For years we would gut them and then skin one side and then start cutting. On the hinds we would split the pelvis and the tail part of the spine to where we would have two hinds from the hoof to the tail. We would leave the legs attached for easier packing with just a game bag on it.
We would...
On freezing water jugs look at what fits into your coolers. I like 1 quart bottles. they lay down in my coolers quite nicely and if needed you can place them into the body cavity of a animal to cool it off. Also pieces of 1/2" pvc pipe cut to the width of your cooler and then using them to...
If you wash it and then don't let it dry it will start the bacteria growing. In the slaughter houses they control the temperatures and it is usually cool enough that they don't have to worry about it.
But I have washed off and cleaned out the body cavity of gut shot animals with water and...
We used to hunt deer a area in the Utah Book Cliffs that you could only access from Colorado.
One day as we were coming out of the canyon we spotted a small buck and since my nephew wanted a deer I stopped my truck so that he could get out and shoot it. He walked over to a edge of a ravine a...
I have yet to see a poaching case get settled with the type of punishment that I think that they actually deserve. Even healthy fines are just a slap on the wrist when you come down to it. And until some good jail time that has to be served I don't think that much is going to be done as far as...
After getting my second shot on Saturday I felt a little bit tired today. Not so tired that I couldn't do what I wanted to do but it would be real easy to sit down in my favorite chair and take a nice nap.
But then I usually feel that way if I sit down in that chair and close my eyes.
If I am near a garden hose I will hose it off to get any loose hairs or any dirt that may be on the meat. I'll then let it dry before wrapping it up.
When I am antelope hunting I pack a extra 5 gallons of water in my truck just to wash off the animal once I am done skinning it.
If I am...
Enforcement is the big question that I don't believe has been really looked at.
Lets, take South Africa for a example. In order to enter SA from a country that had Yellow Fever you need proof of a vaccine. Now is it like what I now have from the CDC when I got my Covid vaccine or is is just...
I've seen that bug put people into a hospital for a couple of weeks and stuck on a ventilator for most of the time while they were in the hospital.
It is interesting in that the flu is almost nonexistent this year yet Corona is still putting people into the hospitals ICU beds.
I have found that if you dig deep enough you can prove that the earth is flat and that you will fly off into space if you are in China.
I decided to get the vaccine myself after seeing what it did to a couple of friends. The big thing is that you need to make the decision for yourself, it...
I would say that a lot of us in the county are getting it done.
There have been a couple of drive through locations along with the JJ vaccine that came out the first of March that quite a few got.
I got my second Moderna shot today. It was interesting in that at the school that I got it at there were no where near the same number of people as was there a month ago when I got the first one. Perhaps when I got my first one there might of been a lot getting their second one along with...
For some reason I just don't trust phones for picture taking. I even installed a separate card to store my pictures on and I still don't trust it.
Congrats on the sheep, any story behind it or just I went, I found, and I shot?
