    I’m hoping for that 30% retrace…if it happens I’m going hard. I’ll be adding in the low 90s on down.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    I’m trying to load up on components for practice this year…bullets and brass. Has anyone seen any great Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals? I’m stocked up on hunting bullets, but would like to get a bunch for practice. Don’t want to sacrifice much in terms of accuracy since I already suck at...

    Tips for getting a steady shot in the backcountry.

    I don’t know what your access to an area to practice is, but that is the real key to getting better and having a solid feel for your capabilities in various positions. I bought a .223 this year to get in more practice cheaply. It’s made a huge difference in my capabilities and confidence. I have...

    Oregon hunting guide killed by accidental discharge

    For me, there are absolutely accidental discharges and I believe yours would fall into that category, however they are exceedingly rare. NDs exceed ADs by a factor of many thousands, I would wager. I define an AD as an unforeseeable mechanical failure that leads to an unintended discharge. That...

    Car Crash Centered First Aid Course

    Retired 35 year FF/EMT. I worked for a very busy, big city department and we ran A LOT of trauma. Probably seen no more than 10 legit tourniquets applied during that time…so all the tourniquet talk makes me giggle a little. You work on the highway so you understand the dangers, but just let me...

    Discounted Leica Geovid R vs discounted Maven B1.2- optical quality?

    I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the Geovid Rs. Going to pick them up at a Sheels on my travels to an out of state hunt next week. I’d like to get an Aziak bino adapter while I’m in the store. Question…can anyone tell me which one is the right fit, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4? I’d prefer not having to...

    Don’t be stupid like me. Knives are sharp.

    Thanks for the reminder and glad it wasn’t any worse. I’m going to do an upgrade on my first aid kit and buy cut proof gloves for me and my boys. Does anyone have a link to gloves that are cut proof and still allow for the dexterity to do the work?

    Life after stents?

    Getting into health issues that highlight our mortality is jarring, especially at a “youngish” age. It takes a while to get passed that feeling that you have the grim reaper looking over your shoulder, but in my experience it gets better with time. The only advice I would offer in terms of CVD...

    Your ‘Last Will and Testament’

    My mom passed away 6/20 and my dad 4/24. Their will and irrevocable trust are a mess. Turns out my dad printed up some BS he found online and had it witnessed and notarized. Long story short, we are going through probate and it’s not going well. It’s a real PIA, but on the positive side it has...

    I Pushed SOS and Got Rescued: Lessons Learned

    Glad to hear the aortic dissection has been ruled out. My mind went there as I was reading the thread. They can be hard to diagnose as the referred pain can lead you away from the actual problem. I lost my favorite uncle back in ‘02 to this very problem. He was on an out of state Javalina hunt...

    A health revolution brewing?

    There are a lot of problems within the system, no doubt. One of the bright spots though is emergency medicine. From firefighters/paramedics scrapping you up off the street to doctors in the ED keeping you from dying in a few minutes, now is the best time ever to have an acute medical emergency...

    Guys I need your input on blood pressure. I don’t want to mess up

    That is really interesting. I’ve never heard of this approach to hypertension. I’m going to do some reading on it. My BP began creeping up in my 40s even though I was active and not overweight. When it got into the 140s/90s I started a med called Benicar. It worked to get my BP down but about 6...

    A health revolution brewing?

    It’s so much harder when the house is stocked up with the junk food. When it’s not around I don’t even think about it. My wife doesn’t eat the same way I do and she brings stuff home all the time…I try to stay out of it but am not always successful.
