    Randy Ulmer 2019 NV Archery Buck

    Kurt Darner is so long ago that I doubt that very many even remember him. But he was all the rave as far as shooting B&C mule deer and as you said it went that way until they threw the book at him. It turned out that most if not all of the big bucks that he shot were poached.

    I think that they got the years off a little bit but they are close.

    What Ticks Me Off......

    As I mentioned before, it is getting easier to find the things that don't tick me off than the ones that do.

    One more suggestion for you, on the solar panels if you go camping somewhere that there is a possibility of snow that won't melt off for a while have some way to get up on top where you can brush them off. My brother in law has them on the top of his slide in camper and when it snows I am the...

    Why use turn signals? It just gives that idiot behind you a excuse to keep you from going into the lane that you want to get into or for the guy to run that red light as you are about to turn not to mention that kid to start to cross the street right when you are going to make that right hand turn.

    For a deer you don't need a tack driver. 90% of the ammo out there will shoot good enough to kill a deer at 100-200 yards. Then next year when you have some time try out some different ammo if you are still planning on using it and find which one shoots the best. Then make a decision if you...

    Have you thought about putting a 2 inch receiver hitch on the rear of it? A simple bolt on one would work. It would be nice for some of the accessories that you can mount on it.

    What Ticks Me Off......

    Not to mention going through the drive through and not getting what you ordered and not finding out until you are back on the road. I tick people off as I sit in the drive through checking my order with the window attendent asking me to move my vehicle.

    I highly suggest that if it is too cold to let it dangle outside that you use a bucket or old coffee can and then dump it through the hole if you wish. Even the best of us have a hard time aiming at 3am in the morning. And if you don't believe me just ask your wife. On the heat in the trailer...

    I am also the type of person that likes to do things myself. But I have also found that repairing something that is broken that you got at a bargain is usually cheaper in the long run and you are not trying to put that square plug into that round hole. Even if you have a big enough hammer to...

    You may also find that after you have custom made your trailer that you could of picked up a ready built one on the used trailer market. There are a lot out there that have very little use and their owners get tired of owning something that isn't used.

    Rifle Slings

    I like the old leather military type of sling but on a lot of my rifles I have just gone to a simple 1" - 1 1/4" nylon one. I am still old school and like to wrap my arm around the sling to get a sturdier grip on the rifle when I am shooting either standing or sitting.

    Also hang them where you can see them from a distance along with what is around the area. Bears like people like to lay down and take a nap after a good feed, and they don't like to be woke up.

    I have found that as I get older it is easier to list the things that don't tick me off than the ones that do.
