    Fuel prices affect

    When you have to pay people (who made $8/hr two years ago) $16/hr to come back to work. That has adverse effects right up through the chain. Its affecting everything from food to fuel. This IS the new norm for fuel. I doubt you will EVER see the price of fuel go back down below $4/gallon.

    Fuel prices affect

    I grew up 30 miles form where the first oil well was ever drilled in the US (Drakes well). Drake Well Museum and Park | Drake Well Museum I have been working in the oil and gas arena for the last 16 years. Its an ebb and flow depending on the current administration and peoples emotions.

    Fuel prices affect

    ^^ ~60 miles each way for me. Soul crushing when prices are high. I drove to Richmond on Monday and I was thankful that my 2500 truck averaged 25.1 MPG. We had a pile of gift cards from cableas and ordered us a Kodiak Canvas 8 person tent to avoid pulling the enclosed trailer to Colorado...

    Secondary Draw

    I might be wrong here but I believe that ALL under-subscribed and surrendered tags (tags taking 5 points or less) prior to population of the secondary draw list get put into the the secondary draw. (Excluding those that take 6 points or more , these go to the next person in line). So my...

    Secondary Draw

    SOOO many tags turned back in as per usual. I wonder how point creep would be reduced if the people who turned the tags back in lost their points...They need to seriously act on this sooner than later. I hope people aren't drawing these tags and then turning their tags back in immediately just...

    Gun Confiscation!

    Lesson time or not, I'm not banning together with a bunch of nut jobs just to get my agenda passed. I'll go down swinging before I make alliances with "people" who cant tell a boy from a girl and continue to incite looting/burning/killing in every city nationwide. I'll look past Wayne and be...

    WY Draw Odds & Numbers

    The real unfortunate part is that most people don't understand what the "90/5/5" is going to do to their chances (if it gets passed) of ever drawing a LQ tag. Most people will continue applying in hopes of drawing a random tag and hold onto the points until they die. Which in most situations...

    Gun Confiscation!

    Would you rather fight 1- 6'5" 300 pound dude or 4 -5'9" 160 pound dudes at one time? I'll take the big guy and hope to get lucky. lol The NRA should have gotten rid of Wayne. He has been a bruise on the NRA for the last several years. If he truly cared about the organization he should have...

    Hunting Philosophy as you get older

    Reminds me of when I moved from PA. I had a war chest of locations in the mountains with Snowshoe hares. I gave it to my trusted friend I hunted with for many years (who now owns his own beagles). When we opened the collection of maps and KMZ's he couldn't believe the intel I was giving him. I...

    Heading For Africa

    My dad shot a warthog (made a bad hit on it) on his last trip and they tracked it for 300 yards or so where it ran down a hole and the guides said they would go get it out of the hole when it started stinking and not a moment before then lol They sent him the tusks in the mail a few months...

    Antler rings

    VERY COOL! Love homemade stuff. I think that is why I like reloading so much. I measure my 2F black powder for my flintlock with a hole drilled in a spike antler I found when I was a kid. My buddy told me there was not was to accurately measure my powder like that....I laughed at him and said...
