    Back surgery experience

    Just be realistic. It's a lot easier and more likely that P.T. will help to improve a disc herniation. The gelatinous disc has found a weakening and bulged out. You have to push it back in and P.T. can help that. I had repeat lumbar MRIs 2 years after my injury and they were both gone. The...

    How did you guys who had no one to teach you get into hunting?

    I had someone to teach me, my father and grandfather, but honestly even though they were "hunters" I wouldn't say that they had much knowledge about it. The fundamentals of shooting, how to field dress a deer, identify deer sign. That was about it. We did camp a lot and I enjoyed it...

    Grocery Bill?

    Family of 6. 9-18 yoa. Two oldest boys. We do Butcher Box for the organic chicken. We won’t eat non-organic chicken it’s simply disgusting. Besides that , lots of ground turkey, and elk. Everything is as low carb/keto friendly as my Wife can make it. We may eat out once a month if that...

    Back surgery experience

    I’ll echo some of ThorM465‘s comments. I’ll preface this by saying, do your own research and do a lot of it. Ultimately it’s your choice. My comments are not to be taken as medical advice. Exhaust all avenues before having surgery. I have 4 bulging discs and it took a solid 2.5 years to get...

    What's it worth? 2002 7.3 powerstroke with 3k (hit by tornado)

    Get it detailed, take great photos of it and all the damage, which all sounds cosmetic, and list it on “Bring A Trailer”. It doesn’t cost you a dime to list it as buyer pays the fees. You can even put a reserve price just in case. Guarantee you’ll get more than what you would have ever...

    Sam Fejes with Fejes Guide Service outside of Cordova, Alaska does both moose and Mtn goats. Fly up to the glacier for Mtn goat and then hunt the marshy bottoms from the glacier/mtns out to the coast for moose.

    Rangefinding Binos vs Rangefinder

    It's easier to steady a pair of range finding binos than it is to steady a solo range finder. Additionally it's one object you are taking into the field instead of two, so the weight is likely a wash and you might even be saving weight with a ranging bino set up. Some argue it takes less time...

    Which sleeping bag? Have it narrowed down to choices

    If you want the best bag made, skip the two you are deciding between and get a Western Mountaineering bag In your desired temp rating. The regular bags outer shell has the same if not higher water resistant coating than most tents rain flys. If you want added peace of mind, opt for the...

    US issues kill order for feral cows in New Mexico

    If you think wild horses aren’t getting a bullet these days you are misinformed. Granted it isn’t happening on state or government land but on private ranches it’s open season.

    Flying with Pelican 1750 or SKB Rifle Case?

    Agreed. I have both. Have flown on Alaska and United. No one has ever asked or challenged me on the over sized issue. No fees. I always packed it under 50lbs so not sure if being overweight and over sized would be the tipping point.

    Politics in high school sports

    You can’t change the coaches mind, and shouldn’t try to as a parent. It will only make matters worse. The ball is in your sons glove, if you will, and he has to be the one that makes decisions, speaks up, etc. Only thing as a parent that you can do is be supportive of your son. If moving or...

    Cramping…

    Back in the marathon Mtn bike racing days I would always carry a bottle filled with pickle juice. That in addition to an adequate electrolyte hydration drink mix cured all cramps. i have never cramped since.

    "Sell" me on your outdoors smart watch

    You don’t. I have had my Garmin Fenix 5 for going on 6 years now. Zero issues. Have only replaced the band once Still holds a charge as it did on day 1 of purchase. I had a Suunto prior. Liked it a lot for a “non-smart watch” but the bands and battery life were constantly needing replacement,

    PPO or HSA health account

    Not to get off topic a little, but talking insurance premiums. I have one of the BCBS’s HSA high deductible PPO plans. I am 46, wife and 4 kids. My monthly premiums are ~$2700/month. Not annually, per month. I have $3k/9k individual/family max deductibles. Sure,….. when I have met my...

    PPO or HSA health account

    This is exactly the way one gets the most out of their HSA. If you can afford to do it this way, maxing it out annually, invest it, and not touch it until after 65, and pay out of pocket for annual health care expenses.

    Household income/age at time of first guided sheep hunt

    Touché……I missed the “guided part”. May bad. You are likely correct.

    Household income/age at time of first guided sheep hunt

    IMO, what will significantly skew your "income data" is not accounting for "resident" vs "non-resident".
