    MEAT your maker products

    I bought a cheap slicer from them. It’s effective but not great, but it was cheap lol. It does ok with partly frozen meat don’t think it would work with fully thawed meat.

    Powering a chest freezer at a motel

    Sounds like you already got the answers you needed. I agree just take some extension cords and plug it in. I definitely would not install any new wiring to run a freezer unless it’s done by the dealer/manufacturer. Just speaking for someone who had their truck burn to the ground in their...

    Bicep tendonitis

    Never dealt with bicep tendonitis but have dealt with tricep. Had it in my left arm last year from working out with dumbbells and it took about 8 months to heal but my work is fairly physical as is my home life. As soon as it healed I developed the same injury in my right arm that hasn’t healed...

    How long do you let deer hang before processing?

    I haven’t hung one in about 10 years. Kill 5-10 a year and debone on the ground and pack out. All my meat gets processed into ground for burger or bacon or summer sausage. Big roasts I use for jerky or pastrami or chunk up for canning. Only meat I cook whole is backstrap or loins and those...

    WTS Wool Pants

    How do they fit? Are they baggy or tight? Are the pockets deep and useable? Can you compare the fit to a common brand pant? 30x32 could fit me…

    A health revolution brewing?

    Yep. I definitely don’t eat any less lol I eat a lot. I almost immediately lost a waist size and a couple pounds but I was already skinny. Went from a 32 waist to 30. Now it’s even harder to find clothes that fit…Losing weight was not at all my intention. Just wanted to be healthier and have...

    Carnivore Diet

    I recently switched to natural foods diet. We grow a big garden and lots of fruits and vegetables so I can’t give those up. There are so many delicious and medicinal fruits and vegetables and wild plants I just can’t understand giving those up unless you have some reaction from them. I also cut...

    Coffee alternatives? (not in the field) Celsius?

    I never could drink coffee without sugar. Then I switched to tea and cut out caffeine and sugar all together for a while. After about a year of that and working full time and 2 young kids I started back on coffee but found I didn’t need sugar anymore. My point is if you cut out sugar you will...

    A health revolution brewing?

    I had some health issues after Covid. Have since cut out bread, processed food, and sugar and am back on track. Our food is literally killing us in this country.

    Wildlife reintroduction - why only predators?

    WV has reintroduced or stocked deer, Turkey, bobwhite, and elk over the years that I know about. Never any predators-don’t think the public would stand for that. I have heard people say the state stocked everything from mt lion to wolves and coyotes to ladybugs but it’s all some kind of...

    ground black bear meat/fat ratio

    I always use pork butt with bear or venison. Usually about 80/20 with each but the last few bears I killed were all pretty lean. I wouldn’t like straight bear meat but that’s just me.

    Kuiu vs Mystery Ranch Packs

    Do you guys think there is a certain body type or build that fits better for MR vs Kuiu or is it just variable for different people? I like kuiu being lightweight but sounds like MR might carry better under heavy load. I am tall 6’2” and skinny just wondering if one might fit me better.

    Flagging Tape on Public Land

    I pull it down unless it’s obviously for administrative use. Forest Service rarely if ever removes flagging when they are done with it either.

    Suggestions on a pack

    I am looking for a good pack, mainly for everyday whitetail hunting with tree saddle/sticks and packing out in the mountains. I pack out a few deer a year and have never had a good pack and have apparently approached the age where better gear is needed lol. Top of my list is a kuiu 3600 mainly...

    Budget Trail Cameras that work

    IMO the problem with cheap cams is there is no consistency in quality. Within the same brand and model some work and some don’t. Few years ago I bought 5 cheap cams (can’t even remember what brand probably bushnell) and set them all up side by side to test them. 2 worked well 3 did not so I...
