Red bar for me

My son and I went fishing this morning. Caught a limit of hybrids and a few white bass. We came back to my house for a late lunch. We then sat on the back patio by the pool. He turned the TV on and was watching a turkey hunting video on YouTube. I fell asleep. I woke up to him turning off...

I have turkey strutting in my back yard and surrounding hay field every day all spring. Heck, they are on my porch a lot. I don't know why I've never gotten into turkey hunting. Calling them in is similar to calling elk, and all of that..... But they just don't trip my trigger. I do love to...

The OMP is similar to the Bitz with a few little upgrades, based on the reviews I've seen. Josh Jones at Podium Archer had a good review of it on his YouTube channel. I don't think you can go wrong with the Bitz though.

I'm waiting on a backordered OMP Phoenix fletching jig right now. A good solid jig and the right glue is the ticket for the TACs, apparently.

I saw this a while back and thought it was interesting. TAC vanes are very stiff. You just need to use the primer and glue that TAC makes, as regular super glue won't stick them effectively. The stiffness is a plus, but it also makes fletching them a little more difficult to get right.

Here's info on thread sizes/patterns.... https://www.silencercentral.com/blog/silencer-common-barrel-thread-patterns/ They're still regulated by the NFA, so you do need a tax stamp. Info on accuracy.... https://www.silencercentral.com/blog/how-suppressors-affect-accuracy/

Yep, pistols are louder than rifles with the same caliber/ammo. That 10/22 will be fun!

I've been doing MTNTough for the last few years. It's as good as it gets. Great programs, and they're well presented as well. I like the coached videos, but some people prefer the printed programming to do on your own (mostly so they can listen to their music while they workout). I just like...

There may be no way to know who actually shot the duck, but his guides dang sure should have known better than to pick it up, much less put it on top of the pile and film it.

Yes sir. I wasn't doubting or trying to argue. I'm just saying I like to hunt private land. That's all. :)

That definitely happens, but there are still lots of opportunities like the one you had 20 years ago. Neither route (private or public/draw) is perfect. I just prefer private over the draw/public experience currently.

I hope they do, actually. I like private land hunting better. No crowds, no draw odds, etc.... If more people ditch the draw go into private land, landowner tag prices will go up faster. I hope everybody stays in the draw. :)

Non-residents have little incentive to support a state's wildlife budget when they're all but shut out of tag opportunities. Keeping all the tags for residents while taking all the money from non-residents is fun while it lasts. But it won't last.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I hope the sane people of Colorado can get rid of the wolves before it gets worse.
