This is exactly me. The reward comes from me doing the work and then getting the animal. Someone else doing everything for me, then me walking up and just shooting it, does not appeal to me in the least. I hunt cause I like to hunt. Not just kill. But if someone is so inclined to do so, thats ok. Just not my cup of tea.

No judgement here, just asking why people use them. I highly doubt I will ever use one. I feel the same way mattys281 feels. For me to spend that coin on one hunt, I cant justify it. But thats me. Not saying that for eveyone else. The other side of it is, I know alot of people who do judge those who dont kill only trophys or spend the money on guides and such. I agree, if someone wants to spend the money, have it. Its your money, your right. I spend alot on things others wouldnt so again, to each there own.

They dont seem to know, or be telling us the truth. Not sure which. But how you contract it seems to change daily. I dont trust our government one bit, especially this bunch but not sure how serious this is or isnt either. Telling us that stopping travel in or out of infected countries won't help, but could be worse! Really??? So whay quarantine anyone to a house then either. Absolutley nuts!!

If the SEC beats each other up, its cause there a really good strong conference, but if the Pac-12 does it, its cause there weak. The fact that Oregon beat Michigan State and has the same record now yet ranked ahead of them proves the bias. Its obvious. No I dont think the Cats can go undefeated but the conference talent wise is alot more level throughout, minus Colorado, then its ever been. Even Washington State has come along way. Hard to tell who really is good and who is not right now.

Might wanna put this in the classifieds section of this forum

Never understand why people want to camp, hunt, fish etc, right on top of each other when there are thousands of other places to go. Glad you got you one! What's the story on the house cat though? Found that funny

Kaibabs are nice but I'm one of the ones that they don't fit my eyes/face very good. Anyone know if Sportsmans in Tucson or Phx have any Monarch 5s on to try?? And......Beardown Arizona

Anybody tried these? They have 16s and 20s. Just curious if they are worth the coin for there price. I usually like Nikons optics considering there price range

Beardown!!

Perhaps the Smith and Wesson bodyguard might be better. Never tried so not sure. A lot of people scoff at the 380 and while not ideal, it's a whole lot better then nothing. Especially considering how concealable it is. Buffalo Bore makes some stout hardcast lead loads for it that make it punch a lot harder.

This is funny. Unit 1 is not managed for a trophy unit. Its a product of the fire. 300 archery bull tags and a cow hunt going on the same time. Its a joke. Sure there are some giants but gnf shouldn't take credit for managing it that way. Maybe we should thank the USFS for torching the unit. Just give it a few more years. It'll be what 3a 3c now is. Because they managed it for trophy bulls about 10 yrs ago too. 27 is that way as well. They are stacking hunt on top of hunt. Went to setup camp for my dads early rifle bull hunt and people were every where. The 2 archery hunts(bull and cow)were still going on. The elk were pushed back in after 2 weeks of constant pressure. It wasn't how I imagined the early hunts would be like.

I assume 27 or 1? I ll be up there this week. Creepy. What HK.. USP 45???

Wow! What a finish. Dam Direct Tv, no having the PAC 12 network

I hope this is true! Be headed to 27 for my dad's rifle hunt next Wednesday.

Wouldn't live that far East for anything, done it once. Never again. Too many people, not enough public land. Love it out West!

Gotta think, he may have no idea what spooked him as long as you didnt chase him and push him. Trees drop limbs, boulders and rocks come loose and roll and I m sure they all spook at those and then go right back to business not ever knowing what it was. I bet he stays in the vicinity.

No kidding. Especially when they arent as hard on there own staff for violating rules. Hypocrisy runs deep.

Did he spook out of the country or can you get back on him??

I've been thinking for sometime about trying something new or different as far as type of rifle I use to hunt. I recently got a M1A and am seriously thinking of using it, open sights, for my deer hunt this year or next. Any of you ever try something other then bolt action, scoped rifles for hunting ie a m1garand, lever action in something other than 30-30, pistol caliber carbine?? Interested to see the replies. Thanks

Got a 1903A3 also. Might need to dig that out to. It's killed deer since the 60s when it was bought, unissued, for like $15!

Thats awesome! ARs arent as common as bolts but are used alot now adays esecially for varmint calling. I almost never hear of someone using lever actions anymore and even more so with an older caliber and models as yours. My grandfather shot his last deer with an older Vietnam triangle stock AR-15 back in the late 80s open sights. Took 3 good shots to put the buck down at about 150+ yards. I just remember him being very unhappy saying the gun(caliber) wasnt up to task for hunting deer sized animals.

Its crazy you went that far in to begin with and hadnt seen much of anything, including in the river. Wonder why its like that, figured there be wildlife all over in there. At least it got better as it went on.

Everything is agenda driven. No one cares about the truth or doing it right. There next project to keeping us out is the grizzly bear. Theyre already close to dumping it on us now. Just a matter of time. All of this is by design, every bit of it. Its not that they are stupid, quite the contrary actually. They have a plan and they are going to use our system against us with the help of there own in political office. Towns and cities will be the only place they'll allow us to be if they can have it there way.

Not suprising. The PEOPLE dont run anything in this country anymore, the government does. We may be more free then most countries but not as free as the constitution intended us to be from a burdensome and overbearing government. Its just a matter of time before it is a full blown tyrannical governemt.

Always liked the 10mm. Wish Sig would make one similar too a 220 or double stack 226!
