I use mink oil on leather. For waterproofing, I just make sure my boots have Gore-tex.

The first two numbers are the magnification range. They're written with a dash between to represent the range from the low end up to the high end, such as 3-9 or 4-12 or whatever. That is typically followed by an X and then the 3rd number, which represents the diameter of the objective lens...

I like QAD Exodus 125gr heads. They fly like field tips, penetrate well, and get the job done.

With regard to the article, some of the technology we have now makes hunting more ethical in some ways. Take his example of a rangefinder. Whether you are hunting with a bow or a firearm of some type, if you know the exact distance and angle of your target, you are much more likely to make a...

That reminds me.... I need to get to work on my tax return.

The negative encounters hunters sometimes have with landowners who are jerks toward hunters are often the result of experiences that landowners have had with hunters trespassing on their private property. Which came first? The chicken or the egg? Vicious cycle.

Brine the boneless duck breast for 3-5 days in the fridge, changing the water daily. This gets rid of the blood and muddy flavor. When it's time to cook, take the meat out of the water and dry with paper towel. Tenderize the filets. Then season with salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Put a...

I've never been a fan of jammomatics. I bought a Winchester SX4 a while back. Been through 2 duck seasons with it, and it's actually been great. No trouble at all. After finding the right shim for the stock, it fits me well. Large safety and bolt release buttons. Shoots smooth. It's the...

I hunt because I'm a hunter. Similarly, I breathe air because I require oxygen. That's just the way God made me.

Of the current guided pool hunters that drew, how many of them were NM residents and how many were non-residents? You'd need those numbers in order to determine the net difference in resident and non-resident tags before/after the change. The hunters that want to use a guide are likely to...

I ordered a Bowtech Revolt X the other day. First new bow I've bought in 10 years. Well....actually first new bow I've ever bought. Always bought used before. I'm looking forward to getting it.

I drew a desert bighorn permit in Texas in 2013. They would have allowed me to use my bow, but I didn't even take it with me. Next time I draw a desert sheep tag, I'll take my bow. :)

It was cool for sure. The B-1 was from Dyess AFB, here in Abilene, TX.

Backpeddling down a rocky trail is a good way to trip and fall. That would have sucked. My first thought when watching the video was "Pick up some rocks!". I would have stopped as soon as I saw the kittens, and I would have backed off if they were close. I'm pretty sure I would have stood my...

Had a good morning today in a sunflower patch.

Temperature differences can make a significant difference at 400+ yards as well as elevation. I use Strelok, and I keep the standard MOA dials on my scopes, rather than sending them in for custom dials for that reason.

I have friends that have been to NM for vacations recently. They came and went as they pleased and had no issues that I'm aware of. Politicians are morons.

One good thing about winning a CM in a drawing would be the ease with which you could sell it in order to fund the purchase of something else. :)

As others said, it's like a national holiday in Texas. The last couple of years I haven't hunted dove as much as I used to. Last year I didn't hunt them at all. I was hunting axis. This year, I've already killed my axis bucks for the year, and I recently bought a couple of old side by sides...

I'm in
