I'm pretty lucky....I've hunted waterfowl for over 60 years. I've learned a lot and lots of it applies to ducks & geese anywhere they are. If you live in an area that has a reasonable population of geese, get out and watch them. Where they go, where they feed, what times do they fly, etc. They...

Other than Nosler Partition in my .300 Wby Mag, all I use I everything else (.25-06, 257 Wby, 30-06 & .243 ) is Sierra Game King BTs. I have used Sierra bullets for over 50 years and they perform great for me. I also use them in my .220 Ackley Improved Swift. Given that the Speers are only 5...

Original backup alarm, as you can see, not invented by GM or Ford!

The downside is when you get caught in a snowstorm at night and your popup cover is blown away and everything is covered in snow..LOL!

I tent camped for years and then a cabover camper. I finally got a quad and decided there was a better way. I bought a 20' snowmobile trailer from a neighbor and converted it into a hunting/camping trailer. I added fold up bunks, insulation and a heater. I carry all my camping stuff in it and my...

Living in a pretty rural area had good & bad circumstances. Internet service is pretty bad, as DSL is the only real provider and at times it is really slow. THE GOOD.. Century Link is the local provider and I keep a land line phone so I can get internet. They are upgrading the service installing...

I just received my Wyo ORV permit/sticker. It took less than a week to get here (including a holiday). $15.00 and did it online. Don't forget to get the permit if you are using an off road Vehicle.

Really glad the college season has started. My Alma Mater won today, but didn't look sharp at all. Started a true 17 year old Freshman! When I played there Freshman had to play Freshman Football. NCAA mandated no freshman could play any varsity sport. USC 43 - UNLV 21...

I bought mine used, had 2250 miles on it and brand new tires. Bought it 2 years ago, also has a winch. Paid 6000 for it. Bought a blade for it and does good moving snow off my entry road. (what small amount we had last winter!LOL)

Any of you planning to hunt Durango, Silverton, Telluride or Cortez areas be prepared for monsoon rains. Starting Tuesday, rain showers are forecast thru next weekend. Bring your rain gear and get off the tops if it starts raining, thunder & lightning. Good luck to you all.

I am seriously thinking about adding a performance "chip" to my 2014 Ford F350 with a 6.7 Powerstroke. It has all the power I really need, even towing my 8K travel trailer. I am looking to pick up a little mileage, especially when I'm not towing. Anyone done this and willing to recommend which...

Thanks. It is really great having irrigation shares and water so I can keep my pond full and everything watered and green. Before we started, you can see the rain bird sprinkler on top of the pvc . Gave all the old stuff to my neighbor.....now he can move them around...HeHe!

They are adjusting sprinkler pattern and flow.

My Sprinkler Contractor finally started digging ditches and installing my automated sprinkler system. When he gets finished, about 3 acres will be on an timed, automatic watering system similar to a golf course system. Now when my wife and I travel, everything will get watered. No more dragging...

It has rained 4 nights in a row and fixin to rain again this afternoon. Wind blew so hard last night that it blew down limbs over the elec lines and power was out 2 hours. It also blew over 3 hybrid cottonless cottonwood trees on my neighbors place.

The other day I was in my reloading/hunting equipment shop cleaning up some gear I had put off doing. Looking at all the stuff I have accumulated over the years got me thinking. I started hunting in 1948 when I was 7 years old. I started out shooting a circa 1920's Eastern Arms single shot...

I need some personal experience. I am getting ready to buy a new riding mower. I currently have a Sears/Craftsman 54" Lawn Tractor. It has been a great mower, had it 10 years with annual servicing done every year. Starting to have a few problems, so I think it's time for a new piece of...

The Monsoons are here! Pretty cloudy yesterday, but today lightning, thunder and the skies opened up. Rained for 3 hours or so. I am sure it really helped the fire fighters that are up there in the La Platas fighting the fire nearest me. Also cooled down from the 90's to 60 right now. Very...

Just booked a great cabin near Soldotna, AK for 3 weeks in May/June in 2019. My wife and I were going to pull our rv to Ak , but decided to fly instead. Got the cabin booked(thanks to AKaviator), now need to fill in the blanks.....car rental, airline tickets, fishing charters, etc. Plan to do...

I am looking at 2019 and starting to plan a few hunts. I have been building elk points here in Colorado for awhile as I want to do a wilderness guided M/L elk hunt. Doing a little additional research on a few outfitters. This will probably be my last backcountry hunt (I'll be 78 next year), so I...
