Glad to see things went well.

Depending on what deer tag we drew I might be around the Marley ranch too…will be in touch if so.

Seconds.

Burgers n dogs at the lake yesterday…patriotic Cracker Barrel today. Griliing some sort of meat with the family tomorrow…enjoyed local fireworks near Ft Campbell tonight.

Tell me more about this Tennessee bourbon…

Campsite view for the week. Watching whitetails wading in the edge of the water. I think I’ve seen more deer off the side of the road in 2 days than I see all season in AZ. My CWT handle is a clue of at least the state…LoL

TN is correct…by a lake. And the dog is very happy although she doesn’t like humidity. Not Percy Priest though. Woods Reservoir on Arnold AFB.

I know exactly what you’re after but not selling mine. Good luck! 😁

Thanks for sharing this write-up. I’ll take a good look when I get home and have time to digest it better

New recipe for me. Turned out great on the Traeger. Accidentally went to about 150 internal temp but it was a nice medium throughout. First time trying a compound butter recipe but won’t be the last. https://recipesworthrepeating.com/smoked-elk-roast/

Can you start a separate thread with explanation? I’ve read a lot about it but so far your explanation here has made more sense than articles I’ve read.

Push the button and walk out the door for the holiday weekend…

Already can’t hunt with them in CO and some other states.

I can see how knowing a deadline helps…and if my card got hacked I’d be more worried about getting it replaced and taking care of all the monthly autopays that are setup on it. I’d like to think I wouldn’t forget to update AZGFD but I might.

I’m still not that skinny. LoL

I figured there would already be chatter on here about the new federal holiday Biden just signed into law. We just got notified that our offices will be closed tomorrow, but I have so much going on with my projects it will be just another Friday for me. Maybe I can get caught up on some things if they cancel all the meetings that should have been emails. LoL

Hey I appreciate that. And likewise.

How much meat did each of you end up bringing home?

Similar coyote story I was sitting a tank and had a doe and fawns drinking. Coyote came right in to drink and didn’t pay attention to the antelope and they seemed to ignore him too. Took a shot at the coyote but arrow hit a strap on the blind and missed.

During my 19a hunt a few years ago I met a hunter wearing a “be the decoy hat” with a tan shirt. He ended up tagging out...sitting water and the buck was out of range. He waited until it walked behind the tank berm then left the blind with the hat on and slowly walked right past does into range of the buck. Sometimes decoys work and sometimes they don’t.

Had an email this morning that I had PM from an unknown person with several others on the thread “Let’s go hunting” - no PM though guess it had already been reported and nuked. Scammers getting creative.

I got added to a PM thread overnight apparently based on email I received...but no PM in my inbox so hopefully already banned.

I agree on all counts. Is any day of remembrance/observance/celebration given its due reverence and recognition anymore?

Price and location?

Sorry couldn’t resist...to each his own and thanks Curtis for sharing the good deal.
