    Copper Sticker

    This BS Sticker program doesn't care if you are using one to get in backcountry to hunt or teaching your kids to ride a motorcycle. You will all pay. I do not condone people hunting off of Quads but it is normally not an issue for me because they are on the roads and I hike far enough that if anything I just hear them. I do ride with my kids for recreation and I use them to ride into roads my truck can't during the seasons to start my hiking. They have also helped in getting a couple Bull elk. I would love to have horses but the problem is where to put them and affording the Purina Horse Chow. If I had a lot of money I probably wouldn't be as concerned with the sticker.
  2. The G&F plans to implement the new COPPER Sticker program to extort more money from the working man. Everyone with an OHV will have to purchase one every year just to ride on public lands. Just think about the families with kids who like to ride and what they will have to pay. I am sure the cost will be low at first until they have it established and then they too will go up dramatically. Did I mention that right now they are looking for your input so I encourage you to voice your opinions whether you agree with it or not. The info is on the G&F Website. I thought I might get blackballed from drawing future tags but I never draw crap anyhow so I sent them my 2 cents.

    What's Scarier?

    I have been very close to 2 lions and while they scared the crap out of me at the time, I don't concern myself nearly as much with them as I do the illegals.

    223 is awesome for pigs. I have shot them before with a 30. One with a 30-30 and the other with an 7.62x39 and the damage wasn't bad. You don't want to ruin any of that meat. Take along ear plugs to shove up your nose while your gutting.

    2007 tag fees

    Just wait until the g&F implements the new COPPER Sticker program to extort more money from the working man. Everyone with an OHV will have to pruchase one every year just to ride on public lands. Just think about the families with kids who like to ride and what they will have to pay. I am sure the cost will be low at first until they have it established and then they too will go up dramatically. Did I mention that right now they are looking for your input so I encourage you to voice your opinions.

    Spring Draw

    I drew 33, 37b for archery pig. All I got out of the Turkey draw was a sore butt again. Been putting in for 20+ years and I drew 1 tag a few years back. I guess I'll have to wait another 17 years for my time to come around again. I hope I am still alive No Buffalo either.

    LONG RANGE SHOTS

    487 at a coues a few years back. Last years 103 incher was at 468 and took one shot through both shoulders with a 300WM. The key is to set up correctly, practice a lot, and know your limitations. Most shots have been closer though.

    Developing Loads

    Try a 165 nosler bt, neck size, set your bullet as far out as you can without touching the lands, the magazine will probably dictate the max length, weigh every charge to be consistent. Glass bed your stock if it hasn't been already. Lighten up your trigger also if it is a factory one. Good luck I use H4831 in mine and it shoots 1/2" groups at 100 yds. I have also notice when working up loads that the higher the charge in my rifle, the tighter the group. This held true in my fathers rifle also.

    Okay.. it can stop raining

    I guess somebody thought their truck would make it through the water this weekend. I was driving through Alpine and saw a tow truck dragging a water logged pickup.

    Strip Super Raffle Buck

    I am with Noel on this one. The auction tag will let a you break the one deer per year rule. Letting someone potentially shoot two deer in a year just because they have a lot of cash is wrong. Just another small part of the moral degradation of our society. I also fully support the raffles and don't get me started on the fee increases due to funds mismanagement.

    Tags?

    Has anyone recieved any tags from NM. I was charged for an elk tag but I have yet to recieve it.

    What would you do??

    I certainly do not agree with people leaving stands up(yes its happened to me), but I sure hate to see people tear up other peoples stuff. I say report them to the authorities. The vandalism in today's society is extreme and if we start dividing ourselves as hunters by encouraging this then we become weaker as a group. The guy who's stuff was torn up this time may be the guy pissed off and tearing up yours or my stuff next time.

    I own the map and its okay but most of the info is just taken from other maps. Also it isn't easy trying to find the places as the symbols they use are so big they cover up a good sized piece of forest. I think I bought mine from Bear Basin Archery in Flag.

    Unit 33

    I have seen them also but its been a few years back. I don't think they were Goulds as they were not that colorful.
  22. Has anyone tried the hearing aids for hunting that are on the market these days. I would sure like to hear some opinions and recommendations if anyone has one to share.

    Trailcam Suggestion

    I have bought 3 Moultries from Wally World and 1 works great. The second one was extremeley slow to trigger and took washed out pics. I took it back and just tried the 3rd one. It is extremely slow to trigger just like the 2nd but it does take pics. i am taking it apart as I write to see if I can improve it cause if I can walk up within 4 ft before it goes off then it is worthless to me. There may be a reason wmart doesn't sell them anymore. Good luck with whatever you buy.
