    What would have happened if I would have shot this round?

    You're one of the few, the proud, the honest. But good luck selling a $4000 gun with “shoots like crap, all over the place, constant hassle. If you like zeroing your gun daily THIS ONES FOR YOU” Most go the, “shoots great just going in a different direction” sales pitch route.

    Sevr 2.0 insane wound

    Tough way for her to go man but it happens. Still better than being eaten alive by wolves or coyotes. I use the Sevr 1.5s and they’ve done a good job killing both deer i shot this year but honestly it’s a good thing i’m a proficient tracker as the blood was not great. Was thinking of bumping...

    Recipes for Whitetail burger

    We throw most of ours into stuff like spaghetti. I don’t think we’ve bought overpriced store bought ground beef in decades. Anything that calls for ground beef gets ground venison.

    Let them grow?

    “Let them grow” is the DUMBEST statement ever coined by bad hunters and adopted by most today. It is a result of social media. No one said this back in the day. I got my start THANKFULLY in the 80s. We shot what we wanted when we wanted. A trophy class animal was celebrated but not...

    What would have happened if I would have shot this round?

    Yep, sell it to the next guy to deal with. Put it in the safe as a collectors item, eat your losses, and move on. I NEVER buy from other guys and this is the number 1 reason why. It ALWAYS “shoots great” when it’s for sale.

    What hunter stage are you in?

    This is my 37th season bow hunting whitetails. I’ve gone through most of these stages and just the last 3-5 seasons or so transitioned away from the Trophy Stage back to the Limiting Out Stage where i resided many years ago. Filling my tags and the venison/memories it provides for me and my...

    Bad day in the field

    What did you do after the shot????? Gut shot (if that’s what ya mean by too far back) animals are of course dead animals and fully recoverable if you go about it right. Of course if pushed too early recovery is almost impossible.

    Filson clothing and gear.

    Filson is absolutely beyond a doubt no longer a hunting, outdoorsman, etc brand. They are targeting fake Chicago type urbanites who take “outdoorsy” trips up to WI and want to “look the part”. No different than the uppity, snobby REI crowd who look appalled when i tell them im buying some sort...

    When to quit?

    No doubt less than 10%, maybe even less than that, of hunters are killing the vast majority of big bucks. My sons soccer coach has NEVER harvested a deer hunting 25 years in WI. I find that remarkable as a guy that doesn’t see killing deer as being incredibly difficult. So seeing as he has...

    When to quit?

    Can you get Doe Tags there? Whenever i felt like i was in a slump, burned out, or just generally felt like i needed to have some success i put a green light on does. I’d kill 2, maybe 3 and feel good about just being a hunter doing what i am programmed to do. Killing does seems to work...

    When to quit?

    I have exactly the same number of years on stand as you. I’m 49 started at 12. I’ve killed 2-3 deer on average per year over that span hunting almost exclusively public and primarily with a bow. If you have seriously only killed 10 deer in almost 40 years of hunting i find that to be...

    Newsom signs bill banning single-use propane cylinders popular with campers

    I’d bet my bottom dollar that those “slob campers” you’re referring to leaving their trash everywhere are Liberal voting city dwellers from whichever city is closest. The very people voting for the idiot banning the things they are doing.

    Voter turnout

    Why, so they can get “lost” like the box full of Trump votes found along the freeway north of Milwaukee WI in 2020? The safest bet is be a man, wait in line, vote day of and feed your ballot into the machine yourself. Voting or waiting in line is a small price to pay to make sure your vote is...

    BRO Breakup

    I saw these guys once a few years ago on a Youtubevideo. I didn’t know they were even still a thing as that was years ago.

    Truck Batteries

    Walmart Everstart for the win. Trust me I hate Walmart as much as the next guy. But when their battery is half the price, has a year longer warranty than the overpriced brands ($300-$400 is a RIPOFF), and is made in the exact same factory as those other brands they get my business. Plus...

    Boots - are we doing it wrong

    Well....youve missed my point completely but thats ok. No problem with disagreements particularly when there is no wrong or right answer in the end. Its not wrong to wear the stiffest boot possible to walk 2 miles up a mountain nor is it wrong to walk that same 2 miles up the mountain in...

    Boots - are we doing it wrong

    Its possible that had you always wore less supportive boots, meaning from youth on up, that your ankles, feet and arches would be strong enough to resist injury from any sort of terrain. There is mounting evidence to support this and honestly it passes the smell test. Its just very recently...
