    Time for a member re-introduction! Where are you from+a fun fact about yourself.

    Greenwood, IN Fun fact: over the last couple years I have learned that taking long hunting trips and having 3 kids under 5 at home are two things that don't really go well together.

    which chainsaw?

    Not really in the same category as a stihl or husky, but I have Echo cs310 that I have had for a number of years and it is great for light work around the house and when hiking a trail. Light weight and has always started great. I have a bigger husky, but the echo probably gets more use just...

    Keeping it simple

    I try not to go overboard. But I'd generally rather be the guy that carries a little extra than the guy that thinks he needs nothing and then has to borrow his buddies stuff all day in the field.

    How was your 2020 hunt? Location not needed. More/less deer, more/less people.

    Less deer and more people. The deer being down was I think due to a different crop on the neighbors land and an early harvest. The more people was real frustrating because it is private property and those people were trespassing... Anyway, the deer I did see where higher quality than I have...

    Pack size for 5 day

    As others have mentioned the size of the pack needed can really vary depending on time off year and what you personally NEED to stay comfortable. I started out with a 3400 ci hiking backpack and a cheaper sleeping bag for cold weather and found that just the sleeping bag was taking up way to...

    Sleeping in a crew cab truck ?

    I'm in the camp of sleeping in the cab sounds like a bad option... Sleeping curled up in a truck sounds like a good way to end up with a sore neck or back that could make hiking around all day with a heavy pack sound pretty miserable.

    Eating roadkill

    Same here in IN, you need a permit to be able to transport any roadkill animal that has a hunting season... Whitetail, turkey, fox, rabbit, etc. I think these permits need to be provided by an officer at the scene of the accident, this is to help prevent people taking animals out of season.

    Good resources for learning to hunt mid-west public land?

    What state are you planning on hunting? Make sure you familiarize yourself with the rules of the specific properties you are looking to hunt. Sometimes they vary between state forest, national forest, fish and wildlife areas etc... Also I agree with the above about bow hunting, here in Indiana...

    Anybody else try sleep training their kids?

    For us it really depended on the kid. Our oldest trained real easy, but our middle child really struggled with it. They are 3 and 4.5 now and share a room which helps them with going to bed. But our 3 year old still comes to our room about 2 or 3 in the morning. We never let her sleep in our...

    Experience with foot surgery?

    2nd opinions are always good before a surgery as every injury and every person responds differently. But I had a bone spur growing on the end of my first metatarsal that caused a lot of joint pain on my big two. I had surgery where they essentially cut off the end of my first metatarsal and...
