    ISO Day hiking backpack

    I'd look at Hill People Gear. Made in USA. Junction (small) https://hillpeoplegear.com/Products/CategoryID/3/ProductID/128 Connor (not huge, but bigger and versatile if it needs to hold stuff outside) https://hillpeoplegear.com/Products/CategoryID/3/ProductID/134 Umlindi (for me, probably the...

    Introducing a puppy into the family with an older dog

    I've had 2 Doodles that were both birdy. I believe nature as far as disposition, trainability, reaction to bird scent, but exposure to birds has to happen. I've seen great pedigreed dogs have behavior problems. I've seen field "winning" trial dogs screw up hunts ranging too far, blowing out...

    How to catch an untrapable mouse.

    A single action 22 revolver with bird shot is a lot of fun. Scout camp last summer in Missouri, day 1, had my Kifaru Marauder partially zipped on my cot as I was hanging clothes. I zipped it, sat next to it, continued to organize life, felt the bag move. Unzipped it, a mouse scurried out...

    Introducing a puppy into the family with an older dog

    I don't buy that necessarily. Neither of my 2 Doodles were from hunting stock, 6wk pups loved a pheasant wing, and both retrieved doves, grouse too... My Golden Doodles were Mutts, by definition. Puppy mills and inbreeding certainly drive what you're describing though Kurt.... Sent from my...

    Introducing a puppy into the family with an older dog

    I do disposition tests on a whole litter of pups. The first is to have the whole bunch in a group and call them. The placement I look for is the middle of the group, independent but not oblivious. This approach would benefit the older dog too... I personally have had 2 bird dogs always through...

    Kifaru frame guidance

    Taller loads were more easily secured with the 26", but I wouldn't say I could carry more weight. I kept the 24" because it was more nimble, and carrying 100lbs isn't my use case mostly anyway. I can go twice as fast with 60lbs without the risk. Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk

    What do you want from your woman?

    1. Quit feeding the dog off of her plate 2. Quit buying her stuffed animals that she wants to shred and playing tug-o-war and keep away 3. Quit tying bows on and buying the dog outfits. I let her name her "Lola" (instead of "Butch") and conceded to Golden Doodle instead of some high powered...

    fish recipes

    I grew up catching more crappie, bass, bluegill, white bass and channel cat than I could eat. As an adult I moved to Colorado, but added Trout, Walleye, perch and Northern to the list. As a member of Knights of Columbus, I just finished my 3rd week frying cod, I don't make or buy the mix, but...

    Ever post while drinking?

    Oh my, that thread was perfect... Like a slow motion train colliding with a fully engulfed trash truck adjacent to a fireworks factories and petroleum refineries. But slowly... Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk

    Beware of a scammer

    PayPal has buyer protection. I venmo things like Scout dues, athletic fees for my kids, people I know. Maybe (probably?) I'm ignorant about Venmo, Zelle features and fee structure though... Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk

    Beware of a scammer

    That qualifies as mail fraud.... I over share contact information and (obviously) use my real name, and have been in all of the forums I use. I always G&S, and pay fees, if that's refused (and I've had sellers try to rationalize not sharing contact info or refusing G&S) I generally move...

    Beware of a scammer

    I'll believe that when I see it. That's the argument that scammers use. If it were to happen, (which I doubt it ever will) your original cost basis (which hasn't been mentioned) should offset against your sale price. Selling for less than purchase price (theoretically) would create deductions...

    Beware of a scammer

    Not true. Shipping with tracking eliminates this. Sharing the tracking number through PayPal is the way. Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk

    Shoulder Dislocation/Bankart Repair

    You can have repeated dislocation without a separated labrum, I did. After almost a year of not riding a 168cm snowboard on ice days, not climbing, not water skiing, not carrying a heavy pack, I lost mobility. I started doing squats, which meant I had to be able to hold a bar on my back...

    What was your first western hunt - especially if from East of the Mississippi

    I grew up just east of KC. Moved to Colorado in '96. First hunt was '96 OTC Colorado 2nd rifle. Public land. Tagged a 5x5 at noon day 1 3 miles in, 1,600' up. Did 4 trips hauling bone in quarters and meat on the shittiest garage sale external pack frame ever. Colorado has gone WAY downhill...

    Is Rokslide a Cult? Is Fishnet Form the RokLeader?

    You're wrong. Dog poo only sticks if you get it on you, and worms come in styrofoam cartons if you want your opinions ripped open... Sorry. I couldn't help it. No real offense intended... Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk
