    Portable shooting benches

    MDF is still a decent price and I just might go with it. I may even go pick some up before it goes up in price.

    Rattle snake avoidance training

    I think that a Epi Pen would hurt more than it would help It contains epinephrine which is adrenaline and adrenaline is the last thing that you would need encase of a snake bite.

    Portable shooting benches

    My nephew and his wife are working on doing a addition to their home. The builder approached them and said that the price needs to be adjusted by $60,000 due to the price of lumber. They had already signed the contract but they negotiated it some where the builder didn't take it all in his...

    My #1 hit lister down.... but not by me

    That one is a great looking bull, too bad you son couldn't seal the deal on him, something about big odd looking 6 pts. We'll have to meet up here before too long. Matt has had my buck from Utah for just about a year now, everything got slowed up with this Corona junk. But he should be close...

    Portable shooting benches

    Those ladders are nice but when I look at the price of those new trucks I go home and pat my 24 year old paid for truck on the dash and tell it that it is going to have to make it a few more years.

    Wild - Grizzly Kills a Bull Elk

    That's a video that the Bambi huger's need to see. The only problem is that they would want whoever took the video to go shoo the bear away from the elk and then nurse the elk back to health. They haven't come to the realization that nature is a cruel master.

    Portable shooting benches

    I was actually going to build one once out of 3/4" plywood that had slots cut into the boards where it would fit together and then once weight was placed on it it would become solid. I got the idea after seeing on the Cabela's was selling for a couple hundred dollars but theirs bolted together...

    Range Finding Binos?

    I'm starting to see and hear more bad stuff about Vortex. Little problems that pop up that are hard to deal with in the field. One friend has what appears to be dust all over the inside of their spotting scope. Another is having problems with their binoculars holding focus. While Vortex's...

    Range Finding Binos?

    I have used some range finding bino's and like them but can't justify the cost of them when you can buy them separately for less. It is nice being able to look at the animal and just push a button and come up with the range but like anything there are trade offs. You also have to remember that...

    Portable shooting benches

    I know some folks that used the hood of their truck, that is until they shot a hole through the opposite side fender and hood.

    Portable shooting benches

    I'm high tech. I use my Colman stove stand and a piece of carpeted particle board that's about 2'x3" on top of it. Then just a folding chair to sit on. It works surprising well.

    base layer

    As for holding odor I don't know, I believe that there are some other there that claim that they don't. I'm not a big sweater so I don't worry too much about it. I have also learned to be a little bit miserable in the cooler mornings to be comfortable later. But then that is one thing that...

    skunked in Colorado

    You may of been a couple thousand feet too high for when the rut is kicking in. The bulls will be with the cows down lower. But the main thing is that you had fun and learned a few thing for the area that you were in. In the area that I am in the elevations run from 6,000-11,000 feet...

    base layer

    I have found that the cause of most of my base layers not fitting properly is that I have grown in ways and places that I really shouldn't. I purchase some of Cabela's thermals a very long time ago and they are very good as far as wear is concerned. In my old job I would put them on in...

    Sun shades

    They do that, it's like holding a empty cup out there so all the dirt and trash can fall into it. The last time that I used mine was in 2017 when I was on my coues deer hunt down in Arizona, and really didn't need it even with my shot being almost directly into the sun rise, however the sun...

    jocularity

    A small church had a very attractive big-busted organist named Susan, and her breasts were so large that they bounced and jiggled while she played the organ. Unfortunately, she distracted the men in the congregation considerably. The very proper church ladies were appalled. They said something...
