Economical vertical smoker
I wasn't happy with the small wood tray in my Masterbuilt so I took the lid off of it and set a 10 inch cast iron pan on top of the OEM tray. That gives me enough space for the chunks ( not chips) and it carries me through the smoking process. I bought some heat proof weather striping for the...- Boarmaster

Economical vertical smoker
I would go Masterbuilt electric if you really want to control temps. I currently use a Masterbuilt Thermo Temp gas smoker at camp. It has a thermo state that regulates the flame holds temp as good as any I have seen. But I sort of wonder how long it will last with that thermo gizmo on it. No...- Boarmaster

Kayaks?
If your going to buy a peddle drive buy the best quality you can afford or are willing to spend. I kayak fish in the saltwater flats. My buddy had a pelican and really liked it but most avid kayak anglers down my way have Hobies. Its a tough area on equipment. I still use my Ocean Big game 2...- Boarmaster

Another poll for Little Debbie, Hostess, etc
We just call them Little Debbies in general but since on hunting trips we always have more than one type its necessary to be more specific. When asking for your buddy setting closest to the boxes you ask for a Swiss Cake , Zebra , Oatmeal cookie or Christmas cake. If you don't give a hoot you...- Boarmaster

If a guy wanted to retire in Wyoming what towns should he look at?
Nothing wrong with planning and having a dream. Bear in mind if the place you’re dreaming of and planning for will still be the dream 10-20 years down the road. Nothing wrong with moving again after you retire and live in a place awhile and find its not what your looking for but moving is...- Boarmaster

7mm-08?
This. Im speaking only as a deer hunter here. I use a 7mm08 as my primary rifle. I really love mine. That said I wouldn't recommend it to a new deer hunter. Not that I get asked more than a couple times a year but I have been saying 6.5 CM. Its just easier to find ammo and there are more choices...- Boarmaster

Average/preferred whitetail rifle weight for blind/stand hunting
8.5lbs. Barrel no longer than 22. Straight comb stock. STD cal. 8-8.5 is heavy enough to be steady on the shooting rail but light enough to handle easily if I need to shoot without a rest. Not too much recoil. Straight comb in case I am taking a shot and not able to get my rifle squared up. I...- Boarmaster
