    Sick of the Arrogance

    Whatever happened to just hunting cause you enjoy it and like the challenge for yourself. Nowdays its all about how big the animal is and bragging. Which is totally fine if you work your @%#& off for it. But like it was said in a previous post, People pay thousands to be guided on a hunt just so they can say "Look what I shot!" Never having done any of the work or even knowing how. Just point and pull the trigger. People think way to high of themselves or perhaps not, maybe why they need something to bost about. People lie, cheat and steal to great lengths, all for attention. Pathetic really!

    Unit 1 Fire?

    I completely disagree. You are correct that we have had over sixty years of aggressive fire suppresion. The US Forest Circus has not allowed the forest to be "managed". An this is what we get. We don't live in "unsettled" territory. We cannot allow things to burn as they did when the dinosaurs roamed. The forest has to be groomed. That can happen naturally or through good management techniques (read logging). If it happens naturally you get a Rodeo-Chedeski Fire.....an then who have you helped? What resources have you managed? You haven't. The US Forest Circus won't allow any of the timber to be harvested....so those precious natural resources will again be mismanaged and abused. Anyone that thinks we need to let "mother nature" manage things naturally needs to go get their head examined....better yet go live in the city with all the rest of the retards and stay the heck out of OUR forest. You don't belong. You are un-natural! If you get banned for those 2 posts, then there is no point in having open forums for comments. Things cant always be nice and politically correct. Just like real life. Perhaps we could help cut our national debt by eliminating the FS!! Obviously there version of "management" isnt actually managing anything, So whats the point?? They only jump when its already to late and we pay by the millions to fight these fires. The people in charge, like our wonderful politicians, need a healthy fear for there jobs for lack of doing them. Perhaps then they would take things serious.

    Unit 1 Fire?

    Hope the structures and Alpine make it out ok. Hopefully this will be for the better once it is all done.

    Vortex HD's or ZenRay

    Any experiance looking through these? I would like to get a pair of the Razor HD's in a 10x 0r 8x42 but not sure if I want to or can spend the amount they are now going for. Anybody seen the diffrence between the Talons and the Vipers?? Wheres the best place to pick some up to look through? Cabelas doesnt sell them right now for some reason. It seems like there lines have gone to HD.

    Vortex HD's or ZenRay

    Any places in Tucson that has good optics selection to look through?? I will try Sportsmans but was just curious about any others.

    Vortex HD's or ZenRay

    So would you put the Zen Ray's on the level of the Razors or Vipers? The one thing I really like about Vortex is the warranty. If the Zen Rays and vortex are comparable in quality but the Vortex equivalent is just a little more in price, than I would go with the Vortex due to the warranty. Does Sportsmans carry the Zen Rays?? I looked at some 10x42mm Diamondbacks at Gila Outdoor and they were clear as can be. Especially considering the price! I thnk they were way better than the Leupolds I had and better than Nikons I looked through.

    .243 for sale $750

    Its called add stomping, and alot of other websites suspend or kick you off there site for doing it. If you find a lower price, PM the individual if you just have to tell them it is too high. Good to see it sold.

    Vortex HD's or ZenRay

    I dont necessarily have to have HD's but it seems that alot of optics are going that route and maybe that will be the only offerings in the future, I dont know though. I wish I had bought some of the Razors cameraland had on sale like 6 monsth ago or so. Looking back now, they were a really good deal and available. Now its hard to find Razors available or for less than $1000. Maybe Doug can chime in and tell the difference between the 3 models.

    Vortex HD's or ZenRay

    I might check Mt graham archery, Gila Outdoor never keeps a stock of them anymore for some reason. I am looking at binos not spotting scopes. What Vipers do you have, power wise?? What other binos would you comparer them to? Thanks!

    Those big eyes looking at me while it was screaming would freak me out! Did it even try to bite or anything??

    elk vs woves

    We have gas prices approaching or expected to reach $5 a gallon, cause we dont, cant, won't drill for oil. We have a economy in shambles and zero manufacturing to help us rebound cause we can't build factories. All due to these enviro nut jobs and our governments lack of ability to stand up to them and do what is right by the people. Actually our goverment placates them and tries to appease them. But that is also our fault for electing the people we do and not standing up to all of it and demanding an end to it. This may be a joke but I could see this actually being tried !

Almost for sure will lose Williams but most will be back and a top 10 recruiting class coming in, things are definetly looking up again for the program. This was a great experiance for such a unexperienced, young group. Lots to look forward to !

    UofA

    Hey ScumDevils, this is how basketball is played! Maybe one day you guys can possible hang a single Final Four banner in Wells Fargo arena, Well probably not but maybe an NIT in a few years. Looks like Sean Miller has the Cats back to Arizona winning ways. Even if they do lose to UCONN! Derrick Williams isnt human !!

    Coyote meat not appealing! Of course some people would eat pickled turds if offered.

    conspiracies

    either way we could be screwed. Hopefully not. Heard Glenn Beck and someone else on the radio say its time to invest in....food! Kinda creepy.
  24. Any of you get into this stuff? Not really a believer in conspiracy theories and all that but been reading alot about our economy and all what seems like what is happening here in the US. The devaluation of the dollar and if there really is a push to have us under a one world currency and government. Seems alittle scary considering we all know the we are in debt beyond belief and what could happen should our debtors(China,etc) not give anymore credit or not take US dollars for goods-Arab states for oil! Dont read to much into this, it could make you clinically depressed if you got sucked to far into it. Just think I payed to much attention in the past to hunting and not what has been going on. Anyone know much about this or pay it much attention.

    Interested, I'm in Tucson, any chance of meeting somewhere? The price is good and would fulfill a very useful function here, the thought of driving back to Safford after doing it last week isn't appealing. Thanks, Gene If you mean meeting in Phoenix somewhere yes.
