Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just sayin'

X2 Better start RUNNING after them yotes from here on out. Last thing we need is for you to die in training! Good things are happening for you though. I'm happy for you. Now all you need is a girlfriend so people stop asking if you're gay.

Good Job buddy! Congratulations! You can actually still live in Tucson too. So now you WILL have money come 2010!

You don't mess around do ya! Congrats!

Hope you are having a great one!

Thanks Amanda. I would be interested in the large size...IF my 15xDuovids will fit. It would be nice to see a write up on how well the different binos fit in these small vs large. Just my 2 pesos.

Good last line she had.

You can also check out marlinowners dot com for a ton of info on Marlin levers. They have a top notch forum; very informative.

"Go get 'em Tiger!"

Congratulations! I thought "mule deer!" too when I first saw the antlers. Way cool!

Great looking buck Phil! I was wondering how your AZ hunt was doing. Now you have to redeem yourself and take another long shot at a buck in old Mex! Congrats again. Hopefully someone here can make light of Jimmy's video and tell us why they lick each other like that.

That buck is gorgeous. Congratulations.

Crazy adventures! Even cooler pic!

That looks like fun! Had a buddy go down to Blythe this past weekend to hunt geese. Needless to say, you did a lot better. Thanks for sharing!

Sounds like you made some memories! Good luck on redeeming yourself...that's half the fun!

That IS a nice shot buddy! Hope you are well.

Looks good Skeeter! Crazy browtine too. Congrats!

Feliz Navidad!

Very cool! Looks like a fun hunt and the scenery looks awesome. Congrats on getting that cat!

Dumped him!!!

This trip began at the start of quail season. As you know, Scottyboy LOVES to hunt quail, especially Mearns. We kept trying to find an opening in our schedules for a hunt and it finally happened this past weekend. We were planning on heading down to Southern AZ to give me a taste of chasing Mearns. This would be my first time out on two experiences. First time for Mearns, and first time hunting with dogs. Scott has two great hunting dogs, Penny and Virgil, which you all know already from pics. From what was to transpire next, I come to find they LOVE to hunt, more than Scottyboy even! The night before, we contemplated our game plan. We were now going to try at the AZ quail slam! We would start with Gambels, then Scaled, and finish with Mearns. This would also be my first experience at even seeing a scaled quail, let alone hunt them. The Gambels won. (this time) Scott told me these would be the hardest to find and I thought he was crazy. We left with our frozen and frosted boots to find scalies. (20 minute drive) Scott got us on two coveys at the first ridge we went to. This guy knows his stuff! Now it's time to haul down to the Mexico border to find Mearns. Scott asks me if it's okay if we try a new area he had never been to. I was game, and we hunt some virgin territory. Full of high faced ridges and wonderful views of the surrounding mountain ranges. This was some tough hiking though. His dogs were having a blast and the running never even phased them. They probably ran five times the miles we hiked, easily. It's cool to watch them work too. They comb the area back and forth back and forth. Their stature changes as soon as they get "birdy" and it's showtime. Virgil is the coolest to watch since his tail stands straight up when he's on birds. It was an awesome experience. Did I mention these birds sit until you practically step on them?! Unbelievable. Makes me wonder how many birds I walk by while deer hunting. Penny even pointed at several birds that were two inches off her face! Thanks Scott for the invite. As soon as my legs recover, we'll go again!

Nothing keeps you guys from quail season huh guys?! Nice pic.
