"Buzzards gotta eat, same as worms"......Josey Wales....

Helluva fish !! Never saw a fluke that big.. I've caught Alaska halibut smaller than that !

Damn !! That' some serious water..Reminds me of June of '72.......

So sorry for your loss....I have lost several close buddies over the last few years, the last one a year ago, July 8th...

Nope...Color is all wrong for a woodchuck....Fisher, probably...Marten maybe..mink maybe...

Was your camera in bear box, TF ?? If not you are lucky she didn't rip in off the tree and chew it up.. Damn things are a PITA...

Defintely a member of the weasel family...Could be a skunk ( they don't all have white stripes) could be a fisher, or perhaps a marten..Looks too bulky to be a mink..

Dinsdale's hunting velociraptors... For a T-Rex he'd need at least a 20 MM.......

Larry 302 might consider putting some on his head....

Perfect bullet performance for what you plan to use it for...You cold load that sucker and use it again... casings look like Lapua, or perhaps Norma...

Ok.. I lookd them and they look like a blackberry that grows on a tree.. Sounds good, but I never hard of such a thing..Are they native ??

wtf IS A MULLBERRY ??? ok.....I'll google them....

Shame on us !! HAPPY BELATED BOITHDAY, YOUSE GUYS !!!

MY...That's a BIG one.............

I'll bet they didn't get many shots on the downwind side of the blind...

I did shoot a doe one time while I was taking a leak...I leaned my gun against a tree and started to pee and a doe stood up out of her bed about 50 yards away... I picked up my gun and shot her while Big Bob was swinging in the breeze...She was staring at me with her head moving back and forth, kinda like she was mesmerized.... I finished my whizz, tucked the old warrior back in my Carharts, and went over to collect my deer..

If they are mountain grizzlies, they will be much smaller than coastal grizz/browns....500 pounds would be a good one... Coastal black bears can easily reach that size, and coastal browns can be double that size or more..

Appearences can be deceiving, Moog....Last time I tried to run it was after a crippled goose..After about ten steps I stopped, held my ground and SHOT the silly bastid.... As far as bears and such go, I'd have to do the same thing.. Actually, it's a moot point, because in order to hunt grizzlies or brown bears in Alaska ( as well as in Canada) a nonresident has to hire a licensed guide, who will save your bacon should things get dicey.. The first time I hunted in Alaska, I walked into the airport terminal in Anchorage, and the first thing I saw was an enormous mounted brown bear.. I immediately realized that I was no longer on the top of the food chain.. While hunting Alaska, you take your rifle ( or heavy handgun) everywhere you go...If you go fishing, you take it....If you go out behind the tent to answer the call of nature, you take it...If you go down to the creek to get some water, you take it...

Philo...Everytime I eat pigeons I wonder why I don't hunt them more often....Excellent...You just have to be sure you cook the older ones long enough to tenderize them..

You pay my way and I'll be right beside you with my 9.3x62 and a 286 grain Nosler partition.... No way would I let some big hairy volkswagon chew on my Bestus Big Buddy Moog..

Moog...You'll probably be the next Jim Shockey ..<<grin>>... I grew up with hunting...My parents were children of the Great Depression, and just about everyone I knew hunted and fished.. I lived far enough from town that it was too far to walk and play team sports, so I just spent my time in the woods and the streams.. By age ten I was getting pretty good at hunting big game ( chipmunks) with my Daisy air rifle...By the time I was 12 my Dad was letting me roam the family farm with a .22 hunting rabbits, woodchucks and squirrels... Eventually, I was able to hunt some pretty far away and exotic places...I have hunted the North American continent from Texas, New Mexico and Colorado to Alaska, including 5 Canadian provinces and the east coast from Maine to Georgia... I have spent quite a bit of time in some wild and wonderful places, and never regretted a bit of it.. Now that I am retired am my income is limited, I hunt mostly around home, but that is not too bad either..I still enjoy hunting deer, turkeys, small game and waterfowl, and the area I live in is pretty good for that...I can drive about five minutes in any direction and be in some pretty good hunting territory..

Super work. Matt ! Can I contract you to carve a likeness of Miranda Lambert's butt on my skull after I cash in ? I would be happy through all eternity....<<<SMILE>>>..

The last one tied me up for free, but afterwards she wanted $200 to UN-tie me....

They strap you on a gurney and make you listen to Wayne Newton albums non-stop for a week...
