    Kaibab Jr. Doe Hunt

    We have hunted about 15 miles south of Jacob Lake off 67 and walk the edge of the trees and always see plenty of groups of doe's out in the meadows in the late afternoon and early morning. It does get pretty cold so bundle them up with gloves and thick socks and take lots of pictures. Both my son and daughter got a deer the first two days we were there. Just make sure you don't shoot an Elk, they are in there too.

    Brass splitting help!!!!

    Case seperation is common in 223 but it usually is not a factor until the case has been sized and trimmed a half dozen times. What is that a 270? Shoot Mike an email, http://www.bellmtcs.com/store/

    Youth hunters and grades

    Some people just don't do well in school, happens. Not everybody is College Material. I never held that over my kids head. As a matter of fact, if they had a bad day at school I'd say, lets go fishing. I didn't hold grades over their heads. With some kids, the harder you make it for them the more the recede. It's better to be their place of refuge and build their confidence on what they do well because not all of them see the big picture. Now sure we, as adults, know the value of an education but we all know someone who did not go past HS who found their niche then applied themselves and have succeeded. Hug em and love em, because in the flip of a switch you could get a phone call that no parent should ever, ever, ever get.

    .223 reloads gone bad Help

    All of the reloading I did for a 14" barreled Thompson Contender I had was done with 748, Mil Surplus H322 and H335 and CCI Benchrest Primers. The H322 was what I finally settled on and would give me clover leaf sized groups. It also was the cleanest burning powder with complete ignition. The H335 would leave a few unburnt grains of powder in the barrel. I think most of the H322 powder I bought was about $6 a pound at the time. Just curious? Why are you using magnum primers?

    Bored out of my skull....

    That would make a nice tatoo.

    GPS found

    "If" the original owner registered it online you should be able to have Garmin contact them. I keep a business card in the case with mine.

    Snow!

    Good one. I spent some time up in Northern Maine where winter starts in October and goes until May and if it isn't snowing where you're at just get in your car (if you can get it started) and start driving. We would have to scrap the frost off the windows inside our mobile home to see out and 20 below was a warm spell.

    Help with 35A hunt

    Welcome to CWT, I have not hunted 35A so I can't be of much help but here is the link to the hunt unit on the G&F website. I would call G&F and ask to speak with the Game Warden for that unit. He will be able to give you some info on the area and they are usually pretty helpful. I would also get out every chance you get to scout and find a place to camp. With quail season just around the corner that would be a good opportunity to go out and familiarize yourself with the terrain also. Don't be afraid to stop in and talk to other hunters during the early hunt to see what they have to say. http://www.azgfd.gov/h_f/hunting_units_35a.shtml

    Camping in Unit 29

    You're probably safer closer to the border since they will already have water and will be well fed and rested so less likely to stop in your camp.

    Awesome Jaguar video!

    The narrator is Marlin Perkins from the TV show Wild Kingdom which was a weekly show in the 60's.

    Awesome Finished Bird Dog

    Good looking dog Ed. Folks when you figure the initial cost of buying a pup from a proven line and hoping it isn't gun shy then training and feeding it and Vet bills then ending up with a dog of this caliber this is an opportunity that does not come around but every few years.

    Cabelas Big Horn II Tent **PRICE DROP**

    Do you think one person can set it up?
  18. Welcome to CWT. You should be fine out to 500 yards. What kind of accuracy are you getting @ 200 yards in the Marlin? http://www.barnesbullets.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/VOR-TX-trajectory-velocity-energy-REV-8-9-11-P.pdf

    First Hard Horn Buck of the Year

    I kicked up a 4x4 Mulie Sunday morning about 10 miles south of Forest Lakes. Still in velvet. The Aspens were about 50% changed up on the Rim.

    Need Scopes.......

    I have two 3x9's. One is a Bushnell I got in a trade that came as part of a factory rifle combo and I don't think it has been mounted. The other is a Leupold either a VX1 or a Rifleman I have had on and off a few rifles over the last five or six years. It has a few scratches but is a solid scope. If you would like to borrow them for your hunts PM me your address and I'll send them your way. They are both 1" tubes and have good glass.

    Yeti Coolers - Best Price?

    Everywhere I have seen them they are all the same price for any given size. I'd like to get a 105qt if anyone know of a better place to buy one that the usual places I'm all ears.
