    What is a Bucc-ees?

    I stopped at one once. I appreciated the clean restrooms and all the food options. But I’m more of quick drain and fill pit stop mentality. If you or your traveling companions are the type that needs to stop for 20 minutes to a half hour to walk around then it's great.

    What is you "Happy Place"?

    Mine is my hunt shack in AL. I am happy generally anywhere but most happy and excited being in camp with my hunting buddies. I also really enjoy the couple weeks I spend at my cousins club house in Ohio every year. I am happiest around my own kind and the whole deer camp experience. I’m 61...

    How young is too young to hunt.

    Its all about the kid ,preparation and experience. If the kid has been shooting at the range and tagging along on hunts for a while that is a lot different than just tossing a kid a rifle. About 9 is where I have seen kids with experience do good behind a rifle shooting along side an adult on...

    Two rifles, One Caliber?

    I dont reload but at one time I used two 30-06 rifles as primary and back up. A Browning A bolt and a Ruger tanger. The ABolt shot Hornadys best and the Ruger shot Remington Green box the best.

They don't get any use as I prefer my 7mm08 for whitetail. If I really knew what I was doing when I bought those rifles I would have and...

    Boot insulation

    Its very unlikely I will ever buy a pair of hunting boots again with more than 400 thinsulate. I used to buy up to a 1000. Then I went with less insulation in my boot in my boot and a better sock system. I have found this to work in a lot of weather and activity situations. There are so many...

    Centerfire rifles - your path

    40 some years ago I got started like many. I used my semi auto shotgun for everything. A bag full of bird shot, turkey shot and some slugs. I could barely afford the gas to get to and around the woods. At that time the lack of finances drove equipment purchases with many want and needs and...

    Arbitrary Hunting Goals

    My Grinder Sucks - Grinder reviews

    This. I started with a 5lb stuffer. It stuffed just fine. But pain to refill. I bought a 15 soon after.

    Thompson Center coming back

    I have an Encore. ML barrel, .45 long/.410 barrel, 44 mag and a 7mm08 pistol barrel. I been wanting to hunt whitetails with the 7mm08 for years but just never have. I am somewhat doubtful I will by any more barrels. I use my ML barrel and thats about it.
