If your going have a long hike its best to make worth your while. And that looks like a worth while trip I was just out on a late bull hunt (nov26-2) and i ll tell you every down tree branch looks like a shed even more with a litte dusting of snow.lol

+1 If you are planning on a 700y shot and you have a 20x scope, I can guarantee a once in a lifetime buck trys to sneek out of the canyon your in at 100y and its difficult to try to find hin in the scope/or turn down the zoom....ask me how I know.

Well done. You've got to be dam proud to put a deer cape in the back seat of your truck.

Kids are fun to hunt with. If their into it there is a spark in their eyes that can be seen only when hunting or talking about hunting I miss my brother.

Also the buck to acre ratio is lower here. It could be too the sign your finding is from does.assuming there are little to no bucks in the area now its not such a bad thing. If there's does using the area come rut time them sneaky sob's will show up out of no where.

Is that a turd in mid drop in the last pic??

You are very welcome. But it was my pleasure to serve this nation. I hope all veterans have a nice day. I normaly go to redlobster on verteran day and pay for the meal of the first veteran hat I see. Today will be no diferant.

Slate and box calls are the easyest to make realistic sounds with little practice. As for locater calls I like a crow call in the dark(night or morning) Turkeys are pray to every thing that eats meat. Fox owl coytoe crow calls will get them to shock gobble to warn others. They are more likly to do so when they are roosted as it gives there position away but they feel safe in a tree. And they fly down hill amd walk up hill.

I've never hunted the unit either but if it were me I would scout near the east centeral part of the unit.

http://www.javelinahunter.com/ This website has a lot of general javelina hits and tips. Make sure you look through all the tabs on the left hand side. I'm not sure if you have ever hunted javelina before but for me I live to hunt. Just about any thing. Dove quail turkey deer elk. I've always taken my big game hunts (deer and elk) extreamly serious. I. Very much enjoy them but when it comes to javelina its always been differant. I always have more fun. It may be that my dads always with me cause he does not hunt deer or that i feel less presure to make a kill. I can never quite put my finger on it. But I love to hunt javelinas, not any more or less than any thing else, its just differant. I have been rained on and had tag soup on more javelina hunts than any other hunt. I too drew a ham hunt this year it will be my first time trying with just a bow.

Congras that a nice lookin deer Its a 2x2. Its a huge 2x2 at that.

Is this experience speaking woefully first-hand? It sure is. I was smart enough to skip that trip. If I remember correctly I when elsewhere and hit my limit of dove.

Lol

What is it leaking.

I've been running these for a year now. I realy like them. Mine are 315/75r16.

I seen they had the 3d shoot going on. But I. Just did the upper and lower hill course.

I was thinking about heading out there sunday.

He's there keep after him

if any one wants to join me that would be fun. ive never met anyone from cwt.com before.

I hope my wife does not see this. She's been bugging me to get back up there the last few weeks. Nice looking photos

I'm calling for a dna test. That buck is part stag!!!

Nice job. That a tough one you have there. I have hunted through colds and flus but when a fever is involved I turn sissy and fast.

I used to use 7 1/2 with a full choke. But the last 2 years I've been using 6 high brass with a full. My kill have gone up but I seldom if ever get a shot closer than 30y on desert gambles. I also shoot them on the ground when ever posible.

Lol I can't tell if that last post is serious or not. Yah its fenced its got 4 strand barbed wire all the way around it. And a few cwt "stuck" inside.

I was shooting right next to a block wall. I think it was just the rest coming down but echoing from a few feet away. I can't wait to chase some deer around the desert.
