    Swarovski Optik SLC 15x56 WB with Extras!! NEW

    My pops was on the market for these binos and as soon as I saw this post from Darin, (vision outfitters) I sent him a pm and he responded quickly, my dad got to meet him in person and had great things to say bout him. Darin pulls a very good honest business and the end result was my dad got a great brand new pair of binos in original packing and Darin is knowledgeable about all warranties covered by the line of binos he sells, if you are lookin for a new pair of binos and a single person to talk to when you have binos trouble, Darin is the guy to go to, I will put my word on it!

    Does Hunting Harvest Affect Horn and Antler Size?

    Not a reasonable find for research, less than 2 percent decline , that means a 400 inch bull 108 years ago would be a 392 inch bull today, not enough size difference to be a significant finding

    Saving some Quail

    WTB swaro 15x56

    My pops is on the market for a used pair of swaro 15's. I recall alot of them go for sale before tax season begins. If you're selling yours keep me in mind or contact me, thanks!
  9. Pops has a Zeiss conquest 15x45, used for about 6 years. Can't find any used ones for sale to start an estimated price range. I see they are roughly 900 new. Say the binos are 100% refurburished and has transferrable lifetime warranty, would you guess $500 value?

    Brian Terry's memorial

    Let me know where it is too, I met Brian and worked out with him here in Sierra Vista, he was a very nice guy that drove a sweet corvette. I believe they have a memorial for him at the gym as well, Summit Fitness.

    Hybrid's update!

    This is what you do....wait til there's a hybrid buck with a coues tail, the buck should score in the 130 s when he's 3 or 4 yrs old! Awesome stuff! I worked as a biologist and I know you got more info on hybrids than most state game and fish does!
  17. DONE! I need this kiababs so I sent in my best pictures of big bucks from SOUTHERN Arizona october hunts!
  18. did you use the food scale at a grocery store? ha The great thing about this head is that even if it does not function correctly you will get some cutting done, unlike some other mechanicals out there. Every broadhead has it pros and cons, and this one has it's pro where it still cuts if it malfuctions and it's con is that it takes about 3lb of force to keep blade open.

    How Rare Is This!!! Never dreamed I'd get one!

    Awesome, I am lucky enough to see only 1 fully albino javi in Arizona, he was certainly a juvenile about 10 months old or so and we didnt want to shoot him and hoped to find him as he got bigger but he dissapeared! Bet he was easy to spot for the coyotes! Congrats on once of a lifetime kill!
  20. Passed you on I 10 right before vail, you got a sticker that says any tag any time

    366 yard shot on a bobcat

    Am I Just Being a Hard A _ _???

    This is funny, 99% of the time I would say yes but the weird does happen. My dad shot a buck at 250 yds with 180 grn from 300 wsm, bullet landed about 2 inch behind the shoulder and 5 inch below the spine, the buck rolled down the mtn and layer flat. After 10 minutes of watching him we confirmed he was dead. The buck got up shook his head and walked downhill! We were able to kill hil. Upon opening him up, the shot did no damage to his lungs, very weird, we figured maybe he was breathing out when the bullet hit him? Making him miss the lungs? It was purely a flesh wound at that point. It just depends sometimes, sometimes a hunter scouts very hard and gives a buck a haircut on a shot and sometimes a hunter shoots a buck in the gut and doesn't track the buck down. Ur a hard a$$ if someone worked hard and tracked a buck for days, ur not a hard a$$ when someone shoots a buck in the gut and does not track them down
  24. just tough luck- nothing in the rules/regulations about this type of situation other than whoever put the last bullet in the deer belongs to the person- sucks to hear that
