There are mountain lions in Ohio. Someone hit one with a car not too long ago.

Edit: Update, A friend told me this the other day, not sure I believe him. I looked on the Internet for a source and could not find one. So disregard please. :oops:

I saw some of these when I was kid at the zoo at least 30 years ago. I forget which zoo, probably Columbus, Ohio. :)

I got mine today, thanks Lou. I really like the new color also. I think this one is going on the mag and one of the first two I bought on the vixen. Now I have two spares.

You can tell they are very well made, especially the serving, nice.

If I were you I would cancel the check. I don't like to pay with checks, too much personal info on it. A check has your routing # and account # on it, most times address and phone.

Well my hunting pal and I are going to put up 2 more tree stands and an elevated blind on the old inside field. This field use to be farmed but not for a decade and it is right smack in the middle of the woods we hunt. I am going to start making mock scrapes early, probably August. I will be putting...

I haven't missed yet. If you go to the hardware store, bring along a field point. You can find washers with the same diameter hole as the threaded part of the tip. I've used them on both aluminium and carbon bolts and haven't broken one yet. -Jason I may try this for turkey. Do you think I can shoo...

I live in Ohio, saw a group of about 5 along the edge of the woods in a harvested corn field. I saw some nice turkey tracks last week while I was deer hunting.

I plan to spring hunt for turkey. First try at it.
