    great deal on a gps!

    Here's one of those "almost too good to pass up" deals from Cabelas. My 450 took a dump and I needed a new one. Couldn't pass this one up! Over $350 dollars off of their regular price. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Garmin174-Oregon-550T-GPS/709096.uts?Ntk=AllProducts&searchPath=%2Fcatalog%2Fsearch.cmd%3Fform_state%3DsearchForm%26N%3D0%26fsch%3Dtrue%26Ntk%3DAllProducts%26Ntt%3D550t%26x%3D15%26y%3D4%26WTz_l%3DHeader%253BSearch-All%2BProducts&Ntt=550t&WTz_l=Header%3BSearch-All+Products

    Unit 7 antelope

    I had one point when I drew it for the rifle hunt. There were 4 of us on the same application. None of us had ever applied for antelope before. At the time there were 50 tags for the unit and the 10% bonus pass was in effect. We were tag #'s 6-9. It's still my first choice for archery antelope. 2 years ago I had enough points to draw tag #1 for 18B archery antelope as my second choice. 7 was my first choice and I didn't have enough to draw it as an archery hunt. If I remember I had 12 points that year.

    What Church do you attend?

    First Southern in Buckeye or Palm Valley in Avondale. Attend whichever one the boss tells me I am going to attend. Both great churches!
  4. Selling my spotter. I just got everything back from Zeiss. They cleaned and recharged the scope and gave me a refurbished eyepiece. Limited lifetime transferable warranty and Storm Case comes with it. Stormcase is scuffed up with a piece of torn foam but in decent shape. Tripod is not for sale. Asking $1900
  5. Price reduced to $1900. This glass is in great shape. They are selling $3000 or more most places.

    5BS

    Was thinking of heading up to the Sawmill Hills area next month to do some scouting. Just curious if there is anyone that has hunted this area? I guess my main question is how is the hunting pressure? Lots of hunters? What about road conditions? Can I get a tent trailer anywhere near there? I drew this same tag last year and there were a lot more hunters in the area I hunted than in previous years. I am very familiar with parts of the southern/eastern parts of the unit but have never been too far north of Turkey Mt.

    5BS

    That is exactly what I am doing. I have hunted the unit a couple of times but am totally unfamiliar with the Sawmill area. I wanted to get a feel for the terrain and what roads were open. Maybe some info on past hunting pressure. I am going to have time for a scouting trip in a month and then one more in late August. I will decide then where to hunt. Thanks for the replies. They are appreciated.

    Broad heads for elk, 2014

    125 grain Slick Tricks. If there is a better all around broadhead I haven't found it yet.
  12. Yotebuster has it right. The arrows spin more with a helical thus slowing down.

    Black Gold ascent

    Too bad you are in the southern part of the state. I have a Spot Hogg 7 pin sight that I might consider trading.

    Diamond ring for sale or trade

    I worked a construction job where a guy auctioned off his wife for a weekend. If I remember he raised over $2200. Good looking girl

    They are starting to hit CC

    They post quick but if they follow the pattern they have in the past you need to do some math to find out if you drew. If I remember how it works......look at your current balance and available credit on your Cabelas card. If there are no pending charges the available balance will be the credit limit minus the current balance on your card.

    Spotting Scope Help

    I own a Zeiss. Like most scopes I have used the upper range magnification has issues with heat and crud in the air. Up to 40x it is crystal clear. Before I bought it I compared it to the Swaro's and thought the Zeiss was better but that is just me. I haven't tried any of the new HD versions of spotters so I couldn't comment on them.

    Fixed blade broadhead vs. mechanical

    Here's a Slick Trick bloodtrail that even I could follow. It makes no difference whether it is a mechanical or fixed blade. You put the arrow in the right spot and you have a dead animal. I have used both and have found no reason to change to a mechanical. Someday that may change but for now I shoot Slick Tricks.

    whats your back up plan?

    If they hit credit cards before the New Mexico application process closes I am putting in there. I also know an outfitter in southwestern CO that has an affordable drop camp for elk hunts. Worse case scenario is I am going archery deer hunting in AZ this summer

    Credit Card Hit!!!

    I'm pretty dense so I hope someone can explain to me why they were calling people about the applications when the deadline was about updating credit cards. I thought the window to fix a screwed up application was way past or did they change that too?

    Bank Card Cancelled!!

    They need to look at allowing us to create a user account with an alternate card just to cover this stuff. Most people have a couple of credit and/or debit cards. It would also do away with reentering the same info repeatedly when applying for multiple species. I don't know what bank you use but I would contact them to see if they can cover expenses from G&F. I recently had a similar issue and the bank was pretty gracious working with me. Another way to avoid this is put in with paper. The online system is so convenient but this is the kind of stuff that gets thrown into the works and screws everything up. I have several friends that won't apply any other way but the old fashioned way.
