    Shooting From Prone Posistion

    Alright I hate to admit it but at 64 years old I am a relative new-bee to shooting a rifle from the prone position so I have some questions. When I get down and try to look through the scope I don't get a real good sight picture and feel like I have my eyes pointed up to get a view through...

    Arizona HAM Javelina

    After seeing prhunter's post on his javelina I remembered that I hadn't posted about mine. This was our 24 year leaving Colorado to go to Arizona for the HAM season. It started out as a way just to get warm but for 2 of us it turned into a annual event. The hunt was hot and I mean hot the...

    Finished Up My Coues Hunt

    Well, I wished that I could tell all of you that I bagged a booner but my shot did not go true and hit it's mark and my other stalk was blown by some ATV riders. But I had a fantastic time chasing these little gray deer of the south. My first stalk was for over a mile while the buck was on...

    African Mounts Have Come Home

    I have finally come full circle, and all of my mounts are now home. My biggest problem was trying to find a wall to hang them all on but I think that they will do quite well where I have them. So far I have moved all of them around to different spots trying to figure out the best area for them...

    Muly Buck Survivor

    If this gentleman continues to hang out where he is now for the next 2 1/2 weeks he should make it out of the hunting seasons. He is on a section of private property within town limits. But even if he heads back to the hills behind him he should be safe unless someone comes up with permission...

    Lets Talk About Headlamps

    What headlamp do you like? I'm looking for a good one that puts out a good amount of light. It doesn't have to look like daylight when I am using it but a close second. I don't like ones with rechargeable batteries. They seam to die at the wrong moment and then you have to dig out your...
