    Looking to buy some .22LR for Xmas ...

    My wife and her sisters just made 270 tamales yesterday. And yes, they were all born and raised in Sonora Mexico so they know what they're doing I can't wait for Christmas Eve. It's no wonder I have a hard time losing weight.

    Dream Hunt of A Lifetime

    Thank you for taking the time to share your pictures and story with us in such great detail. I enjoyed it and felt like I was right there with you on the hunt. Absolutely amazing story and buck. Congratulations.
  5. I saw two bucks sparring and chasing a doe in the Dripping Springs area on December 4th.
  6. That is an unbelievable deal on the swaros. Somebody will jump on those quick.

    Needle in Paradise

    Excellent write up and awesome story. Looking forward to more pictures and the story of Cody's buck. I don't know how you guys pass up bucks waiting for a giant. I see a little forky and I can't help myself. Congratulations!

    Which 10x's

    I bought the Zeiss Conquest HD 10x42 a few months ago and love them. You can find them new for around $900 if you shop around a little. I haven't compared them to the others you mentioned but they definitely are top of the line glass. Zeiss has also stepped up their warranty. The outdoorsman stud works on them too.

    Bear Strike for sale

    No problem. Glad I could help. Jordan was with me when I got my buck yesterday and he's super stoked to start hunting.

    Optics?????

    This is very well said and mirrors my experience exactly. I have been using Nikon Monarch 12x42 for the last 8 years or so. I always tried to justify that they were good enough. They were your typical $350 binos, not bad, but not great either. For many years I justified that they were good enough, even though secretly I always wanted to upgrade. Well, I decided that I was going to upgrade to one of the big three. I went with the new Zeiss Conquest HD 10x42. My experience was exactly the same as yours. They were clearer and much more crisp. It may not make sense, but the picture through the glass just looked more "real." With my old Nikons I could only glass for an hour at most before I had to take a break. With my Zeiss I couldn't stop glassing all day. There was zero strain and it didn't feel like a chore to be looking through them all day. The old cliche is true.....My only regret is that I didn't upgrade sooner.

    Chasing a specific buck.

    That was a great video. Very well done. And props to you on sitting about 100 hours more than I can handle. I'm sure your hard work and persistence will pay off.

    36B Right Now

    If you ever wondered what thread is worse than a "huge buck down, pictures coming" thread, this is it. We need to know ASAP if you nailed him, and then ASAP after that we need pics. By the way, the ultimate way to tempt Murphy is to post a thread like this. I'm way too superstitious myself.
  19. Have you searched for any Toyota specific forums? 9 times out of 10 you can find the answer from someone else having the same problem and posting about it. A lot of times it's something that you can fix yourself and save some $. Google and YouTube have saved me a good chunk of change. Good luck.

    Stolen F250

    Don't waste your time or money. I thought it was pretty lame. 90% of the action in the movie was in the trailer. This is a Redbox movie.

    Family Antelope Taste Test Reviews

    I've always wondered about this because I've had antelope meat only once and it was horrible. It was from Wyoming. My dad shot it and did all of his own work. I know that he always gets the skin off right away and takes good care of his game. I'll definitely have to give it another try whenever I get the opportunity.

Plus, I believe you would save on the tax and I've heard Doug at cameraland is awesome to do business with. These are the perfect binos for what you said you needed them for.
