Re: Scope or Red dot

One Shot has a good point re illumination. I love my red dot, but in low light conditions it is darker than normal vision, sooo... something to consider. ;)

Re: Smoked Turkey Breasts

Just a suggestion re. pan rust out. I picked up a small cast iron tray that fit smoker, has served me well for yrs. Breasts look yummy! But then again most usually do to me.;)

Re: Speaking of ticks

My thoughts exactly.GROSS
Sad to see this influx, although all the deer I saw were prime, I have seen what ticks can do to moose.
