I wouldn't do much different. Rockchucker combo kit treated me well.
As far os the shotgun reloading, I would like to sell that Dillon SL900 12-gauge system I have. I don't use that nearly as much as I thought I would. Traded a guy a Knight UL ML for it. Wish I had kept the ML at this point.
I put my entire property into a conservation. Saves me a couple grand a year. Anything I don't have to pay to the govt is a win by me...
Damn property taxes were still $4500 this year.
I’ve never bought dry ice in my life. So none I guess. We just run to town and get ice and celebrate our kill at the local eatery.
Last year we almost became alcoholics in Colorado over the course of one week.
The guy has a pretty tight knit (and more importantly tight lipped) group of guys he hunts with from my understanding. Don't forget not all alpine country is public ground....
Cutting back drastically on alcohol and quitting tobacco was a huge savings for my family. I don’t remember the last time we bought meat and we also rarely eat out.
The only thing that puts a Tikka slightly above a low-grade Savage is the fact that at least the Tikka doesn't rust within 30 seconds of getting a drop of rain on it.....
Flame away. lol
In Ontario, have found that if the temp gets above 50 degrees for a daytime high, you're going to run into trouble outside of the early morning and late evening hours.
When you compare yourself to others on the internet (who always appear to be just ahead of you financially) just keep in mind that most of those people are liars…..and they are broke.
I never had any issues but my Grandpa started his Dodge one time at the PA game lands parking lot one cold fall day and someone's housecat had crawled up inside of his fan shroud to stay warm.... He cleaned cat fur out of that truck till the day he sold it.
The 90's were the best years for bowhunting.
Crossbows were not allowed in 95% of archery seasons and most people had the attitude that if you were using a crossbow that you were a handicap.
Now, bow season is a freaking free-for-all.
Followed up by a dipshit comment telling a guy to check his zero and get back to us. lol
What a brilliant suggestion that I’m sure the guy never considered until he came across your stroke of genius post.
I should have told him to just huntharder.
