Adam, Go poke around on BladeForums.com

Don't follow any sports at all.

Thick is right, that is some beautiful country. Congrats on the great bull.

Make sure you identify which of the two before you shoot as I have seen both in some of the same areas. I'd hate for you to shoot a young Mule Deer mistaking it for a small racked WT. If you can hunt after the weekend there will be less people out there.

He will be Hillary's running mate.

I had just come out of an old abandon Military building after showing a young kid how to quarter up a Caribou and was standing on the gravel runway when one walked passed up at about 30 yards. Suprised the heck out of me and it was all alone too. I thought it would have been bigger. I didn't get a chance to eat any but the amount of different plants on the tundra is amazing so I imagine they have a varied diet and a lot of choices to eat. There were some willows and bushes but lots of red berries and blue berries, lichen, grasses etc.

+1. Good luck on the hunt.

G&F Weekly Report will be posted tomorrow. WC always seems to be on. I have had good luck with mealworms under a bobber or Power Eggs about 30" off the bottom using PLINE Flourclear 4# Test.

Can it shoot +P rounds?

Congrats, that's a nice one.

Never hunted over a dog but I try to get out every year. They are fun to hunt except when they sit tight and won't flush. I doubt I'll be out opening day but I will go out on Saturday. I don't have any special spots and usually try to hunt near water. Best I ever did was hunting Scalies near Sunazona back in the early 80's. I got a limit early and I think I only missed one bird after I figured them out.

Did you use peroxide in the boil?

And get rid of the hunt on the 24th and move it back to the 31st.

Run Forrest Run. LOL

A guy posted some pics or video of him doing some "scouting" on FB a few days ago but took it down after about 10 minutes when he realized it may have been illegal but not before some screenshots were taken and reported to G&F. It "may" have been related to this incident.

IBTL.

Nice bull. How far did you have to pack it out and how many trips did it take?

Sportsmans Warehouse had just the frame with the belt on sale yesterday for $39

Give Nate a call at Strictly Diesel. https://www.strictlydiesel.com/default.aspx I don't know anything about the 6.0 but I've had my 7.3 since Feb of 2000 and Nate has been around for a long time and I highly recommend him. You can also (should) join http://www.azpsg.com/forum.php Sunrise Ford in SoCAL sells parts a lot less than you will get them anywhere else. http://www.dieselsite.com/hosesbootsandclamps.aspx

FLAGscanner has received word of an Officer involved shooting near Blue Ridge.

Officer has shot the man “multiple times” UPDATE 3: Officer saying the truck is stolen and that the subject is wanted. UPDATE 4: Dispatch confirming the the subject is wanted out of Yavapai County for a Felony Parole Violation and is an escape risk.

I normally don't come into this part of the forum as I have 14 BP's and know that the chances of getting drawn are slim to none and don't want to get myself all worked up. LOL I just read this whole thread from begining to end. Glad to see it all come together for you.

WOW, Very Nice.

Congrats in order for that for sure.
