    Long Range Proficiency

    I live in the People’s Republic of Illinois. No suppressors allowed here either, which is why I shoot .308. Cheap ammo, lower recoil, and allows long range practice with hunting ranges extended beyond 300 yards. There are obviously other great caliber options though that aren’t miserable to...

    Long Range Proficiency

    I think you are best served picking a caliber and gun that you can shoot a ton. Get to know that rifle like the back of your hand and work under tons of different conditions and shooting positions. I don’t love the idea of getting proficient with one rifle, and then switching to an entirely...

    Crockpot Shanks

    Shanks are my favorite cut if you do them right. I second the Hank Shaw recommendation. I just made a rear whitetail shank recipe last week with this approach. Sear whole on all sides after salt and pepper, add beef stock and scrape brown bits, add garlic, bay leaf, thyme, chili sauce (not hot...

    Archery post-labral tear, frozen shoulder?

    Not an orthopedic surgeon perspective, but I am an emergency medicine physician so take it for what it’s worth. I was classically trained that during the first several months of adhesive capsulitis you are going to be in the acute phase and have a lot of pain and significant range of motion...

    Recommend me a boot (low volume feet)

    Schnees Beartooth fit my feet tight but not too tight with mid weight socks and I have similar issues with other boots. They are a little heavier than the Thor though.

    Congrats to you both! My oldest daughter (3 total) went on a successful turkey hunt with me this year and it was an experience I’ll never forget. You both should be proud!

    I believe it’s done.

    Looks awesome! Congrats on getting it done. I have looked at McMillen stocks before and like a number of their products. I laugh every time I see the Game Warden.

    Looking for some courage/advice on leaving a job for a 40k pay cut per year?

    On my deathbed I will not look back and wish I had more money. I sure as hell will wish I'd spent more time with my family. I’ve been in your shoes and kept the job/career. It has worked out with less hours now, but I missed a lot of years of my kids childhood and it haunts me.

    All around backcountry rifle set up for under 3000?

    A big consideration from what you are saying is caliber for all species vs lightweight. Probably the best all species cartridge is .300 WM in my opinion, but I sure as hell wouldn’t want to shoot it in a lightweight rifle. If you are looking for a balance, I love .308 and will kill anything with...
