    2023 Antelope/Deer and Resident Elk Results Available

    Like I have said many times on this site and many others: "Even if residents had ALL the tags, and no NR's were allowed to hunt (Insert ANY state here), Resident hunters would still not likely draw LE tags with any form of regularity and their licenses would cost 10X more....and then fight...

    Investments - what has served you well?

    I knew the filthy rich and powerful of the 500 would get things magically turned around as soon as their investments were moved, and all suspicions had ceased to exist or be questioned. If only a guy had dumped that spare million, he had in his sock drawer into the S&P500 in March of 2020...

    The new age of Hunting

    I don't shoot at big game animals past 400 yards with a rifle. That is my self imposed limit. If I can't get closer, well, let's be honest, I'm mostly a bowhunter, so yes, I can get closer. Much closer. lol I also don't shoot past 50 with my bow at big game animals. I practice out to 80 though...

    The 40 acre deer refuge 2023

    I have a bunch of boards that twisted on me after they dried. Sweet gum twists like a cork screw. lol Its a hard board like hemlock when it dries though! Those oak logs that I cut from the sawmill have sat too long and when you cut them you can already see the board warping 2" from end to end...
