    22-250

    Was ya burn in the 30's also Mike, Are you slurring your typing, again??? I have owned a Rem. 700, 22-250 for a long time and love that gun!!! It has tipped over criters as big as, Speedgoats, and Texas Whitetails.... but it is very weak in the wind.... and has let me down in the canyons hunting coues. So now I pretty much use it as my truck gun, and for preditor calling. If you are looking for something below a .30 cal. I'd have to vote for the 257 Wby.... or the .270 (or .270 wsm)... also have you considered the .300 WSM?? Good Luck. CnS

    WOW... That is about as racist as they get... J- Where in there does he hint at being a racist? All he says is that weather or not he is a Muslim ( which by the way, his father and step father are not only muslim, but muslim radicalists)? All he says is that he isnt getting his vote. You are reading it in its edited version.....

  4. Welcome aboard, Bryan. Just wanted to bust your bubble a bit..... about your signature ..... I am pretty sure that, I am Jimbo's hero now...... and I took that fair and square from Shortpants who stole it from firstcoueswas80 (secondcoueslostahorn), who beat up Younghunter for it, a year or two back....... Thought you might want to get back-o-the-line! Again, Welcome! CnS

    I voted 10x50, the 15x56 or 15x60 have many, many uses as well. If I was to own ONLY one pair of Binos (instead of 3-4) .... that One pair would be 10x50's for me. Just my $.02!!

    Here is a link that will scare the stuffing right out of you!! Everyone in America might want to sit up and wait for this LONG, and I do mean L O N G, download..... It will make you wonder, and I think we should all wonder about what turbulance runs under the surface of the man named Osama.... http://www.eyeblast.tv/Public/Video.aspx?rsrcID=2036

    draw only deer hunts

    Lark, Your dead on, IMO. It separates and gives better opportunity to the Serious Bow Hunter. We, too, have talked about it for years in my close group of friends..... But I am not sure if, in the Big Picture, it is for the best. I, for once, am really on the fence here..... There are reasons that make it really good for the Only with a Bow hunter and also helps the gun only guys as well. I just can't help but wonder...... what is next... all archery deer and turkey hunts? They are increasing, and yet decreasing, opportunity...... all at the same time, depending on how you look at it. It is muddy water at very best...... IMO. CnS

    Turkey Hunting?

    Do you have tags in All 3 units??? YOUTH Stay with it SkyChick I would do that but I like to hunt with ny granpa and dad. ? I want to Help But ???????????????????? I am not sure I understand what ur getting to. He means you are E-scouting....again. Except you are e-scouting 3 units instead of 1 unit at a time.... like most guys do. It is hard enough to learn one unit at a time and you can only hunt one unit at a time..... soooo.... Pick one, git out there, and Git after it! I, personally, think that a guy ought to not give up on a spot that he has hunted for years.... those birds are still there somewhere..... or were pushed somewhere not too far off.... Find them and you will have a new Honey Hole! Best of luck. CnS

    New Magazine

    I, for one, don't think we need anymore "showcasing" of any part of this state.... That is what turns little known corners into Parking lots. If someone wants to know more about a certain part of the state let them get their arse off the sofa (or the crapper) and go check it out.... Otherwise.... good luck on the publication. CnS

    New fire

    We got to talk to my Boy tonight and they are fighting a brand new fire (3 starts) on a mountain called Pillar Peak(??) in Cochise Co. I have no idea where that is but if anyone can tell me where that is, I'd apreciate it. They believe it to be started by Illegals and they are not allowed to fight it at night or sleep out to do safty issues...meaning all the drug runners. I guess the fire is in a Miserable place and they may get a chopper ride in tomorrow to save them the long and brutal hike in there to the top.... I'd apreciate any info you all might have down that way..... Thanks, CnS

    New fire

    Aaah, now we're getting somewhere. That does make perfect sense; baffle of 'em with brilliance. Instead of trying to smuggle drugs through the most monitored and patrolled area of the country, just create a farm on top of a mountain in the same area and double the chances of detection. After all since we can't find it on a map, it sure as heck won't be found by the border patrol or narcs. -TONY Um... I'm sorry if you misunderstood.... the fires are burning Up the mountain.... they were started in some side canyon(s).... probably toward the bottom, I'd guess. I must have the name wrong... I'm guessing it is one of the mountains that TLH mentioned. TLH, Buckhorn and I were talking about that this morning... it gets in their blood. My boy has wanted to fight wildland fires since he was 6 years old... now on his second year with this awesome Crew... he could be classified as a Hardcore Fire Junky. The boy loves cutting trees and putting out fires.....he lives,eats and sleeps it and unless he is Hunting or Chasin' those Girl Critters... it is what he thinks about most. CnS Two new fires started in Cochise County yesterday. The one your boy is on is probably by Miller Peak, which is in the Huachuca Mtns right on the border. It is very rough, rugged country and I believe that they were shipped in by heliciopter this morning. Good news is I think that they have a pretty good handle on it. He will be diggin' that chopper ride vs. pounding the ground in there! Thanks! CnS

    New fire

    Thanks...... He said that the mountain is like the Rim x3 or x4! I have seen him run up the face of the Rim and down it.... He was impressed with how big that Mountain is and it must real close to the border. He is just glad to be on a fire... regardless of where it is. CnS

    Proper English? "Atleast"? Ha ha, busted! And you're supposed to be able to bench your own bodyweight, sissy. HaHaHaHa!! You tell him Kevin!! Hey Casey, I figured you to be a member of the 500 club as Wicked tough as you say you are!
  21. Dude!!! Please tell me that you did not take you deer field photos in the back seat of a mini-van???? Sorry, I have nothing for you on Turks in 27... But, good luck on the hunt! CnS

    Unit 33 Hunt pressure

    Well the Illegals have ruined the border units.... So let AZGF ruin the rest! They can't allow 33 to continue to produce the best coues deer in the state for very long.... that would be just plain Wrong!!! We just thought Coues Deer were hard to hunt..... they just got Harder! I just wish I was as Edjumacated as the AZGF so I could understand their management plan.... are we trying to harass the deer to death or harvest and manage them..... I'm to Stupid to understand..... I guess. Boy, I sure am glad we all have more Opportunity.... aren't you guys??? CnS

    First Aid/Survival Kits

    Quite honestly Daryl.... here in Az we have so little true wilderness hunting that less is more, IMO.... I stick to a couple simple things for most AZ hunts: 2 protein bars, 1 spaceblanket, 1 mini-emergency poncho, matches, a bit of rope, water and my hunting gear.....and that is too much weight as it is. I didn't even carry much more than that when hunting in the NWT... and we slept out over night 6 (GPS) miles from camp. I did have my wool sweater, gloves, beany, and Gortex rain parka and that kept me warm. But in reality I had more gear with me than both of the guys that were my "guides"... I just really think less is more... the secret is to have alittle extra and don't worry about the rest..... all that survival stuff just isn't as handy in the modern world of GPS's, radios, and cell phones. Make yourself prepared menatly for a night out on the mountain and the rest will work out fine in 99.9% of the situations you will ever get yourself into. Again, Less is More! IMO. CnS

    My dad brought home 2 thirty pounders from Bartlett one day and it was super good eating. From my experience they are good fresh and not good after being frozen and then thawed. The way we cook em up is take the whole filet and cut into chunks and batter it and fry em up. It's like eating popcorn chicken, but it's fish, and it tasted awesome. Yeah, see we always found the big fish to be kinda meally and mushy.... I love catfish but just can't even bring myself to try those big fish again.... I'll turn then back to make more little'uns! 1-3 pounds are actually my favorite.... Pan size! fried in that beer batter or just corn meal. Now that is some good eatin' there! I'll have to try the bigguns' again and I'll try it the way you guys mentioned. Thanks. CnS
