    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    I'm holding ITRM @ 1.58 from back in spring. I suck at this. Sincerely.

    Debt help

    One thing about Dave Ramsey is that he uses absurdly high assumed % returns on investment when he runs his hypothetical scenarios to illustrate principles. I agree with a lot of his principles, but 12% ROI? Really? Sign me up!

    Vaccine?

    A wise man once said, "don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things."

    What offset bracket is this? Also thoughts on crossover?

    I've been using the 1233 Crossover stab for the past three seasons. It's excellent. I really appreciate the extendibility for longer range shots.

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    I can't think of anything I'm less concerned about than making too much money.

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    GTE appears to be rising from the ashes. I need it to rise a lot more (.60) before that bag is unloaded.

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    I'd been sitting on IDEX at 1.35 for a few months, holding a substantial bag. Thankfully I was able to sell it yesterday for 2.65 before it rocketed up to 3.85 in pre-market this morning. I don't have to carry the burden of obscene profits. That sort of thing can weigh heavily on a guy.

    Option Archery Peep

    I ordered one. For $23.38 shipped, if I'm not thrilled with it I'm holding you personally responsible, @Zac.

    Peep Hell

    I'm intrigued. Might have to try this when I swap out strings (which I'll have to do after this season). Thanks for the link.

    Peep Hell

    It's a real pain in the tail, but you can also shuffle strands between the two bundles that constitute the string. This will incrementally rotate the peep relative to the string. Fair warning.. it doesn't always exactly obey the expected result, hence, it can be a hassle. But once it's set, it's...

    What happened to OnX this year?

    I just posted nearly the same issues with the same phone. Maybe it's phone-related. I had my Delorme PN-60 as a backup, and it recorded tracks reliably when I tested it after becoming frustrated with OnX. Interestingly, in northern Alaska last fall (September '19), I used Gaia with the same...

    What happened to OnX this year?

    I didn't read this entire thread, so maybe these were already mentioned... I used my Samsung Galaxy S10 in Colorado in September, maps downloaded, offline, airplane mode, location function enabled. The tracker never worked with multiple attempts -- it literally tracked nothing except elapsed...

    Thumb Release Suggestions

    I use the Stanislawski Just X. I like it for a few reasons: it clips onto a string loop and can be left hanging there (good for treestand), has a match-grade trigger (breaks like glass, zero creep), and has a very short neck (minimizes draw length reduction). https://www.ishootastan.com/stan-justx/

    3 years in a row...

    Tagging out three years in a row on fully guided, horseback wilderness hunts would be outstanding. Here you are, batting 1.000 going solo? That's very, very well done. Truly exceptional!

    Women and baby brain. What are your theories?

    Bill Burr disagrees. (I have no opinion.)

    Grizzly Kills Moose Hunter in Wrangell-St. Elias NP in Alaska

    Here's a screenshot of the bear from video I took of the event. I find bears fascinating, but this was not a welcomed sight.

    Grizzly Kills Moose Hunter in Wrangell-St. Elias NP in Alaska

    In 2016 up in the Brooks, my buddy and I killed a dandy bull moose right before dark. A grizzly appeared within 30 yards downwind of the bear almost immediately after the bull dropped. We thought for sure the bear would try to claim our kill, and we made an awful racket as we approached...

    Elk Hate Me

    Same here. My success has way more to do with luck and elk stupidity than it does my mythical hunting prowess.
