    Anyone have problems doing strict carnivore?

    You bet. Good luck. There's a lot been said here on the difficulty of following many kinds of diets, and I agree with most of what's been said - I find it difficult to get good information, in part because there's so much out there, in part because a good part of it (i.e., coming from...

    Anyone have problems doing strict carnivore?

    It's in the book and she is definitely not without controversy, including claims of shoddy science and biased sample selections in her own right, but in the book I mentioned she includes a fairly long-term study, IIRC, done by two nordic doctors who did controlled research - using themselves -...

    In total agreement.

    Anyone have problems doing strict carnivore?

    Well, it's been rebranded and there have been some changes, but the renamed "Healthy Diet Pyramid" is still based on the original flawed science, imo.

    Anyone have problems doing strict carnivore?

    No specific thoughts as I've not tried it as a strict thing, though I have changed my approach over the years (when young, not only the paradigm "meat and animal fats are bad, grains are good," but the fact I was swimming up to 20K daily did demand a different diet). The Big Fat Surprise is a...

    Whitetail Processing - First Time

    Presuming it's skinned, I just use what I use to break down any other large animals - good cleaver (I have an F. Dick 4 lb), couple of good boning knives (I have many, but a flexible and rigid are good), and a meat saw (mine is 22". Even a hacksaw can work, though it is tough going because the...

    Winching/Vehicle extraction options, Ford Escape?

    OK thanks, Steve. I'd been thinking of just putting on some snow chains and calling it a day, so you've given quite a been to go on, much appreciated.

    Blaze merino wool beanie, good ear coverage, not Stormy Kromer

    Thanks, no, not decided yet. I just appreciated the thought that anything we can do to embarrass our kids with what we wear out in public, well,....lol. Ever try the Minus 33? Significantly cheaper, and again looking for on the move. But don't like to buy twice, if the FL is worth the high...

    Winching/Vehicle extraction options, Ford Escape?

    Yeah, I agree. Not ideal but been a rough year and have to go with what we have, next year promises to be better. Having gone back and forth to the UP of MIchigan more times than I care to remember, with plenty of near misses and the odd slip ups in white out conditions (including black ice at...

    Winching/Vehicle extraction options, Ford Escape?

    Unfortunately our current drive is a simple 2WD Ford Escape. I know the forest roads pretty well in N. WI (Chequamegon) and they are maintained enough so that I'm not too concerned with driving this go-kart up there this season. Getting a truck over the next year. That said, of course, we...

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

    I got my start early, by the time I was 7 or so (that's my memory of getting a Ruger Single-Six for Christmas, and taking hunter's safety with my dad), but hunting itself was on my own, chaparral jack rabbits with a Marlin Model '97, and some upland birds. I actually started big-game hunting...

    The One Gun Hunter

    I can't keep it to one, but I do have it to two - one for brush or timber out to 150 yards (Marlin 45-70 guide gun), the other for all else (Ruger Hawkeye .338 WM). I wanted to cover anything in N. America.
