    Potential move to Alaska

    If I were in your shoes I would be packed and leaving tomorrow. Worst case is you get up there and hate it and transfer back to Montana. Kick of a young marriage with an adventure!

    Any one use a Subaru as a hunting buggy

    I just put a small lift and AT tires on my Forester for this very reason, still manage about 22mpg city driving. I couldn’t justify the price of a new or used truck, as the Subaru is paid for. They are fully capable on logging roads and for some light off road, but you have to know your...

    Best Quiver

    A few years back I really wanted to buy a tight spot, but just couldn’t put down that kind of money. I went the cheap route and bought an Octane Deadlock Lite for about $50 to hold me over until I could afford the tight spot. Well it’s now eight years later and it’s actually been great. I...

    Ethics in hunting, the story of my once in a lifetime Buck....

    As a lowly Junior Manscaper with no meme skills I can add nothing to this solid gold thread. All I can do is thank the drama llama for making a terrible shot and then following that up with a solid nights sleep. I would also like to thank the WKR’s for being absolutely ruthless, best thread on...

    What would you guys do: shoplifters

    Despite how it made you feel you made the right choice not to intervene. Be a good witness, take a photo/video of the car and thief and provide it to the store employee or LE. This situation is a no win for you because of all the unknowns. First, depending on where you live even if they...

    Law enforcement in Colorado

    A few years back we got a transfer from the CO State Police. Great dude and our department is better for having him. But a guy willing to leave LE in CO to come to OR told me all I needed to know about being LE in CO. Also if you are considering this line of work, it is nothing like what you...

    How's everybody make a living

    At this point pretty much anywhere is better than OR. We have been racing CA and WA to the bottom and I think we’ve finally won. The wife and I have been looking at MT, SD, and WY. Had family move to TX earlier this year and they love it, but not sure we would like the humidity. Right now...

    Who else has caught the Rona?

    Working through the Covaids right now, overall it’s not bad for me. The first day my legs and back felt like they got beaten by a bag of hammers. Later that night I had the worst night sweats i’ve ever had. The next two days I had some sinus pressure, but was otherwise fine. My wife got...

    Didn’t Receive the Vaccine Today

    I could tell a personal story about my kid with autism and the MMR vaccine, but it’s way to long to type and there is a good chance no one else cares. The fact is no matter what I or anyone else says your mind and the mind of a lot of other people won’t chance, it’s just human nature to dig...

    Need new duty boots!

    Our K-9 unit got approved to use the Salomon Quest 4d boot. There is a “tactical” version that is all black. I’ve only been using them for a month or so, but so far I like them way better than the Danner’s I had been previously issued.

    Is it too late to think about changing careers and becoming a Game Warden or Deputy Sherriff at 54 years old?

    If I were in your shoes there is a 100% chance I would not get into law enforcement. I’m a LEO and love what I do, but I am seriously looking into another career. Ultimately, for me it comes down to the fact that the justice system as a whole is broken and not getting better. There is only...

    Selling a bow online questions

    I’ve bought and sold a bunch of bows on AT with no issues. I always take more than enough photos, be overly honest on the description, and be quick to reply to questions. I always post a price that includes the 3% paypal and shipping cost because I want my transaction to be as easy as possible...

    Defund the Police?

    It depends on the model. Our department uses both styles. I personally carry a Taser International X26p which has two cartridges, and after discharging the cartridge it needs to be dumped and replaced to be able to “air deploy” a second set of probes. There is a newer model, Taser 7 that has...

    Boredom, favorite Band / Song

    Can’t argue with any of the songs/bands listed, but my staple workout music is hands down Sabaton. They straight up kick you in the mouth with awesome music.

    KUIU Zipper repair

    I had a zipper break after a year of normal use. At that time they had a third party company fix it free of cost. Get ahold of customer service, they should take care of you.
