buckbull, I agree on your view about hot-tubs. But, that is a small price to pay to keep my wife happy while I am off hunting or fishing somewhere.

It's been a long week of plowing & shoveling with 40" of mostly heavy wet snow this past week. Things finally became somewhat manageable after I put tire chains. -20 this morning as an added bonus.

COV, way to go salvaging something out of a tough year. I like the photo perspective of the cow elk...it looks like he shot an eland. \ I finally downloaded some pics of my archery spike bull. Public land, 2 1/2 hours back on horses. My plan was to camp out for a week solo, but it all...

I have almost 5,000 miles on my 2015 Ranger, and other than normal maintenance and new tires, have had no problems with it. I would upgrade to a new model, but the $$$$$ have held me off of making the move. I am sure that you will have plenty of opportunities to use and appreciate the new...

I was planning to head back to Wyoming to use my cow tag, but it looks like I would spend too much time holed up in a motel, stuck in a ditch, or idling on the highway because of closed roads. Pretty much the entire route is getting blasted, and they're predicting 12" or more snow where I live...

Way to go IKIC. It looks like that old boy was a real brawler.

Looks like I'm late for the party. I found a full box of Sierra Game King .243 boat-tail 90 gr. Plus a box of 85 gr. FMJ to play with. Sounds like you are good, but I no longer have a .243 so they are just ballast at this point. Anyone wants them then let me know.

I'm doing my part holding the line on the northern border. There's not much more than 130 miles of woods, swamps, and lakes between me and Canada. I've got Minnesota covered, and it looks like idcwby and kidoggy have Idaho.

I'm in the same boat with brass ammo. I had stockpiled 556 and 7.62 ammo in anticipation on an ammo ban for "black rifles", I have plenty but don't want to shoot up what I have.. replacements are available again, but at a much higher cost. 30-06 Rem. Core-Lokt was cheap and I stocked up when...

Been there, done that.

I spent 6 weeks hunting & fishing in WY over Sept./Oct. I was able to arrow a spike bull with my GEN tag, then went on to hit a number of remote lakes and caught 4 new species of fish. The orange army came out for the rifle opener and that affected my cow hunt, but will be going back in Dec...

As a high school trap team coach, we are able to lock in on trap loads for the team, but still have to shop around for ourselves. I'm not a high volume shooter, but still go thru 3+ cases a year. I used to get Federal Top Gun trap at Walmart for $5.59 a box, but those days will likely never...

We finally got rid of the family drama after convincing my Hippie brother to stop bringing politics into every discussion and family get together. So, we just had a great Thanksgiving with all my family that still lives close. Mnhoundman; you can thank me for the Viking's win, because...

That's weird; Did you even notice that while you were doing all the counting? It looks like you had a great experience with the proper reward at the end. As it should be.

That's a real bruiser. Those "swamp bucks" don't always have the biggest racks, but they sure do grow big. This one does have some great headgear tho.

Since we've taken a swing into the hunting ethics area, here's a situation where I recently had the opportunity to coach three young hunters about making responsible decisions. On my trip to Wyoming with two elk tags in my pocket, a friend had packed me 2 1/2 hours in on horseback to drop me...

I put a Leupold Freedom on my .22 and am totally satisfied with it. It is a reasonably priced scope with good optics, but I certainly would upgrade to the III's for a hunting rifle.

No more guns for me at this point in my life....BUT, I always am ready to jump on something. Now ammo is another thing, I am on the lookout for what is available and at a reasonable price. Don't get a dog if you can't feed it.

I have mostly Leupold VXIII's on my rifles, but have a Shepard on the 30-06, and a Vortex on the 5.56. All do the job, but I must say that the VXIII's have never failed to impress me. At this point in my life I try to never buy anything that is made in China, but sometimes that is unavoidable...

No exercising or dieting per se, but I recently returned from 6 weeks hunting & fishing in the Wyoming high country. I filled my archery bull tag, and caught several new species of fish (for me), but the cow elk eluded me for now. I'll just have to go back this winter when the type 6 tag...
