    One more Crispi question...

    Finally got my foot in a Crispi. It was a size big and fit as such, but it confirmed that the proper size SHOULD have the width I need. It was a Crispi Nevada, however, and I'm eyeing the Lapponia or the Wyoming. Are they generally the same width by model or am I going to be disappointed and...

    Its boot shopping time....

    Apparently, my ankles are pretty solid the Salomons annoyed me a little at first because they were stiffer than what I'm used to walking on. Add to that walking on harder, smoother surfaces during initial break in and I guess I built the idea that they were stiffer. I typically wind up...

    Its boot shopping time....

    Oof. The Salomon is a "soft" boot? My work boots must be tennis shoes then. I'd hate to see what a stiff boot is.

    Never used a flat soled boot like that. I've worn heeled boots for probably 40 years if not longer. I will add them to the list. Thank you

    The EEEE is ALWAYS an issue. Even "extra wide" boots are narrow for my feet. Are you using the boot covers outside?

    Its boot shopping time....

    I think my Salomons will survive the season, but probably won't make it to next year, so it's boot shopping time and I'm not looking forward to it. Last boot shopping trip took 12 hours, 8 stores in 3 counties. Currently using the Quest4GTX and while a touch snug across the ball of my foot...

The first step is to color the bevel with a sharpie and adjust your angle until a fine stone removes the sharpie cleanly Now, drop back to your coarser stones, work the edges to build a burr, flip the burr and burr the other bevel. NOW your edge is...

    Smaller freeze dried meals?

    A while back, I was working in a WallyMart and bought a handful of "Nutrient Survival" singles. I guess they were clearance items. Is there any other freeze dried meal company making single portions like these? I've done some Google work and can't find any. They're not enough for a full...

    Left eye dominant, right handed?

    I never so much as handled a left handed rifle until I was an adult. My dad bought me a pump gun, Remington 7600 or I fought a right hand bolt. I finally met a guy in the woods with a lefty rifle, handled it and needed to own one. Gunbroker to the rescue. I waited and watched until I found...

    What the closest face-to-face encounters you've had with animals while hunting?

    I have 2 encounters where animals literally jumped into my lap. Both were many years ago in the north woods of Pennsylvania. While deer hunting and sitting under a tree, I had a weasel come hopping through the snow and jumped up onto my boot and look over the toe at me. Another time, hunting...
