Coues Sniper Report post Posted March 4, 2013 Thanks guys Good Luck out there Kevin. Hope all goes well for you and your family. Thanks Larry Good luck! You have to go where the jobs are and it sounds like the combination of all the things you mentioned (pay, schedule, more and higher level experience, etc.) made the decision a no-brainer for you and your family.Plus, seven bucks and unlimited does is an incredible limit! Your family will eat well.Looking forward to future posts from you. Thanks Jimmer. It wasn't where I wanted to live, but they did make it a no decision deal for me. Glad you are looking forward to it, family is important, nothing else matters. Personally, I'll rob Circle K's before I move east of the Mississippi I was with you until a couple weeks ago slim. Still can't believe I'm here. Wow, good luck with the new job!! I hope you get enough time off to take advantage of those liberal deer seasons! The east coast is a beautiful place to live. Is your family looking forward to the move? It's bittersweet. The wife is looking forward to having me home every night, but we are leaving a huge support group back in Vegas - My parents, her parents, and her sister all live there. Good luck on the move and make sure and send us some pictures of your success which I know you'll have! Thanks Phil. I hope I'm able to get out and hunt often. From what I hear it's lots of deer, but not much trophy potential. That's fine by me though. I should get some good opportunities with my bow which will be a blast. I'll keep everyone here posted.

HaYen Report post Posted March 15, 2013 Not that I want to see you go but I'm more of a glass half full kind of guy. That being said you can hunt that small Sika in Maine (closer than AZ) and "Maine is home to one of the largest of the 30 recognized subspecies of white-tailed deer. After attaining maturity at age five, our bucks can reach record live weights of nearly 400 lbs. Most adult bucks, however will normally range from 200 to 300 lbs live weight, and will stand 36 to 40" at the shoulder. Does are considerably smaller; they normally weigh 120 to 175 lbs live weight. Newborn fawns begin life at 4 to 10 lbs, but grow to approximately 85 lbs live weight in their first 6 months of life." I'm sure Jersey has some big bucks. I did get an email once that listed an article that the Jersey State goverment was asking hunters to help control the number of deer in the area. The catch, no center fire and you had to shoot from a tree stand. I will have to add Jersey to my states to hunt. Good lucj and visti CWT offen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRDATR Report post Posted March 15, 2013 So you'll be trading Mexican Food for Italian Food. LOL Plenty of hunting and salt water fishing there too. Hard work and dedication usually pays off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never heard of that subspecies before. I will definitely be looking into that. So you'll be trading Mexican Food for Italian Food. LOL Plenty of hunting and salt water fishing there too. Hard work and dedication usually pays off. Plenty of that already. I did try a mexican restaurant that was highly rated online - and it was garbage. Good thing I still like good italian. Never had it as good as up here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRDATR Report post Posted March 17, 2013 When I want Mexican Food I go to the market and buy what I need then make it @ home. This way I can have it the way I like it and know how fresh everything is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
