    WTS/WTT Be Careful

    I know it's considered taboo to divulge personal information over the internet, but when I'm buying or selling on one of these forums, I always refer people to my professional webpage so they can ensure that I'm legit. On sites such as here where I don't frequent as often, I refer them to sites...

    Vacuum sealing burger bags

    I usually vacuum seal my burger, but I had a processor put some bacon burger into his own bags rather than giving it to me in bulk, so I actually sealed the tubes themselves using a large bag. Overkill? Probably. Bacon burger doesn't last too long anyway...

    Dishonest taxidermist

    I had a taxidermist pass away while my mount was in their care. The estate lawyers advised my that I would have access to their workshop for a one-week period, albeit along with everyone else. I guess I wasn't fast enough, because somebody grabbed my mount. I now have a steelhead on the wall of...

    Need a new truck, what’s good?

    My last few F150 have gotten to >200K miles. In fact, when I bought my 2019, I put new belts and did a tuneup on my 2010 and gave it to a buddy's girlfriend's son, since he was in a band and needed a way to haul his gear around - and the truck had a Leer cap on it (don't get me started on caps...

    Counter tops?

    Interestingly enough, this isn't limited to kitchen counters. My lab at a major medical research university was recently remodeled, and I swear there's a single 90-yr old guy in Northern Saskatchewan who fabricates lab bench tops. Or so it seemed, with a six month wait time. And I won't go into...

    Fly fishing

    A decent 4-piece 4 weight rod with an aluminum case and a Ross reel will allow you to fish mountain lakes and streams equally. You should cast a few rods to figure out which brand you prefer, but don't feel the need to spend over $250. The Echo Carbon XL, Redington Classic Trout, or Orvis...

    When are you all starting your scouting?

    I will be watering fruit trees that were newly planted this spring...no rain for the past two weeks, despite almost daily promises of strong thunderstorms...and I will have my spotting scope and a few trail cameras with me to hang.

    I've got 20 acres in upstate ny, what would you suggest to improve it?

    I own several 50 acre parcels in Western NY, and as stated access is your number one priority. I can't speak much to hunting pressure, as the reason I purchased is have a place for my friends to hunt (with me). We do kill decent bucks nearly every year, but my definition of decent is 140+ and...

    First Lite developing competitor for Sitka Ambient?

    I'm simply astounded at the nuances that distinguish different pieces. We are lucky to be able to donate so much money to camo manufacturers lol...a phenotype that I possess, too! How great would it have been to have figured out that camo was going to be a boutique sector back before Realtree...

    Serrated or Straight Edge Broadheads ?

    I'm shooting Stingers and have killed deer with both smooth and serrated. I don't see much difference, practically speaking.

    IADNR bans cell cam "scouting" during hunting season

    I think there's a huge difference between public land cameras out west and back 40 cameras where I live in the NE. I do know of folks who target and kill huge deer, but the acreage they're surveying is relatively small, and there are generally other hunters who are aware of big bucks in the...

    Moultrie Mobile releases Edge Pro for 2023–review in progress

    I ran an Edge and Edge Pro this past season. The Edge was fine, albeit slow to send pictures. I'd walk past and sometimes it would be 20s other times an hour before they showed up. The images were okay at best. The Edge Pro provided better images, but had issues and needed to be returned. It...
