The ones that dont rattle are the scary ones. Years ago tromping around in high grass looking for signs of blood, I was tired and not paying attention almost stepped on him until last second he moved. Beutiful looking snake, I let him live, think it was a blacktail. Never rattled til I messed with him. Another time hiking Miller peak in the huachucas almost stepped on a baby. Now I find I wear shin high boots for hunting and just try to be aware. When hiking with wife or kids I make them stay behind on trail and I lead for this reason. They are nothing to be afraid, just something to be aware of. A little awareness goes a long way. For the record, I'm not opposed to you guys that kill them. For me personally I will kill depending on the situation and some will live. Mostly the decision is made by the likelyhood of kids or dogs being nearby.

Completly new experience for us, only ever done "party boat" type fishing until this trip. Lost a few good ones but landed enough to be dang happy. Me and the younger boy got sea sick but not too bad. I learned a valuble lesson about taking dramamine before you get to the boat! We had a blast though, Pickles catching the grouper was just icing on the cake

Weed wack to close to a patio door and you'll have a bunch for free!

Yes they are small for down there. The yellow bite is dropping off and he gave us the training reels since we were new to bait casters. We were only dropping straight down and ripping them up real fast. After I got comfortable casting out I did hook into a big one but unfortunately the handle broke on the reel right when the sea lion showed up. Still the funnest fishing ive ever done, im seriosly considering another quick trip down there for a second chance.

He wasn't too bad after puking, hes too competitive to not go!

Anyone know where these fall against the big names in terms of clarity and brightness? They are sending me a pair to replace my gold rings and I'm considering selling them to go higher end. Unless they are close to the meopta then I will probably keep them.

Definitely wouldn't think they would be a real comparison to the Swaros, really wondering where they fall next to the meopta though... or if they are closer to the kaibabs.

Whpsh!

Sea sickness sucks, and I'm a little pansie when I'm sick

Does anyone know if any of the Android apps have a point and go feature where you set the direction in and type in how many yards? I can do that on my GPS but not with onx. It's great for marking a location for a stalk or where an animal may have been when you shot to start finding the blood trail. This has been the only reason I still have my gps.

Ive never glassed up a bear in the huachucas, and had very few on camera back when I was running them. Never had any hit water consistantly except for one down in the lower areas. Of the ones that were fairly consistant they were sows with cubs. If you head down to scout at all I can point you in a few areas I think might be good.

Looks like Daisy is a little miracle. She talking a little which is great news! She knows her name and remembers her hamster! Please continue to keep her in prayer.

Didn't know anything was even wrong with your wife. I'm glad to see she is ok. Congrats on that bull and good luck on this years hunts! Where are you gonna go with all those heads? I hope you got vaulted ceilings!

Wow! Some amazing ideas here!

I demand smoother roads!

Hope everything is ok.

Down with technology! Burn it to the ground!

Is one outfitter having every deer in a unit catalogued by means of trail cameras having lackeys check cams every single night to try and narrow down a particular bucks pattern and direction a non existent problem? Then having guys block roads into an area with several guys on every ridge nearby based on trail camera info? Then several guys walk one guy in via radio to kill a big buck. Is that a non existent problem or do you consider this fair chase? Sure you can argue number 2 and 3 are separate, and you are right. But that's how it is done sometimes. I don't have a problem with cams, I just have a problem with things being abused.

No it's not Kuiu, but still dang good gear. Cold weather Ultra light bibs, jacket, beanie and gaitor can be had for $168 ($468 worth of gear) Today only with code BLATTACKMARCH

For you guys that missed out here is another good deal. They list these refurbs about once a year. When they are gone they are gone. And yes it is legit. http://aaoptics.com/Refurbished_c_114.html

Why's he look so disappointed?

Just because someone would like to dial back all the high tech just a bit doesn't mean they want to revert back to the stone ages. The tech is getting better and better, the gear and hunters are as well. In the end it means more animals killed or wounded. And possibly a reduction in tags and animal quality. In my opinion a line does need to be drawn somewhere, the problem of course is where do you draw that line. The other problem is how do you get us all to agree?
