Hunter shoots at dead deer on cart, hits other man
ThomC replied to down2hunt's topic in The Campfire
"The State Department of Environmental Police" isnt that a joke. -
The answer is all of the above and add luck. That will be the best that you can do. Finding a buddy that has the knack will improve your chances. The knack is something that is intangible. My son has it and I taught him how to hunt but he is so much better than me. It is a skill that some people have that sets them above others plus hard work.

Wow after all that I hope that people still know that you can be cited for exactly what the regs say. No FMJ. The comment, ( like a military) is a descriptive term and not all inclusive. Many rules are open to interpretation. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it is a duck. What would a reasonable person say " it is a duck". IMHOP of course. In fact all posts are opinions although some are not humble.

Based on your apparent lack of knowledge you need to stay under 300yds. Give the Elk a break rather than wounding one.

How many animals have you harvested in Arizona

The first liar doesn't have a chance. Can I count packrats? -
Your machine or you have appleplexy.

Some people are color blind like the deer. I have a buddy who lives in MI where you have to wear at least a orange hat. He went in the store and couldn't tell which ones were orange. He had to ask the clerk which one was orange. He says that camo stands out better than orange to him.

If your going to buy used you need to take in consideration the owner and wow he drives. I would never buy a lifted. chipped. oversized tired etc from a young person. Try to buy a truck from an old man who didn't hardly drive it off road. All manufactures make fairly good trucks. One persons experience doesn't make any difference. Don't buy anything the first year it is out, it takes about three years to get the bugs out. With that in mind look for what tickles your fancy. Then wait and look for sometimes a year to find what you like. Then maintain it properly, drive it easy, and you will be happy.

People used to drive home with the deer hanging on a fender with the hide still on. I suspect that they didn't like the taste of deer. We are still in a long term drought in the desert. Setting records and ill bet raising the average. Us oldtimers remember the good old days. I used to wear a wool jacket deer hunting.

If you Could Have Just One...
ThomC replied to SheepDreams's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Pre 64 light weight Win 3006. Is the all around best. -
Just before Deer season is not the time to clean the bore. Get your rifle sighted in then leave it alone till after the hunt. After you have it sighted in then if you can try one shot with a cold barrel. Your first shot is the most important one.

Democratic Decision on Pronunciation of Coues
ThomC replied to Big Tub's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
I will continue to pronounce our perfect little whitetail deer "Coues." It is easy to say, the o and the u together is a unique sound that doesn't sound like a w. What's the problem with that?????????? Okay now it is settled. -
The key ingredient in socks is Merino wool. It is the best wool, way better than other wool. I like danner socks. They are so comfortable that I give them as gifts to people who don't hike. They are so comfy in the winter. You have to pay more than $10. Don't buy cheap. Happy feet.

Team Teel! First archery Coues Deer January 2014
ThomC replied to s.teel12358's topic in Bowhunting for Coues Deer
That was an amazing story, very well written and probably a first. A father and a daughter shooting with bows a Mule deer and a Whitetail from the same spot on the same day. You are obviously a wonderful daughter, hunter, and writer. Please post some more stories. I think that you should write a book. -

Squirrel Hunting Today
ThomC replied to bgshooter's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
Are they Kaibab squirrels? -
My son got his first deer in the unit. We went out and glassed. I saw a deer and lined him up. He shot it. Since you don't want honey holes I wont tell you where it was.
