Great to see some WI hunters on here—I’m west of you all in Black Earth. Tried my 1st CO muzzleloader hunt this fall—had a few close calls but did not fill my tag. I can’t wait to go back. I did however get a nice older buck my first sit out at the end of October. This made it so I got to do...
Looks like I’m Beekeeper#4 on the list. It’s getting harder to overwinter them and make a profit so I’m downsizing. It’s a great way to get hunting permission though!
CWD is hitting us hard in southern WI. We have huge deer herds in my neighborhood, but no one wants to shoot does. We went from almost no positives 10 years ago, to now about 1 in 3 are positive. I killed a buck during gun season that was the most disgusting excuse for an animal--I shot him at...
I just set up my Optima shooting Thors. I used their sizing pack and the .500 seemed to be right on with a clean barrel--it made perfectly etched rifle grooves on the bullet. After a shot or two it sure got tough to load them! On the other hand, they shoot awesome so I think I'm going to stick...

It's been at the Farm and Fleets in Southern Wisconsin for the last month--and a good price--about $47 a can. It was at Cabelas too but they jacked the price to $65, and the last time I checked it had all sold. It's been hiding in plain view at Farm and Fleet and noone seems to have noticed!
I just bought a pair of Schnee's Beartooth when they went on sale last month. These are my first high end pair of boots, and I must say that they're incredible. They fit perfectly, and on my first hike (5 miles) they already feel like they are broken in and ready for a hunting trip.
Thank you for what you do here! The Rokslide Classified section is one of the best I’ve seen. Unfortunately the scammers seem to be everywhere these days—have you seen all the fake ammo sale sites out there?
