Thanks. I'll PM some starting points I know in 34A...

Man I was hoping you'd updated with the story! Awesome bull...I'm really happy for you Casey. Good luck with your dad's hunt too!

+10 always amazed at how tough my little girl is.

First HUGE CONGRATS! Daughters are awesome...obviously different, but still awesome. First and foremost be there for her and let her know you love her and she means the world to you. Lots of girls end up attracted to the wrong kind of guy when they get older because they're looking for that. Here's a really good book that I read from time to time as a reminder. Strong Fathers Strong Daughters http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0345499395/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1410902914&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40 I'm due to read it again actually. And above all, enjoy no matter what. She might be a girly girl and not into hunting or fishing, but find some other activities she likes that you can share. And keep inviting her along...get ready to buy some pink camo rifles!

Was just about to post this myself...got a birthday coming up so hopefully my wife and kids got the hint.

Welcome! You'll find a lot of bad spellers here and only a couple of grammar police. And as 6ANut says, lots of good folks here.

Congrats on a great hunt and awesome memories. Nice write-up and very nice bull!

You'll have coues bedding next to it soon...

Congrats Casey on a very special bull! Was very happy to see this pic on the book of faces last night..can't wait for more pics and the story!

Awesome bull...congrats!

Right next to a road too...can't beat that! Congrats!

Thanks for the bump...love this video and the song too. Hunting and football...This truly is my favorite time of year!

Nice bull on any hunt, but especially limited opportunity! Awesome!

Heck even the book of faces is missing pics...I've only seen video of bulls being passed, pics of hunters, and a couple of selfies.

what he said.

Sorry for your loss Casey. We buried my last living grandparent this weekend, so I'm right there with you. Make the most of your elk hunt in his memory...

Got mine today too. Even comfier than my old pair!

Thanks! I might take you up on this for some trips this fall.

I'm guessing this is it. http://tucson.backpage.com/SportsEquipForSale/225-deer-hunters-bolt-action-30-06-scoped-and-sling/29509610

Location? I'm always looking for decent firewood in Tucson...

Agree...I have these and have been very pleased.

SE Tucson too

Right there with you...vehicles everywhere we went southeast of town on opening morning. Haven't been out since.

I think they were in CanadA LoL

Well more like 2 things I already knew, but needed to be reminded. 1. I may have grown up hunting from treestands, but I really don't like to sit still and quiet for a long time anymore. Especially in a hot blind with no coues cooperation. 2. Just like fishing, if you want to shoot doves don't take a kid dove hunting. Had a blast and shot a lot of cans and explored the desert, but no birds were harmed. Wouldn't have that one any other way though...he wants to go again.
