There is high-percentage of hunters out there who have had property walk away. I've lost a ground blind on one property and three stands on another. The three stands tick me off the most. I lost three stands and two other gentlemen who hunted the same property lost three between them. We all had a '...

Give me a honk and a wave in the KW area and I promise to be just as friendly back...heck, I give a friendly wave to the antis who honk their horns and shake their fists at me...and not even a middle finger wagging wave. Lots said for being polite... http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj3/DirtyGun/D...

I now shoot a Mathews Switchback XT, which I still think is the best bow Mathews has ever made (not to knock the new offerings...) after shooting a BowTech for a few years. I miss having a crossbow around in the late season, particularly mid-December when a few hours in the treestand makes you wonde...

As I said before...I hope the guys get what they deserve. I'm not going to argue the wording on Probation Orders, Recognizances and Undertakings...sometimes it's specific and sometimes you just put in what the Crown expects to be there...at least that's what I've done in the past.

Cheers!

They cut down trees, I don't understand why this makes them responsible for a trail cam theft? Why would someone who steals something return and cut down trees? "Just knowing" they are there to steal feeders doesn't by any means make them guilty for a missing camera or a crime that hasn't...

Regarding Scent Lok...save your money. Rudimentary science proves that the claims the company is making are false.

As many have already stated, it's best to just accept the loss and move on. I don't use trail cameras for the simple reason that even on private land, they're targets for theft. I lost the first one I ever bought and haven't purchased one since. I've also lost three ladder stands and a ground blind....

I've gone more 'portable' since losing three stands last year a few weeks before the season to thieves on one of my properties outside of Milton that I share with two other gentlemen. Between the three of us, we lost a total of eight. I lent one of them my ground blind for the rest of the season and...

Being the husband of a nurse...I sincerely wish that hospitals would at least print up a bill for every patient after their stay so they'd have an idea of just how much it cost the Canadian taxpayer for them to receive the care they did. One of the major problems with our healthcare system is that m...

The issue with 'The General' was solved with the recall a while ago. No issues since. If you're looking to purchase one used, just be sure that the limbs have been replaced as per the recall.
