    NM Antelope updated story

    To be fair the pants are Kuiu, so there is that. Thanks everyone, It's still nice to share a pic or two, I just cant do other forms of social media much. I did learn to like everyone's comments though so maybe I am cut out for this social media hunting.

    Any Cameras Out There?

    You aint a kidding. I used cameras as an excuse to go in the woods every couple of weeks. I haven't been once this summer. Partly because all I have going on, but partly because I don't have any cameras up. Its not worth it to me to have AZGFD looking at me, so I elected to not use them at all.

    Wife is gone.

    I'm sure sorry to hear, I've been married to the greatest women of my life for 22 years and your post reminded me to never take her or our great friendship lightly. I'll be thinking of you and wish you the best moving forward.

    10mm??

    I carry a G20x now in AK I like having 20 rounds. I'm sure I would go 10mm if it was solely for protection purposes but I already have a few 9mm so no need to re invent the wheel. I like this article. Not peer reviewed but good info. https://sportingclassicsdaily.com/defense-against-bears-with-pistols-97-success-rate-37-incidents-by-caliber/

    December late pictures

    Quality of hunt was down but I don't think the quality of deer was. I knew of and know of a couple real good bucks alive that never showed up. Or at least I never heard of anyone finding them. So who knows??

    Perfect Coues Rifle

    I would build a 25 CM (I just had a 25SST built from Todd South that is about perfect except it maybe too much for ONLY Coues) You could get away with less if Coues was your only game. MY 25SST should hammer elk out to 800+ right now it has only killed a bull at just under 400 yards. I have a 25CM that has killed lots of Coues but it isn't a pack gun. So I would go with the 25CM caliber but built how I had my 25 SST built. Defiance AnTI action I love my proof barrel but I've heard they have had some recent issues with QC. 1:7.5 20-22" with suppresor. 135 Berger or 131 blackjack, I've been extremely happy with the performance on game. I really like my AG alpine hunter stock Triggertech Tangent Theta 315m Lots of Lances influence on the above build. I chose them for overall light weight but not compromising long range if necessary. I also like the 25 calibers because they have some of the best BC bullets available and not everyone is shooting them. Can't resist to post critters again. My 25 CM My 25sst
  19. There are many more "comfortable" or luxurious options than a Pioneer but for true hunting off road capabilites, reliability etc...nothing I've seen beats the Pioneer. All of my polaris or can am friends make sure they run their machines in low and 4 wheel drive so they don't burn there belts up on the steeper drives. Almost all have had broken axles of some sort also. I manually put mine in 1st or 2nd gear and all but the toughest hills I can still climb easy in 2 wheel drive. The bed and doors rattles a little bit but I added some shrink tubing and that helped the latches keep from rattling. Bump for a sweet rig.

    Guide Recommendation

    You should be able to find the best guides in the business, those late hunts are better than the early rifle bull elk tag in 36a.

    Solo hunt rewards

    Big ol frame on that buck! Sweet character. Thanks for telling the story. Some of my favorite hunts are when I was hunting by myself. Great job

    School me on getting suppressors

    We used tennis balls when I was a kid. On a 22 rifle. Worked pretty good

    Bull up close

    Thats why I don't share too much on instagram and facebook, (last year or two) but this site is still "home" for me and one of the few places I like to share and support.
