Glad he pulled out good Casey. While he is still loopy, it's a great time to ask him for cash. Give him my best.

I received my 2010 calendar today. Great pictures of some gorgeous AZ country. Not only do I appreciate the composition and crispness of the photographs, but keep wondering to what extremes Doug went to in capturing them! Printed on good quality thick stock. So I won't worry about it falling off the nail like cheaper calendars. Great addition to the store. These would make a great gift. Thanks again Doug in your generosity and help to the website.

Some good points brought up. I know hunters that frequent forums like this don't necessarily represent the majority of hunters. I also understand completely that there are many "meat bucks" taken in every unit. With that said, how many hunters eventually "convert" and start holding out? Especially those that hunt the same unit frequently? Basically "investing" in their own backyard per se. Trail cameras, good one tailchaser, definitely contribute to the way of thinking of those that use them. We can't say we don't hold out for mister big when we got him on camera! Wht_Mtnman, sure we get to see a lot more buck because of forums like these. Have you ever considered how many bucks don't break the airwaves specifically because of the web? I know first hand there are hunters that don't want anything to do with the mags and the web. Maybe the tables turn a little to the other side with that? Hard to say and no way of measuring, but interesting non the less. Thanks for the opinions guys. Again, interesting points made.

Looks like it's going to be a fun evening. Thanks to those that stepped up so far. Hope our table wins some rifles again this year!

I know it caught fire a few years back. Did it go all the way down this time?! Guess Merle's will be getting a little more business!

X2 on that. Mine came with a New York City trigger pull. I had a smith cut the poundage in half. I recommend doing the same for your wife and her pistol.

That buck is so freaking phenomenal! Great coues!

Congrats! The smile and thumbs up say it all. Nice buck.

Amanda, Great write up. Gets the electricity in my brain going that's for sure. I'm sorry you missed that buck. I can only imagine the feeling afterward. We've all been there. X2 on what Casey said, time to upgrade the scope. We all preach "optics optics optics" and it will pay you dividends. As always, thanks for taking the time to show us the world in your eyes again. Yeah, even the flowers...you and your flowers.

I carry this amongst others. Will shoot .38 special if the .357 is too stout. Very comfortable to carry all day long and very easy to conceal. http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/sto...amp;isFirearm=Y You can check out the specs by clicking on the tabs.

Just made it back from the shooting range and made some calls. So far I've got three including Ajohunter, AZbowhntr, and myself. TJ and Peg may make it. We're scouting out some more possibilities. Twenty more days, came up fast this year.

Anyone else? I got a few PM's but nothing solid. TJ may come together with his wife I hope. Come awn guys and gals! We need to represent the CW! Should we all wear our shirts like we did at the Az OE4A banquet?

He was the Chuck Norris of the area. Had to come back this AM just to look at this buck again.

Congrats again Harold. Awesome buck!

Is his tel # a cell or land line? Any idea of his last name? What letter it starts with? His age? x2 on what bobbyo said, I'd try Facebook, MySpace, etc.

Congratulations. Nice set up on the pictures too.

Feliz Cumpleanos! Hope this year turns out as succesful as your previous two!

Happy Birthday! Hope you have a memorable one!

I can attest to and have witnessed this firsthand.

John, Will this other rifle manufacturer chamber your Patriot as well? Your guy told me you stopped the relationship with Savage when they discontinued their action. Guess the new models couldn't support the pressure. Now you have my head rolling trying to guess who the manufacturer may be. Gonna have any Coueswhitetail specials?!

Congrats Martin! Gonna get that main beam fixed? Probably come out pretty good. Cool you guys have pics of him in velvet too.

That's what dreams are made of right there! Has this been a stellar year or what?! Congratulations. Welcome to the forum and we can't wait for the story and...more pics!

Here are some pictures that my friend sent me. He shot this buck on the opener 2010. He will follow with details of the hunt...Congrats again Neil!

Congrats on your first! Nice buck to boot.

Ordered mine. Thanks Doug!
