    CVA Accura or Optima

    I am thinking of adding a new CVA "Northwest" legal muzzleloader to my bag of tricks. This NW version is available in the Optima and the Accura. The only difference between the Northwest Edition and the "standard" versions, from what I have learned, is the breech plug and the firing pin. With...

    My Son's Columbia Whitetail Buck

    This morning my son and I got to hunt deer together. He drew a limited entry tag here in Oregon for Columbia Whitetails. Up until about 10 years ago, these deer were federally protected.

    Glasses or Contact Lenses?

    I'm 48, and really hoped to make it to 50 before needing glasses, but I didn't quite make it. I tried LASIK 3 years ago in my bad eye (my right/dominant eye) which brought it back to 20/20, but now its right back where it was before LASIK. I am trying to decide whether to go the glasses or...
