    What do you do for a living?

    I pimp hose. Hose and fittings that is.

    All Time High Stock Market

    I watch the market and my 401k pretty closely. I have contributed the maximum amount every year in my 401k and it is still off 12% from the November 2021 highs. Seems strange to me. I need it to double one more time and I will be checking out of the workforce.

    Help me get over my fear

    I would suggest to try to make some new friends who are already into hunting. Let them take you under their wing and show you the ropes. It would really help shorten your learning curve and hunting with buddies is way more fun than hunting by yourself IMO.

    Selling a UTV/ATV online?

    I have sold all sorts of things on FB Marketplace including a ATV and SXS. Add a bunch of pictures to the add and ask a reasonable price and it will sell.

    I can't imagine life without my kids. I started late too but wouldn't change a thing.

    First lite furnace. Not as good as the kiln- come fight me

    The Furnace is excellent for sitting stationary in a stand when it is really cold outside. I use it for a mid-layer and it is awesome. It also comes in handy when we duck hunt later in January. It is an excellent piece but I recently bought a Sitka heavy weight hoody and I think it will give the...

    Son’s first shotgun

    I was in a similar situation a few years ago with my son. I bought a Mossberg 500 pump and it was garbage. I could not believe the poor quality. It was very hard to pump but I thought it just needed to be broken in. It never improved. I sold it and bought a Franchi semi-automatic and he loved...

    North Dakota Duck/Pheasant Combo

    I am looking to possibly take my son on a duck/pheasant combo hunt November 2024 with an outfitter. We do not need 5 star accommodations and chef prepared meals. Just looking for a solid, reputable operation. Does anyone have any recommendations?

    I have never had a bad experience with Midway. One of the best IMO.

    Legitimate benefits to lifting a vehicle?

    It really doesn't do much other than look better. I lifted one of my trucks and my buddy told me that it was going to change the geometry of the front end and make the front end parts wear out prematurely. I didn't really pay much attention to him but after only about 40,000 miles I had to spend...

    Finding Elk vs Killing Elk

    If it were me, I would make my move in the afternoon and be waiting for them to show up in a meadow after having watched them from afar the evening before. I personally would not go into their bedroom and take a chance on buggering them and have them run to the next county never to be seen again.

    Can't Shoot A Big Bull If You Shoot A Small One First!

    Congrats on a great bull. He has serious mass and some really long main beams! Going to look good on your wall and you will never forget that afternoon as long as you live.

    Bugle Report

    Best bugling I've heard for the first week of archery in N CO. Heard bugling every day, morning and evening.

    WTF Kuiu, waterfowl?

    Come to Virginia/NC and see for yourself. I am sure Sitka isn't complaining about their $300 jackets being worn as fashion statements. I bet it is common throughout most of the south.

    WTF Kuiu, waterfowl?

    There are a lot of waterfowl hunters in this country and this may do very well. Sitka is a huge player in this market. Also, apparently wearing waterfowl gear is cool with teens/early 20's as I see kids wearing Banded, Drake, Sitka jackets all the time and many of them do not even hunt ducks. I...

    Ground blind over water hole

    It really depends on how much water is available in the area. I hunt an arid area where water sources are very limited and hunting over water is very effective. The elk usually come to water in the mornings and afternoons. Sometimes they will water before daylight in the mornings so the...

    Preferred 7mm bullets for elk

    I took my son on a mule deer hunt last year and the outfitters all used 180 grain Bergers for elk & deer. All their rifles were set up out to 1000 yards. They swear by the Bergers.

    Hung up on bino power: 8 vs 10

    I like my 10X and use them most of the time. When in big, open country I bring along my 12X. The 10X are perfect all around for me.

    Virginia Employment

    If I were you, I would not move near Fredericksburg. Too much traffic and it is now basically turned into the outer part of Northern VA which I would avoid at all costs. There are nicer areas outside of Richmond. Not sure if you have considered the Tidewater area but there are lots of defense...
