    multiple coyotes

    I mostly hunted coyotes with Walker Dogs in my younger years. Although I have killed a lot by calling them either while deer hunting or turkey hunting. Back in my early 20's I killed these two dirty birds while turkey hunting one year. Seen them trailing a herd of does that had come by and I...

    Thoughts on Suppressors for Hunting?

    I'm with CC. I dont want to deal with the nonsense and they look pretty dumb on the end of the gun. I dont have any issue with anyone that wants to use one though.

    Local Shooting Range Situation

    Sorry to hear about your situation. $55 per member is pretty cheap. Raise your rates to cover the cost. Seems like the only thing you can do. For comparison there are 1200 members in my club. I pay $120/year. We have 5 stand, 2 trap ranges, 2 skeet ranges, 2 sporting clay's courses, 12...

    Best broadheads for elk?

    No offense to anyone who uses an expandable. But, with the 1,000 things that can go wrong during my bow hunt, putting something that could mechanically fail on the end of my arrow sure as hell isn't going to be the 1,001'th thing. Thats just me. Been bow-hunting for 25 years killed a lot of...

    Best Way to Sharpen a Knife

    I can relate to the broken blades.....I broke a blade in my Havalon when I was cutting my elk up last year. And I quote: "Nobody move.........did you see where that blade went?" lol I really like those knives though.

    When did you kill your first deer?

    Pennsylvania in 1996. It was a mature doe. I shot it with my bow at about 10 yards. I didn't know it at the time but my neighbor was about 300 yards away video taping the whole thing. He didn't even know I was in the tree and wondered why the deer took off running. I often wondered where the...

    Reminds me of my Joe Biden loving, 400 pound, dirt-bag, Democrat, Aunt who plays the "I am legally blind card" to get extra disability on top of her "I was raped in the military card" disability. She still drives her minivan all over the place. We dont exchange Christmas cards and havnt talked...

    Best Way to Sharpen a Knife

    Work sharp. I run my leatherman through it about once a week. In the field I use a little cheap yellow one with carbide on one side and ceramic on the other to keep things cutting good while butchering. When I get home everything goes through the work sharp. I do have a smiths diamond kit...

    Turkey Science with Mike Chamberlain

    VERY great discussion. I am glad to see they are moving the season back a week or 2 next year in GA. The amount of turkey hunters in GA has been very hard on the poult recruitment. Man oh man, are the people crying a river here over those proposed changes. I wish they would just shut the season...

    Time is up! Good luck!

    Sitting this year out in Colorado. We chose to instead lease some property (which I dont really like doing) in Illinois and after dealing with the neighbor there last weekend I am wishing I had applied for HC deer with my bow instead....I guarantee the fat retard trespassing on Saturday isn't...

    Dog issue

    -Let the dog outside more. Run him more. Lab pups need a LOT of outside time. -Get him on a good feed schedule and let him outside after you feed him. 8 Hours is a long time for a Lab to be in a little kennel..... That would be like putting you inside a kennel for 2.5 days..... To be frank, if...

    We need to go back to: Ride Fast and Take Chances

    We need to go back to: Ride Fast and Take Chances

Cuaght her getting air in the Pioneer 500 the other day over a water break in the field with her little...

    Name That Puppy!

    Jack That was the name of my old squirrel dog. When we didnt get many squirrels I would always tell my hunting partners that Jack was having an off day...which was funny literally every single time.
