But if you say, 4 guys put in together with only 1 bonus point they are still more likely to draw a tag than someone putting in by themselves that has 2 points. If any one of the 4 guys draw a tag then they all do. It seems that their odds would be double that of the guy putting in by himself. At least that is how I see it.

I have two daughters. One went through a few cars and the other was pretty good. Just took mirrors off and little dings. Good luck with your search.

I know it is a long shot but do you still have the R19? I will take it if so.

I have the same tent and love it. If you happen to sell the vestibule separate let me know. I would be interested.

That is sweet! Congrats to them all. What a blast.

Congrats to everyone. Sounds like a great time for everyone except Cody getting COVID.

Congrats on the double. Great picture.

How do they come up with a 1000 year service life? It reminds me of Rob on Ridiculousness pulling numbers out of his butt. My last Slik tripod was fine and had nothing wrong with it but I got bored with it so I switched to a Promaster. A little more money and much better tripod. Not way more money and a little better.

Did he draw a tag? They went to a draw system and just had a friend send me a screen shot of the transaction for 2024. So unless he drew a tag he will have to wait until the following year to put in.

Anthony, good luck with the sell. I hope everything is going well with you.

Well all I can say it is a dang good thing they had a hard time finding the cows. That would have been an expensive mix up. That is probably one of the hardest hunts in the state by the way. Even the locals hate that hunt.

I just bought my daughter a Slik carbon fiber tripod from Cameraland for Christmas and ordered a decent fluid head for less than $200

Congrats to your wife on a great buck. Her smile says it all.

That is awesome. Congrats on a hunt of a life time. Everything worked our perfect.

If that Wilber is a girl I would hate to run into her in a dark alley. Because she was throwing punches with the best of them.

Congrats on a great bull. Would love to hear more of the story.

I have never used any of the others mentioned so I have no comparison but I have always been happy with Miller's. I think a lot of time they are finished faster than the date they give you. The worst is saying it is going to be 2 weeks and it ends up taking a month.

Lots of great memories and some a little fuzzy made there at Merle's. He was one of the sharpest witted guys I have ever met. I don't think he ever heard a joke that he didn't remember. Because he was never short on new jokes. It will definitely not be the same without him.

Way to go! That is awesome.

That .257 with a brake on it will be completely fine. I have a .243 that my daughter shot for a while and while I was working up a load for it I realized that it kicked more than my .270 WSM with a brake on it. So she started shooting it and actually enjoyed it more. And we only carried one rifle in the field instead of both. Just make sure you have hearing protection all the time. I accidentally shot once without it and after the initial shock and confusion of what I did I realized that concussion grenades really do work.

Congrats on a great buck! I wonder if the bears choice would have been Bud Light over Coors Light.

That buck has talent.

My daughter missed a shot at a great buck down south one year because she couldn't find it in the scope. I felt horrible because I felt like I let her down. I should have had her ready for the situation. We were set up on the buck at about 150 yards while it was bedded down. She was in the prone position with a dead solid rest on my pack and the buck in her cross hairs. I told her to shoot once it stood up and gave her a shot. Unfortunately the buck got up and instantly walked into a thick patch of ocotillo and did not give her a shot. So we picked up and ran around the other side of the ridge to cut it off. I found it at 200 yards broadside and threw the rifle up on my shooting sticks for her and she was never able to find it in the scope. She could see the buck but didn't understand keeping her eye on the buck and bringing the scope into position. So after that she got a lot of work with her M4 with a scope and going out plinking and just practicing bringing the scope up while keeping her eye on the target. I want to make sure that never happens again.

Congrats on a great hunt. That bear looks huge. Tiny looking ears.
