    Tony: don't break you arm like that other old guy! I am not sure they limit the 20% draw to 1-2. I think they look at all five so you better not put down numbers that you would not be happy with.

    Hunting with the aid of a Vehicle

    OK my story from the other end For the last two seasons, we have had run-ins with this large camp. Half of the guys in camp just drive around all day looking for deer. One in particular has an open jeep and constantly just drives around. We were glassing from a high ridge when these 2 guys and 2 little kids drive down this 2-track road. They looked right at us apparently not seeing us, then drove on down the road. They pulled off and obviously glassed up something. He ended up crawling up in the back of his truck, resting off the top of the cab of his truck and emptied two different rifles (> 800 yard shots) and then proceeded to follow up the shots. Several minutes later we watched this huge deer hobble off with one leg shot up with the hunter and his partner in pursuit. We watched as the deer eluded the hunters with an abrupt right angle turn at the top of the ridge. Some others from the camp showed up at the guys truck along with the wildlife manager. The shooter and his partner eventually got back to the truck and then lied through their teeth about shooting out of the back of the truck -- they must have known it was wrong. The guy ended up pleading guilty after 3 court appearances and almost a year of elapsed time when he found out he would not lose his license or hunting privileges for such a minor offense -- a few hundreds dollars penalty, well plus all his lawyer fees. I was more incensed about him shooting over 800 yards and wounding that deer, but it was clear that he was certainly shooting from a vehicle. Do any of you think that was OK as his buddies back at the truck had argued with the WM?

    270 elk load

    Not that I have had lots of opportunities, but 150 grain Nosler Partitions have worked well for me. The shots were all quite close, though.

    Well two tags were determined last night at the SCI banquet: 2 governor's tags, javelina and WT. The Javelina went for $700 and the WT went for $15K.

    Patience Grasshopper! That is quite a ways off of sweltering temps and drenching humidity -- I hate this time of year!

    Big Lake Cell Service?

    I have ATT and the only place I barely get service is outside the vehicle at the corner just down the road from the dump station. Otherwise it is back to the top of the mountain at the lookout just before you head down on the paved road back to Eagar.

    Big Lake

    We fished Big Lake on Tuesday and again was really slow and this time with smallish fish. Nelson Reservoir was really good with small fish. With Pratt, take two extra spare tires!

    That's such a relief! Sorry Simon! I was 28 years old before I found the real name of Tempe Tech was ASU and not ASUsucks!

    WOW

    We have been following the softball playoffs ... I have been rooting for .... er ... a ... can I say it ... ASU! Is there hope for me? Both Cali and ASU are going to have trouble with OK and Bama, though; but we can hope for the best. U of A sure stunk it up this year in softball. Maybe my wife can finally get some infield seats?
