Without a mandatory harvest report, the data is just a "scientific wild ass guess" or SWAG. Better than a WAG maybe, but not much. Minnesota has a good system for deer, you just call in after the kill, and you are immediately given a harvest number to put on the carcass tag. I'm sure that...

I wouldn't be too discouraged on the small weight gain Marcus, you may well have nailed it as far as gaining muscle. The holidays always are a time of the year when I put on a few extra pounds, but I do manage to get back to normal within a month or so afterwards. Unless you are one of those...

I have little experience and no expertise on this issue, but I remember reading an article that researched different hunting & military bows through history. Some of the military bows, such as the English long bow, and the Persian and Mongol laminated bows had very high draw weights, to the...

Not to minimize the situation at all, but it was just reported that so far in 2020 the overdose deaths in San Francisco have been three times the Covid/China virus deaths. It would be even higher if not for the 2,500 or so Narcan "saves".

We'll just have to wait and see, but I expect Canada to be pretty aggressive about this and would almost bet on the vaccine requirement. I know of a band member of the Grand Portage reservation (on the US side) who has been unable to see his family on the Canada side for over 8 months).

GR8; You have to admit that Kids meme of the sign about anyone being president was funny. It doesn't have to be aimed at anyone and you can put anyone's face on it that you want.

My only real exercise yesterday was shoveling snow. I plowed for several hours after the first real snowfall of the year (8"). The truck plow works great on the driveway, but the decks and walkways get done the old fashioned way. I was wondering why I was so sore this morning.

Welcome Muley; Cutting and hand-splitting wood for my primary source of heat for 38 years was a big part of my exercise routine. I practiced and taught martial arts for many years, and that was similar to your boxing as far as exercise and fitness benefits. I no longer run, but a couple...

Bill, at least you're headed in the right direction. I'm jealous, but deferred trying for an Alaska hunt this year due to my scheduled canoe trip in NW Territory in August. I can't even think about booking airline tickets yet until we find out if/when Canada opens up again.

I haven't done much reloading thru the years. These primers came to me from an old lady who's son died. He had scads of guns and accessories. I had sold most of everything for her, but there was no interest in the primers at the time. I suppose the interest now is due to the general...

I've had a couple inquires ref. pistol primers, and will work that out with them thru the PMs that were sent. As far as rifle primers, I have: 2,900 (2.9K) Federal 210 Match large rifle 2K CCI 200 large rifle 2K CCI 250 large rifle

The same rules apply as when you claim you shot a huge deer. It didn't happen and no one believes you until they see the photos.

I have 2,000 (2K) CCI large pistol #300 1K Federal magnum lg. pistol #155 1K CCI small pistol #500 ***And I have 6.9K of various rifle primers

Yup, the larders are almost completely bare unless you need a Nitro Express 600. I can sell some of my 30-06 Core-lokt...only $100 a box. On second thought, make that $200.

My BIL used accubonds for elk, but did not shoot anything other than deer with it so far. I use my 338 for bull elk, and the Barnes bullets have planted five of them so far. The Tikka 30-06 is used for pronghorn, whitetail deer, mule deer, and cow elk. I just use Core-lokt (165 gr.)for local...

My Bro in law and I bought the same rifle; his in 300WSM, and mine is a 30-06. He complained about the recoil, so he had it ported and upgraded the recoil pad. Both turned out to be real shooters with factory ammo. I do think that you will like it.

Kabob; Much of my experience over 55 years of canoeing and then guiding was in the BWCA and Quetico parks. If this is what you meant by a trip to the boundary waters, I can share some possible routes with you. By August, some of the dangerous waters are now runnable, but many others are now...

Even a general elk tag in Wyoming for NR's will require at least 3 pts. I've hunted late season cow elk, and snowmobiled in the area near Cokeville, and there is quite a bit of steep country (Raymond Mts.). Much of the surrounding country isn't too bad, but that doesn't mean that the elk will...

I can't call myself a river junkie, as my whitewater experience has mostly been during extended canoe trips. I've canoed over 3,000 miles in the US and Canada between 2011 and 2017, and have a 360 mile trip to the arctic ocean set up for this coming August. But, I did go on a 5 day whitewater...

That's why I'm limiting myself to only a couple hours per day and only 3-4 days per week. I am finishing some plaques for some friends for the deer shack and when I free up the shop space and clean up all the sawdust I may have to start working the weights again. My guns used to be bigger than...
