    Long Range Lead Slinging Story on Meateater Podcast

    Everyone blaming the weapon is so stupid. For the most part, the same guys wounding stuff with bows are the same ones wounding stuff with guns. They are just doing it in a different season. The fact of the matter is that some people just can’t help but “pull the trigger”. This kid took several...

    Quitting Alcohol

    I think the problem is that most people don’t realize THEY have a problem. I’ve told people that I don’t drink and had them say “that’s a shame that you can’t handle it” while drinking several bottles of wine a week and acting like that’s the way to live life. I’ve also had coworkers tell me...

    Quitting Alcohol

    I’m a year and a half sober now and it’s one of the best things I’ve done for myself. I’m to the point now where I don’t even think about it anymore. I drink ginger ale at get togethers and it’s not a big deal for me. Moderation never worked for me. I don’t have the self control to limit myself...

    Kid on an Extended Hunt

    There’s no way I would do that. My son (9) has been on a two night backpack trip, killed his first elk last year, was with me on a bear kill, and goes car camping pretty regularly. I would never try to take him on a 10 day backpack elk hunt. The list of issues I foresee is very long. Kids have...

    Antlerless Hunting - Cows w/ calves, Does w/ fawns...

    I’ve shot fawns,calves, cows with calves, does with fawns, ewes with lambs. A friend killed a ewe with a fully developed lamb inside. It probably would have been born that week. I took a kid on a youth Barbary sheep hunt where they were only allowed to kill ewes. We got in range of a really...

    Kids First Knife

    I went with a folding knife for my son. I got him a super cheap one when he was 7 as a test. He didn’t cause any major problems with it and he still has it. He used it to help skin his elk. This year for his 9th birthday I got him a nicer one. He really thought the saw and can opener were cool...

    Hornady Bore Driver Eld-X Range Report

    I’ve been looking at those pretty hard. Powerbelts shoot great for me but I don’t want to use them on elk. I’ve been playing with no excuses 420s and I can’t get them to shoot consistently. I really want to try some of the lead bore loks but they are impossible to find. The eldx may be worth...

    What do you all do to fight the ticks during spring

    Spray down your clothes with permethrin. I just spent two weeks in the South Georgia woods without a single tick. Almost everyone I was with had to pull off a few.

    Can holdover be more accurate than dialing in a hunting scope?

    I don’t understand how this is even a discussion. I can dial a knob a few clicks faster than I can count hash marks in a scope. The whole system around aiming at the bottom 1/4 or holding top of the back or whatever probably works fine when you mostly shoot the same type of animals all the...

    Camping in a Softopper

    I like mine a lot. I needed to be able to haul dirt bikes in the bed. If not for that, I would rather have a hard topper. All the possible negatives (back flap being hard to open and the wind blowing it closed on you, no ventilation with bug protection, not very good visibility out the back when...

    Colorado Springs

    I don’t know if you can but I’d look into Holloman. I live in the mountains about an hour away. NM is kind of a trashy state but at least it’s not trashy AND insanely expensive like CO. My family from the springs just came to visit and they couldn’t believe how much more clean the Walmart is...

    The quest for the right mid weight pants

    I just buy attacks a size up and take the waist in. It’s not ideal but it helps with the skinny thighs.

    Mike Tyson VS Jake Paul

    Doesn’t look like he’s lost much? Maybe go back and watch some of his fights from when he was in his prime. He’s a 60 year old man now. It’s almost not the same person. Thus Jake Paul is actually interested in a fight.

    “Backfire” hunting challenge fail

    Shooting prone off a pack is probably my most common position. A very close second would be off a tripod.
