Excellent first post. I recommend grinding it out road hunting, that's all I do. I see tons of huge bucks.

I've got a great spot! Problem is some jerk in another thread posted up a pic of my home made tree stand. Now, since there are, like, totally, elk everywhere there is going to be totally to many people. I guess I just road hunt as well. If I see yah out there True maybe we can share a beer and discuss spotlights?

Share "a" beer! How dare you! I normally need to consume 10 - 12 cans of "aiming oil" before I start my road hunt.  :chuckle:

Sorry, I misspoke. You see, I usually just keep a growler tucked between my thighs. That way I have more time to work the spotlight. Always looking for a "road buddy" to keep an eye out for homeowners. I haven't found a good way to snip wire without making a lot of noise.

So if you had a "plan A" spot, surely it means you have a plan B and C also??
I agree with Miles, Out West is the place to be...Vail tree farm, Capitol forest..both should become plan A+ for you...

To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

I should also add that if you want to come on over to my area you are welcome. Blacktail are pretty dumb...drop in the bucket to shoot a nice one. Also tons of public land and willing landowners.

Just drive around a couple gated roads and you will find plenty of game a few miles back.... Just make sure to wave and smile as you drive past all the guys walking.  :chuckle:

That's sad to hear. It sucks when medical bills take someone for all their worth.

You could try the Desert Unit (290).  I don't think it gets much pressure during modern rifle.

Prius?  Wimp... I have an electric 4 wheeler that seats 4, all wheel drive.  I put 36 in. mudders on it... sneaks right up on them there deer in the early morning/late evening hours... and since I usually am about toasted from drinking all day, good thing it does not go to fast either...   :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I would actually reccomend Alkali 371. Seen some monsters come out of there.

I guess if he is a Yakama, that would be an option. Not sure about the Desert unit though. Do Yakama's have rights there?
