The Texas Bighorn Society had installed guzzlers the year before at the Adams Ranch in the area, and it was clear that they were also helping mule deer. My longtime friend David Wetzel shared an ambitious plan with me. With the help of some new and old friends, guzzlers with buried holding tanks, in-ground gravity-fed drinkers and huge catchment aprons could be installed. After some planning and organizing, an alliance of partners was brought together − Texas Parks and Wildlife, Sul Ross University, Texas Bighorn Society, DSC and MDF volunteers from all over the state. This first MDF venture would be on the Adams Ranch in Brewster County. This mule deer heaven had been purchased by CEMEX USA and the Cuenca Los Ojos Foundation in 2006, and came with a Conservation Easement in place held by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation, which would ensure

As can be expected when embarking on a project this large, the building of wildlife guzzlers was a rollercoaster ride of planning and coordination.

4 | Dallas Safari Club News biggame.org biggame.org NOVEMBER 2014 | 5 FISHING FEATURE By AARON ADKINS Fishing Adventure – A Flossie Slam An angler and crew brave an oncoming tropical storm in Kona and hit pay dirt.

In July 2013, I fished four days in Kona with venerable Capt. Marlin Parker and his crew. The boat chatter all day long on day two was the oncoming Hurricane Flossie, predicted to strike the Hawaiian Islands late the next day. No sensible person would fish in a hurricane, of course. But hurricanes rarely pass directly through Hawaii. And in the past, hurricanes forecasted to hit the Hawaiian Islands more often than not ended up veering off and missing the Islands. Most captains and clients were canceling their charters the next day. But with the Hurricane not expected to hit the Big Island until the afternoon, Capt. Parker gave us the option of giving the next day a shot − starting the next morning and keeping closer than normal to the marina for a quick run back in the event the weather turned and we needed to run in quickly. As a billfishing addict that does not get nearly enough time on the water (in my view), I jumped at the chance. In fact, I was very optimistic. Kona is a great billfish fishery. It produces lots of marlin and lots of big marlin. The captains and boats are top notch. The charter rates are reasonable. And the Big Island of Hawaii is a wonderful place to visit. I just have one complaint − there are too many fishing boats crowding up the fishing grounds. With most of the boats staying in the next day, we would have the fishing grounds mostly to ourselves. Our prediction proved right, and it turned out to be a great day. The next morning, the weather was calm, the sun was bright and the The Big Island of Hawaii is also a good blast water was flat. Hurricane Flossie had been downgraded to a tropical storm and cast destination. In addition to the billfish and was veering north.

And then we

6 | Dallas Safari Club News biggame.org up. With due concern for the weather, Capt. Parker made the decision to fight the marlin a bit aggressively. And in too short of time, we had the marlin to the boat for a quick release. We now had a coveted Grand Slam (an angler catching three different billfish species in a single day). Someone jokingly called it a “Flossie Slam!” With the skies turning dark and the waves and rain picking up, we made a quick run to the marina. By the time we were organized and ready to head home, the rain was coming down steady. In the end, the Tropical Storm did much less damage to the Islands than predicted, having weakened and veered north. It did not at all interrupt our vacation. I very much enjoyed the Grand Slam and fishing with my father and a great captain and crew. And with the conclusion of this story begins another. got a double on striped marlin (the largest around 50 pounds).

Many times, folks write to me and ask why they are getting different results than what the “book” tells them. It seems they take a Nosler book, which tells them to use a certain amount of IMR 4350 powder and a 130-grain bullet, using Federal 210 primers to produce x feet per second (fps). The only problem is that John Q. Reloader used a Sierra bullet and a Remington 9-1/2 primer and achieved a lower velocity. Whoa, now the writer is all excited as he did not get the same results. First of all, virtually every reloading manual is produced by a bullet or powder manufacturer. Their first intent is to sell you a book, and then hope you use their bullets or powder. What you also need to factor in is the difference in the gun or barrel each is using. One manual may be using a premium naturally was the slowest, while the Remington Stainless barrel of very tight or minimum dimensions 24 inches consistently gave the most uniform groups and the Walther long, while another one may be using a standard factory shot the smallest groups. production sporter with a 22-inch barrel. One may be using I looked up this load in the Nosler, Hornady and Barnes a stainless barrel and another chrome-moly. Absolutely every Manuals, and found that they all use a 24-inch barrel. However, component affects everything. Barnes does not list H4831 with their 130-grain bullets. Nosler Just to see what really happens, I ran some tests using states a maximum load of 56.5 grains and Hornady’s maximum several different combinations of .270 Winchester caliber load is way up to 62.0 grains. So, you can easily see why the old rule of thumb is to “start barrels and rifles I had available. See Table. CT As you can see, every barrel is a law unto itself.

biggame.org NOVEMBER 2014 | 21 CONSERVATION NEWS Straight-Horned Markhor Rebounds from Brink of Extinction Thanks to a 30-year community conservation program in the remote mountains of Pakistan, a key population of the straight- horned markhor has made a remarkable recovery to the point where the subspecies’ status is being reduced from endangered to threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The straight-horned markhor occurs in small, scattered populations mainly in the mountains of Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces, Pakistan. In 1984, a critical population in the Torghar Hills stood at just 200 individuals, a result of heavy artillery use and killing during periods of political unrest. Today, that same population numbers in excess of 3,500. The turnaround resulted directly from the Torghar Conservation Project, a community-controlled conservation program that uses limited trophy hunting as a means to raise critically needed funds for markhor conservation, while improving habitat for both markhor and domestic livestock and improving the economic conditions for the local tribal community. Revenue from this program has funded local game wardens, construction and maintenance of wells, irrigation channels, schools and other community infrastructure, and medical and veterinary supplies to the local community. The program’s success has served as an incentive for tribal groups in several other regions to explore similar markhor conservation projects. In recognition of the benefit that this conservation approach has had and can continue to have for the straight-horned markhor, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will also allow the import of certain sport-hunted straight-horned markhor trophies into the U.S., without a threatened species permit issued under the ESA. The trophies must be taken from established conservation programs that meet strict criteria. In particular, the populations of straight-horned markhor must be sufficiently large enough to sustain sport hunting, the populations must be stable or increasing, and regulatory authorities must have access to reliable population data. The conservation program must further demonstrate a benefit of hunting to both the local communities and the species, and the funds derived from sport hunting must be applied toward the community and the species.
