    Need to vent

    Hey Man ... we have all gone through these stretches where the crap hat does not seem big enough. Good that you got your dog fixed, you will have something positive focusing how return to him to health. At the end of the day, we choose how we see things ... something breaks as another obstacle...

    Gun safe and contractors.... ?

    Check the online state court history for the person doing the work and their company. Hire reputable companies and ask for some local references. As stated above, always leary with a lowed priced quote. AS the cost to fix can make it more to do it right the first time.

    .300 WIN MAG Ammo Advice

    Have had very good results with the Federal Power Shoks out to 250+ yards for my 300 WIN MAG & 30-06. A good affordable round that you can shoot alot for practice & sighting to insure you are comfortable with your set-up. I will blow through a box of fusions when first shooting early just to...

    Cold season gloves

    What type of hunting ... bow/gun, stand/stalking? What temps, wind and moisture? I never wear matching gloves or mittens as one hand is trigger ready and one is holding the weapon stock or grip. That means one is protected and and one is exposed. With a mitten on an exposed hand you can add a...

    What'd you forget?

    Forgot my safety harness strap for my hang-on stand. That was a long nervous sit. The best one was half way up to deer for a week of hunting, going over my mental checklist, I realized I forgot both of my rifles ... turned around to pick them up as I assumed I might need them.

    How much to tip

    Clear that you know nothing about many service industries such as restaurants. They don't get a salary. They are paid hourly about a 30-40% of minimum wage and most of their income is from tips. This is what motivates the servers to excel at their jobs. Tips have to be reported as income so they...

    Why no love for the Ruger Hawkeye?

    Have a Ruger Hawkeye M77 in .308 for over 10 years now. Compact rifle for when I need to carry for a while and very accurate. Have shot many deer with it out to 250 yards. Now also have a Ruger Hawkeye Guide gun in 300 WIN MAG. Same as above very reliable 3" groups out to 200 yards. Only...

    One other item would be Benadryl antihistamine for bee stings or other allergic reactions. Once field dressed a deer that had been in poison sumac. Not a lot of fun.

    AK Moose prep pics

    Good kit. Couple other items to consider, they are small and would not add much weight ... A fresnel lens & tweezers for slivers. The below fresnel is a credit card size ...

    Anyone have a Canadian moose hunt booked for 2020

    Still waiting to see what the Canadian Govt does as we approach the current restricted travel date of Aug 21st. Looking at the current restrictions, see link below, all current travelers into Canada must quarantined for 14 days upon entry. How is that going to work if hunters are allowed in...

    Who are Kifaru’s new owners?

    That's good to hear. I was just starting to look into their products and found they were sold. have heard lots of good things about their products, hope they continue with the same biz model. Quality is hard to find.

    Who are Kifaru’s new owners?

    Buy-outs of innovative niche companies who serve a very unique audience who are willing to pay for value never go well. Go from 3 stitch to 2, why can't we use a lesser zipper style, if we increase units sold by reducing cost can we get materials made overseas, etc, etc. Ownership increases...

    Kuiu DCS Guide Jacket

    They definitely are at least one size smaller than advertised. Once you receive and want to return, they have a pretty simple return process and include a return shipping label. Make sure you keep all tags, etc. intact.

    Anyone have a Canadian moose hunt booked for 2020

    Spoke to my guide yesterday. They are hoping that a covid negative test exemption will be put in place for entry. Scheduled for 1st week in Oct to Alberta. Guide said he will roll $$ over to 2021. He is not real optimistic.
