Preach on Grizz, preach on! My wife is a county employee and when she was promoted, she received a nice parking spot in the county parking lot. Well, last week her supervisor advised her that someone had complained about the bumper stickers on her suv. One says " one nation UNDER GOD !!! "...

BPS uses the loss leader strategy to get you in there. They offer one or two things on sale that they might take a loss selling so you will come in and look around. That's why some of their prices are high on other things. I don't buy anything there that's not on sale. Get on their mailing list. The...

There's a company called Bushrag that makes a good suit. I think they even have fibers other than burlap.

She already approved a new pistol or rifle, but I'm having trouble choosing. It's between a Ruger SA in .41mag, or a Savage in 7mm-08.

I'll probably put it off a little longer and get both!

That Vixen is absolutely worth every penny you pay for it.

Vixen Rocks!

With the onset of rifle season, I have been neglecting shooting the Vixen. Today I went out for some practice before the second archery segment here begins. Some time ago, I got tired of shooting at the big white target squares on my target and stenciled some acorns on there. The acorns are about th...

A Ghillie is a word for gamekeeper (Welsh or Scot?). So this technique is anything but new. I still have the shirt I made, but it doesn't fit anymore :? . If I had to make another I would use the synthetic net they sell, the kind that is die-cut from the ripstop stuff. It would be cooler and wouldn'...

Having worn a ghillie suit, I can tell you, they get hot really fast. They snag everything they touch, trap scent, and when they get wet, they weigh a ton. I opted to make my own instead of using the full suit.

Could let him play on the freeway. :lol: I wasn't pretending to want input, the above post was the last one I saw before going to bed. You will notice I stay up late if you look at the time it was posted, and I said earlier in the thread I was going out the next day and that I had no interest in ke...

OK, well I missed a couple of days on the computer and I come back to find disharmony amongst the ranks! To clarify, the pics I posted are of a dead adult coyote. It's not a very good one as I took it thru my scope, but it was dark when I left, so no close-up. I have a good close-up of the one I sho...

I like a lot of his platform, but I don't think he has a chance. I think if he runs independent in the general election, he will lose and pull just enough conservative voters for Hillary to win if the election is close. I suspect this might have something to do with his fund-raising success. I think...

I took the pup out to the stand today and released it. I didn't have to stake it out there, it just hung around at the base of the stand whining and howling. It got the attention of one coyote, but once the lead started flying, the pup took off into the woods where it will likely grow up to eat my t...
