    Standing while glassing

    I sit 99% of the time and use my binos 99% of the time. The spotter only comes out when I need to verify something that looks like a deer or try to put antlers on a deer that I spot a ways off. I currently have an angled spotting scope but I really do not like it. As herinaz mentioned, it...

    Kids

    My Grandmother once told me that if you wait until you are ready, then you will never have kids. As long as you are committed to be a father for life, then don't wait. Lean as you go like the rest of us. Do you have a wife that wants children as well? Kind of an important part of the equation.

    Colorado Elk 4th Season Rifle

    We are headed to Colorado for Thanksgiving so I figured we might as well get a 4th season Elk tag for my son (much more affordable for youth as NR). I imagine that there are not many elk in the unit we will be in considering there are still leftover tags for the hunt. We have the advantage of...

    Quitting Alcohol

    I quit nicotine as well (years before alcohol) and the mental battle was certainly more difficult. The ill effects of nicotine use are not as readily apparent as those from alcohol…until one day they remove half your jaw (luckily I quit before this happened).

    Who hunts alone?

    I have hunted alone 99% of the time. Day trips only, but my wife never really liked the idea of me being out alone. I do not have an inreach. Last year my son turned old enough to start hunting so he has been going with me (we actually mostly hunted his tag last year). Being responsible for...

    What is this guy shooting?

    She used the exact words that were provided to her by a poster here. Let's give her a break, geez. "Investigators identified, located, and interviewed the irresponsible gun owner, who is apparently shooting incendiary shells from a 12-gauge semiautomatic tactical shotgun with an extended...

    Quitting Alcohol

    This thread pushed me over the edge to give up drinking. I am also at 4 months sober and agree that I cannot think of any reason to go back. I will admit that nothing has noticeably changed for the better, but I need to constantly remind myself of all the little ways alcohol was robbing me...
