I love a good Sonoran Dog!!! Up here in Phoenix there is a couple who have a stand set-up in a lot at 20th Street and Indian School. It's fairly close.... Love stopping by there on a Friday or Saturday night! Anyone know of any other spots in Central Phx?? Would like to try more spots and compare.... S.

Welcome to the site, and an advanced welcome to the great state of Arizona!!! Stay tuned to this site for great information, company, and some fun stories/pics too! S.

As much as the video, the AUDIO is so awesome!!!!! To hear your excitement and encouragement when he is reeling in the first one is priceless!! Love the energy, laughing, and true love that is apparent in the video. Pure, simple, special times there for sure! THAT is what life is about! Great stuff! Thanks for sharing with the site! S.

I was chasing quail in 37B yesterday and fumbled-into a couple of nice muley bucks sparing. No bow or tag in hand, but it was fun to watch! S.

VERY awesome! Congrats and kudos for getting your son out there!!! Nothing better! S.

Missed this one before. Glad it got bumped to the top! AWESOME!!!!! Congrats to Elijah, and thanks for posting!!! Good stuff! S.

+1 Casey! Couldn't have worded it better....... S.

Correction: My Remington is a 7400..... ( I made a typo). Picked it up while in college for $70! Hunted with it with open sites for several years.... Long live the semi-auto rifle!!! Especially the BAR's!!! Had a friend with one of the Remington pump 30-06 models. Good/fun/reliable rifles! S.

LOVE the BAR's!!! That one is a beauty! I have a BAR in .7mm Rem Mag caliber that my father bought for me 25 years ago that I absolutely cherrish! I also have a nice Remington 7400 semi-auto in .308 that I like quite a bit too (All three of my kids killed their first deer with that one.....). Thanks for sharing the pic of that fine looking rifle! S.

GoPro cameras are AMAZING! This company has hit on a niche market, and their cameras deliver amazing results! I'm about ready to take the plunge! Snow skiing, biking, fast cars, whatever..... Cool footage delivered by these cameras! The remote vehicles (quadcopter in this case) are also amazing! Great merger of technologies!! Fly safe, Amanda! S.

Checked this post again, and suddenly the yogurt I had for breakfast just isn't quite cutting it! Sitting here at my desk with my stomach growling!!!! Thinking some chicken fried venison and eggs will be on the menu this weekend! Thanks for making me hungry!! S.

7MM. Remington Mag. Usually shoot 160-180 grain bullets off the shelf. (I'm am NOT a long range shooter.....) S.

Good stuff! 'Chicken Fried' anything is usually good!!! To keep them from being chewy, maybe try pounding them a bit prior to breading/frying (if you didn't already)...... A little work with the meat-tenderizing hammer can work wonders on Chicken Fried food! Looks yummy! Bon Apetite!!] S.

+1 Happy birthday Doug! S.

+1!!!!! Amanda will NEVER let that happen! S.

Just means it's a topic that is 'pinned' to the top of the list of topics in that forum. It's not the forum that is pinned, it's the topic within the forum that is pinned. Again, it's just a way for a topic to stay 'fresh' and at the top of a forum. S.

Not as many as I should have....... I'm a horrible shot! S.

Awesome for you! Apparently a GREAT hunt and quite obviously AWESOME video (including the post production/editing work!!! Love the 'bawitdaba'.... ) Thanks for sharing! S.

Actually it's not the "new truck talk...." that pisses me off. (Ummm.... I think someone else said that seeing a new pick-up pisses THEM off! lol) In fact, not much of anything really 'pisses me off....'. I'm a pretty easy going guy........ It's the argument that driving 10 year old trucks would be better for the financials of the department that I'm questioning. If the organization buys a new truck every 2 years or every 10 years, the cost is the same for that particular asset. Depreciation ONLY determines now long the org. has to write the asset off. Depreciation has nothing to do with how much the asset costs. I guess as I think of it, depreciation frankly should really not be that big of a consideration. It is primarily meant for a business to write-down the value of an asset relative to the benefit (or income) that the business is gaining from the asset. Might not be that applicable here in a public service and/or government agency that is a 'not for profit' org. Either way, my point is that it's easy for you and/or I to second-guess what the department is doing but to me, simply stating that the department should keep their vehicles for 10 years sounds like a bit of an ignorant statememt (unless you have the maintenance and other costs figured into the equation), which I haven't seen from you. I suspect if it made logical financial sense to keep the vehicles that long, that they would. I suspect that there are actual accountants (I'm just an amature....) that have figured it all out for the department. Happy hunting and good luck in the draws! S.

Huh??? Depreciation doesn't 'cost' anything. It's simply the way a company (or organization) accounts for the reduction in value of an asset over time. It's just allocating the cost of the asset over it's useful life and has nothing to do with making the asset cost more or less. The 'used ones' would have been depreciated just like the 'new ones'...... It would have nothing to do with the maintenance costs of the asset.
