    Quitting Alcohol

    BTDT. It's been almost 17 years for me. If you know you have a problem and REALLY want to fix it, do what ZAP says and seek out AA. Get a sponsor and do the 12 steps. If you do it right, your pride will take a beating and you will be humbled, but in the end life is so much better for you and the...

    OTC Hunt - September 4 - 12

    This late in the year I think you're stuck with Whitetails. A handful of states have September 1 openers for archery, but most of the southern states would not be high on my personal must do list in early September due to the heat and humidity. Look into ND. I think their WT bow licenses are...

    Selfbow Build

    That's a nice looking bow. I was gifted one years ago and even shot a little doe with it. That pretty yellow wood will naturally darken to a beautiful dark tea color over time.

    Backcountry Back pack White tail Bow Hunt

    That's because we're not within a 1/4 mile of the road. ;) This one was killed on the Susquehannock SF about 2 miles as the crow flies from the nearest road. 99% of the hunters don't want to drag a deer that far and packing out is a foreign concept to the locals, which is just fine with me.

    Does a cot help side sleepers

    I'll throw in my $.02 here. 100 % side sleeper here too. Have you experimented with how much air you put in your air mattress? I found for backpacking I would wake up with hip pain if the pad was too stiff. the problem was with a 2" air mattress, if I let enough air out to be comfortable, my...

    Anyone else successful in the Utah Any Bull Rodeo today?

    WAG on my part, but point creep in every draw, the fact that Canada is still closed to US hunters, and the late sale date after all the draws are done makes it a perfect storm. This was my first year applying in Utah but I have friends that hunt there every year they can. They clued me in on...

    Anyone else successful in the Utah Any Bull Rodeo today?

    I started trying to get in around about an hour before the tags went on sale and was about 3000 in the que. Long story short I got in and bought my tag at about 11:50 Mountain time. the system said there were 4527 tags available at that point, so ~ 13000 tags sold in under 2 hours if their...

    recommended stove pipe length for Cimarron?

    I'm getting a Silvertip but may need to upgrade to a Cimarron in the future. I didn't see on SO's site what the recommended pipe length is for the Cimarron or the Silvertip? Also, I realize it would be long for the Silvertip, but is there any reason it would not work for both? If I can avoid...

    Effective, cheap blunts

    If you go to a hobby store you can get the spring wire they use for balsa wood airplanes to make your own judos also. We've also added old Bear bleeder blades to make very effective rabbit heads.
