    Small Pistol Safe

    Touchy today? This is the internet, where people go to get frustrated cause other folks don't agree with them. One guy I was reading on another forum said he has a sign outside his door - says leave your shoes and opinions here and don't forget to take em when you leave. He seems like a...

    It worked for myself and my sister, couple other guys on here too. Spank or "talk"? Guess which one works... ;)

    Where to hunt in 2022?

    I'm planning to hunt w my nephew in Indiana next year. He's got access to 2 farms and told me to come up for opening day. Otherwise gonna keep playing the antelope game and maybe cow or "any" elk. No idea where to go for cow elk.

    The Memes Thread!

    Meme's are awesome! Even the ones I don't like. This is my truth: I know my triple vaxxed brother in law gave my double vaxxed parents covid about 6 weeks ago. All lived - BIL had it last year too. Earlier this year we had double vaxxed folks at my work getting covid. I don't work at a...

    Wyoming antelope advice for family hunt

    I first went in 2017. Since then permits have been harder to come by and the point requirements have done pretty decent jumps every year. My advice is to find the hunt you want, the unit you want. And start applying. Keep buying the preference points in between and you'll get it sooner or...

    Bison Hunt In Yellowstone?

    I shot a cow this year - 500/600 pound heifer. 50 feet, 350 Legend with 165 gr FTX homeloads at about 2300 fps between the eye and the ear. Took her feet out from under her instantly - farmer was surprised at how quickly she hit the ground. Always feels weird to shoot one of his pets but they...

    fair and balanced

    I have to go easy on this one. All kinds of folks start off with he had no reason to be there. my mind immediately asks if the felons, arsonists, looters, and massive crowds causing civil unrest did? simple truth of it all is to leave folks w guns alone.

    2021 Whitetail Success Thread!

    Hunted a whopping 5 days down here. Day 1, saw a nice buck at 35 yds but no shot. Day 3, missed a hog and gut shot a deer - buddy had tuned my xbow, dead on for him, shot to left for me. Fixed it, days 4 and 5, nothing. Deer got real scarce real fast and we were going deep. My buddy on day...

    Protect Yourself Against Component Shortages

    Very nice! I did something similar - loading 357 mag and 350 Legend (.355). The bullets will cross load if size 357 to 356 for the Legend. Bought a ML last year in prep for a long shot hunt draw. Have stuff for about 300 shots. The guy who planned for stuff is usually ready.

    Clear Shot? Mule Deer Hunting

    High shoulder shot, DRT if you aren't using a .243 and factory ammo - that's the shot I took in 2019 w 243 and had to shoot him again... I'd not pass that shot up.

    Not Sitting At Home

    You have to love an easy hunt. Get out, relax, enjoy the surroundings and shoot something. Kudos for figuring that spot out.

    Investments - what has served you well?

    I'm getting 6-8% with an advisor. Last year when the market dropped, we had a max loss of 12% (if memory serves) - made it back plus 8% I think. It keeps going up and we're only putting $14K in Roth IRAS in there. Otherwise investing into 401Ks and date funds. Pulling 8-10% in those. I...

    firearm safety and hollywood

    My whole thing is the concept that live ammo was allowed on-set and in the gun they were using. You can't hold a liberal media star to the same standard of care as someone raised/trained with a gun. He's not and never said he was. The fact that live ammo was near the prop gun is the crime...

    The Memes Thread!

    Me too - that NASCAR guy and folks chanting f biden. LOL! Anyway - you bring up a good point. I always shake my head when folks who claim to be Christians vote Democrat and support abortions. Some people area special kind of stupid.

    Drone Ruins Sandhill Crane Hunt

    The general public has no idea what a wild animal is. On TV they talk and carry on, no fear of man. Gotta feel for the guy who gets the tag and then cannot connect. Kinda like letting air out of a balloon.

    Colorado Waterfowl 21/22

    We don't start down here til Nov 20, go thru end of January w 1 short break. Last 5-10 years, the hunting has been subpar. Few pins, widgeon, gads, mostly bluebills. Happy with teal if there are any around.

    Drone Ruins Sandhill Crane Hunt

    I use a drone for work from time to time - doing property surveys where walking is not feasible - deep muck, brush too thick to walk thru, that kind of thing. They are pretty neat and sure makes my job a lot easier these days. Before we got the drone, I'd have to rent a helicopter and do it...
