    Large Coues Buck Down!!!

    I’m jealous. Very thick set of antlers. I’ve gone on two Coues hunts and have yet to bag one. Probably still learning the game. I’m back to 4 points again so maybe next year. I’ve been in unit 23 and 34a prior. One late season where I saw a few bucks I just couldn’t get a decent shot on them...

    Blaze orange on MCC?

    I live and hunt up on Palomar. Public land is pretty dangerous up here. I was swept by a guy with a rifle/scope a few years ago hunting private land and he was on public. Hunters should never use a rifle scope as a spotting optic but a lot of idiots do. And Palomar is chocked full or idiots and...

    Blaze orange on MCC?

    I’m an MCC member. Some zones get poached/trespassed more than others, they’re basically like hunting public land. Others are more secure. Time and experience will let you know which ones. Generally I’d say no but if you’re uncomfortable - wear it. Obey the rules, be ethical and there shouldn’t...

    Camo is not necessary……Change my Mind

    I think it gives a real edge for Turkey and duck hunting but I don’t think it’s necessary for deer. For deer just avoid blue, they see in a form of grey scale but have a rod and cone set up that lets them see blue or purple really well. Supposedly it stands out like neon to them. Deer hunting i...

    SxS 20 gauge

    I’ve been an MCC member since 2008 so I’m hunting quail and deer a lot this fall. I’m there during the week mostly - I have a cabin up on the mountain and I’m retired. I’ll be there Thursday to Saturday this next week. I didn’t buy the EM grades because ordering blind was a little bit of a risk...

    SxS 20 gauge

    I haven’t hunted with it yet. I will when I go out for quail. At the clays range it’s a killer. My only caveat is that SXS guns in general fit very differently that O/Us and Semi autos. They have to be stocked slightly higher because of the tendency to shoot lower. So buying one could be a...

    308 Win is a great hunting Cartridge…Change my mind

    I’d say it is a GOOD hunting round; but there are many better. I prefer the .270, .280 (as non-magnums) rounds which are faster and flatter and have more energy BUT if you consider the .308, is 90% as good as those rounds it will still do everything you need it to do. I’ve also come to believe...

    SxS 20 gauge

    I recently bought a FAIR ISIDE 20 gauge - FAIR is one of the 4 Rizzini families of gunmakers. It’s a hell of a gun for $1700. I needed to shorten it by about 3/4” but the cast is right and I shoot well with it. It does have extractors rather than ejectors and an auto safety and the wood and case...

    Have any of you been paying attention???

    Paying attention is all I’ve been doing. I donated to various Republican campaigns and joined CRPA this year. It’s going to be an ugly 4 years....

    AZ trail cam ban coming

    Here are the proposed rules and why they are considering it. Hunter conflicts about game cameras are becoming a real PITA as well as the other negative effects on game...

    Ammo

    I saw this coming too...for years. The two things that tipped it off were the ammo background checks and non lead laws. Not only did I stockpile ammo but I also learned to reload and stockpiled components. Now I can make just about anything I need. If shooting and hunting is a lifelong passion -...

    AZ trail cam ban coming

    Nevada already did it. I don’t see anything political here. To me it’s simply leveling the playing field. Professional outfitters were running hundreds of cameras. I have cameras and use them but if they banned them on Public (everyone’s land) land I’d be ok with it. Game commissions are always...

    Camera and Sim Card Thief

    I had a couple of cameras stolen by this old tweaker couple out on a forest walk before Corona got going this spring. Still trying to figure out who they are. It was on a private property I watch for the owner up on Palomar. I Python lock all of them now. Losing a card sucks but losing cameras...
