I have to agree with that. Let's get the kids out there and have a great time. We who have done this for years have to get these kids out there and get them interested in this hunting. I've heard that there are those who don't like this because it puts presure on the area that they have scouted and now there are a bunch of hunters in the field. Give the kids a break and chill out. TJ

Good pics! I have got to get my cameras out. Thanks for sharing. TJ

I really think Cathi would like for me to have it. I'll pick it up at the wedding. TJ

I'm sure everyone thought I was making fun but it's true. My Grandfather was a tool & die maker and he was an avid hunter. I don't know all the history behind this gun but I do know my Grandfather told me I could shoot 28ga. shot gun shells out of it. I don't recommend anyone try this but I have shot squirrels with this gun back in the 60's. I'm leaning towards shooting a gobblers with it just to know my Grandpa would be proud. Being from Ohio I'm sure he would have never guessed in a million years a turkey would be shot in Arizona with this set up. TJ

That is one big turkey Micheal shot and the picture is awesome. Congratulations to the young hunter. I've shot a few over the years but never one that big. TJ

Congratulations on your turkey and thanks for sharing the pictures. TJ

Congratulations to Brittany and the picture saids it all. It brings back memories of a turkey hunt I helped a young girl on many years ago. Thanks for the story and I'm sure Brittany had some stories to tell the boys back at school. Way to get it done Dad and Jack C. TJ

Way to seal the deal. Congrats and it must have been great to have had your Mom on the hunt filming. TJ

Congratulations on your birds and get them pictures up. TJ

Is this house for sale? Let me start the bidding. TJ

Wow, that has got my blood pumping. I can't wait till the elk hunt starts after watching that one. Thanks for sharing. TJ

Mark, I also have a springfrield but it is a model 1884. Serial #52187. It belonged to my grandfather and I shot squirrels with it back when I was in high school. See ya at the wedding. TJ

Grong, you must be a bone magnet for sure. Sweet and thanks for sharing with us. TJ

Sorry to hear about your loss Casey. I know how you and the rest of the family must feel. I had to put 2 labs down and a cat that was over 20yrs old. It's never easy. They do become family members and my heart goes out to you and your family. TJ

I saw the same one last Thursday around 3:45pm, coming back from turkey scouting, and posted then but no one responed. Who might this be? TJ

Congratulations on your goulds tag. I have been wating for some answers on here with interest. If I had plans on mounting him I would leave him whole and wipe off as much blood as possible then put paper towel, toilet paper, or something of the sort in his mouth to stop any blood or fluids from leaking. Keep the feathers as straight as possible and wrap him in a plastic garbage bag and place him on ice. You can make a little incision and remove the inerds but that isn't neccessary. Some will say it's not good to place it in a garbage bag becuese it will not let the heat out and this is true but not if it is going directly into the ice chest. Dedicate an ice chest just for your bird. You won't have to rush home and it will keep just fine for several days. On that note I would also suggest calling your taxidermist and ask how he would like you to take care of it. Good luck on your hunt. TJ

Thanks Brent! TJ

I have been leaning towards a rino and was wondering if any members here have them and what are their response to all the media. Were the accidents reckless on behave of the drivers or are they really that bad? It's got me thinking ranger after all the hype. Anyone care to offer their opion? TJ

Just got home from work and watched the video and had to call the wife in to see it. We were both cracking up at her reaction. My wife just drew her first bull tag and I could just picture that being my wife's reaction for sure. Great job on the camera and thanks for sharing. TJ

Congratulations to the hunter and thanks for sharing the pics. Awesome! Congratulations to Randy on the winning bid as well. Take care of your Dad Christian and tell him I wish him well on his lion hunt. Waiting for the pictures. TJ TJ

Fixed all the way! TJ

From my house to yours, I'ld like to wish everyone a Happy Easter.

Casey, congrats. on you and your Dad's bucks. Looks like Scotty did a great job. Thanks for sharing and good luck with the new job. TJ

Kent, that was very gracious and unselfish of you to offer your help to another fellow hunter and of deserthntr as well. I would like to think that this site is about helping others and I have come to dislike the word E-SCOUTER. Not everbody has the means or the funds and this site has some of the best information available to those. On that note I would also like to say that we have some of the best outfitters, as sponsors here on coueswhitetail, for those who choose to go that route. Coues79...shoot a bigen and post your pics and story after your hunt. Good luck my friend! TJ
