Re: Looking for a new place to hunt

Gift cards to the local restaurant for the grandparents to use, might help a tad. Especially if grandson backs up your not causing crop damage.

Re: Venison Aging/Processing

Just as an added note,

All icechests,coolers, have the drain plug left open.
Nothing worse than game meat left soaking in a blood brine!

Add ice as needed, can be left for several days this way. Shifting or rotating gamebags as needed.

Re: Packing the Exomax

Sad to say but my exomax only gets out once a yr. Its during the HAM javelina season here in AZ.

Sorry to say here in AZ, I doubt there will be a separate crossbow season anytime in the near future.

Re: Need a better stool

I've used a metal milk crate for yrs.

Easy to just leave in the blind , woods.

Just get a nice thick cushion. You can easily attached a swivel seat, if needed.
