    NSSF Article

    This was in today’ Daily Mail. It would seem that the shooting community is drifting away from the NRA and NSSF is gaining their trust. Sorry, I could not post the link from my iPad. The gun lobby group spending TWICE as much as the NRA to protect the Second Amendment: NSSF forks out $5M on gun...

    Bear Trust International

    I support RMEF, Ruffed Grouse Society, and Wild Sheep for lots of reasons but mostly because it allows me to support wildlife conservation in support of hunting. It’s a small opportunity to give back. With the full understanding that some organizations do great work for wildlife and other...

    Sitka &Kuiu Sales

    For the most part, I mostly buy my hunting clothes from Sitka and Kuiu. Yes, it is expensive and I wait for their sales which have been few and far between. Typically, the sale price was 20 or 25% off. But over the last four or five months, both Sitka and Kuiu seemed to be running continous...

    Barney’s Nunivak 1/4 Zip Pullover

    I like to buy from Barney’s for two reasons. First, their products are always very high quality and secondly, I kinda admire their willingness to fight against the tide and introduce products that compete against the big clothing manufactures. That said, I was looking at their Nunivak 1/4 zip...

    Dog throws up in truck

    I have a year old golden retriever that has a bad habit of throwing up in the truck. She starts drooling, then drooling a lot, and then she lets it rip. I’m not sure if its car sickness or stress. I’ve been taking her longer rides of maybe four to eight minutes hoping that it’s stress and...

    Federal Syntec Ammo in Glock 19

    I shoot a Glock 19 with a Deltapoint Pro red dot. This combination works great for me and I’ve gone through hundreds of rounds without a single jam or doublefeed but I bought a box of the Federal 9mm syntec ammo and every fourth or fifth shot ends in a jam or double feed. The syntec ammo is...

    Sitka Aerolite

    Any real world reports of using the new Aerolite Jacket out in the field? Sitka says it’s about 30% warmer than the old Kelvin Lite Hoodie but lighter and insulates better when wet. The old Kelvin Lite Hoodie was one of my favorite pieces of Sitka gear and I might have to replace it (assuming...
