    One leg shorter than the other

    Agree to disagree. 50% of the population is walking around with a leg length discrepancy that have absolutely no pain. People don’t realize how many “abnormal” findings there are in the population. People with a leg length discrepancy have no higher rate of back pain than people who do, thats...

    One leg shorter than the other

    Or more than likely based on his body mechanics and the nature of the break that was not an option. If you believe that is the cause; the best bet is to go to a cobbler or someone that can install a thicker midsole. A heel lift can only fix so much. Our bodies are not that fragile in terms...

    Rooster came out pretty well!

    That's not a bad idea! It'll be going on an old Ford tailgate we have on the wall, but that could be a nice addition below it.

    Rooster came out pretty well!

    I got my WI rooster from December 2022 back this week. Turned out pretty good I think, what do guys think? I’ve shot 200 pheasants over my golden, but this one crossed all the boxes for the most part of what I wanted (plan to get one over each dog mounted). Color was ok, shot around home on a...

    AZ app question

    That's correct, if you do sheep/deer as well you can get away with buying licenses every 2/3 years and it works fine, I've been doing it for 10 years. If you're just doing elk you'll be able to just do every other year.

    Shoulder Dislocation/Bankart Repair

    Game-Ready's are great, I'm assuming you're renting one. 4-5x/day at 20 minutes a pop after surgery, start with min compression and go up to mod at some point (no need for high). It works well if you save some old yogurt or cool whip containers and freeze several blocks of ice. It's easier...

    Shoulder Dislocation/Bankart Repair

    Another thing to keep in mind that the surgery isn't 100% either. With you no longer playing football etc the risk of another dislocation is considerably lower after the surgery, but just off the top of my head I can think of 3 different football/wrestlers who had it done and ended up having it...

    Shoulder Dislocation/Bankart Repair

    If you're just getting subluxations for the most part and not a ton of pain if it were me I'd likely pass on surgery, but only you know the extent of the subluxations. A little slippage is fine, but feeling unstable and it's about to pop out is a different animal. I'm a PT, I treat a ton of...

    WY GEN $2K Raghorns you shooting?

    I chased a 350 on a gen tag several miles one year and had him within 60 yards several times. It didn't work out. 2 days later I called a rag into 7 yards screaming in my face and I killed him, and I had absolutely no reservations about it. I should draw again here shortly, and I may change...

    Barrel just blew up

    Woofta that could’ve been a lot worse. I’ve had it happen but 100x worse. Dog was birdy and I was following and stepped in a foxhole. End of the barrel must’ve hit a chunk of mud and a pheasant got up and I pulled and fired. Sounded like a muted trumpet. Completely my fault, but I have a hard...

    Boss shotgun shells?

    Idk I’ve been shooting either the #5 or #4s 3” for pheasants the last 5 years and I’ve never had a problem with them misfiring. It’s maybe not as good as lead but I hunt enough WPAs where I don’t want to F with switching shells or vests. I hunt pheasants 95% of the time and if I have time to...

    Collar transmitters - 3 big buttons?

    Alpha 100 will fit your bill just fine, large buttons that are easy to find and there is 3 of them that can be customized. I only use tone and stim but vibrate is easy to add as well. Or multiple dogs it works too.

    2023 Bird and Dog pics

    Up to 21 on the year split between WI and SD. Been having a blast with my boy around home and he tagged along in SD. Spent a lot of time picking beans while I worked sloughs with the pup, were each getting a little grayer every year.

    Let's talk money. Budgets. Life.

    If you safely use ccs the easiest way to budget in my opinion is use something like an app like mint. If automatically breaks what you’re spending into categories so you’ll have a better idea as to what you can get rid of and what you really need. There are a few different ones but we use mint...

    Sublette Co. Pinedale, WY 90s.......bears?

    I've spent a few weeks in there in the last few years, I just carry bear spray and have a 44 at camp. I've never seen any grizz sign, have seen a couple black bears, we practice bear safety and generally never worry. Had a couple dudes ride by our camp a couple times telling us how they see...

    How long do you ice age?

    My group bought a refrigerated trailer partly for this purpose. I hung my elk for 12 days this year and it worked great. I’ll add a track system at some point to make hanging easier. Even better though is it has taps so we can get the full effect at deer camp 😬

    Sold Cimarron, full nest, carbon pole, liteoutdoors stove

    Sorry it’s a full liner; not nest!!!. I’ve used it on 2 backpack hunts and I bought it used. No burn holes that I’m aware of, nest hasn’t been used. Would like to keep all together. We just ended up using the Redcliff a little more. 850$ TYd and you pay PayPal fees.

    Group Hunting…. Who gets to shoot?

    For archery we switch shooter for each encounter. We’ve done opposite days but it seems someone gets screwed if they turn off a day. Generally it’s clear that we have or haven’t had an interaction and on to the next. It’s worked for us. But generally we split up and cover more ground and every...

    your good (or not so good) customer service interactions of late

    Vapor-Trail My Pro-V rest developed a small crack in it (6 years old, well out or warranty). Gave them a call and they sent me a brand new site for 35$'s and it retails for 180$, popped the new one on and I'm shooting again. Montana Black Gold Had a pin break, sent me a new one immediately...

    When do you eat your "big meal" of the day

    if I’m packed in we generally eat pretty light throughout the day and eat our big meal when we get back. I don’t mind an extra 15 minutes to unwind a bit and eat. Truck camping we also eat big when we get back but keep it pretty simple with steak sandwiches or some actual food, one decent...
