    When to quit?

    Understood, but it's harder to get good at killing bucks when you can only kill one per year.

    When to quit?

    After you fix your target panic, spend some hunts still hunting into areas bucks might be bedded. When you bump a buck, drop a pin on OnX. Map any other sign you come across. When you've done this enough, you'll be able to see on the map how deer use the land you're hunting. It's also a nice...

    When to quit?

    I think you're looking at the wrong stats for ranking opportunity. 2/3 of those states are one-buck states. PA's deer population is 15% lower than Wisconsin's, but PA sells 30% more licenses. You can't just go by kills because us PA boys like to get after it.

    Two party system: a necessary evil?

    Yeah. My election-induced post was pretty tongue-in-cheek, but I'm impressed by some of the thoughtful responses. I might use a few of the ideas next year.

    Two party system: a necessary evil?

    5 parties would be way too many. I would like to get down to one. I really think consolidating would reduce my stress level and help my wallet.

    Two party system: a necessary evil?

    This topic has been really weighing on my mind. Every October and November I go through so much anxiety over it. My wife and I have different priorities this time of year. Between family and friends, we haven't been able to get everyone together for a just one birthday party for one of my...

    Will Vehicle Prices Ever Decrease?

    I'm on the fence about buying a brand new Toyota. Do prices usually go up or come down immediately after an election?

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    My wife told me 150 mountain house meals was too many. I ordered fewer than 150. Might pick up a few more later. Ammo might be next.

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    This thread has me convinced I need to stockpile some 30-year shelf life mountain house meals for the fam. What kind of sale should I hold out for? Think I can get 30% off around black Friday? If I plan to eat 5 per year, minimum, I might as well buy 150 bags, right?

    Rant: Private security for FS road closure cannot speak english

    @Rotnguns I appreciate you posting the road name for me. I've written it down and dropped some pins in OnX. Can you edit your posts to remove that now so our spot doesn't get too crowded?

    Rant: Private security for FS road closure cannot speak english

    This isn't hard, guys. If you need the federal government to hire a worker with more education to sit in a truck on the side of a closed road all day so that they can provide the general public with articulate info on hunting conditions in the area, just donate money for that workers salary when...

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    Computer hacking skills is good advice. During COVID I set up a program to snipe coveted grocery delivery timeslots within seconds of them becoming available. Without it I would have had to shop the old fashioned way.

    How bad do you think its going to get?

    I got COVID while my employer had access to government funds to cover employees' time off. I got paid to go hunting. I remember it well.

    Rebarrel to fast twist 270 Win or go 6.8 Western?

    How long is a 270 win cartridge with the 155gn LRX seated to an appropriate depth? Will it fit in your magazine? Will you be able to send a dummy round to the person chambering your new barrel?

    Big game wound/recovery ratio

    20% isn't a very large percentage. The OP's third paragraph says this is about groups and not individuals. This includes all big game seasons and species. Given all that, the poll results match my expectations.

    Big game wound/recovery ratio

    I shot a buck with my bow last year that ran over 1/4 mile and went into private property that I was denied permission to access. There was a ton of blood all the way to the property line. I keep thinking it must have been a poor shot for it to run that far.

    Dishwasher replacement questions

    We saved about 40% by buying a floor display Bosch from our local Best Buy instead of ordering a new one. We love how quiet it is compared to the Frigidaire we were running.
