PRDATR

I think they have only been available for less that 3 years. I bought a pair about 2 1/2 years ago.

It shot that bad? It doesn't make any sense to do the legwork to buy the rifle/caliber and scope and then decide it isn't what you need.

Not only should it not be further restricted but trapping on public land should be brought back and predator competitions. I hunt because I love to pull the trigger and see stuff die, not going to lie. Sure I spend days at a time hiking miles and seeing something different every footstep. Camping alone, setting up the tent and camp, marinating meat days ahead to be cooked over a fire followed by too many beers. I've killed plenty of stuff and at 72 hope to keep doing it for another decade at least. Never gets old. Each sunrise and sunset is a blessing to be enjoyed. Up and out an hour before dawn and a few times back to camp hours after dark. For some reason I keep going long after my hunting buds have all moved away. We need more opportunity not less but there is a plethora of it out there if you are motivated. You can literally hunt something every day of the year in Arizona if you have the gumption to do so. If you don't care for some methods then don't participate, but as a sportsman it's every hunters obligation to support it. Don't be silent. First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. —Martin Niemöller

WOW, looks like a perfect shot. Congratulations.

I love to turkey hunt and have been lucky enough to kill a few. Probably my most rewarding hunts were my son's only turkey and calling one in for a friends first turkey when we were down in Mexico.

It wasn't from what I remember from a show I watched on the outdoor channel a few years ago. I was surprised to learn there were Bonefish there too. I think it is more of a novelty but they are there apparently. I have never fished for them and have only ever seen them once when I was in Mag Bay a few years ago. There were small schools swimming in and out of the mangroves while we waited on the dock for our ride back to Loretto.

That's what it's all about.

Why does it need to be an Eastern WT? Probably could have gotten you one a week ago,

While I respect your opinion I steadfastly disagree. Hounds have been bred for thousands of years to do just that. Predator control is just one minuit aspect of it. AZ needs to bring back trapping on public lands. Sure it serves a purpose but the shooter needs to cover a lot of ground. Killing isn't pretty and is just one aspect of these hunts. People participate in them for a lot of personal reasons. Not every treed animal is killed each time.

It is very productive.

Congratulation and yes it can be really tough. They seem to know when it's safe to stroll by and when they are being stalked. I knew a guy who move up to a rural town in CO and worked for a local butcher and he would always post up broadheads and various bullets that were retrieved during the process that had not bee the fatal kill.

Brian did the place on Center and Southern close?

Thanks Harley ,,https://www.brownells.com/howa-barreled-actions/

Love 37A. Heck of a bull.

If you can find them at last light they usually are in the same area in the morning.

I ordered one for my son. Do you use a frame on yours?

Yes in the campfire.

Call Camera Land NY. I am pretty sure they are a dealer and can help you out. 516-217-1000

Noticed on my way back from WCL today the south side of 260 is tore up. What's the scoop Dennis? On a lighter note,,, a chrome and blue Castmaster was getting hammered on every other cast. Jr and I were there at 06:00 and caught a limit with three between 1.5 and 2lbs. Weather came up as we were cleaning fish at 11 and dumped hail and some thunder. Elk were loudly making their presence known for the first hour or more. No wind until almost 10 and fish jumping all day. Drive out from WCL to the 260 had the road covered with ice from the hail, 1"+. Fun day for a couple of Desert Rats.

I know right? I've got 25 here and 9 in Wyoming.

I have a 1500 in .308 and have had zero issues with it.

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.
