I call it a healthy obsession that makes us strive to do better in everything just to get a chance to get back out and do what we love. Congratulations again buddy, it was an epic season with all of the highs and lows that ended just about perfectly. Beautiful big velvet buck.

Congratulations again man on that beast of a buck! Love it.

I've said it before but its worth saying again, huge congratulations amigo and what an epic trip in beautiful country and amazing trophy.

Very cool buck, congratulations and good luck on the second one to fill!

That just looks like an absolute blast (minus the snake). Congratulations to Camm on a nice buck and awesome making it a family affair.

This is what it is all about! Very very cool and huge congratulations to her on her first deer. Cherish these as the time goes by so quickly.

Saw this on IG, very cool and awesome job all the way around.

That right there is very cool. Congratulations to your wife on a nice bull in some pretty harsh conditions!

Enjoyed reading that very much and huge congratulations to you. Very awesome and to be able to share it with your dad as well is just wonderful.

In the late eighties and early nineties there were a few Merriams in the Chirachuas. My very first turkey tag in AZ was there. Saw and called in one jake.

Awesome pictures for sure. Mother Nature never fails to impress.

A big second for Kevin at Trinity Art but all of the artists there are top notch. Great atmosphere in the shop and awesome people. Erika has done a few for me, this being the latest.

I really enjoyed following along as the season progressed. Huge congratulations to you and Joe again, nobody does it any better than you fellas.

Happy belated Birthday, I hope you had a great one!

Great pics and critters!

Very nice! Congratulations!

Looks like a great time!

Congratulations on a very nice bird! Way to go!

Congratulations on a great bird! I'm hoping to battle the wind this weekend and find a bird or two that wants to play the game.

It makes me sick that we as a collective group seem to have the need to personally attack people without gathering all of the facts to formulate an educated opinion. I am currently undecided on this new group and the plans they are looking into even though I fervently fought most of the same group in 2012. I do believe there is a valid and urgent need for some type of group or funds to be able to react and fight for our heritage and rights when things come up and our AZGFD's hands are tied. I applaud Jay's efforts in getting the information out there as soon as he heard about it and some other members here who are taking the time to make phone calls and gather information. I will continue to mull everything over and dig up as much information as I can prior to coming up with my own opinion and throwing my support one way or another, I would hope that all true sportsmen would do the same. Again not replying to your post Flatlander, you bring up some valid questions that I would like answered as well.

I really enjoyed this banquet and look forward to the next one. Sorry I didn't win one of Ammon's calls but super happy with the Gibson reproduction I won (not to rub salt in the wound Ammon and hope you picked one up at the East Valley Banquet).

TSS=Tungsten Super Shot-completely different than heavy shot, blends, or lead. Smaller shot=more pellets and the TSS is higher weight density than steel or lead giving you the down range KE needed to be an effective killing load. As with anything you'd need to pattern it but I have seen and heard of very few that have had bad results. I personally would look for TSS-9's if you were going to go all in and it is legal in the state you plan on hunting. TSS used to only be available in hand loads but Federal, Nitro, and APEX all are commercially manufacturing it now.

What size is the jacket Dan?

Its funny, as I was reading I kept hearing the music from ESPN when an amazing play happens....you know what I'm talking about? Too good man, you continue to amaze me with the critters and the patience and all of it to make it happen. A huge congratulations!
