    T booster at 65+?

    Following this with much interest. I recently retired and as an old guy, just turned 66 this week, working on losing weight and getting back into better shape in general and for hunting. A lot to think about and good reminders. I forgot one of the basics and that was getting enough sleep. So...

    Carrying a pistol while scouting

    The comments against carrying while scouting, hiking or hunting is a bit surprising. I always carry a pistol with me unless I have a rife along. Even out for just a hike on a recreational trail. As others have said, its not just the four legged animals to worry about, plenty of 2 legged ones...

    First Pronghorn Hunt DIY

    Ruger American Predator vs. the Savage Axis vs. the Mossberg Patriot

    I was recently researching this same topic. The Tikka is certainly a notch above the others, but it is also significantly more expensive in my opinion. Ruger, Savage, Mossberg, etc there is a group of rifles in that lower price range, that are all similar, each has its pros and cons. I went...

    Kodiak canvas beware

    All I can speak of my recent experience with Kodiak Canvas Tents. I chose to order from Competitive Advantage Products, an authorized rep for Kodiak. Located in Utah, same as Kodiak. Cabela's ordering and inventory system was not working for me a the time. My order was processed and shipped...

    Lava Ridge Wind Project - Wasting 76,000 acres in Idaho.

    I agree that Wind energy is a failed product and can not stand alone with out government subsidies. Here is a thought. Are there tribal lands involved, either under direct ownership or that had a historical significance? Even any local tribal communities would certainly have influence. The...

    Fingers crossed! So far no issues or complaints. I just took delivery of a new Kodiak Flex Bow 10X14. The sales depart communications were good, shipping was good and the tent canvas was really nicely stitched and all seems look great. No parts missing, everything went together as it is...
