Situational Awareness... Feeling like a Jackwagon.
Couzer replied to Scooter's topic in Predator Hunting and Trapping
+1 to that comment. It's the responsibility of any individual who understand the worth of fur to attempt to educate those who do not. Whether or not they listen is their own business. General acceptance of moral grandstanding all depends on the topic at hand. If I made a post about shooting a mule deer with an under-calibered rifle I'd get chewed out by the masses on this forum, but someone who wastes a natural resource like fur just for the thrill of the kill is given a free pass all because 'it's legal'. I'm not interested in the monetary value of the fur- I thought I made that very clear. I am not just "killing animals" for any type of thrill (although calling and shooting predators is pretty exciting) I wasn't looking for advice when I originally posted this, nor did I ever ask anyone what they thought about people who harvest Furbearers in what is considered "not prime" seasons. If we're going forward with opinions here- I think it much more "moral" and sporting to harvest animals that are free running and not attached to a leg-trap, snare or confined in a cage trap of some sort... Trappers seem to be the most bent-out-of-shape about the AZGFD August 1st Predator/Furbearer opening. Don't you go thinking for one minute that what you do to these animals is any more "moral" or "right" than harvesting one in an early season. You use bait, catch an animal in a trap, and it dies tethered to the trap or you dispatch it when it has no chance of getting away. From the time the animal is first caught in the trap to the time it dies, it suffers greatly. Doesn't bother me one bit. I think trapping is awesome and traditional. If I had the cash and the time I'd be a trapper too. If that's what you do, and it's legal, have a great time in the outdoors doing it! That's your thing and I am not somebody who will criticize your methods. So don't criticize mine. If I want a summer fox to skin out and have for my own trophy room- I certainly don't consider that a waste of an animal at all. The fur is being used and that's the bottom line. The funny thing is... I didn't even shoot any foxes and you "prime fur" guys are all up in arms over the thought of it. ...and what exactly is an under-calibered rifle for mule deer??? Dead is dead- no matter how big of a hole it took to kill it. Agreed, great post Scooter. -
My groups are under 1/2" at 300 yards. Same load is just over 1/2" at 100 yards. Just something to think about. Every rifle is different though

The owner of Bear Mountain, Ed is a good guy. However I only shop there when needed due to a employee Howey, who worked behind the counter. Bear mountain was or still is a sponsor of this site ran a deal for CW members to make them a offer on any gun and they would negotiate a good deal on a gun. So I went in trying to negotiate a price and the first thing Howey gave me so much crap about trying to buy a rifle below the marked price. Anyways I bought my first water balloon launcher from them when I was 8 years old, my first deer/elk rifle, and other rifles from them and now I have been there maybe 2 times in the last 5 years. I will only deal with Ed, for I really do believe he is a good guy. For Howey he can go F himself, I never been so mad in my life at someone who tried to talk down to me, but did not let him. I know he has friends on here and hope they relay the message.

Deer, Bear and ? what is the cat picture, notice the tail and spots
Couzer replied to grandmawhitetailhunter52's topic in Trail Cameras
Looks like a Jag! Nice pics -
Had a few offers at $200, maybe I need to lower the price a little. I really don't need to sell it but thought I would put it out there since its hard to find.

Either your short or that's a nice bobcat! Correction either way it's a nice bobcat and on top of that you shot it with a bow!

Hummmm are you saying there's no Alaskan Grizzlys in Az ??? Point was if bear spray will stop a griz, imagine what it would do to az black.
-
There was a National Geographic show they aired 5-10 years ago that showed the effectiveness on bear spray that stopped angry grizzly bears. It was pretty cool
-
+1000 if bear is out of season Bear spray will drop, stop and repel a bear in its tracks. Bear in season, .357 with hot loads.
