    Any realtors? Question about the housing market

    Sell you house and rent at new location for a year or two. If prices continue to fall you could get way more for your money. I don’t think interest rates will continue to go up, may even fall. These are unknowns and may go the other. But renting will allow you to get more familiar with the area...

    Wyoming nonresident proposal

    I surmise that most of the hunters that I met last time I was hunting antelope can‘t or won’t pay these fees. While there are a lot that will they’re are way more that won’t. Hunting is becoming a rich man’s.

    Crystal Ball: Buy New or Wait for Used

    I got 0.0% financing from Ram a few months ago. I use to always buy used 20 - 30K vehicles. These days that doesn’t seem to be a bargain any more. Plus you miss out on new technology with used vehicle. Because of the safety package that came with my new Ram the insurance for my new truck was...

    Forums Are Dead!

    Wow, guy lacks a lot of self awareness. I find everything he said in the LRH link to be false. I stopped reloading 20+ years ago. Everything back then came from books, magazines or bullshitting at hunting clubs. Everything was personal, learned through trail and error. Today, forums and...

    Need advice

    100% truth right here. He‘ll be paying for a vehicle that will get very little use Initially. Boot camp 2 months, then sent to a school (hopefully) for a few months Or more. Then to a duty station which probably will be in the US but maybe not. Most places he‘s going he probably won’t want a...

    Cartridge for new hunter

    I would choose .270, get managed recoil loads if need be. No sure why people think shooting a smaller caliber ALWAYS make EVERYONE a more accurate shooter. Everyone will shoot a 22lr better than a .223? Not sure why that would be true. Shooting a .223 vs 7mm rem mag I can see the logic...

    Home Bulk Ice Maker

    Like I stated, use ice pick and chip down as needed. We use it in swordfish, mahi and wahoo. Trust me, in south Florida we know how to ice fish.

    Home Bulk Ice Maker

    I fill 1 gal. or 16 oz ziplock bags for freezer. Block ice last a lot longer than cubbed. I have an ice pick to break down blocks when needed. Pretty simple. Figure in electric costs is it really worth it? When you’re already have freezer running?

    Fat shaming guy update!

    Well done, it takes dedication to lose weight like that. You can’t out work a fork. Calorie counting is where its at. Cut out the junk, processed food & sugar. Drink WATER, amazing how many people consume useless calories through sugary drinks.

    Organizing gun case for flight?

    I replace foam with clothes. Always have ammo & gun in case. Never a problem. With gun, binoculars, ammo, knife and other stuff my case weights 30 lbs or so. So I move 15 lbs to gun case by replacing foam. This free’s up weight in check bag. May or may not need it.

    MBA and your experience

    Well it can’t hurt getting an MBA can it. I never got one. I‘ve worked with people that have them and didn’t seem to benefit from it. Almost everyone in my company upper management has one. It still comes down the drive, effort and ethics.

    Colonoscopy....

    I watched my uncle, a very proud and self reliant man, die from colon cancer over 25 years ago. What a horrible and painful way to go. It’s humiliating too lay in bed and have your wife clean you because you can’t get to the bathroom. I realize medicine & treatment has come a long way since but...

    Are you guys sick of tipping?

    Was in Australia many moons ago, no tipping there. Most of the service while dining was average or poor. I did feel like most people where going through the motions. Not saying that US system is better but seems at higher ends restaurants or pubs the services is better.
