    spring javi archery OTC question?

    I am in the same boat as you. Turkey BP and Javi up in the air. It looks like the early archery hunt is now draw only except for the NE units. With 1200 tags I'm guessing I can buy a leftover pretty easy though. Hunt #5092 is Unit 33 and 37B which is close to you.

    Nikon Monarch 5s

    I'm not sure about the 16's or 20's, but I have the Monarch5 12x42 and prefer them side by side with my buddies ViperHD 15x50. I also have not had to put their 25yr warranty to the test. A used set of Kaibabs might be the better bet. http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-7583-NIKON-Monarch5-Binoculars/dp/B00E3URWEA/ref=sr_1_6?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1412351093&sr=1-6&keywords=nikon+monarch5 http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-7583-NIKON-Monarch5-Binoculars/dp/B00E3URWEA/ref=sr_1_6?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1412351093&sr=1-6&keywords=nikon+monarch5

    WTB $200-$250 Used Binos

    You could buy these for $90, same warranty as Vortex, and start saving up for a pair of high-end binos. http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/52189-alpen-pro-10x42-model-385-new-in-box-100/?fromsearch=1

    hunt savings

    The last time I saw that many ones the girl in front of me in line at the bank in high heels was making a deposit.
  7. Was the gun owned and set-up by the hunter, or was it owned by AZGP?

  13. I've gotten by fine with my Vortex bino adapter ($25) and don't really get out enough to warrant purchasing an Outdoorsman ($60). I'm taking a friend out on his first coues hunt and helping outfit him with gear without breaking the bank. The last thing I want to do is turn someone off by telling them they need top of the line everything and its going to cost them $$$ to be a successful hunter. I ran across this Plain-Jane bino adapter on eBay. I liked the low profile so I took the risk and bought a two pack since I was paying for shipping. The pic made it look like there was a tall and short one. Turns out they are the same size. PayPal purchase of ($17.88) and exactly one week later these show up at my door. Pretty simple bent bracket with two 1/4-20 holes for mounting and a 1/4-20 stud with knurled knob. It installed easy on my Nikon Monarch and was really low profile. If using a bino strap I don't see any reason to take this adapter off. I was surprised it also fit with my binos in my Badlands Bino Case. I am in no way endorsing a made in China product over USA, but thought this might be a good option for those on a budget or looking for a backup in their pack. Weight: Vortex: 2.9 oz China: 2.3 oz Height: 4.0 in China: 2.5 in I will be selling these for $25 in the classified section if anyone is interested. (kidding)

    Alpen PRO 10x42 (Model 385) New in Box $100

    alright, looks like these are going on ebay
  16. What binos are you looking for? High-end binos with money on your end, or you looking for an even trade?

    Tessa's first hunt

    Great story and that picture is priceless. Same thing my Dad and Brother did to me with my first big game kill. War Paint!

    Savage BMAG 17WSM with Ammo

    Does this have a magazine? How many rounds does it hold?

    2002 Toyota Tacoma (Sold)

    Great truck. I have the same one except mine has 187k on it. You forgot to mention the locking rear differential which really gives it some off road capability.

    Glad I didn't take my bow...

    That's the way it always happens. Nice buck

    Lost 12 X 50 Swarovisions?

    In this case the add is incredibly fishy and subject to criticism. First add lists them for sale at $1000 then later relists them for $1500. The number listed is from Dallas and the guy does not answer (had to investigate myself). Some of us here can't afford to buy new and when we sell we price based on fair market price. There might be some negotiating after the fact, but I don't think people are posting on this site to make money.

    Lost 12 X 50 Swarovisions?

    Is there a such thing as Swarovski knock-offs? Maybe these are fake???
