    Need opinions on a new sidearm

    Forget about the bears if its for az. Unless you plan on hunting around griz no need to worry about bears. Pepper spray is better for bears anyway. The likelihood of fending off a bear with anything less than say 44 mag is low odds given the lucky chance that one was to attack and you actually hit it when shooting. Go with whatever gun is most comfortable for you and what you shoot the best in a defense situation. I myself have a few I like but 40 sw is what I carry daily. I highly recemend a good 2 day concealed course with scenario live fire. Amazing how bad you shoot when rushed or when you are in even mocked real life situations. I can drill holes at 25 yards at the range but when tackled by a 200 lb male and forced to escape then asked to shoot the same in the next 3 seconds I missed 5 shots. Many many trained cops have fired 10 foot shots in real life and never hit the attacker. Practice training makes whatever one you choose the right choice.

    Archery Deer

    Started out gun ho on archery deer but we had some animal issues and decided to just put some miles on them and do some scouting. I did get to about 40 yards to of course yes a nice black bear. I let him out of sight for a few minutes to get a good draw position and when I peeked over the ledge he was behind he was gone, I was a in pretty open meadow and I have no idea how he snuck out of there. The bear and I were so quiet that 10 minutes later some does came in to water about 40 yards out but no bucks. Myself and Madx250 put in some serious miles on the mules and had a great week seeing more of the country we hunt than we ever have.

    One Month (updated with pics)

    I will say I was scared stiff about having a girl. I can't say why exactly but it was different than my son. In the end my daughter and I are connected. If there was any light missing in my life before her there was none when she came along. If ever a father had a maternal connection I for sure did. Congrats you will be a better man for sure.

    Bears with hounds

    Too cool. Dogs rock
  11. Just to clarify the post was stating to take care in the field to be good reps of the sport or lifestyle of hunting. If you don't want to create enemies or give anti hunting advocates ammunition for uneducated supporters to their cause then game should be handled descretly and persons involved in hunting should handle themselves professionally. How hard is it to put a tarp over the animal. Why someone would haul a whole deer is beyond me but if they must it should at least be covered up. Sorry the rediculous days of strapping the deer to the hood as a trophy are gone. I am no veteran but since I have bought at least one tag I unfortunately for some get an opinion. I learned from others. Books. Hunter ed. And good ole common sense. We have every right to do whatever we want in many ways but it doesn't mean we should. I for one have a vegan mother who prays for the animals I chase to get away and yet she still supports what I do because I keep the details she doesn't like out of sight. Ethics and common sense are sometimes in short supply.

    *Monster Goat in the Dirt* 2014 Antelope Hunt

    That's why I said All involved. I just don't go for the outfitted hunt deal and love to see a bunch of hard working guys get it done. I know the fact that all the help and company makes it even sweeter. This hunt will last a lifetime.

    Monday Check in

    I have been in the mountains for a week so can't remember how early week went so much. I ran on Mon and Tues wed morning packed up mules and hit the hill. Spent many hours on mules scouting and got in some hiking and one night time run with my pack and bow. I know I said no scales and I believe it can hinder progress on the lifestyle change aspect but I stepped on when I got home Sunday and I am down 9 lbs. Good job everyone

    Sighting

    Good deal we were coues scouting for the same hunt. Good luck. We may be in that area 1 or 2 days but we plan on being 7 miles south of there for most of the hunt. Only the one good buck on my can in there.

  20. If you have to ask a question like that please go take a hunter ed class asap and refrain from discussing hunting in public until you do take said class.

  24. I didn't think it ever happened anymore but my mom saw a deer on top of a jeep this season. please be a good steward and representative of our sport and help others to understand how important it is for the future of hunting and the outdoors. Be descrete and use some common sense.
