    17 Remington

    I knew an older gentlemen who had a .17 fireball. He had to carry a ramrod with him and some cleaning patches when he shot woodchucks because after about 10 shots the barrel was so fouled that it threw bullets everywhere. He told me that wind drift was a pretty significant factor as well. I...

    Fishing has been very slow. Water needs to get hot before we get after the crappies very good. Been doing some bowfishing. I was up your way (kinda sorta) in Illinois at my deer lease last weekend hanging stands. Next time I go up I hope to have my bow in my hand.

    The look that you have when your group of 6 goes into the draw with 6 points each. Then the next morning your buddy tells you that he "may have forgotten to apply for preference points last year" so he only had 5. But he "thought he had 6"....

    2021 Fishing

    We only caught 18 crappie last weekend. Somehow we missed the spawn here in GA. Once that water gets up into the 80's I know how where they move to and we will get on them again.

    2021 Whale Spearing

    Commons and Gar are pretty much spawned out so we went hunting for big grass carp this weekend in the clear water. Sneaking up on these is like stalking a big buck....very wary of the boat and trolling motor. Got about 15 of them.

    Breakdown of my DREAM rifle (what is yours?)

    I got a Pre 64 in .243 thats is pretty sweet. It is super heavy but it has a great trigger on it. I used to tote it around the neighborhood shooting woodchucks. It was the wrong tool for the job but I was a kid and didn't care if I scared the crap out of the neighbors daily. lol

    CO Point Creep in 2021? You Bet!!

    I dont suspect you would because you have been one of those guys who have be able to capitalize on things while building points and I have too so dont take this as criticism. I hunted OTC units while applying for points for many years. We are having our cake and eating it too. I dont blame you...

    I sold a Winchester 101 that was in great shape a few years ago. It was a trap gun with that stupid 60/40 pattern. I found that to be unacceptable. LOL So it went down the road.

    Shed hunters on here?

    I was going to go back to Wyoming and spend a few days doing some shed hunting but the guy whose place I stayed at told me that I would be wasting my time because the snowmobilers pick up 90% of them before it was legal. They find some but he said that most get picked up and cashed in places...

    If someone is stupid enough to steal a gas can, then they arnt likely smart enough to see if its gas before pouring it in the tank...lol I backed into a great big big rock with my truck when I was in my early 20's. The only thing that hit was the reese hitch and it cracked the weld on the...

    CO Point Creep in 2021? You Bet!!

    OR does this mean that more people are cashing in their points and washing their hands of the mess? It would be interesting to see the percentage point holder increase that are getting in the draws that have more than 10 points. Covid kept a lot of top point holder type people from applying last...
