Uhhhmmmmmm..... because they're smart?! They saying on nbc that dow futures are down 600 points. God, I hope it drops some more, I cashed out most of my equities two months ago waiting for this. If it drops to 17500, I'm going in big.

I voted for mccain too. Hes a far better choice than kirkpatrick, no matter how bad he pissed me off. Trumps leads after the latest projections as of the last poll closings. Pray that his lead holds! Still a lot of states that are 'too close to call'.

Nice. Lets hope he annhilates her to the point that she goes home, chugs that expensive bottle of scotch she stole from the white house when she moved out and chases it with a .40 hollow point. A guys gotta have a dream....

Wow! A couple of monsters no doubt.

Im expecting his numbers to jump this afternoon when his supporters start getting off work and hitting the polls on their way home. Her supporters are free to vote at any point during the day. I'll be there about 4:15 or so.

Its amazing how much time ive spent thinking and worrying over this election. Ive been in the trump camp since day one. Theres been no other candidate in my lifetime that has even 1/10th the business and financial accomplishments, or that has created as many jobs. As a private sector entrepreneur he's created 10s of thousands, maybe even 100s of thousands of jobs around the world. Not just the u.s. but several other countries' economies have benefited from his work. Hes not a nice guy, but hes a great choice for this job. Regardless of who wins, obama is done. He has been the worst leader I've ever personally seen. Give thanks that his regime is over. Obama is a stubborn jackass that will stand against everyone based on his broken ideology. Hillary is corrupt and can easily be bought. She will be easier to keep in control than he was, should we be unfortunate enough for her to win.

Wow! Great buck. Congrats to her!

I noticed mine seemed to be getting heavier and heavier so I gave up the habit and switched to a cabelas fanny pack with the shoulder straps and lash points. Weighs less than 10#. If I cant fit it in the fannypack, I do without it. 10x binos ride around my neck if its open terrain, thick timber i just use my 7x rangefinder and leave the binos at home, and bow is in my hand.

Awesome buck! Congrats.

I dont think you even have to go to that extreme. Make it 600 yards across a canyon with rising thermals and drainages pointing in different directions causing the wind to swirl unpredictably and 90% of your keyboard commandos wouldnt get on the plate if you gave them 3 tries. I know I wouldnt.

Standing here today staring down the barrel of a 116% increase in obamacare health insurance premiums next year with reduce coverage and increased deductibles, the only hope for small businesses is an immediate reprieve of this horrible bill. This will not happen under a democrat. This plus the nasty increas in capital gains taxes over the last couple years, I just cant see how anyone can hope to makes it if things dont change drastically. Wife and I are looking into canada.

When I was up in Colorado last week I had a coyote dancing around chasing field mice at about 40 yards. I watched her and knew I wouldn't take a shot because it was too early in the evening and I didnt want to risk spooking an unseen elk. Later on dhe showed up again rigjt around dusk skirting the edge of the meadow right up towards me. This time I was going to hammer her. The minute I decided to take the shot my heart started pumping adrenaline and I couldnt calm myself down. Got the shakes so dang bad! I put the bow back on the hook and just watched her. She came right up to me about 8-10 feet, looked me right in the eyes and hauled butt outta there. Ive shot a couple p&y deer and never had anything set my nerves off like that. I couldn't have hit a broadside bus at 20yards in that moment. i dont know how you train for that.

What do you think about having a 3 point minimum for Mule Deer?

Being a state that only allows the harvest of antlered deer, there is definetely a much lower number of bucks than does. However, as flatlander pointed out, many hunters get hung up in 'the nursery' because thats where all the deer sign is. A lot of folks think theres no bucks because they didn't see them, but really theres plenty. They're just really goodal at being invisible. I cant tell you much about the rifle seasons, but I have no trouble at all finding bucks in the archery season. A few years ago I would have sworn there wasnt a single buck in my area, but really the problem was with my eyes looking in the wrong spots and not looking long enough in the right spots. -
^^^^this!^^^^ Dont see many like that. Great shooting and congrats!

Thanks for the bump. It is a very sweet shooter and I'm pretty impressed with it.

This is a 70#/27" bow that had the modules changed so that it is currently at 67#/29 in draw. I later swapped out the 85% modules for 75% let-off, as 85% are illegal in some states. I just bought it a couple months ago when my old bow busted a limb, it's probably only been shot 100 or so times. I'm very impressed with how smooth and quiet it is, but I've since got my old bow repaired and as much as I like the mathews... It's just not MY bow. And I already have an extra and don't need 3 bows. Anyhow, I've got $785 into it, looking to get $650 cash. I'll post up pictures when I get home tonight.

There was a great photo essay floating around the web a couple years ago where the guy followed/monitored a whitetail deer for its entire life from being a fawn until it died of old age. As I recall it was done on high fence private land, so the buck had ideal living conditions and no hunting pressure. It was amazing how that buck peaked out as a massive brute then once he started the slide his antlers just kept getting poorer & poorer. The author had every set of sheds from that buck to document the changes, not to mention a ton of pics. Its pretty interesting what those little guys can grow into given the chance. -
Avondale nearest cross streets are Avondale blvd and buckeye.
