    Social Distancing - What's Everyone Doing?

    I was holding fence posts for my dad when I was about 10 years old and he was standing on the tailgate of his ford bronco (Like OJ's but his wasnt white..) driving them in because they were so long. Handle broke and the head of that sledge hammer missed my face my about 1/2"....It would have...

    pump action 12 ga versus 45-70 lever rifle for alaskan bear defense

    I started to cast and powder-coat my own HV 3.5" 00 buckshot shells. I dont think there is an animal in North America could survive a direct hit to the face with that stuff. I have no doubt a brown bear is tough. But I dont think they could take that kind of a beating.. Never killed a brown or...

    pump action 12 ga versus 45-70 lever rifle for alaskan bear defense

    Personally, I would have one of these on my side If I was in heavy bear country. http://www.winchesterguns.com/products/shotguns/super-x4/super-x4-current-products/sx4-cantilever-buck.html Or something of the sort. But it certainly would not be a pump shotgun as I have personally watched a lot...

    TEAMWORK Reminds me of when I played baseball. I quickly realized at a young age that my team didn't suck, it was me that sucked at baseball. But I still played for a few years giving it my best shot. When I realized just how bad I truly was compared to the other kids I quit and then I...

    Father-in-law has the Browning HC 6.5 manbun. The barrell is way too long for my liking. Its annoying.

    Mid thirties heading for the upper this summer and I dont work for Eastman's. Instead, I identify as a slave to the oil and gas industry who up until about a month ago was on track to retire by my mid 50's. After checking my retirement funds this morning I may have to work until I am 90 lol

    MT Mule Deer over $600?

    I may continue to pay for the high dollar tags in my lifetime but know this, in our kids lifetime, they will not pay the price. Its just isn't going to be worth it to them. The die hard hunters are doing just that, pricing ourselves our of a sport and dying off while we do it. I have a bunch...

    2020 Turkey Picture Thread

    Water needs to be 5 more degrees warmer. This weekend could potentially be very good depending on what this rain does to the water temps. Gar and carp are staging up and starting to spawn way back in the trees cause the water level is so high. I will likely be out of the boat stalking the...

    2020 Turkey Picture Thread

    Fink, I truly wish they would move the season a couple weeks further down the calendar. As you can imagine, I have voiced my concerns, written letters, taken surveys, spoken directly to biologists, e-mailed my next findings. etc etc. Bottom line is that these GA boys dont like change. Its the...
