[vinihunt]

Hola..

I am the moderater of NM forum. The Founder of this MM asked me and I said sure...and I hope I can be able to answer the questions or ask question if u have any! I want our NM forums to look good with no fightin, insulting or anything bad about NM hunting!!

and yes NMHUNTNUTT is right! I forgot to mention that I myself am a DEAF avid hunter and fisherman! I am glad I met him and hope to continue our friendship and go on a smokepole hunt with him up in unit 52 sometime in the future! huntin with him for big game! Hope to meet the rest of u on MM..mozey, crazymaes, crazyaboutcoues,LCHC,Lionking, nmmuley and others. I hope to meet Balz on the oryx hunt in 2 weeks. I know JAMARO!!!you all can idenfity me by when I say I can't hear, u know it is me if any of u meet me in the mountain. I have a blue honda fourtrax 4x4 on track not off road and drive black dakota 4 door with elk and deer decals!

Communicating with me is easy! really! some people I met thought "oh no!" hard to talk, but really not! if you have patience and use gestures, or write down on paper etc etc the rest of it will be fine! I can read lips pretty good but speak not really!!! I am tryin my best! If my wife is with me, she can interpret for me because she is fluent in American Sign Language.

I have a great wife Teresa, 2 tuff little rascal sons named Elijah and Zachary. My wife is awesome, she knows that I love to be in the mountains or out fishin..I am so fortunate to have her, she allows me to have many mounts in our house even though she hates the way the javelina looks, but she is ok with it! and I have my dad and brother, few cousins, friends who I love to go hunting with! of course I enjoy to be with them if I don't have tag to hunt

I go with my deaf friends also and help them on hunting/fishin too!!

Good post Mr. Moderator!!

I may be from TX and now live in AZ, but I still spend alot of time in NM.. I'm on the NM forum quite a bit keeping up with the what nots and whats happenings in NM. Good to see its going to be policed by a good dude!!

Vinni, Im going to PM you for a bit of info on a gunt we're planing in the near future.

 

[jamaro]

Hey Brother.. Great post... but you could summed it up by saying...

My name is Vini, I have a great family and I KILL A TON OF CRAP...


Guys you should see... When Vini and I used to work in the same building there were always crows around his truck... I think it is because they new that sooner or later that truck was going to lead to a gut pile....

Just for those that dont know Vini, he is always helpful and friendly as long as I can remember reading his posts.

Vini,

You do a great job moderating this forum, keep up the good work! Our paths crossed last year on a snowy December elk hunt in unit 51 and hopefully they will cross again in the near future. Good luck on all your hunts this season and I cant wait to see the pics and read the stories.

Vinni,

Keep up the good work and keep filling the tags out successful. Nice shots of the Alaska game that you guys got, was that your Moose or Dan's? very nice.
What part of NM you live in?

It would be a real pleasure to meet you Vini.

I'll be in 34 from the 7th till the end of season.
I need to try that BBQ place in Cloudcroft. If you are going to be in the vicinity let me know. I'll buy.

Hey Vini,
words shared over this site cannot express the graditude I have for our friendship.You are the first person I met from here years ago, and hope to have that hunt with you , maybe 2009 is our year to share a camp fire and some green chili....

 

[crazyelk]

Vinny,

As always, the right man for the job. Nice picture of you and family. Let me guess, that pic was taken at Lagunitas, Ha?

Can't wait to get out this next weekend. Unit 52 muzzle antelope. My wife Gail and son Francisco Jr. will be hunting. This is the first time in 16 years that I will not be carrying a muzzleloader on this hunt. Gail drew for this hunt and Jr. will be using the landowner tag that I usually use. That's cool. It's all about the wife and kids now. We have been shooting some new muzzleloading powder. It's called blackhorn 209. Great stuff, very clean burning, accurate, no more swabbing in between shots, and no more stuck breech plugs. You got to check it out. The real test will be this weekend. Gail and Jr. have been shooting a bunch...they are ready. Hopefully we can post some success next week. If not, that cool. It's all about spending some quality time together. Taco Bell is always open till midnight if we can't get some antelope meat. My trigger finger is itchy though. I think I found a decent rifle antelope tag near Springer. Dad has to play too.

Vinny, keep up all the good work with MM and keep being an excellent husband, father, son, and friend. Good luck with all future hunts and future endeavors. Stop by, when you are over in TP. Maybe on of these days we spend some time cooking over a "disco" at hunting camp.

To all MM members, thanks for all the positive things you provide to this site. Keep it up and let's make VINIHUNT proud of the number one State Forum.

Nice hearing from you Vin, you've been awol for a while man but looks like it was for good reason. I look forward to seeing more pictures and posts from you this year as I'm sure you will be responsible for some brown hitting the ground this fall. See ya' in the mountains.

I have hung with you but have not had the pleasure to hunt or fish with you, maybe someday we can get together and do it. I think the boys would have a blast together I will be jumping around come hunting season and would love to met up with you some time! I know we missed each other on last years hunt/scouting trip in unit 17 soi maybe next time.

Great job on being the moderator!! Keep up the good work!

[mossback50cal]

Thanks for the pictures and letting us know about you! You seem like a great person and maybe we can run into each other some time out in the field. Hopefully I have some pictures to post this year, have had a few year drought! Hopefully this will be the year to break out of that!! Good luck all!

 

[mozey]

Vinny, much thanks for the great job that you do. Like ktc says, the NM thread is the best on MM. I think you can take a big part of the credit for that. The best pics on this site are you together with your boys.

I'm looking forward to the day you, me, crazeymaez, and BIGBULL48 get together to do some shed hunting. You'll probably show us all up, but it'll still be great! Don't worry about finding too many, Miguel is always glad to help you pack a few extra out... ;-)

WapitiBob,

I'll be in 34 as well starting the 9th. My first hunt in NM and I am excited. BBQ sounds good and even better since you're buying, LOL!

Vini,

If WapitiBob is buying the BBQ, I'll buy the brews. Love that family portrait, good job and thanks for stepping up as mod.
