    2008 Super Duty

    I had a lemon 2008 F-250 I got it up to 40,000 miles in 10 months at work and it was in the shop for about 2 months. It was in for radiator 3 times, heads once, radiator fan once, Electrical short twice and some other minor things. I gave it back to Ford and got a new one exactly the same and I have 10,000 miles on it without one problem. Go figure. I work in agriculture so I travel field roads all of the time and I get 11 1/2 miles per gallon honestly.

    Taxidermist Help

    The taxidermist will skin it for you. Just keep it frozen until you take it to the taxidermist and they will do the rest. Congrats to your boy!

    Got my last Coues deer back!

    It is the wall in my office @ home. The red walls are in the living room.
  5. I finally got my coues from last year and it turned out well. This is my first animal with a full sneak and it looks pretty cool I think. Clay @ Mogollon Taxidermy did it.

    Traveling Gear bag

    I have the Badlands Terra Glide and I love it. It has a seperate bottom for a bow or boots and a big compartment for clothes. It also has many different small compartments for various things. It is built extremly well and has wheels. It is perfect for all travel.

    Next Years Buck

    I guess I should just stick with the carp. Even I can identify a carp when I see one. I don't care what the heck it is I would put the smack down on him

    Next Years Buck

    Man am I going crazy or is that an eastern. His hair color, length and nose features sure do look like my Kansas whitetail on the wall. I may be totally wrong too, just asking.

    Who gives a hoot how much it was. They are still self guided and I am sure the guy worked hard for it.

    Man 6 bucks over 110 now that is impressive. I know a lot of the guides and have hunted there for about 7 years and the people up there are really good people. It is a different way of life and once you get use to it you appreciate it. Lets see some pics of these bucks.

    December tag gripe

    We were in 33 on opening weekend with a rifle and killed a 109 4/8" buck and never saw another soul where we hunted. I am a bowhunter as well and hope they keep both hunts the same. The rifle and bowhunter each have a right to any animal out there. Who ever finds the buck and bust his or her tail to get it first should be congratulated.

    The Rut

    The buck we killed opening day in 33 was already ruttin up a doe. She walked by him and he lipped curled and the chase was on. He was definetly getting into the rut. I was wondering if anyone else has seen anything up north or down south?

    Opening day success

    Who cares if it is luck or not nice buck!
  22. Well, my good huntin buddy Brian Johnson got the buck of a life time on opening day. We had glassed in a different area opening morning to find a ton of does but no good bucks. We decided to go to a place we scouted earlier in Nov. After about 15 minutes of glassing I picked up a deer about a mile away. He was a small buck about 80" and Brian and I watched him for a minute until he went over the ridge. We split up to each glass some different country. About 20 minutes had passed when I looked back to where the buck had gone over the ridge. There were three bucks standing on top of the ridge now. One of them stood out like a sore thumb. I turned the spotting scope up on him an immediately new he was a shooter. I got Brian back over to take a look and like always happens to me he went over the ridge as Brian walked up. I assured him he was a shooter and we were off to try and get him. It took about 4 hours to stalk up to a ridge where we thought we could see him. When we got up there Brian spotted the two point that was with him at 215 yards. Brian got all set up to wait for the big buck. As soon as he got set up a doe walked out and right behind her sniffin was the big boy. I told Brian there he is kill him please! He laid the smack down on that buck @ 215 yards. He ran 10 yards and was done. It was freakin awesome. Congrats to Brian. We packed him out and were done right before dark. The buck grossed 109 2/8" and has double matching eye guards, One eye guard has another 1" kicker off the back. Enjoy the pics. I had to get one next to the CWT sticker on my truck before we left.

    That Ram is in 41W. If you look at one of his back legs it looks like he just jumped out of the catchment. I got it on one of my trail cameras a few years ago.
