    Marlin eye candy

    Don't have any pics of my 1894 in .480 Ruger or my 336 in .35 Rem, but here's a .45-70.

    WTB .280 Ackley Improved Ammo (PLEASE)

    My Kimber shoots 280 Rem pretty respectably. Midway has some Remington branded ammo in stock right now.

    Carrying turkey decoys

    There were also a couple of brands of super collapsible decoys on sale at retailers recently. I've never used any of the specific ones they had on super sale, but they looked like decent options and way more packable.

    Carrying turkey decoys

    I wish you all the best sir. After 30 years of public land turkey hunting, I'll continue to use a scattergun. I can't imagine ever getting a public bird (at least here) in position with a bow.

    Carrying turkey decoys

    EXO 2800 (old) carries my chair and jakehouse blinds and some other small odds n ends. A Funky Chicken Jake slides into one of long side pockets. Stakes go in stretch side pocket. Avian hens (lay down and watcher) get deflated and put into one Avian bag which then gets strapped to the outside of...

    Anyone been bit by a rattlesnake in back country?

    Interesting on the coppers--didn't realize they were in Kansas. They aren't "supposed" to be in area I live, but we've seen a handful over the years. Baby mocs are a near dead ringer for copperheads. I've been super lucky. Some close calls. First trip out west I sat down on top of a butte to...

    First Bow Kill

    Can be tough sometimes to get good blood on a hog. All the fat can just about totally seal off the wound channel a lot of times. Always pays to watch those boogers till they disappear so you can try and start tracking there.

    Vapor Barrier Socks / Sweaty Cold Feet

    Geez I'll take a stab at answering your question. RBHdesign makes a lot of vapor barrier gear, including socks. I use the socks. But, vapor barrier is not going to make your feet dry--quite the opposite. Basically, they will make them sweat to a point and create a microclimate that allows them...

    Ball chafing

    Yikes--I used to do tree work and I'd have 3-4 synthetics with me daily to change out. Could not wear cotton. They'd be drenched and feeling like an easy bake oven in 10 minutes. Sams had been carrying Eddie Bauer branded synthetic shirts that are some of the most comfortable I've run across...

    Ball chafing

    Yeah--I live right by you somewhere. It's X Bionic for me here. I don't know how you stand cotton. Once they are wet with sweat, then it's your pants and wet all day long.

    Are we headed for another 2008?

    Oh we're not that close. They'll be lots of misery and tribulation before "end of days". I am glad my kid's grown and I'm not trying to rustle up formula. Had a hard enough time affording it nearly 30 years ago.

    Are we headed for another 2008?

    You can bet that will happen. Solves (theoretically) too many problems for government (i.e. the untaxed "grey market"). They won't be able to keep their dickskinners out of it. The only real barrier right now may just be optics. Thus,....the minister of truth.

    Are we headed for another 2008?

    FBN just reported ARMs have hit a 14 year demand high. 14 years--hmmm, what was 14 years ago? Oh yeah--it was 2008! If it was "just" ARM demand, maybe not such a big deal. But, the pressures are all over now. Government is going to do whatever it can to keep the housing market moving. Once it...

    Latest Corner Crossing Charges being dropped

    Even when (if) it does, it means nothing as to "corruption". Wildly different standards of proof. Quite normal to be responsible in a civil action when not found guilty in criminal proceeding. In many states, however, a guilty plea/verdict will prevent re-litigation by the defendant in a civil...

    Tell us what you think about E-bikes for hunting??

    You can convert most any bike into an ebike now. The equipment is readily available from many sources, including ebay. The local bike shop will convert my fat tire bike and install a 750 watt motor for around $1000.00--parts and labor. So, you don't have to pay "thousands" for an ebike today...

    "Sickening - How Big Pharma Broke American Health Care"

    More than "initially believed". Yuhp, still "practicing medicine". IMO, docs are, by and large, quacks--paying for second and third houses and spouses, constant new cars and toys for them and the trove of kids and newest model spouse. They don't spend any time with patients. No use for them...

    "Sickening - How Big Pharma Broke American Health Care"

    Well.....I love red meat / wild game, but I'm an O blood type. My wife and mom are both As, and red meat really messes with their digestive systems. They basically realized that before reading the Blood Type Diet, but it was revelatory to them to see that it was highly recommended to avoid it...
