    The July/August Fat Off

    Any idea what the total weight loss was for this little friendly competition? I don't think it was anywhere near 500lbs but it would be interesting to see how everyone finished. I was down 12½ lbs July 1st to September 1st, 25lbs since March or April.

    MT Region 7 BMA's

    We didn’t realize that we could’ve called last week to get numbers for BMA’s so that really kind of screwed us. I thought a few years ago we could reserve some BMA’s through the office but others we had to call the owner. Looks like we’ll just have to hunt more BLM and state land.

    MT Region 7 BMA's

    Anyone else that hunts in Region 7 have issues reserving BMA's? It seems like almost everyone we called on the last few days is booked. We're thinking it may be a sign of how the hunting pressure may be this fall.

    The July/August Fat Off

    I love my Garmin watch for tracking all of that as well. The technology that they can put in watches these days just blows my mind.

    The July/August Fat Off

    Thanks BC! Sometimes I just need a little boost of confidence. When I started running two months ago I was lucky to run 30 seconds without sucking wind. Now I'm up to 2½ miles every other day and for some sick reason I actually look forward to getting my morning run in.

    The July/August Fat Off

    Weighed in at 228.0 this morning. Only down .6 of a lb since last Tuesday. The wife needs to stop bringing home mint oreos and brownies for the kids. I've had good will power lately but not that good.

    The July/August Fat Off

    I somehow managed to get a run in this morning, longest run to date for me. 72 degrees with 89% humidity at 5:15, nasty. Weighed in after my shower at 228.0lbs. Down 3.6lbs since Wednesday. I'll take it...

    The July/August Fat Off

    After camping on a holiday weekend, I didn't bother to weigh in this morning. I'll try to weigh in tomorrow morning after my run. Maybe I'll lose 5lbs of water weight with this ridiculous humidity here this week.

    The July/August Fat Off

    July 1st weigh in....#231.6. I'm shooting for a #20 drop at minimum by November 1st. Ideally #30 would be better but I've gotta start small or I'll get frustrated.

    Alternate Venison Roast usage

    I've done quite a few corned venison roasts this year already. It's turned into one of our favorites because we can have so many different meals with it from reuben sandwiches to breakfast hash.

    The July/August Fat Off

    I'm on a mission to lose a good 20-25lbs before November as well. I started running the middle of May and was watching my sugar intake and portion control. I was down close to 10lbs before we went to Colorado and the Black Hills for vacation last week. Unfortunately the wheels fell off and I...

    2020 Turkey Picture Thread

    Thanks Bonecollector. This is the second bird that she's shot in the last three years. Her first bird was 23lbs with a 10½" beard. Both of my girls have shot bigger toms than I have and I'm perfectly fine with that!

    Reusing fry oil

    Question for you guys on deep frying. I deep fried a turkey on Friday for the first time in years. However, I had issues with keeping the oil hot. I brought the oil temp up to 325 before I dropped the bird in. The oil temp dropped to 225 right away so I tried adjusting the regulator to get the...

    The Wild Game Eats Thread...

    I've never had venison bacon before so I decided I'd try making some myself once. I started with 15lbs of venison and 10lbs of pork. I was a little worried about making 25lbs of bacon right off the bat considering I had never done it before but after burning through two grinders and making a...

    Shed Hunting Tips (for dog training)

    Check out Dog Bone Hunter on youtube or his website, Dogbonehunter.com. He does a great job breaking down every step and explaining it. I bought his shed training DVD a few weeks ago and have been implementing a lot of those things into my training. I have an 18 month old golden/lab mix that...
