    Swarovski Spotting Scope Help

    Thanks guys for all the good information. You certainly didn't make my choice any easier. I decided to go with the 65. Should be the right choice for me. Actually my choice was made easier, because my hunting buddy decided to buy the 80. We should be covered for any situation. Thanks...

    Swarovski Spotting Scope Help

    Planning to purchase an STX-65 HD, or an STX-80 HD. Want the smaller scope, but is there a great advantage to the 80mm? I know, greater light gathering, but is it worth the weight, and expense for those few minutes? Can anyone of you who own one of these pass along any advice? Thanks, Iron

    slcmuley No harvest here. Passed on a 26" four point the last day right off a four-wheeler trail. Made a move on a couple larger bucks, but swirling winds, and unseen other bucks foiled our plans. Our local help was invaluable Saw eight harvested bucks. One near 30", your buck is way...

    Let's see those vernon bucks II

    Super nice bucks slcmuley. We saw bucks in that category, but nothing larger. I shot a buck like that the week before in Idaho. I think I saw your truck, with a Ram, opening morning, and with two other trucks on that bald ridge on day two. We worked east the rest of the week. Had a good...

    Sorry for the double posts boys. Not much of a computer guy. Probably not much of a deer hunter either, but I'll be giving her hell in Carrotville soon. Have a safe season. Iron

    Keeping the Wife Happy

    Your day broken down into at least hour increments????? Seriously???????????????? If that is true, you don't have a man card to turn in. It is deep in your wives purse. If you are a really good boy, she may let you look at it one day, but you will never get to carry it again. Change it now...

    Do you eat what you kill?

    I eat it or I don't shoot it. More of a trophy mule deer hunter. Only shot 2 bucks in the last ten years. Avid water fowler. Eat them all. Really disagree with those in the waterfowl community that shoot ducks, but won't eat them. Very poor form!

    Help Me Pick Big Buck Contest Winners ... Please

    Beautiful deer! Any of these bucks taken without the aid of an outfitter? I have nothing against hiring an outfitter, or the outfitting industry, but the most impressive bucks to me are taken DIY.

    Remington 700ml, DANGER

    I watched my buddies Remington 700 go off one morning by simply releasing the safety. After a quick discussion with my wife, I took my two boys Remington 700's to the pawn shop and sold them. Replaced them with two Weatherby Vanguard's. I couldn't take the chance!
