Sorry to here about the medical problems, but happy for you on the recovery and the slammer buck. You've always been great to everyone on here. You deserve it. Prayers on a perfect recovery.

Dang glad you're okay...awesome recovery buck!

Fantastic buck and even better hearing of your miraculous healing. Congratulations!

Thanks everyone for the information and insight into the ever changing "Mortgage your House" optic's market. Sounds like it's nothing unusual. I was a bit concerned with the NL's due to the recent uptick in pre owned sales. For now I'm going to stick with my 12EL's at least until I can pull a tag that warrants not only new glass but a new truck and a faster horse.

I currently have 10x32 NLs, 12x 42 NLs and a BtX. The usability of the 10's in a chest harness has really surprised me

Which is great..... until ammo is... wait for it.... unavailable.

Good topic @Azoutdoors 👍 I've been considering 12x50 ELs and 12x42 NLs and the focus knob question does gives me pause so I need to get my hot little hands (like Dooneese 🤣 ) a pair of NLs to give the FK a try. My budget allows for either, but I'm also a value kinda guy so if I can get 95% of the NLs at 70% of the NL price, well, that is tempting so we'll see how it plays out. Eddie

I have gen. 2 and it’s been a great rifle for the money. Mine is the 300 blackout.

AJ wanted to walk up the hill through the thorns to go see his elk . enjoying the afternoon waiting for Chris and My dad to get back with the side by side so we could winch him down the hill AJ made it to his elk. A respectable 6x5

Love it when my cousins come out from jersey, they realized our hills are there mountains and the canyons scare the heck out of them. Then the altitude difference of 1 mile. Welcome I think this guy is real and not AI. Goodluck
