    Picking up hitchhikers

    Kid that works with me just relayed this story to me a few weeks ago. He was working down by Winnemucca NV when he ran out of gas on a remote highway after dark. He starts thumbing it and sketchy guy in an old buick stops to pick him up. Hadn't got very far down the road when the guy pulls...

    Is there a Dr in the house to interpret my MRI?

    Had my bicep tendon cut and attached via a screw to my humerous as well to fix 60% torn labrum. It gives me problems (tendonitis) to the point thinking about having the screw removed (dr tells me that's an option and may fix the problem). I've talked to 3 different shoulder surgeons since and...

    Kuiu Upland Field Vest Review ***Updated 11/24/24***

    Thanks for the info. I wear a 34 pant but measure 37" where they say to measure and was going to go with an XL. Definitely rethinking after your post. Please give an update after you run it for a bit?

    Men’s Mental Health Challenge

    Great topic and thanks for posting. For me it's my son. Went through a tough divorce that I didn't see coming. Found out through the process that my now ex had been having affairs throughout our 20+ yr marriage. I was of the mindset that if I worked my butt off and provided for my family...

    Kuiu Upland Field Vest Review ***Updated 11/24/24***

    Darn things are already sold out in Orange. Was going to pick one up for trip to ND next week. Guess i'll just go with my old vest as it's going to be to hot for my coat. Guess I'll have to wait until they are available later this year.

    Port Strike

    Sorry but you're not correct. Majority of chemistry comes in through the gulf coast to formulation plants. Been in the Ag Chem business for 30 years. Currently work for the largest Ag retailer in the US and most of ours come into the gulf for formulation and packaging in Greenville MS. Most...

    Port Strike

    Has the potential to be extremely disruptive for the Ag market. Majority of chemistry used in the US comes in to ports from China and India. Any port disruption will increase prices and put a severe strain on supply. All this at a time when farmers are facing significant commodity price...

    Frank Church Fly In vs Pack In

    What Huntnful said. Multiple times vehicles have been stranded at top due to an early snow storm. Most of the access to the Frank comes off the top. It's been a long time but have flown in multiple times and camped at one of the airstrips. Downside is a lot of climbing >2000 ft to get to the...

    Billings Hotels

    I typically stay at the Hampton on the westside of town. Bonus short drive to Scheels if you need to pick up any last minute hunting supplies.

    Bicep tendonitis

    I do believe a programming change is in order. I do a 5X5 on a 2 day rest in between interval. I do as many reps as possible for each set until I get through all 5 sets. Have seen my bench increase about 40 lbs in the last 6 months on this program. I am going to look into the 5-3-1 program...

    Thank you, I'll give it a try definitely feeling the discomfort at the bottom of my bench.

    Bicep tendonitis

    I don't primarily because of significant shoulder issues with arthritis on my right side. Have to hit a specific slot or right shoulder sounds like a bag of potato chips. Some of it is definitely a bit of vanity on my part as I like pushing heavy weight (for me) at my age of 56. I'm currently...

    Bicep tendonitis

    Thanks for all the replies. Definitely has me thinking. Little more detail. Pain isn't unbearable probably a 4-5 when benching. Pain is below the my armpit at the bottom of my deltoid and centered on my bicep. Gonna see my Dr in a couple weeks for yearly checkup and will discuss with him...

    Bicep tendonitis

    Been pushing it on bench for about a year with a 5x5 program and have seen by bench go up considerably. Over the last couple weeks i've developed a case of bicep tendonitis on my left arm right where my bicep attaches to the shoulder. Hurts when I bench and aches especially at night. Icing...

    Jimmy John kills potential new state record sheep in NM

    Story I hear from a buddy of mine on the $300K trespass paid. The fee was actually $150K and he also paid for the guy who drew the tag for the same hunt for a total of $300K. Story I heard it was just to pass through the public land to get to public behind it. Don't know if true but good on...

    Things to do in Boise the end of August

    I'd hire a guide from Idaho Angler and go fish the Owyhee river for a day. Great Brown trout fishery. Can DIY but fish are finicky and guide will help put you on fish.

    Silly things you heard as a kid

    Mom used to say "Gonna rip off your arm and hit you in the face with the bloody end". Never heard her say "wait until your dad gets home" in my life. She could really lay a whooping on me and my siblings.
