Re: Gun Registry

Pydpiper - where would this Right be from? An amendment to our Bill of Rights? Who in your life has stopped you from purchasing, trading, selling or collecting hunting rifles, target shooting rifles or handguns? I haven't. Ever. Not once. If you have - why? under what circumstances? Details would h...

Re: Gun Registry

Who in your life has stopped you from purchasing, trading, selling or collecting hunting rifles, target shooting rifles or handguns?

Re: Gun Registry

Privilege?? Really? I am a citizen, a man, and I think I should have the RIGHT to pursue my own direction without having my balls tied up by the self richeous government or anyone else who thinks their life is about standing in line waiting for their next instruction from a "better" being...

I'll say this Helmut - even on a Nyquil high you've string together a few paragraph with which I fully agree with you. Well said.

Re: Gun Registry

Vote not likely until Monday or Tuesday, while the PM is still in China currently, selling our oil. ;) He has to sell it somewhere. It would seem our friends to the south dont want it right now :cry: Just the Obamafied ones... ;) Guess that includes the Republican governor Dave Heineman and Republi...

Re: Phoenix for Moose

I found this answer as to their eyesight. Moose do not see well at close range and must roll their eyes forward in order to see items up close. This is not due so much to poor vision as it is to eye placement. Because their eyes are set more to the sides of the head they have a rather large blind s...

Re: Phoenix for Moose

Welcome aboard Jumper. You should be fine with the Phoenix and a solid BH as many have already said. I myself went with the Equinox as my choice of xbow for Moose, but that's strickly a personal choice - the lighter and lesser fps Excals like the Phoenix will work just fine! Whereabout in Northern O...

Re: GPS

I have the Garmin GPS Map62 and it's a great unit! A few dollars more, but well worth it.

Re: Acquiring Hunting Knowledge

X2 to what Kelley said. There is simply no way that you can fool a big game animal such as Moose or Deer who rely SO much on their nose and ears. IMO you must take every precaution you can – they are all variables that you can control. It’s the little details that will get you. Say you fill up your ...
