    Has anyone experienced burn out due to shift work and night shift?

    I work in the control room at a power plant. Rotating schedule, 12 hour shifts. I'm 58 and its tough. The best advise I can give is stay physically fit as best you can. I can handle the screwed up night shift sleeping much better when I'm working out regularly. I'm going to try and power through...

    Favorite hand loads 7mm rem mag and 300wsm for elk

    Transporting elk hide?

    as a Taxidermist I would rather see the hide frozen or kept very cold. Dont let is float in a cooler full of water either keep dry as possible. Some think they know how to prep a skin for salting but its more work for the taxidermist if done wrong and could be bad if its done wrong and cause...

    Favorite 6.5 PRC bullet for elk?

    The norma bondstrike shoots good in my gun. Only one deer kill at this time but was a bang flop experience complete passthrough lungs where mush, under 100 yards. Im pushing them around 3050 with N565. At under 400 yards I wouldn't hesitate to use it on elk.

    Colorado taxidermist

    did he actually tell you he would touch base every two weeks? If I did that for each of my taxidermy customers I would never get any work done and out the door. Did he give any ideas as to turn around time when dropped off? most taxidermist that are any good at all are running a year to a year...
