You can also try Accuracy Speaks out at Usery Pass. They have done a couple muzzle breaks for me and have done great work.

I may have some elk left from a few years ago. I will be up in a couple weeks for the Jr turkey hunt. I will let you know for sure soon.

I know people first hand that put everyone in the family in for tags because there is no up front charge. Other than the piddly $13 fee. If grandma (who has never hunted in her life) draws a tag just sign it over the the grand kids. Now you charge the full fee up front it will slow down a bit. Maybe not a bunch for deer but when you start talking about elk and sheep that adds up. The way I look at it is if you don't have the money to pay up front you shouldn't be putting in at all.

I am going to say 122 even. Great buck!

Air Force is definitely the way to go. I am ex Air Force and loved it. It is amazing the careers that you can have because of serving your country. Congrats to your daughter.

If you were able to zoom in on my avatar you would see the follow up shot sticking out of the back of my bulls head. He was dead standing when I took the shot but he was still standing. Miss judged the distance a little and the arrow punched right through his skull. Definitely killed him though.

So I guess I need to start packing a hacksaw in my pack now. I think I will also keep bringing a back up rifle along.

I would be curious what access would be like. Several of the roads are closed for much of the winter due to the snow and the possibility of damage from driving on them. So there would be a bunch of archery hunters on top of each other in the areas that are accessible. Not that I would be against it.

bhuntin, if you decide to sell your Jim White head let me know. I would be interested in buying it.

If you ask my wife I am completely deaf. Of course when she is on the opposite side of the house trying to carry on a conversation what do you expect. But seriously if I am around restaurants or places with lots of back ground noise I do have a hard time hearing conversations. But get away from the noises and I can hear very well. I know there is a name for it but can't think of it right now. That is the other thing that goes. The memory.

I found someones food stash one time while hunting the Kaibab. It turned out to only be corn and about 900 years old. Pretty cool. Needless to say I did not eat it.

That is awesome. Them dogs are crazy.

Great topic. I have a lot of outdoor memories of my family but they are mostly horseback riding. I grew up in Idaho and we did a lot of mountain riding.

I would imagine it is a rattle snake. I have only seen two Gila Monsters in all the years I have been hiking around out there. Had a friend of mine years ago find one and had no idea what it was. He picked it up and brought it home. Thought it was the coolest thing until he showed us pictures and everyone freaked out. He took it back out and let it go. He just thought he found a really cool lizard. Somehow through all that he managed to not get himself bit.

Another one for Bilsteins. I just put them on my Silverado a few months ago and am very happy with them. I went with the leveling shocks so I leveled the front end at the same time.

That is a pretty well behaved dog right there. Pretty funny thread. I laughed at 2 responses.

Those are both awesome bucks and congrats.

There is some nice horn there.

Very nice. I will have to think about doing something like that if I ever decide to shoot one of them stinky things again.

Excellent blog. The best thing of all is that you know what you need to do and you are acting on it.

I think this has been brought up a week ago or so. Supposedly if I remember right it should automatically update with the new number at some point. Unless this is something different that is going on. I will find out tomorrow as I will be doing the same thing.

I am upgrading to the 1600 B rangefinder so I will not be needing this one any longer. Has worked well for me. I will take $250 for it.

Phil, I have been meaning to send you a text and congratulate you. Awesome job on sticking it out and getting it done. He will make a nice mount. Now to start getting ready for our Mexico hunt next year.

Like Kaffer said above the Promaster is a great tripod. Amanda sells it right here in the CWT store. Unfortunately you can't get the Jim White head any more so I can't help you much there.

Do you realize I hate you and have never met you. THAT voice just will not leave my head every time I read the title of your post. I hate that ladies voice in those commercials. Drives me nuts.
