    Talk to your children :(

    Yeah talking with kids seems to get overlooked. I honestly never had a lot of real talks with my folks in my teen years. I had some serious talks with my 15yo step son over the last few weeks. Its not easy

    ‘94 f250 leaf spring mount replacement

    This.. The ole hammer test can tell you how bad it is, but its highly possible to still have a good frame. If the suspension has never been replaced, expect to use a torch and break some stuff. Hope you have a welder cuz you might need one. Buy new Ubolts since you gotta take those off anyway...

    Thursday Boots

    They're good. I have a pair. They are sized larger than average. I'm a 12 and ended up with an 11. I'm fairly certain they advertise it that way too. My biggest complaint is that the soles are a bit soft. I ran down the heal on mine very quickly, but caught it before i damaged the riser...

    Are lightweight baselayer bottoms a waste?

    This is my first year wearing a lightweight merino baselayer. Usually i just wear boxers but I bought some 3/4 legnth FL wick pants/leggings. I was a little warm hiking on a 70 degree day but it wasn't hateful enough to not do it again. It worked well for sweat management so the pants weren't...

    A health revolution brewing?

    Quoted for truth There is probably a little bit of crossover with their work and Dr. Zach Bush. But all these chemicals are killing everyone very slowly. Gut Microbiome is a determinate factor for every facet of health from mental to physical. Plastics and chemical additives in food and ag...

    Are you taking this bet?

    If you've never shot a 170 class deer, then you shouldn't take that bet. Judging in the field is harder than most realize. I also don't have enough western hunting under belt to know if thats a bet worth taking

    Tripod head recommendations

    I've used Sirui and Really Right Stuff fluid ballheads. but only for rifle shooting. I think if you set the pretension they're pretty great. I know a lot of people seem to like the pan head with the lever but I feel like a fluid ballhead will be smoother and more stable

    Deer Rock Knives

    All these knife threads be going on here and there hasn't been a thread dedicated to Deer Rock yet so I'm starting one. I found out about them from the knive pron thread we have going. When I asked @Slalomnorth if he had any ready to ship he said "I'm about a year out but can save you spot...

    Dang it Dudley!

    Dudley actually has multiple videos covering form and technique. He seems to redo a video on something every 2 years. Dud seems really committed to getting people shooting with good form and knows that if someone sees a 5 or 6 year old video, they'll skip it in favor of a 3-9month old video.

    Colorado Residents
