Loaded or just projectiles?

Here I am 2 days before the election with a heavy heart wondering if this country will turn around and head in a direction that will make a future for my children to be proud of. I pray for a leader that will be lead by Gods word and lead us in a direction that will keep us safe, prosperous, and be a example our children will have to compare to a leader as I do this time to Ronald Reagan. True change to lead us down a path of reckoning and revival by example of a man changed by God. Amen Terry Conaway

No problems with buddy heaters but i would keep co2 sensors and propane sensors up to date they do expire.

I used cardboard around the bottom with a heater underneath on late elk hunts. I like the idea of using hot water on shower side to recirculate into the tank and keep from freezing. Keep the cold and wind out from under the trailer. I also use buddy heaters to keep me warm inside the trailer and turn the trailer heatr to the lowest setting. I tried to heat the trailer with the on board heater and used up two five gallon/30 pound tanks of propane in 1-1/2 days. It was -18 and blizzard conditions a couple of the mornings.

I had many family members in the different branches and none have seen combat on the front lines and made it home. Peace be with all the family's and men who struggle with problems related to PTSD it has affected many. Thanks to all the veterans.

I freeze 16 oz water bottles and take them in a yeti cooler frozen. Then remove frozen bottles and place one layer of frozen bottles on the bottom, then a game bag, lay the meat out and place another game bag on top, frozen bottles of water and game bag and lay more meat until all is in the cooler lasted for 8 days that way and the meat never got over 36 degrees. We were in a travel trailer and it enabled us to refreeze the bottles and add frozen bottles to the top of the cooler. We make sure and keep the cooler in the shade. Did it similar two years ago down south with another deer in another ice chest and it worked fantastic that time as well. We processed both these ourselves the weekend after we got home.

I second that motion!

my pack weighs around 32# add 13.5# after that for rifle.

that will be hard to top! congratulations

I bet he will look fine on the wall!

Elk is same only more

Did my own keep it cool and process when you get home. No doubt it is a lot of work but worth it.

Used Isnipe and it was good but required all the inputs to be accurate now I use a g7 range finder and it has been spot on every time out to 850 yards I have tested. It also accounts for angle,temp,Baro, altitude.

did this last year and had a good time hopefully will make it again this year

Bought a tikka and has been the easy set up, accurate rifle and more! Love it

read azgfd regulations and I believe a electronic rifle (tracking point) is excluded from fair chase by description. Meaning that you cannot use it.

It all depends on situation and ability. I have had hunters kill animals on our hunts at 60 yards and say thats not where i was aiming. Practice any distance or shots you may take, use the best equipment you can afford that has proven itself to you, and make sure you are comfortable with any shot you take.

Everyone is different in what their description of a quality animal. Azgfd has done a great job in my opinion of animal management to accommodate all hunters. If they impose a point minimum what impact would the numbers have on that unit? Total buck deer would rise and may use up all the resources and actually cause a decline of animals in that unit do to starvation, predation, and possibly other problems of health. We seem from my experience to have great opportunity to hunt in this state. It may take a few years or 20 to get a coveted tag but it seems to me that if you want to hunt every year you can take a lesser tag and have a opportunity.

I got a few boxes of precision hunter from hornady for 6.5 creedmoor and they measure .130 off the lands of my rifle and they shot 1/2 moa.

I had two successful shots this year 535 on a cow elk and 579 on a whitetail buck. Both one shot kills and double lung. I had perfect rests and great conditions(no wind). I closed up to distance on the deer from 793 to 579 and it was a cross canyon shot from prone position on my normal shooting bipod. the elk was from my backpack as a rest on a large rock for a stable platform. I practiced alot this year and learned if my rest is questionable dont take the shot. Am I good to a thousand NO.

I cut the breast off the bone and salt and pepper them, then soak them in lime juice, and tequila.

frost free or manual defrost? chest or upright? my grandfather stored alot of animals and said they keep longer in a manual defrost freezer. anyone have input on this
