    I agree. Also will enjoy the fodder it will give to all the ND fans still whining. Never heard an explanation for Alabama not dropping a single seed after their terrible showing against Georgia.

    ‘I Didn’t Vote for This’: A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country

    Growing up I always viewed the Presidential election as choosing between 1st and 2nd. Took me into my late 20's to realize it's actually choosing 9th and 10th place with no choice given for the other 8. Now I'm thinking it's more like 99 and 100. Very frustrating. Where are the George...

    Hunting Leases/Kids Hunting/Drury Syndrome

    Wow, never even occurred to me this is happening. I'm sure it is. Times really have changed. I'm only 37. This thread gives me a lot to think on, generally regarded the QDMA as a net positive on hunting but good post above illustrating the outcomes. I don't have kids, but me and most of my...

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    Never would have guessed hunting Norris Road would get that many views. Crazy to me. I’m sorry, I know you really loved that spot.

    I gotta quit drinking.

    Runs in my family. Never been an issue for me, thankfully, I didn’t taste it until 6 months after I was 21 because of the fear DARE and seeing my dad drunk every weekend. Uncle had a pretty bad episode a couple years ago. Made me really think. I would drink maybe 2-3 beers a week. More I...

    to those who'd leave their dog(s) in a crate all day

    The Greys have us all crate, I mean home, trained. We go to work and always come back to our structures. If we stay out of our homes (crates) long enough we get into trouble and end up starting wars and setting off A Bombs and such. It’s really a matter of perspective. If you can’t have...

    Truck/Camp Chainsaw

    @mtmuley here you go. For some reason this guy also made me think of you even sans your comment above, .300RUM is also a do-it-all cartridge! 😆

    Do you ever just re-use the premix cans?

    Truck/Camp Chainsaw

    Ended up pulling the trigger on the Echo 2511PN w/ 12" bar, on sale at Arlington Equipment with free shipping, mostly in part because it's "the lightest chainsaw in North America." Didn't go electric for the same reason I probably won't ever own an electric motorcycle, just doesn't feel right...

    How about an Eastern US hunting issue?

    Are there that many does? Maybe he is actually helping, doesn’t QDMA advocate a 1:1 buck doe ratio?

    ‘I Didn’t Vote for This’: A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country

    https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/watch-i-have-nothing-to-do-with-project-2025-trump-says He answered the question definitively and directly, which is more than politicians usually do. Easy to say he was lying then, now. But unless you have some sort of magic 8 ball figuring out when a...

    ‘I Didn’t Vote for This’: A Revolt Against DOGE Cuts, Deep in Trump Country

    Exactly, I said before the election how frustrating/sad/disappointing it was that our options were Trump or Biden, and then Trump or Harris. For me, the Dems skirting due electoral process and pretending Biden was something he evidently was not to the majority of Americans until it was too late...

    Alpacka Raft Mule

    Ranger is available in self-bailer only? Is your Mule self-bailer or open? Open seems to be what I'd lean towards, not a fan of wet butt, but realize water dripping off paddle may result in wet butt regardless?

    Alpacka Raft Mule

    Just clarifying, did you stick with the 210D for the raft you bought? The weight isn’t as big of factor as it’s less than a lb more but packability and cost ($200 more), sounds like 210 is plenty tough. Also, do you think it would resist a knife puncture if my knife fell off my pack while...
