Your thread title sums up spring so far in my part of Iowa. If we even get a sole nice day/week. My younger kids play soccer, I've never seen a spring in almost 20 yrs here where so many games got canceled. Soil temps are among some of the coldest on record; famers around here are behind in...

Appreciate all the replies. I know they generally have a good reputation, but always like hearing about experiences from good people; that I've come to trust over the years, of hanging out on here. These shortages are forcing me branch out and try some different products.

My wife wants me to try those tubs for her dad, so he can grow some tomatoes on his deck back in western PA. I sorta rolled my eyes cuz I grow my stuff in long rows, old school; but I decided to take it seriously and give it a go to help my FIL. We'll see how this project goes. We need a week...

Great adventure, thanks for sharing!👍

Curious to hear about experiences with the Interlock? I know its an old cup and core design, not unlike the Sierra and Speers I've been using successfully in my .280; the last 6 head of game I killed didn't protest getting sent to heaven by non premium cup and core bullets. 200 gr spire point...

I think you had it right the 1st time. I get back to your 1st link for public comments on their April MTG. This is the only thing I see related to your post (#3 on their form), and honestly, probably thru my own ignorance, I don't understand how this would help/hurt me as a non resident hunter...

So, I followed your link; your post is about question #3?

Where there's a will, there's a way. I got started in my early 40s. It can be done on a shoestring budget. I don't have a fancy rifle. My truck is 10 yrs old. No, I don't have a trophy room with high scoring heads, but I've gotten out west to hunt almost every year for the last several; and...

This. I have ordered from them as well and been very pleased with their stuff. I make fresh Polish and Hungarian sausage from ground pork with their respective mixes. Delicious. When they run a reduced or free shipping special, I stock up. They have a very broad line of flavors. One of the few...

I can vouch for the Hi Mtn, Con Yeager and LEM kits for making snack sticks and summer sausage. A real, true Wisconsin summer sausage with a natural tang from a fermentation process is a bit of work, but many guys figure out how to do it, or you can sorta fake it with encapsulated citric acid or...

90/10 can KMA; and prob a lot of other NRs'. I can remember as a boy in the 1980s being thrilled hearing the Eastman's @ sporting shows in PA really promoting western hunting. The more well to do folks back east prob hired outfitters, some went on more spendy ranch hunts; others, maybe less...

It just depends on what tags I get/fill and how much time I'm able to hunt. Life between a large family and my work is busy, but I'm grateful for those times I get some wild game from a successful hunt to put on the table I have 7 kids, and they generally like wild game; so it doesn't last...

Sorry. AFAIK, if it's brown, it's down. I don't have the luxury of being choosy or lavish in my hunting kit, or the tags I can apply for; for the foreseeable future. If it wasn't for the reduced price tags, I would not have been able to hunt in 2018, 2019, 2021 in WY. Those hunts, aside from...

Yikes. That really stinks. Hoping if there is some class action suit you might get something back. I get what ppl say about trip insurance, but there is also something about the golden rule and doing the right thing in business. Trip insurance is like all these 'convenience' fees you now see all...

I'll have to read the fine print to see if it's legal for your area, but I picked up an interesting muzzleloader 15 yrs ago at auction that I enjoy. Pretty sure it's discontinued, though. It's a .54 cal T/C Thunderhawk. I'd call it a 1st generation inline? Very simple gun. It shoots...

I was looking at that line of kits and considering it. The last time I looked, no one had any in 35 Whelen. Do you know if those Shaw pre fits match the stock Savage barrel contour? (Edit: it says it matches the factory magnum contour, will need to see how that would work with my stock)...

Is there a number of how many people have been killed or maimed by grizzly bears in the lower 48 over the last 10 years? Killed or maimed in the outdoors by wild, free ranging grizzly bears; not zoo or circus accidents. How would that number compare to 50 yrs ago?

Interesting link to an old Popular Mechanics article with plans for a checkering cradle...

Unfortunately, all this mobile technology and high speed instant gratification has made it far too easy for knee jerk, thoughtless rhetoric. Prayers for his family.
