These 2 trips have been very valuable. I'm confident I've found a good area that won't likely get much pressure. I've seen deer, identified and marked travel corridors and gotten a really good overall feel of the area... which is "large".
Also, yall need to take a better look at pics 3 and 4, and tell me what you see.
Actual scouting work!
How far out was that lone cow?
~4 miles from a ranch house in the middle of the desert which I assume belongs to the owner of these cattle.
She was traveling between 2 water holes... Bout a mile apart. All the cow sht I saw on trip 1 was old, really old. The tire troughs at the windmill (primary) were empty and had been for quite some time. On this trip (#2) the tire trough at the windmill was full of loose mineral and several blocks of salt.... barely touched yet. There were about 25 big head hanging out at the secondary water source. It appears they were just turned out. I'm guessing I'll have more cow pics in the future. I'm not really concerned about em. I might even get one of those ridiculous "cow camo dekes" to use during season.
I can imagine a number of scenarios where I could successfully deploy a cow decoy and kill something.
I've been thinking about something recently..
Somehow I've lucked into being invited on ranch hunts in NM and CO. I'm concerned about bringing the recurve and it being perceived as inconsiderate
or something of that nature or whatever if the hosts don't understand.
I definitely don't want to do anything this year and get crossed off the list. I'm thinking about taking a compound to Colorado (not as much risk in the nm trip I don't believe).

I could possibly see them being a little put off when they find out you've just started out with trad archery this year, esp the Colorado folks.
You are a lot harder to cyberstalk through photos than Sean.
Forget that... have you studied pics #3 and #4?
If they find this thread and count the number of dead pig photos and then compare it to the number of pigs shot at... Well yeah, they might throw you off the ranch.
Got home all bummed about golf and fiddled w my dads zxt then shot a few before dark. Arrows flew great and I think my shooting fundamentals are better than ever, but I sure don't like that bow.
I was crucified on this board once before for saying this but the Z line of bows (Z7, ZXT, etc) is what turned me away from Mathews. They set the riser so far back in the bow that it would take a 2 foot long stabilizer to give it any sort of balance. Those models moved me to Bowtech, and I'm currently sitting a Hoyt.
Ya but I like have this one. Would have had a pile of money had I woke up on the right side of the bed today.
It may be the mondo stabilizer route for me this fall

That's when I left Mathews as well. All the things you mentioned along with the fact that riser looks like it was made with a waffle iron.

ILL probably order a stabilizer and peruse the classifieds the rest of the summer.
Or maybe I have one more tequila and order something tonight. Would be easier had I not dumped a pile of cash into a golf endeavor w my brother this weekend.

You need to focus.
Honestly though everything flew good enough tonight w about 10 min of effort that I'm confident it will be fine by September
Listen partner I'm mighty focused
Or hammered. I might be hammered
Golf is not part of focus.
If Ya can shoot when yer hammered, ya should be fine
I can outshoot and outrun everyone here
*inside of 100 yards
I leave for Colorado next Wed and I'm ELK HORNY!
I got boned out of my scouting trip. Loading cattle in mason Friday, Sale on Monday Tuesday Wednesday in Breckinridge,, loading cattle in Waco Thursday Friday Saturday
an i got to work in filming in lubbock sometime
Make hay while the sun is shining.
i have oxen and ditches often colliding
Ha... Good luck. Oxen and ditches are good things. Not as good as Alpine meadows but good 
Man... I went to bed too early last night. /LaughCry
Agreed... Fireworks came a night early
Never so happy to be rained out of work this morning. Alarm went off at 5 and it was pouring..hot damn! Got my chores knocked out and now I be desk jocking for the rest of the day.

Rancher/Hunter/Porn Star... Murca
Now things shaping up where I can't go hang out in the mountains a few days...even if it is for work.
I need some interns
Welcome to my life on page 23.
Hey, you people... Remind me of some of your bino chest harness options and reviews. I specifically want space to keep my rangefinder both DRY and HANDY.
