We are having a sale on the Rifle Railz for a limited time. The normal retail is $119.99, but you can buy one now for $99.99. I spoke with Amanda today and she has a few in stock that are tactical black. David http://store.coueswhitetail.com/rifle-railz-rifle-rest/

I also have a fairly new Evo Max that I shoot, so that is why I won't try to trade it. David

I wouldn't be interested in the rifle right now. I'm not into the big bore calibers anymore. David

I had two hits for deer show up on my cabelas card this afternoon. I'm hoping they are for both of my boys. Still waiting for the sheep charge to show. David

Since I have a little experience in this area I thought I would add to it. I have been shooting off tripods now for about 4.5 years. I found the best heads to use are the fluid type. The tripod itself should be sturdy in order to hold the weight of the gun. I have used Manfrotto tripods and heads with great success, but now I mostly use the medium Outdoorsmans tripod with the fluid head. Stay away from the pistol grip, they won't hold tight. One concern you had was recoil. When you are shooting your rifle, the gun is still against your shoulder when you shoot. Your body is still going to absorb some of the recoil, but some of it will go down into the legs. All the mount is doing is holding the gun in position and the weight of the gun. I like to point one tripod leg back towards my body if possible. David

mechanical broadheads success and failures
azhuntnut replied to creed_az_88's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
I have never been a fan of expandables due to failure on javelina. This past January I decided to let my son try the Grave Diggers with the on contact tips during his javelina hunt to see if they have improved. His bow is set at around 38 pounds. He made a less than perfect shot on a pig at 10 yards and got a full pass through. Since it was a little back, I gave the pig about an hour and went find it. The only thing that saved us from a long search was one of the huge expandables caught the edge of one of the lungs and spit it open. I have heard they have been using the chisel tipped heads on the big pigs in Texas with great success. If they can put down one of those pigs, then I think they would work on elk. I personally prefer any broadhead that is a cut on contact tip. It takes much less kinetic energy to penetrate than a chisel tip. David -

Were are doing a 4th of July giveaway this month. Two winners will be chosen and each will receive a LOC JAW attachment. The giveaway is being held on our facebook page. Just search Aristotle Engineering when you log in. If you are not a facebook member yet, its very easy to sign up. David

I was probably like you and fought the facebook thing, but realized it was very good for my company and joined. It was very painless, and you can join in on other giveaways from other companies. David

I have had the xtr's on my Ranger and they did great, but when I started to do a lot more dirt roads and street use I switched to the Interco swampers. They were 28 inches tall and had a weight rating for a small truck. I would air tem down to 4-5 pounds. Even after 1000 miles they didn't show any wear. I could run 52 mph on the hardtop. Plus they are dot rated so the cops and forest service couldn't ticket me on the road. I will need a small lift and spacers to make them fit. David

Do you think this is the same bull that I have been hearing about that heads over to my neighborhood during the rut? I haven't had any get that bold yet, but I don't have any tasty flowers to eat. Great pics. David

I put some water out about 10 yards off our back deck up north a month ago. It looks like I have three different bulls coming in so far. One already busted off his main beam. I also had a deer sneak through, but I can't tell if it was a whitey or not. I will update pics as I get them. David
-
Are you trimming your cases, or just loading them out of the box? Which primers are you using? David
-
I was headed out to check some water and found this fire burning. It's about 5 miles north of Hapoy Jack on the edge of Jacks Canyon. 2 trucks of hot shots and a bunch of forest service fire department rolled in already. David
-
They are bringing in a lot of fire fighters on this one. I managed to get a pic of a tanker flying over me and a helicopter carrying water. David

I have shot a lot of coyotes using a 223 on an AR platform. One thing I noticed was when I got out past 350 yards, it would knock them down, but sometimes they would get up and run off. I was using 69 grain black hills ammo. I switched to a 243 wssm magnum upper and started hammering them. I now use an 87 grain vmax pushing 3450 fps. They drop in there tracks at any yardage no matter where you hit them. My buddy uses an ar10 chambered in 243 and he has the same success. David

Thanks again for the 22 win mag. It was nice that I only had to drive a couple miles to get it. I too was hoping he had some leftys. This one is for my boys. David
-
I would like the 883 .22 mag if it is still available. David

I need a quote to trim 2 mesquites and 1 palo brea tree. Plus take a look at the grass and let me know if it can be over seeded or needs new sod. The house is in the north valley near central and loop 101. I would also need a company invoice when the job is complete. I need the quote by Friday. David

I put on one from pse that also has an adjustment to change the angle. It works great. David

I have had some questions about renting this by the month. Since it is getting close to hunting season, I thought somebody might want to use this as there camp for scouting and during there hunt, or a family getaway during the summer. We would like $500 a month. With diesel at 3.75 a gallon, it won't take long to save in fuel costs leaving your trailer up north. Or split the cost with a another family. I have been up there the last few weekends and the weather has been great. PM me with any questions. David

We have a 1 acre lot located in Clear Creek Pines (Happy Jack) that we would like to rent. It is located in the back of the development on a corner lot. The lot has a well, so plenty of water. We parked our fifth wheel on it and used batteries with solar, or generator when we wanted to use the AC. You only need the A/C in July. The lot is heavely treed with pines and lots of shade to park a trailer. Also has a large horse corral where you can also let dogs hang out. I have set up the driveway so you can pull a big trailer through the lot. There is also plenty of space to have friends up with there trailer. All the roads are graded in the development. The lot is less than a half mile from a forest road that leads to some great hunting areas. Fire station is a minute away. This is a great area to hunt, fish, look for sheds, and take the family riding. There are whitetail in the neighborhood. Blue Ridge Lake is only 13 miles away and so is Clint's Wells. Leave your trailer and all of your toys up north, instead of towing back and forth, plus save on storage fees and fuel costs.

We are now offering our second generation LOC JAW in tactical flat black. These will match most AR's on the market. Amanda just got a shipment of them, but she is out of town until mid May if you want to order one from her. If you need one sooner, contact me and I will provide you with the other dealers carrying them. David
-
Good luck.

Just stop in and ask for Levi. He runs the park and the store. If you are hunting that unit, it makes a great base camp. David
