    Over Priced Things That Shouldn't Be?

    But a good woman? Priceless.

    Tent versus Hammock

    I will switch between tent and hammock depending on the trip, both have their place. For me, hammocks are far, far more comfortable. And as you suggested, as long as there are suitable trees, they are fantastic in otherwise marginal spots. I use a warbonnet blackbird xlc. With a topquilt and...

    Has your dog been injured?

    Now 12, my dog has had all sorts of misadventures throughout his life, from porkys to yellowjacket attacks to domestic dog fights to cut-up foot pads from broken glass. I love his "rub some dirt on it and get me back in the game" attitude. One thing I hate though? Ticks. Tickborne diseases have...

    Gas Vehicles - Are you concerned new Biden Admin EPA regulations on gas vehicle emissions will restrict or negatively impact your ability to hunt?

    I fully expect my 2nd generation tundra will still be alive and kicking beyond 2032. By then I'll probably need a second job, given its bad habit of burning through dead dinosaurs.

    April 8th Eclipse

    @Reburn, those are great shots. I was in the zone of totality and I gotta say, it was quite spectacular. Very glad I saw it. My wife kept saying "God, do we live in an amazing world." Can't argue with that.

    Want a canoe, know nothing about them

    Will you be solo? Portaging much? Any flatwater? Price range? I’d personally avoid aluminum and rotomolded plastic unless you’re only canoeing once in a blue moon. Yes, it’s practically bombproof, but it’s also super heavy and incredibly awkward to lug around, especially if you’re toting a...

    Which impact driver or wrench for using lags with tents?

    Sloth or apathy, I’m not sure which.

    Which impact driver or wrench for using lags with tents?

    What are you finding sufficient for driving and removing lags in frozen and flinty ground? My crappy 1/4" impact driver is about dead. I keep intending to switch over to using lags with my tents, and so I want to replace it with something that has enough torque for this. This use in mind, will...

    Drinking Nothing but Water for a Full Year

    Good on you. I've found challenges like this are great for developing mental strength that you can then apply to other areas of your life. Similarly (but less restrictive), I essentially cut out soda pop two years ago, going from one can per day to about three cans per year. Just a small...

    Barbers

    Glad to see some of you still have real barbershops in your towns. Ours is long gone. Good memories. Now the only local option is $35 at a salon. Tried it, and it was so mediocre I now cut my own (and my son’s)

    What’s always in your truck/vehicle?

    X100. Two trucks ago I had the mechanism seize up with rust. What a PITA.

    What’s always in your truck/vehicle?

    See, this is what my old Tacoma looked like back in the day. But with a sizer of pbr tallboys instead of the champagne of beers

    What’s always in your truck/vehicle?

    Simple question. What items live in your vehicle at all times? How do you keep them organized? I can trash a truck like nobodys business, but I like my current one and I’m trying to not junk it up. My goal is to get all my stuff into to one standard-sized daypack (except my jack—I hate oem...

    Your deer rifle--why'd you choose .243 or 6.5 CM?

    Yeah, was pleased to see that the T3x 243 is now a 1:8. That and the 22.4" bbl is a pretty compelling package.
