    Sounds like your Dad might have got lucky on that hunt. :) Did he shoot a deer?

    Fair Chase?

    I'm old enough that during primary school the teachers were still allowed to give "swats". They usually deferred that to the principal who was about 6'2" and 250 pounds. He made the kids get in front of the class and bend over to touch their toes. He had a huge paddle that had 1 inch holes...

    Fair Chase?

    Probably the biggest reason i didn't become an engineer and changed to computer science was due to the horrible instructors in the physics and math departments. How can they be allowed to teach college level classes when they have a vocabulary of a first grader. I could at least understand all...

    Fair Chase?

    I find it amazing the products that were built before CAD took over. When it was still McDonnell Douglas i used to travel to long beach California in support of the md80 and md95 programs. They had hangers full of paper in support of the programs. Some data packages were so big they had to be...

    Best trailer tires?

    I haven't had good luck with trailer tires. We have a place here that sells used tires. They get them from wrecked cars and sometimes they are almost brand new. I've had good luck. It's just a utility trailer rated at 3000 pounds so not that big.

    Why the animosity?

    The bill is nothing more than a way to hijack the current process so that more and more tags go to ranchers and outfitters who can then turn each tag into more and more money. It begins and ends with greed and screws the regular joe out of even more tags that should be available to the public...

    Why the animosity?

    My only gripe is subsidies paid out as access to permits and tags. Almost everyone is on the take, I claim mortgage interest on my taxes. Retirees rely on social security and medicare. All considered "welfare" programs by the feds. As the grandson of a dairy farmer I understand the...

    Why the animosity?

    Yeah. I get it. But the biggest cost for folks is not the price of the tag but the opportunity for the tag. I just dont think tags should be taken out of the pool of tags for special interest groups. Not a fan of auction tags either which allow the mega rich the opportunity to cut in line.

    Why the animosity?

    Exactly. So why the tag give away to ranchers?

    Why the animosity?

    No. It's common knowledge that agriculture has been subsidized for decades. Plenty of information out there.

    Why the animosity?

    So just because someone is a rancher they should be entitled to elk permits which can then be sold to outfitters? What about giving a bunch of permits to some disabled veterans? How about we set aside a bunch more for first responders, lord knows they deserve them. How about we take a bunch...

    How many of you will get the Covid shot?

    Anyone ever tell you that you are a glass half empty kind of guy? :)

    Why the animosity?

    Ranchers and farmers are already the biggest welfare recipients by a very large margin, why do they need more handouts in the way of game permits? Ranchers and farmers are able to lease federal lands for pennies on the dollar, why do they need more handouts in the way of game permits? Ranchers...

    How many of you will get the Covid shot?

    Gasping for breath for weeks until your oxygen levels get so low that you die doesn't sound like "luck" to me.

    How many of you will get the Covid shot?

    Arm was a little sore for about 24 hours. Happy to report I haven't heard from Bill Gates and haven't lost or added any appendages.

    How many of you will get the Covid shot?

    I just got back from getting my first shot. The national guard is doing the coordination at our regional convention center. I must say the experience was excellent. I was kinda expecting a shitshow. It was extremely well organized. Appointment was at 1:10pm and was out the door by 1:20.
