Big Browns

Well I finally bit the bullet and bought a pair of Swarovski's 15's today. WOW! They are awesome. I've been using the 10x42 EL's, and I love them. but now I get to see the world. I cant wait to go glassing this weekend. If you dont have a pair sell your wife, child, girlfriend or car and buy some. You wont regret it.

I purchased a Cuddeback at Cabela's today, that was a return item. I know it was risky, but I thougt " what could be wrong with a Cuddeback ", and it was only 150 bucks. Well it turns out that it takes great pictures, but it starts making a whiney noise after it takes a pic and when the unit is turned off. Has anyone delt with this type problem before? How much does Cuddeback usually charge for repair's. Thanks

Sounds like fun. We could have a catagory for people stealing camera's. If you catch one or get a pic of one, you win by default.

Good Job Napoleon!

Today marks the 6 day scouting for bear and not seeing any. I would love to get a Bear this year. Does anyone know of an outfitter that sells scouting packages for Bear in 22S? I spend alot of time Scouting, but it seems that finding Bear's is not my forte. Thanks for the Help. Adam 928-595-1554

Thanks Friend, I knew I was doing something wrong!

I keep hearing rumor about Swarovski comming out with EL 15's or a new 20 power bino. Can anyone confirm this rumor. I have the El 10's and I love them. I can only imagine how great EL 15's would be.

After sitting my stand for 3 days and over 43 hours my hunt is now over. I walked into my stand this morning to find that somone had followed me in the night before and stole my camera. I hadn't checked it since last week so I'm sure the big buck I've been watching is on the camer. &*%$. I hate people. The weird part is they stole the camera and one of the salt bricks. I have a sneeky suspicion it's anti hunters, because if it were a hunter why would you steel a half eaten salt block. Especially if you were going to hunt the area. Whoever it was I hate them and I hope they and there familly die a very horribel death. I feel like I have been violated. My self and another friend have put a year's work in this spot. Now it's all for not. I had a buck of a life time comming in on a regular basis, now someone stole the camera and him from me. This is the 3rd camera in less than 2 month's I've had stolen. Does anyone know how I can destroy the salt lick. If I'm not going to hunt it I dont want someone else hunting it either. I was told to poor bleach on it, but I'm affraid that would hurt the Deer. I thought about pooring human hair all over the area, but that's a short term solution. I want to ruin it forever. Anyone got any idea's? Thanks I wish all you guys with camera's out there all the best. I'm done with it. Adam P.S. Here's a final picture of the buck I was trying to get. If any of you guys happen to see this buk's picture please let me know. If someone else kills him it's probably the person who stole my camera

Thanks guys for the help in trying to get me monivated. I have decided to go out this weekend, but I'm not going back to my salt lick. I just dont have the heart to go back there. I really dont have much excitement to go hunting, but I'm hoping I will feel better once I get back in the woods. I wish all you guys a safe and fun holiday. Thanks again. Maybe the hunting Gods will bless me with a good Deer this weekend. Adam

I dont want to let them win and I dont want someone else to kill that awesome Buck, but I've now lost all interest in that spot and I will never go near it again. I dont trust the area or the people that are screwing around in the area. It's abvious that someone now know's about the spot and will probably continue to screw with me. I'm going in there very soon to destroy the lick. I hate giving up, but I so emotionaly destroyed about this that I just cant deal with trying to hunt the area.

Well I went to check my camera this morning and low and behold it was gone, AGAIN! This is the second camera I've had stolen in 1 month. To add insult to injury. The #$$ hole dumped a huge pile of corn and horse feed 5 feet from where my camera was. Who ever it is, He has balls. I'm planning on going back in there tommorow with as much dog crap and horse crap I can find and dump it all over the area. I cant believe someone would steel a camera and then plan on hunting that same area. What an $%% hole! P.S. The camera was a wildview 2. I used an ink marker to write my name and number all over it. So if any of you guys see this camera please take it down and let me know. The camera was off the Bear Flatt road by the river in 22. I've hunted this area before and never seen anyone in this paticular spot. I thought it was safe, but I was definatly wrong. Be carefull guys. Adam Young 928-595-1554

I used to have faith in man kind, but I'm begining to hate humans. The bad thing is I used to love talking to fellow hunters while out in the field, but now I hate talking to people, because one of them could be the hunter who is stealing camera's in the area. I'm really starting to hate people.

LOL. That would be great

I'm really sorry to hear about your recent loss. I really know how you feel. I think I'm going to start putting a gernade behind my camera. That way when the #@@ hole gets blown up I will then be able to hunt the bear that's eating the left overs. I wish there was some sort of tracking system we could put in the camera's. I would love to knock on the door with 30 of my friends and tell the @## hole to give me the camera back. What fun we would have:)

Thanks for the idea. I like the idea of ingraving the camera. I'm going to try that. I would love to paint it pink so it would be very identifiable, but it would also be very noticiable. Thanks and good luck with your camera's. Adam

I was unable to make it to the meeting today. Does anyone know what happend? I'm sure it was like all the others. They listen to us at the meeting and then they go ahead and make a stupid decison that makes no sence.

Mike I just tried to post the pic, but the site wont let me. What's your e-mail?

Mike the problem is I cant actually see the camera in the guys hands. If I could I would post the pics. I dont want to miss blame someone. The first camera was on MT Ord in between the two springs neer the first right turn and this one was in another area. I'm so tired of working everyday to make a living and to only have some jerk not only steel my camer, but take the fun away from this amazing sport.

Well I have a really nice Buck comming into my salt lick. So needless to say I will be spending every chance I get in the stand. My question is what do you guys feel is esential to have in the stand with you. I'm planning on taking several books, food, water, a small video game, scent spray, and I'm probably going to load some books on tape on an IPOD. What do you guys do about having to go to the bath room? I know it's not everyone's favorite subject, but it's very important. Thanks.

I was planning on just having one ear plug in my left ear that way I can still here, and I can still draw my bow back if need be.

Here's another view

Well I put a brand new Camera up last weekend. I went to check it today and It's gone. I'm pissed, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. I got a picturew of them. I had 2 camera's at the same spring to get photo's of different trails. I'm not going to post a pic of the person, but I will be there opening morning to settle the score. I know you guys want to see them, but I want to settle this personally. I cant believe a fellow hunter would steel another hunter's camera. What a $%&* Head.

Just wondering if any of you guys have seen any Antelope in 18b lately. I'm helping a friend in the area who has an archery tag. I've only been in the area one time and dont really know whare to look. If any of you could help point us in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Plus Larry is to LAZY to go scouting. LOL HA HA HA
