Nice buck. I like those racks with lots of character. Good Job!

Happy Birthday old man , hope your day is a great one!

Those pictures are worth a thousand words. Way to go on a couple nice bucks and a fun trip!

Usually its "go ask your mother"

Nice Buck! Was he missing his "huevos" to make him like that?

That Colorado high country qualifies as "extreme" so you certainly get my vote!

The following information is from the Arizona Game & Fish Departments Unit hunt information section. It is a great place to obtain information about specific unit information for various species and habitat. White-tailed Deer 34B Overview: The whitetail population in the unit is fair this year. Most of the bucks will be in the one to two year old age classes. The majority of the whitetail population is in the Whetstone Mountain range with dispersed groups in outlying areas. Area: One of the main problems hunters encounter in this hunt unit is access. The Cottonwood and Wakefield Canyon areas are locked off at this time. This means that the north side of the Whetstones does not have legal vehicular public access. Hunters need to plan their hunt accordingly and look at alternative areas. Access may be granted by contacting the local ranchers and obtaining permission. Be aware that you must abide by their rules while on their land so be respectful of their wishes. The area known as Ricketts Mine has also been locked off. This will prevent vehicular access to McGrew Springs, Middle Canyon, and Guindani Canyon. French Joe and Middle Canyon can both be accessed from F.S. road 369 at milepost 300 on Hwy. 90. For those hunters wanting a little more seclusion and fewer hunters I would suggest the west side of the Whetstones. You can access those areas either through the Las Cienegas National Consevation Arera off Hwy 83 or from F.S. road 779 off Hwy. 82 east of Sonoita. The area from Bear Springs north to Apache Canyon has some nice whitetail. Be prepared for some dense brushy areas in some spots and also some steep canyons. Hunters may also want to try the south end of the Whetstones in Mine and Dry canyons. To get to Mine Canyon take the Sand Ranch Road from Highway 82 and follow the road west to Forest Service property. The road turns north just east of the ranch and onto Forest Service property. Remember that any land not on forest is private in this area and obey all postings unless you obtain permission from the rancher. Approximately one (1) mile past the Forest boundary there is a primitive cut across road that will take you east around the base of the mountain over to Dry Canyon. Dry Canyon can also be accessed off of State Highway 90. Along the Cienega Creek can also be a good area for whitetail. In general the whitetail densities are low and the vegetation is thick, which makes it a challenging hunt. Archery hunters frequent this area in the winter. Summary: As you can see, if you are not familiar with unit 34B you need to obtain a Forest Service map to help you identify the roads and canyons. It is also a must for the serious whitetail hunter to have a pair of binoculars. They will help you find those hard-to-spot bucks. The first hunt will probably be pretty warm so plan to leave camp very early to catch the bucks before they bed down. Bedding will start soon after light if it is warm weather. The second hunt will be cooler but still plan on hitting it early. Those big bucks still bed early. The late hunt will have the highest hunt success because the bucks will be out starting to chase the does for the rut. The weather can be unpredictable at that time of the year so come prepared. Access is still a problem at the north end of the Whetstones so a pre-hunt scouting trip will help you find your way in.

Here are some pics I came across on one of my CD's. I took them about 6 years ago. They are the Bighorns that live around the mines up in Clifton/Morenci

Cedar (PJ) burl makes a nice piece if you strip the bark and give it a sand and finish.

Congratulations! Very nice buck.

Thats huge! Very nice buck!

Price reduced to $350.00

Hitachi 51F500 51" Big Screen T.V (Rear Projection) $350.00 Purchased new in 2005 - Is a best in class big screen with great picture and sound. Have never had a problem with it. I am going to be on the move soon and can not take it with me. It is currently in storage. If any of you Tucson area members are seriuosly interested, I will deliver to your house.

Price Reduced to a rock bottom price of $400.00 Lug pattern is - 4 lug x 156mm (6.14' across the lug center) My mistake on the original 6" You can check this chart to see if it fits yours Lug chart

I am not sure, but it is about 24" deep x 4.5' tall by almost 5' long. My storage is about 20 miles from here so I would have to stop by and measure for exact size.

Very nice indeed!

And here I thought Obama was supposed to be "the savior" of our great nation. I ain't punchin myself, cause I didn't vote for him

Yes. I have seen the same setup on Rangers. They are great for sand, rock and mud. They will claw through anything. But being 27" tall they will lower your top end speed a little. I just checked the bolt pattern and offset on the rims 4lug x 156mm pattern (6.14" Across the lug center 3" front backset 5 1/2 backset Approx.

You called that one pretty good. In past years the Vikings had a habit of choking in the big games, so I am always leary of the "trap games". I thought for sure Favre would have an off day, but he did very well.

O.K cheeseheads, here is your chance to get even with the Vikes. Favre-a-palooza part two on Sunday in Greenbay. What do you think the outcome will be, with Favre returning to his beloved Lambeau field? I am going to cut the Pack a favor and make an "extreme" prediction and give the Packers a win in this game. Packers -24 Vikings - 20 Did I just predict the Packers to win? I must be getting soft I think the hype of the game will get to Brett and he will not do so good, or maybe..................?

How much for it? Wish i had seen this post earlier, would have gotten the ramps. $120.00 The item is sold.

Ramps have been sold.

Sorry you didn't get to watch the game. As much hype as there was on this game, I am suprised it was not nationally televised, but broadcasting is usually set pretty tight before the season starts.

Well, I am glad the Vikings won, but I did not predict that game very well.I thought the possibility of bad weather would dampen the passing game. I also thought Green bay would be on fire from the get go, but the Vikes let them back in the game in the second half.

Are you sure it is not the "man, bear, pig" thing!
