    Maybe "Camp pics" or "fishing hole"...whoops.

    If you find out any more info, I'd love to hear it. I'm wondering if he went in the ramp or if he went down the bank in the background.

    Ban the biscuits and open flames!

    A few years ago our homeowners insurance went up and the more we looked into the more ridiculous it got. They added random coverages(like exotic pet ownership) and caused our rate to increase. In the process though we were able to figure out that roof replacement due to hail wasn't covered...

    Would make for a real bad day

    Never thought of that. I've had one for a few years in mine but it is almost empty so maybe that helped.

    Great Social Media posts?

    I did that once as a kid and ended up with a similar result. Small piece of shrapnel near my knee, but not near as much blood.

    Bad deal...

    After the first power blip, you can see a ton of black smoke coming out of the exhaust. I'm assuming the pilot threw it in reverse. It's also hard to tell if it was the wind, tide, or if he let the anchor out but I wonder if he could've saved it if the power didn't go out a second time. Since...

    I need a turkey gun

    Agree 100%. I use a Mossberg 500A with a 660 Rhino choke and red dot. The only thing I've changed in 15 years is shells. I switched from a 3" Federal normal turkey load to the Longbeard XRs a few years ago.

    I need a turkey gun

    It wouldn't be legal in most states. #4s are the biggest shot that's legal where I hunt.

    Sh*t our wives do...

    Then she'll think you're accusing her of gaining weight.

    Thinking about Busnell optics? DON'T

    The only Bushnell I have is on my .22. It's still kicking after 15 or so years. About 10 years ago I left it outside and moisture got in so I unscrewed the ocular lens and let it dry out. Reinstalled it but I now have a slight blur at certain yardages. 🙃 Bushnell is not a brand I would buy...

    Ethics of removing tree stands from public land

    I've always been leery of removing them for the same reason. I have taken one though. I saw it one year during late deer season with limbs on it, obviously not being used. The next year the tree it was in fell so it was on the ground but in good shape. After the next season, I went back...

    19 years ago yesterday……..

    I never got to see Chris in person, but was able to see his son Ned and he put on a good show.

    Fully guided Elk hunt or Braces?

    I did good with the retainer but didn't have my bottom wisdom teeth pulled(dentist opinion) because they weren't bothering me. Now my bottom front teeth are a little crowded.

    Did you shoot your first deer with open sights?

    I'm surprised it took 4 pages for this to come up. I had killed 2-3 deer with my bow before I even took a shot at one with a gun. But my first gun kill was with a Mossberg 500A with a red dot. It was my turkey gun, but came with 2 barrels so I swapped the smoothbore for the rifled barrel. I...

    Velocity Observations: First v Second Shot…

    I almost didn't qualify for a special park-type hunt because my first clean shot was almost 2" to the left of my aim point. I needed to keep 3 shots in a 4" circle. I adjusted for the next and aimed 1" to the right and hit where I aimed.
