Congratulations on having some meat for the freezer. My nephew was out this past weekend in Delaware County but got skunked. His buddy did get a rather large doe thought. He got a nice blackbear there last year.

Did you send it overnight?

That's a good record. With point creep I'm not sure I'll ever draw a Rifle Antelope Tag as a resident.

So were you spraying oil based paint? In the early 70's I worked for a guy that had a few different businesses and one of those was spraying undercoating on cars. We used GRACO sprayers which were really easy to rebuild.

Great Shooting. Lance knows his stuff.

Good catch. CO not CO2.

Back in about 92 me and a couple of buddies drove in through New River and camped in the desert below the Mesa. Hunted it for three day and didn't see too much so they left on Sunday. Monday I hiked about half a mile in and was on a flat below the Mesa when I saw two sets of antlers hauling bouncing north. I hauled butt and knowing Mulies usually go up when spooked I soon found them running west about 75' below the rim. I shot the bigger 4x4 and it took an hour to climb up to him. I boned him out and the pack back to camp was brutal. My buddy pulled a 5x6 out of there a few years before.

Good to hear. I know that even on regular hunts competition is fierce and sometime ethics aren't what they should be.

So, did they shoot it out from underneath the other hunter?

Were they in a tent?

Monster.

Great scope. If it is the same as the Z5 Series Swarovski offers a custom turret that is caliber/bullet specific tuned for that bullet which is what I did for mine in 168gr 7Mag.

Whatever you say Cup Cake. Grind that axe.

His lawyer earned his fee. Like they say, deny, deny, deny and make counter accusations.

Great Post.

Are you just trying to get your money out of it?

Love those G20's.

Bummer for sure. I personally would never leave one unattended. https://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-SmartTag2-Bluetooth-Tracker-Tracking/dp/B0CCBP3XN8/ref=asc_df_B0CCBP3XN8?mcid=f12892135ec439cd88ae46de901b375f&tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693308325730&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12542803008481229409&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030029&hvtargid=pla-2228835594948&th=1

Going to be a cold one.

I dropped a pair of Steiner 8x30's years ago. They are a paperweight now.

That one on the left is a Collard Dove. Super rare to see a WW this time of year. I got one last year, must have been lost.

I worked so nothing for me.

That crap is all over the bayou. Lost a neighbor and his ex wife the same night next to my brother earlier this year.

I've often thought to myself that every trip is a learning experience. My first solo deer hunt was a memorable one. I had a 68Chevy truck with a six cylinder and two wheel drive. I drove in on Four Peaks rods and took a road back to an old deserted ranch one day after work. Slept in the back of the truck and heard some hewhaw's and thought, so that's why they call them mule deer. Got up early, grabbed my 44 Contender and a Featherweight 06 I had bought earlier on clearance for $269 at Walkin Auto in Tempe. So, off I went down the wash to the upper end of the lake. About two hundred yards farther I rounded a bend and there were two spikes sparing, maybe 30 yards. I pulled up the rifle and shot one. They both took off over the burm in the same direction. I went over and found blood and started to follow it. I trailed it for a short distance and it took me back to the opposite side of the wash. Then I followed it down the wash and came across the buck lying dead under a paloverde tree. I had some rope and tied it around the buck and over a branch. I pull the buck up in the tree as far as I could by lifting it up with one arm and pulling the rope with the other. I had it gutted a short time later and threw him up over on my shoulders and carried it back up the wash. I was glad when my truck came into view and when I got to it I reached up and dropped the tailgate and laid the buck down. It took me about an hour to get home and the wife was a work. I put some plastic down on the kitchen table and did my best butchering my first buck and was done by about 11. That was probably 40+ years ago.
