I'm sorry to say Peg and I won't be able to attend. I hope everyone whoever thought about attending one of these banquets decides to do so. You won't be disappointed. Lots of fun and just knowing you are helping the wildlife makes you feel really good about yourself at the end of the day. You also could win some really great prizes as well. TJ

That's an awesome picture of your Dad. Glad you two were able to get out together. I'm also pleased to see some smallies showing back up. Thanks for posting. TJ

There might be something to what you are saying Bill. I have never taken a centerfire rifle while fishing. You might be on to something here. TJ

It's been over 25yrs since I've fished there and congratulations on a nice fish. I hope to get some fishing in during the cwt outing. Thanks for sharing! TJ

Hope you had a great day and many more. TJ

I started out saying this no good piece of sh!* deserves whatever he gets but then realized I was on a family site so I have changed my mine and respectfully just want to say I hope this piece of sh!* ,( leaving out the no good), gets the fullest fine and jail time allowed by law. ps....this is the one thing in life that just burns my a$$ and I'm not usually one for expressing my feelings as I've done but it is what it is. I hope this person realizes what he has done and shows remorse or he can burn in He!!. TJ

Happy Birthday and it sounds like tomorrow is going to be just as good with that breakfast scheduled. Enjoy! TJ

I don't know a whole lot about training a dog and was wondering what your ideas were of the e-collar training? I read a few articles on the enternet but was wondering if any of you have any good training tips for me. I plan on using Lexie for mostly dove and duck hunting. She house trained by 12 weeks and now has learned sit, lay down, stay, and needs more training on her heeling. I took her for her first real swimming lesson yesterday at Saguro Lake and she blew me away. Here she is on her first retrieving session. She never hesitated to swim out to the dummy and bringing it back. She is 15 wks old. Lexie's first retrieve She is pretty tired after around 2 dozen retrieves She slepted all the way home

Good one! TJ

I wish I could help you with you camera situation but I would like to say good luck and have a safe trip. We'll expect lots of pictures when you get back. TJ

Thanks again to everyone for your advise and pm's. I especially like the idea of the beer retrieve from elmergoo. If I could only get Lexie to master that it would definitely take some relief off the wife. Thanks 300ultramag for your advise and glad to see you back on here. Sounds like you might have a little experience with the dog training and I agree on the short training periods starting out. Thanks Andy! TJ

Thanks deserthntr. Sure wouldn't want to make her gun shy. I will take that advise serviously. TJ

Thoughts and prayers for family and friends. What a shame. I believe someone said on another post that it was just a matter of time before this would happen to an American citizen, hunter, or outfitter. Sad TJ!

Congratulations are in order for one mean looking critter. Thanks for posting and good luck next year as well. TJ

It's got my vote! Good one Jim. TJ

That's a good one. TJ

It certainly would help out the farmers and if it worked we would forever be gratefull for helping such a tragic event. TJ

Congratulations on your new daughter. She's a doll. TJ

It was a pleasure to meet you this Sat. and thanks for the pictures of my old hunting grounds. I have taken a lot of game from that area around Apache Lake and you certainly have away with bringing out the beauty of any part of the state you visit. Thanks Doug! TJ

Well, I have never been much of a hockey fan before but I'm on the band wagon now. Amanda was the MVP during the championship game which they won in 2002, if I got it right, and it doesn't surprise me one bit since she is our MVP of the internet. This is just awesome information we got on our leader and how has she kept it a secret for so long? Go Killer! TJ

Sounds like you had a good time out enjoying the spring weather trying to come thru and overtake the snow melt. I'll be at Big Lake the first 10 days of July and hope to catch some left over fish from last year. I know now is the time to be there but that's the best I can do. Good luck on getting Mr. Gobbler and keep us posted how it goes. Thanks for posting. TJ

Just to be clear, the TJ he is talking about is NOT TJHunt2, it's another guy who said his forum name was Hunter Tom or something like that. Don't want to get TJHunt2 in trouble with his wife!! Afterall, his wife might be getting jealous after seeing him in the CW.com dance team video!! Peg, you should take a pic of you in the new CW.com shirt and post it. Or maybe you are going to wear it to one of the banquets? I wish I had a girlfriend who would buy me a new Hoyt bow. jk I had Peg read Chef's post and she thought it was pretty funny. Thanks for clearing that up Amanda or who knows what might have happened if Peg got a hold of this first. Peg likes her new shirt and wants to know if everyone is going to wear theirs to the ada banquet on June 5th? TJ

Thanks for sharing Gino and I'm glad you made it home alright. Congratulations on your harvest. TJ

I hope this Mother's Day is a great one for each and every Mom out there. ENJOY! TJ

Stopped by Jeremy's new shop yesterday, coming back thru Payson from Jackshoe's turkey hunt, and visited for about an hour. It was nice meeting some new cwt members, and seeing others I've already known. Jeremy has a very nice shop and I wish you well on your new career Jeremy. I would have liked to have stayed longer but Jackshoe and I had been in the woods for a few days and didn't want to run anyone one out of there if you know what I mean. Doug.... it was nice to have met you finally and hope your ride back down the Apache Trail wasn't to dusty for some good pictures. Christain.... I especially enjoyed talking with your Dad about bird dogs. Be sure and thank your Dad for some helpfull tips on training my new lab. Jimmer...glad to see you again. Amanda.....thanks for the shirts and Peg's fits good and glad to hear your new dog is working out for you and Paul. Elk-a-Holic....hope you had some luck on your turkey hunt GH.....sorry I missed Danny but I just couldn't wait to get back to near 100deg temps. TJ
