Congrats to Jared on a fine bull,and thank you to Darr,Parker,and Brian for making it happen.

Sorry for your loss,sounds like a real special man.I had a couple of them in my life that I had met through my dad.One of them worked for the game and fish from 1929-1964,and then became a commissioner for the dept.So many memories,we are blessed to have known them.

Beautiful Bear,reminds me of my first bear on the rez.We didn't know what we were doing,but paid our 25.00,hunted all spring,went back on the same tag,and got her done in the fall.It was 1976

Congrats on a nice one.

Lance,it sounds like the whole family was in on this one.Kudos to everyone for saving your buddys life!!!!Cliff

They are not that far from us,don't even think that it couldn't happen here.People in Phoenix and Tucson will dictate how we will live,you only have to go back as far as banning trapping on state-forrest land for an example.

I packed in about 30 years ago,and killed a real nice whitetail with a rifle.Also did a archery pig hunt,where we killed pigs in the snow.This was around fish creek,haven't been back for years.

All of the antelope pics are nice,hard to pick one over the other.

Thank you,Coues n sheep,for the positive comment.

Draw results are on G&Fwebsite

Thank you Amanda,it was another great time.It was good seeing TJ and Peg,and also Roger and Ilene.Amanda bought 2 tables just for the veterans,we all owe you a tip of the hat.Cliff

I'm happy for you,I drew my desert tag 5 years ago after applying 39 years.

So sorry for your loss,I've got a border collie that I try to forget how old she is,cos I don't want to face it.Lance said it best,puppies help ease the pain.

I feel your pain joe hunter,I'm old so I won't be around as long as my kids.They are the ones I feel sorry for.

Dogs and kids go together like peas and carrots!!!Congrats on a fine addition to the family.

Price?

I slept in a hammock for a year in the bush in Vietnam,had a hard time for the first couple of weeks at home in a bed.The hammock was a lot better than an air mattress,as the leeches,and snakes couldn't reach you.A hammock is fine as long as it is fairly warm,if it is very cold you will freeze to death.Not enough insulation between you and the air.Cliff

Lance,didn't know Dan,but if he was a friend of yours,I wish I had.Sorry for your loss,prayers sent for him,and his family,Cliff

I'm with swivelhead on this one,why even bring up Tony's name?The only person that Tony had to please with his sheep was himself.He had applied more years for sheep than most of the peanut gallery is old so give the guy a break.

In March another member,and I went to a "whitetail Bootcamp" in Iowa that Barry Wensel puts on.He told us a story about a trail cam contest that his brother won,the prize was a top of the line Stealthcam.Now get this,this was a national contest,he received not the camera that was promised,but a lesser camera.To make matters worse,the camera he was sent did not work,so he contacted Stealthcam.They told him to put it on a table,turn it on,face down for 30 days,and then contact them if it didn't work.After doing all of this it still didn't work,he called them,and they told him there was nothing they could do as his warranty had run out!!!! Unbelievable customer servce.

You guys are getting way off the subject,I thought the thread was about Chad Smith,and the helicopter.

Go ahead and buy the Swarovski's HD 15x56,you will never regret it.And yes there is a reason everyone is upgrading to the HD's.

The beaver that was released yesterday was up on the OX ranch.My son was one of the people carrying the kennel to the water.This was on Date Creek,by the Joshua Forest,off of 93.

I'll take it Lance,call me at 928 499 9267,and we will work out the details.Cliff

You don't know how refreshing it is Jim, to hear something positive about someone else.I have never met you,or Josh,but I follow you guys every day in the Forum.You,Randy,and Josh,are hunting machines.Merry Christmas to all,and Happy Hunting.
