Coues 'n' Sheep

Bah HaHaHaHa!!! All I can say is..... SHUUURRR! Tobbacco pipe!

Thor.... OUTSTANDING Trophies!!!!!!! That is a Fantastic desert Ram! Details???? Here is my last sheep hunt and the most amazing hunting adventure I have ever been on! Being stranded in a tent for over 48 hrs straight with rain & snow,and having the wind blow so hard that your tiny little tent looks as if it will parashute you from the mountain, hiking 45 degree shale slids, and 60 degree slopes on a 4" wide sheep trail, traversing boulder fields that have a 1/4" of ice on them (that left a mark or two), and sleeping under the Aurora Borealis a half a dozen miles from your tent, food, and sleeping bag...... and so much more. What an adventure!

Been running the Pro Comp Extreme A/T on wife's 2500 Hemi, since Dec. of 2006 and they still have half the rubber on them and no problems. Don't know what size you are running but hers are 35x12.5 R17LT. Great tires! Good luck.

I can think of 2 possable reasons 1-Her Mom and Dad are the ones that found the Whiskey Buck sheds 2-And this is what I think. They Picked her up like a shed someone left behind There aint no way her UGLY father could have had anything to do with such a pretty girl You should see him dance around a camp fire to Deliverance Good Luck Kimberly from the whole family OUCH!!! I knew I there was a reason that I avoided your huntin' camps over there.... if ya'll are playin' banjo music you can count me out!!!

Geee, I wonder, Lark...... Must just be your bad luck. Lark, I kinda figured you for having a Really cool woman that did do all that stuff and killed lots of stuff, too .... and I figured that she would do most of her hunting with a spear or large knife... only killing the ones that she counted coue on first!

HaHaHaHa... Yup green with envy! If I had Scotty's money I'd burn mine!!!! Way Awesome trophies, Scott.... A lifetime of memories right there in those pics!!!! Congrats!

Way to go Dan!! Looks like you guys got it done in a big way!

+1 Ron! Spitfires are almost impossible to have a failure with! Everything I have shot with them has died with 1 1/4"-1 1/2" entrances and a 1 1/2" on exit.... Except the one that broke a shoulder into many pieces and did not pass through but the buck expired within 75 yds... On the other hand, I will not recommend the Rage based on the failures I have witness with others using them. CnS

That could be a new animal... a Leopard-Lion cross??? Hey..... the only good lion is.......the dead one lying in the bed of the pickup!!!

OUCH!!!!!

Well, smart-butt, why don't you give us an example of what your paying more for, other than fuel. Calling the rising cost of fuel a result of inflation is about the same as saying the canadian geese migration is the cause of global warming - their unrelated. I'm only 30 and certainly haven't seen it all, but I have see that fuel goes up every year regardless of what our economy is doing. Buy a hybrid or deal with it those are your options. And of course delivery costs will go up as a result, common sense there. I also hope you're including vehicles in your category of non-essentials, as the price on those usually plummets with the economy. Example: I've been hearing on the radio that one local dealership has Ram 1500's starting at $12k? Not to mention housing prices that are also falling through the floor, but again I guess you lump those in with i-pods. I do most of the grocery shopping in my house & haven't noticed an increase in the price of beef, pasta, or vegetables in the last three years. Apples are still 99 cents/lb. at Super Wal-mart, just like they were three years ago. Good point, though. Every economist I've seen on the news for the last couple months agrees we're in a recession, and there's going to be some bad things that go with that. The only thing that I find surprising about it, however, is that everyone seems surprised. Our economy has been driven on credit spending for the last 2 decades at least, not on real income. How long did people expect that to last? For God's sake, average household credit debt (cards, not counting auto-loans) has increased over 400% since 1980! The price of a new vehicle increased between 250%-300% between 1985 & 2000, while the average wage only went up around 10% for the same time period. Not to mention what's happening politically with all the uncertainty right now. The market never responds well around election time. And incidently, I am one of those people with a good job and savings. I'm also one of those that has almost no debt & usually pays for things in cash. Hate to be the one to break it to you, but you being bankrupt is great news for me. WOW.... Dude... I'd be carefull.... your words could turn to sawdust in your mouth before this is over with. There may be very, very few that are ammune to what could happen in this country. Now is a good time to be humble, and greatful for what you have... because arrogance will bite you. I don't know about your neck of the woods, but in mine we are suffering form more than just oil prices..... how about propane, electric, and water??? The ACC is going to put us all in the poor house with their big rubber stamp on utility increases and extra charges. And you are high on crack if you have not noticed that bread, milk, and anything made with corn has jumped in price at the market! We got a lot of work to do in this Country..... and it had better start with Transport Diesel Fuel costs and UYtility costs and trickle down from there...... IMO. CnS

I think they Should Not give us the checks. Then they could pool all those $$$$ together and contract with local businesses (Contractors), that employ only American Citizens, and build the Great Wall of Mexico with that money!!! Winner, winner Chicken dinner!!!!! Money stays in the US and is spent on MUCH need infastructure!! CnS

+1

I enjoy my Wife's hunting success more than my own. It is so awesome to share those momments with her. Not to mention that she has killed bigger stuff than I have!

This is by far my greatest trophy. My P&Y Desert Sheep from 2001..... Arivipa Canyon. My boy (Colton) and my Bro-in-law (Larry) were with me on the mountain that day and my wife was back at camp. We got it all on video. A 45 yd bow kill! Sharing my most important hunting momment with them was priceless! My close runner up..... Is the largest of my P&Y Coues deer. Archery buck #5 (of 6) fell to my arrow after 10 years of trying to break 100" with a bow. What a day. My boy hiked in that day to share the moment (and help me pack out my Awesome buck). All my very best hunting memmories have been shared with my Wife, my Son, and my Bro-in-law..... I Love them for that! It is Priceless.... to know you can count on family! CnS

All have to say is where is Ronald Reagan when you really need him??? Things are soooo Jacked up around here that only a leader as good as him Might have a chance of fixing it in the next 4 years... I'm thinkin' we have 6-10 years of heck in front of us at best.... and things will never be as good as they used to be.... We need a business man for a President..... not a left wing phsyco extremist, not a crooked woman, and truthfully not a soldier. McCain is our best choice and I think he will be a decent President, but he is not going to fix the immigration flood, the economy, or the fuel issues...... and the other two idoits are WAY worse!!! Just my $.02 CnS

I am told that they (Four Seasons) are cheaper that almost anyone else. I personally have never been impressed with most of their customer service..... however, if I was buying a new ranger I would buy it there. I don't think it will go in a standard truck bed..... and it takes a bigger trailer than a guy would think (like 10' min.). Best of Luck! CnS

Man! What a great trip!! I took me like over an hour to download all the pics, but it was worth it!! I have always wanted to do a trip like that but just never seem to find the time or anyone else that wants to go. Bear or no bear that piece of country looks like it has a ton of cool stuff to see and hunt! Great write-up and great pics! Thanks for posting and congrats! CnS

Ummmm... 1/2 the elk????? My Green Machine was packin' the 3 big packs, head & horns, plus Troy, and me..... but only about about 850-900 LBS... best as I can figure. I will ALWAYS own a Honda Foreman for just that reason! That '01 has had many a good days like that one and is still a Beast!!

LOL!!! your right, we could be, I'm not above that! Been there, done that, would gladly do it again! Do what??? Try to chew your arm off in the grey (gray) morning light before she wakes up??? I KNOW that Big Kids like you always wear the biggest sets of Beer Goggles!!!!!

Thanks, Matt. Yeah, I have a ton of hrs on my '01 and it is a great bike just like this one.... a little gas and a little oil and these Honda's will run Forever!!!! They are Elk packin' machines!!!

Come on now Gino ain't you married? Just send me a PM with those pics TJ HaHaHa!! I figured Ol' TJ for the kind of guy that would feed us a dinner salad and then eat all the Steaks while we watchin' him with hungry eyes.... So I just went online and checked her out! She looks pretty good in that Bikini, too! And now I know for sure that her and TJ don't share no blood!! And yes, Chrissy, I am married...... Happily so for almost 13 years to a Very beautiful woman that can cook, hunt, fish, drink, and raise heck with the best of them! You "Boys", can have them Young ones..... way to much maintenance, pain & sufferin', and trainin' involved for me to envy ya'll! BTW, TJ...... Congrats to you and your "hole" (as Casey likes to write it) Family! It is a thing of great pride to see the younguns' succeed!! Big Congrats to all of you and to her! CnS

HaHaHa! You could not Pay me to use those broadheads!! I had one friend make a "bread basket" shot on a bull at 45-50 yds with them and he never found the bull.... and he looked for a week! My Bro-in-law was using them and made a so-so shot on a bull right at dark and chose to back out. We were back in there at first light and the bull was bedded 60 yds from where he shot himand could not get up.... 2 well placed shots later the bull expired.... all 3 shots had poor penetration and that last two shots were at 10yds or less! Trash.... garbage.... worthless, piece-o-shite! I wouldn't even use them to shoot stumps!

I like the LS idea but a drab green or tan would be fine for me... camo is over rated. I would really like a polly LS like the Kings World shirts or similar.... something that is not cotton (fast drying).
