Does anyone have a CVA Hawken that they were able to install a vernier tang sight? I have a TC hawken vernier tang i was going to offer to a friend for his CVA Hawken but I'm not sure the tang is long enough to mount the sight. It has a 1.250 hole pattern and from photos i have looked at it...

Looking for some feedback from people with experience on these rear sights. What are the strong points or faults with each and why do you prefer one over the other. I am looking for a little more range out of my Thompson cap rifle and need to improve the aiming system to keep my grouping. I can...

What do you folks use for snake country when you you are hunting? I had a pair of snake boots that rotted out just sitting in the closet, took them out on a bear hunt this weekend after 5 years and the soles fell apart. Now I am wondering about a good set of gaiters instead of boots. I don't...

I know there are a lot of Seedhouse 2 users on here that love the tent for back country hunts, myself being one of them. Just wanted to let ya'all know that they are on sale at the Big Agnes website for $95 on closeout. Mine is still in great condition but for $95 I ordered one to use for parts...

Just curious if any one has experiences good or bad with the collapsible spotting scope from Swarovski. It looks like a good idea being compact and small but there must be something not so desirable about them since they are not being made and very few available. Any comments on them would be...

Wade, Have you had a chance to get a PN60 with spot where you could field test to see how well it works? I'm interested to see how it performs and if it is as useful as it was designed to be. Just wondering? BB

Looking through some of the pics I took this summer and guess I have a fondness for old structures and this one seems to be one of my favorites for the year even though not totally in focus. Let see some of your favorite old structures that you captured on film (or SD) BB

A few friends said I should send this picture in to the Enquirer as it has been a long time since he has been caught on film. This obviously is a juvenile Big Foot! Be careful out there as I would hate to run into a Juvie like this with momma around the corner! BB

My buddy and I looked at these and I originally thought it was a wolf but my buddy figures with the better definition in the second pic the ears are long and the nose is short and pointy so he thinks it is a coyote. What do you think? It is the longest legged coyote I have seen! BB

The last one made me start to carry my sidearm during my archery bull hunt! Enjoy! BB

Here you go Paul, I was seeing a decent 6X6 bull at night a half dozen times but come July 24th after all the rain he never came back to the water source. I did see a few other critters though. As I posted in the Elk forum, I was not seeing any elk after July 24th so I moved up the road...

Not a monster bull but he is a pretty good bull for the area I was hunting. I did not see any elk in my spot for the last month and a half and thought I would try up the road about 4 miles. Boy am I glad I did. It's amazing how the excitement and the shakes of the moment are soon transformed...

Would like to put an arrow in this guy but I don't think I could get him packed out before spoilage or slipping. He is a ways in! and here is the cousin Good luck to everyone! BB

I have some bulls coming in a night every 4 days or so. Is there any tricks I can do to try to get them to come around during the daytime? How about cow urine or possibly estrus. They will most likely not be in the rut yet for my hunt but I am sure hoping to get a glimpse of the big boy during...

He's not a monster but if I see him during bow season I'll launch one in his direction. Not sure but I think he might hit around 320 or so Best of luck to all of you that drew tags! BB

Best of luck to one and all! BB

Looking to see if anyone has some Desert ram pics that they could share with good estimates of scores so i might get a better idea of what a 150 or a 160 class ram looks like. I know I have a tough task ahead even getting a shot at a ram but i would like to have a good idea of certain features...

Wishing that everyone gets one of these. I may need to take a trip to Vegas because I just felt my heart skip a beat and goose bumps on the arms as I read: Species: Bighorn Sheep Permit number: 000002 Results: Draw Successful I had promised to help a friend with his sheep tag in Nevada but I had...

Tommy, I sent you a PM if you have a chance to check in there. THX BB

LAST EDITED ON Jul-26-10 AT 02:42PM (MST)[p]Other than Barbary last year it has been a long time since I got any tags in NM. Looks like I will need to travel to NM for some scouting since I was able to land my 3rd choice for NR Deer and Elk. I hear it is a real tough unit so my expectations are...

LAST EDITED ON Feb-21-10 AT 11:18AM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Feb-21-10 AT 11:07?AM (MST) Looks like the GPS with the SPOT satellite locator will be available in May 2010 according to what I read on Amazon.com If it functions as it is was meant to then the $549 price tag is not that bad...

At home I just started to use a coffee grinder and buy my own coffee beans, decaf of course to be heart smart (doctors orders)!

Would it be worthwile buying a Buffalo or Elk tag to carry along while deer hunting the 12A-West late hunt?

I'm sure there are more individuals than myself that are extremely dissatisfied with the commisions decision to not consider the survey results that the hunters submitted against the Dec. coues hunt recommendations. It is a shame that they would state that it is not a scientific study and then...

I am looking to buy a small digital camera/video recorder and am considering the Sony DCR-DVD505. Does anyone have any experience with this model or any other units they would like to suggest that work very well? It seems I cannot get everything I want in one unit. I hoped for 4.0 megapixel for...
