    Reloading data 12ga

    I agree with that it is not worth it if you only shoot a case or so. I load and shoot a lot, my latest obsession has been loading bismuth for waterfowl. I have also been loading steel/TSS duplex loads (not too many of these due to cost). You can definitely save money loading bismuth. As a matter...

    Buy once cry once shotgun for water fowl

    I have Benelli's and Beretta's as my main waterfowl guns. I just bought a new Beretta A400 Xtreme Plus last month. I have a short LOP and the Beretta allows me to shorten the gun to the correct length by just removing shims. The Benelli SBE 3 I was considering requires a short LOP recoil pad...

    Groundblind vs ladder stand

    I like to be in a stand when bow hunting. I tried a ground blind a few times with a bow and wasn't comfortable drawing in the blind. It also seemed like deer would look right at me when in the ground blind. I like a ground blind with rile at much longer distance than bow.

    Always, always check your tree stand for any possible issues. Had a cable break today when I was in the stand.

    This reminds me that I need to replace the ratchet straps on my ladder stands. I leave them up all year on my property and replace the straps every two years (really just place new ones over the old). Also as I have gotten older my stands have gotten lower.

    Large soft cooler / kill bag

    A soft cooler seems like a great idea. I have similar issues when I go to Canada for geese. The hard cooler takes up a lot of space. I will have to check these out.

    Most fun bird to hunt?

    Canada geese on cornfields, snows from a pit blind, and divers from a sneakbox or layout boat are my favorites.
