Why I love labs
What other dog but a Lab would let a two year-old kid give it a makeover ... with Butt Paste! Ellie is also an avid gamer. Labs can be a handful ... in all the right ways.- OntarioHunter

Hauling goose decoys
I made this carrier from a golf cart. The shelf is hinged and folds flat. Once two dozen shell deeks are set out and I'm in cover, the cart is collapsed and covered with the bag. Game cart would work better I'm sure. I bought this golf cart at a used sporting goods store for almost nothing...- OntarioHunter

FWP Fisheries Director Ousted?
Correct me if I'm wrong but putting someone on administrative leave means they are still accumulating tenure that counts towards retirement and pension. Putting some senior management public official on administrative leave with no explanation cited really opens the rumor gate. It sure doesn't...- OntarioHunter

Because Dad did!
WWII Springfield 30-06 (he built them both); Browning A5 shotgun (his was actually Remington Model 11 but essentially the same gun); beer (any brand); NO smokes (he quit when I was four); no gambling; Labrador retreivers.- OntarioHunter

300 prc
Wow! What brought on that irrational response? I would suggest a reloading forum but I suspect you've already been banned? I shot one round of 300 PRC two years ago in Africa. Property owner handed me his rifle at his very fancy range. I hit the target about 2" to the right of the bull ...- OntarioHunter

4 days in New Orleans
Is what it is. That environment appeals to some folks. NO is known as the San Francisco of the East. Or that's what they called it back when I worked there. Didn't bother me.- OntarioHunter

4 days in New Orleans
Yeah. The French Quarter didn't do a lot for me when I worked in New Orleans back in 1987. Check out the Park Service visitors center. Find something to visit away from the core.- OntarioHunter

4 days in New Orleans
The French Quarter is not really kids entertainment. A lot of gay hookers there and gays looking to hook up so be aware of that. Doesn't bother me but not something I would want to be explaining to my kids. Check out the National Park Service visitors center on the end of Canal Street. There...- OntarioHunter

Offseason Tinkering
I switched the stock on my 404 Jeffery to something used I picked up online. Went from this one that I did up last year when I built the rifle: To this. The new used stock didn't have any reinforcement and very little bedding. An internal crack had already started between the trigger box...- OntarioHunter

Tips for Adding New (second) Pup to Home?
We are talking Labs. You will have no problems. My older Labs always took to the new puppy in the house like it was the child they never had. My French Brittany pretended to ignore Lab puppy Ellie for first six weeks. Unknown to us, she was playing with the puppy in the back yard when no one...- OntarioHunter

Help. Need a turkey tail asap.
My Fr Britt attacked a client's turkey tail that was spread and drying. We've managed to save most of the big feathers but several of the secondaries are beyond repair. Anyone have a turkey tail you can spare? I have a US address you can ship it to where I can pick it up. Help my daughter...- OntarioHunter
