Dan; Only in the UP (up north), or in some of the hard care "Good Old Boy" regions of the south could you do something like that in church. If it wasn't so far, I'd sign up as a member. God gave us dominion over the animals.. to care for them, respect them, and at some point to eat them.

No suggestion as to units, but you may want to consider making a deal with your hunting partner (especially if you are the older guy with the most points). Apply separately for tags in the same unit & season. If only one draws, then both commit to the hunt. After that the role will reverse...

67 here in the deep woods of NE Minnesota. Marine Corps - 6 years, 30 years LE, retired.

I will do that. I just started the stripping process yesterday, and will have enough for a progress report w/photos in a few days.

I see why you mentioned sand bags as an option. If you are in SA right now, are they going to let you come back anytime soon?

Nice project. I built a guest cabin that we spray foamed, and after 7 years it is still 100% mouse proof. Those little buggers can chew their way through most things, but they don't like that foam. My guess is that if there isn't a hole to slither through, then you shouldn't have snakes either.

I got another pickup truck, and am starting to build a cedar strip topper for it. I made one out of northern white cedar for my 2011 Dodge RAM. This one will be eastern red cedar (AKA Aromatic cedar) for the 2011 GMC. These are "strip" construction, just like building a canoe, and will be...

Snow shoveling, snowmobiling, wood hauling, splitting, and stacking. Ammo inventory (a lot of free weights there). I have my pull-up and push-up bar & lots of dumb-bells in my livingroom where I can't ignore them. P90X cds when I need motivation.

Kid: Ref. your question about the run on T.P. when this isn't a crapping type flu. When you self-isolate or quarantine you don't want to run out if you can't get to the store every few days. Farmers will never run out as long as they have corn cobs.

I am prepared for the Zombie-Apocolypse, but this got me by the shorts. Sort of reminds me of one of my fathers favorite poems; "When in trouble, when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout. Luckily for my wife and I that we had already figured out that we don't need a "bug-out kit", since...

CoV, You pretty much stopped this thread right there with that post.

Erik: You didn't ID the rangefinder that you bought, but since you already have it, I suggest that you spend some time with it outdoors and see what its capabilities are. The subject has been covered a lot on this forum, and I suggest that you slide down to the equipment/gear section and scroll...

Probably the number one item that DTC sells that many of us on the forum should wear are their "LongTail T's" They get the crack out of your life, and more importantly, out of everyone else's.

I had bushwacked several miles from a popular hiking trail in a Colorado wilderness area in 2014. I was MZL deer hunting solo, and planned to stay for up to 10 days. I hadn't seen any big critters on the way in, and barely got the tent set up before dark. I was having trouble getting to...

I remember reading on some forum (maybe even this one) several years back about the 125 gr. 30-06 accelerator ammo. It pushed the sabot bullet at close to 4,000 fps, but the issue the poster had was that it shot poorly because the twist rate didn't stabilize the bullet as well as the 150-180...

Come on Kid, you would look so cool in these, even "WOKE". Especially if you wore them with your red woolie long johns.

The area where I hunted in CO last fall was accessed the first 3 miles on a "Jeep/ORV trail" It is apparently heavily used right up to the wilderness area boundary. Before the hunting season starts it is gated and posted as closed. I spent 13 days in that area and never saw anyone else but...

For a starter, you mentioned Pinedale. I would suggest that you make motel reservations well in advance, as the energy companies had locked up many of the rooms long term. That may have eased some from a couple years ago. While in Pinedale, spend some time at the Museum of the Mountain Man if...

I bought a "tweeked" 338WM Winchester Super Grade from an old guy who couldn't shoot anymore because of Parkinsons. I had to glass bed it and a couple other small things, but now it is an absolute killing machine. My first 3 bull elk were shot at under 60 yards, so even a 45-70 would have...

I had applied for the area 66 MZL hunt after getting a lot of good information from a forum member who used to guide in that unit. I did a scouting trip in july, and spent the night at 12K'. I saw a number of bucks and quite a few moose. I did not draw the tag that year, even with 8 pts., and...
