    Another toad hits the dirt

    She's a bit young boys .... come on!!!!!
  2. How exactly would one go about this? After hearing his crybaby tirades in his "Town Halls" I think its obvious he does not represent his constituents and needs to be removed.

    Custom Hunting Rig

    not for the streets, meaning not "street legal"?

    scopeless...

    You can do both ... reticles are probably quicker, but turrets will get you out farther. Having both is a bonus.

    Now that is what I call a Dandy of a Speed Goat!!!! Congrats.

    Sounds like this deer was well know for being hand fed, petted, etc. I'd say that is "tame", as it has lost its fear of humans. Again ... whether this guy knew it or not is another question.

    Danger in 30B

    I used to love the Border Units ... not anymore. Good luck to you. Sounds like this one is better than the one that I used to hunt (Arivacca).

    Anybody using a levergun for Coues?

    Some day, I will buy a Winchester 1895 converted to .35 Whelen or .338-06. That will be my "go to" hunting in the junipers rifle.

    Not sure people here are jealous ... but I think a lot are concerned about the circumstances. Bonecollector ... if your buddy shot a big coues he should put it on here. I'd guess there aren't any dubious circumstances on his hunt, and I love to see big deer taken and hear the story. Legal or not legal ... that is one question, and one that needs an answer. Ethical or not ethical ... I guess everyone will have a slightly different opinion on that. Me ... I'm not shooting a tame deer, whether it is on legal dirt or not. Of course, that is assuming that I know it is a tame deer ... and there are some people making assumptions that this guy knew I. I'm not saying he did or didn't, but maybe someone should ask ... When I hunt myself, I have some self imposed rules. I'm not shooting a spike, or a two point, or even a little 3x3. That is just me ... I'll let them grow into something I'm proud to show/post. I hunted 15 or more years before I got my first deer. It wasn't because I didn't see deer I could shoot, and it wasn't because I didn't have skill to take/make a shot. I passed up many, many deer over the years until I saw one that I could ethically take that met my requirements for a "mature buck". Go ahead ... take a pot shot and call me an idiot. I don't care. You are entitled to your opinion. I don't impose my rules on others ... just on myself. Now for my boys, who are young ... I'd let them take something smaller ... but not too much smaller.

    13A Strip DIY

    Like the man said....nasty roads. Good camping spots are few along the road south out of Fredonia, so get up there early...otherwise you are camping on rocks. Watch the Private land up there....get a BLM map if you don't have one. Bring good glass. If you don't have it, rent it at Ross...it'll help a lot.

    That much is a fact ... only takes a quick look at our Nation's politics to know that is the case. I am sure AZGFD will investigate the circumstances ... and they should. But I won't judge the guy based on what I think ... someone has to do some fact finding.

    Another toad hits the dirt

    Well ... my take is that if the man shot it on the correct side of the fence, he didn't do anything illegal, and should not be hounded. Sounds like he's trying to get going with guiding, and he'd probably not do anything to jeopardize that ... so what the heck ... if he did it legally then "Congrats" and be done with it. As to the ethics of hunting a tame animal ... its a tricky question. Guess if it was an animal that regularly ate from people's hands and was regularly petted by people, that wouldn't make it much of a challenge would it??? I hunt because I like the challenge, so that really wouldn't be for me. Still ... someone tell me when that load of apples and Snickers is getting dumped up there ... I'M HUNGRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Recall McLame

    Much as I hate to side with Vlad ... I think the Syrian Taliban gassed the rebels to bait the US and our DUMBDONKEY REGIMN to come in and destroy the Syrian Government so they can take over. Obama is jumping right in with both feet because he wants that to happen as well (and probably knows the Taliban did it). The evidence is overwhelming that he favors Brotherhood Control in that region. Egypt, Libya, and now Slyria. There is a design and a plan ... and it is insidious. Obama and other high ranking members of the government DO NOT LIKE ISRAEL. In my opinion, they are setting the table for a major war in that region, and the goal is to give Israel back to Islam. You don't have to be a genius to see it. Why else would Obama give the Brotherhood in Egypt a Billion Dollars, a bunch of jets, and a bunch of tanks (though we halted that transfer when the Brotherhood guy was ousted ... if he'd still been there we would have handed over the means to major war with Israel ... believe it). Like I said in another post ... when you smell crap, you can bet there is a pile of it nearby ... and I smell crap. Here's to hoping there are enough people with brains in the House to tell Obama to shove his Syrian War right up his skinny rearend!!!!!!

    Good idea if it was taken with a Camera that uses them.

    Flake deserves no more chances either. Lied about term limits. Soft on immigration...at least in my view. And folks...I gotta tell you ... my 14 year old is a reflection of my values and teaching ... I'm sure his is too. I tend to think when I smell crap, a pile of it is probably nearby. I smell crap.

    Another toad hits the dirt

    That's it i found a guy in town that has one heck of a mix for just this situation. It has everything in one mix, snickers bars, sweet feed, deer cocain, corn,brown sugar, salt but it's flavored with acorns, and last but not least , green apples. i'm backing a dump truck right up to the park fence and unloading it all there. I almost forgot, on the label my buddy put it was produced for the cattle industry. Top off the pile with 3 cams and walla, instant 230 park deer . It's the only chance i have of getting one to jump the fence, and all i want is a pic anyways. Let me know when you are backing that truck up ... I can shoot a buck and have a snack at the same time ... I love green apples and Snickers bars!!!!

    Recall McLame

    Thanks for the info on the website Snap. I'll be signing those petitions on both "Flakey Jeff" and McLame. They both SUCK. Wished I could get to a "Town Hall" and tell McCain what an A-Hole he is ... sure ... I'd get kicked out, but what a feeling of satisfaction that would give me!!!!!!! Carmona is a stooge for Obama. The people to vote for are the people who have never held office and are running just because they are tired of people having no good option. The few times I've heard Gosar (spelling???), he's seemed to have had his head on straight ... but heck, who knows what he's like most of the time. Love to see a third party get traction ... Michael Savage was preaching one a couple of years back ... the "Nationalist Party" ... the platform was "Books, Borders and Language". I liked that idea then, and love it now.

    Who has the best steak in town?

    Fogo is a great place to eat, but man o man does my gut hate me when I eat there. I'm digesting red meat for DAYS. Gotta go with DB on the Porterhouse ... NY and a Filet. Close second is a good, well marbled Rib Eye. Not sure why, but I don't really consider Prime Rib to be a "Steak" ... to me it is more like a slice of "Roast".

    .280 ackely improved dies

    You need to make sure you get the right ones. The original .280AI is not the same as the one that is SAAMI. Wrong one could be trouble.

    Recall McLame

    No. He was re-elected at the midterm elections, so he is DOING EXACTLY OPPOSITE OF WHAT ARIZONIANS WANT until 2016 ... that is too long. He's worn out his welcome.
