Coastal Black Bears- Why do you go? Why Don't you go?
I am fat, at least of varying grades depending on what I'm hunting that year. This year I'm "Sheep" fat. I was not aware of meat issues in spring, and was shocked at how great my spring SK. bear tasted changing forever my interest in hunting them. I don't see that.. 6D is a registration hunt, I...- Ballistic

Coastal Black Bears- Why do you go? Why Don't you go?
I've become extremely interested in other adventures with some of the most common ones enduring intense pressure in recent years. Given the lengths one has to go for caribou or Moose hunting, I'm looking at Bears and deer around prince William sound. If you hunt coastal bears what do you like...- Ballistic

What are your 2026 Outdoor Plans
I have a bit of Walleye fishing to do on the Erie Detroit River area from March until Mid-May then setting up camp at my place in the U.P. My daughter is going to college this summer but it's in Marquette so we'll probably be able to check in on here there. I'm not chasing any of the usual...- Ballistic

Ran its course, now in the weeds.
The advice to a 16 year old is based on a 50 year timeframe, not 10. I'm not familiar with this source so I'll have to take a look at how to find relevant data over a lifetime of investing of Index funds VS. Large Cap growth. Edit: after brief research you still may be correct- Ballistic

I didn't see the other responses, fair enough. I think the next 3 will be down, but I have for the last 7. If the time horizon is 10+years, I'm still in. If we're trying to flip a few bucks, heck no! Some really thoughtful responses here.- Ballistic

Yup, but Even if you lost the full 31% on 2007-8, you were whole by 2010 and extremely wealthy by 2015. I'm looking at the market since it's inception- Ballistic

I can't even follow this.. You want me to teach you like you're 16, but you are actually a non-working retiree whom still has a freaking mortgage? For 16 year olds: Forget Index funds. Index funds are for pu$$ies. You don't win with index funds, you just don't lose. You've got access to the...- Ballistic

Hammer Bullets - what makes them so great?
Unless you were measuring powder with a shot glass, that ain't it. A full grain of powder usually doesn't yield 55 FPS of velocity difference. What's your fill ratio?- Ballistic

Is a custom rifle worth it
Lord Willing, I'll never shoot a factory rifle again. Accuracy is only part of it.
