As long as it is legal and I have a tag in my pocket I am going to take the first lion I see. I have had two opportunities in the past that did not work out. So as they say, third time's a charm. At least I hope so.

I figured that I would lose some life by stretching it. The brass can only be bought from Lazzeroni. It blows my mind that there would be a 2 year wait for brass. I don't know where they get it but that is crazy. Thanks for the comments.

I have a Lazzeroni Patriot which is a short mag .308. They also sell a Tomohawk that is a .284. The brass is identical except the bullet diameter. So I would need to stretch the opening to .308. The neck and everything else would stay the same.

I have a Zeiss 3X9 scope that I put on mine and really like it. Keep it at the lower range for a majority of the shots. But it gives you just a bit more range for the coyotes that hang up.

What a great hunt. Too bad Paige wasn't able to put one down.

That is awesome. Way to get it done.

Quite the hunt. Congrats on the bucks. I think that first shot would have been at the lion and then the buck.

I have the Alaskan Guide Creations that you are talking about and like it. It has a couple little pouches for putting stuff in. And my phone fits in the elastic pockets at the top. The only thing I would change is the way the top latches. It would be nice if it was elastic that stretched over a hook. It would be easier and quieter to open and close.

It would be the equivalent of buying a BMW or a Mercedes. Can't go wrong with either. Although I think you could get the Swarovski's for about $500 cheaper.

That is awesome. I can imagine that you will never forget that hunt. Those are the best ones after it is all over and you have recovered.

Awesome, now kill a bull to match.

I have the ear plugs with the cord that attaches them. And I run the cord through the back of my hat where you adjust the size so that I never lose them. I accidentally shot my 270wsm with a muzzle break once without hearing protection and it literally dazed me. I now know how a concussion grenade works. I sat there for a few seconds with a stupid look on my face wondering where I was and what I had just done.

Dang you are a dog killing machine. That is awesome.

That is awesome. Just about how I figured it would go. I don't think there is anything quite like the Kaibab on those late hunts. Now it is down to the rifle bull hunt and it will be the end of an incredible season. Congratulations to Taylor.

It is when you take pictured with your phone and some you take vertical and some landscape. For some reason they get posted on here in the landscape form even if they were taken the other way. Great pictures by the way. I never knew that they strutted like that in the fall.

You definitely have a skill. That was one of the better write ups I have ever read on here or any magazine. It isn't always about the hunt. Congrats on a nice buck too.

I think there is something missing. No picture.

That is awesome. Congrats to your son and you.

Great buck Christian. Congrats and it is good to see you on here.

It is interesting to look at a map of the west states and how they voted by county. California, Oregon and Washington are all mostly red except the big cities.

Tyler, it was nice meeting you. Good luck with your dads hunt this weekend.

I sent you a message.

I did my part. I was in line at 5:45 this morning and it only took 45 minutes.

Got a pending charge for turkey. Good deal.

I use the Shooter app. Has all the features I could possibly need (and then some) and with the correct data it is dead on. Plus I recently switched phones and was able to log in and pull all my data back onto my phone without having to re-enter everything.
