Gonna have to try these out. Enough CWT'ers say they rock, it's worth buying a pack or two.

I don't even remember when they are typically up - seems like I'm usually trying to get some August salt out "just in case" before we know for sure. I only put myself in for 13B and 12AW Late, and don't have many points, so I'm not counting on anything. Put my boys in for 27 youth, but even if they draw I have no idea where to look. Just something close to home.

Nice truck. Would love to have it for one of my boys (or myself) but I've got enough toyota projects hanging around until they are legal to drive. I agree, it won't take more than a day to sell on Craig's List. Bump for a nice truck I'd rather see go to a CWT family than a mall-rat.

Not trying to hi-jack the thread, but since we're talking about getting the iPads into the field, has anyone tried this topo-map app? http://topomapsapp.com/ipad.html I'm definately going to get one of those card readers that goes right into the iPad - what a great idea. Also, what are you guys using to protect your iPad when hiking? I'm afraid of cracking the screen. Is there a hard case for them that doesn't cost too much?

Yep, I'm busted - I figured we were looking for the deer in the middle of the pic - or what sure looks like a deer bedded in the fall-down. Looks like an ear and eye are plainly visible. Never saw the coyote until I knew it was there.

Dang - what a waste...that is just terrible.

IMO, the Knight Long Range Hunter is at the top of its class. I've seen this gun shoot groups at 350-450 yards that would compare with a lot of center-fire rifles. Good to see that they are still being made. I've got the Knight Long Rang Hunter with the Luepold Ultimate Slam scope. With practice, that combination is very effective.

IMO, Knight built some of the best inline muzzle-loaders ever. Unfortunately, they are out of business now so you can only buy them used. They used a good trigger and Green Mountain barrells. If you can pick one up used, I highly recommend them. Shot a coues last year at around 250 yards with a Knight and it was like shooting a center fire.

Dang, hoghntr, sorry to hear about the medical issues. This is a solid product and I'll be watching it closely. I hope you get the chance to hunt more despite the hip problems.

Dang Chef, I was trying to get several pairs of sore feet back to camp, but I saw that big sticker and wanted to come say hello - sure wish I would have. That's a nice Taco, BTW, and a really nice looking family. Glad you were up there. We camped out neer Sheep Corral off the 117, fished Big Lake, did the Baldy hike, checked some salt licks, played a lot of "corn-hole" and whiffle ball when it wasn't raining. I'm kicking myself for not just stopping and introducing myself. Glad you had a nice time up there, we did too. Vowell, that hike is always so much fun. We saw lots of trees that hat recently been scraped down by a bear up on top - maybe the same bear??? We'll be doing it again in a couple weeks but this time going up 94 and down 95, or vice-versa. Got some ashes to spread and good-byes to be said.

Saw you yesterday after we hiked the Baldy trail. Liked the sticker and a nice taco with matching camper shell. You were going in as we were leaving - blue Ford Expedition. Gave you a wave.

Nice blind. My boys and I have shot lots of critters out of one just like it including several turkeys and a nice velvet coues. One of the best investments I ever made. If the price gets rediculously low, I'd love to a have second. I think I paid around $400 new for mine. I wish they had never put that zipper there in the first place...nobody uses it. IMO, that's the only design flaw with that generation of blind, but if you do what most of us do, just keep it zipped up and do the lift/crawl method, it's one of the best ways to hunt. I watched 12 legal bucks walk inside 16 yards from one of these blinds a couple years ago. Shot number 13. IMO, no better blind on the market.

LOL

Thanks for the replies. I've been in contact with Christian and think he's got a super solid product (range snap) - and priced right. Now, I'm kicking myself for not buying the badlands pack last year when it was resonable. $60-$70 bucks seemed a little high for just a binocular holder. Now $130??? Sorry, not THAT good. Maybe it's time they have them made in Korea - or here's an idea, the US? One pouch, some straps, a couple magnets, we could make those, sorry didn't want to get political on this one. My buddy is a badlands distributor. Maybe he has one of the "pre-$70 magnet" models I can pick up.

Wow, Jed. Nice bulls. Bill flashed me that silhouette shot at the end of our all-stars game today in Eager on his phone. Looks like they're growing really nicely considering the lack of rain so far.

I think I see it, but maybe I'm wrong.

Wow - just wow...

Dang, probably would have bought the single six but just ordered a single ten.

Found this one on Gunbroker. This is the exact same one I have. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=293579240 Not sure if the price is good/bad, but it's pretty rare to find an unfired '89.

Bump for a good rest. Just my opinion, I think this is one of the best rests on the market. Got one just like it on my bow and wouldn't trade it for another.

Wow, incredible buck, and some great taxidermy. That's my kind of art right there.

Wow, super video. Those are some amazing bulls!!! Great job!

+1, best way make a cup of coffee when keeping things light. Heck, I use them at home when I don't want to make whole pot, and I typically hate instant coffee.

Wow, that was cool. Nice job!!!

He had great taste in guns. I would love to see some pix.
