    Vegas

    Hard to go wrong with just about any of the shows. The Cirque du Soliel ones are fantastic. Idk what kind of gambler you are, but I hate losing any real money. I also like free drinks. What I’ve found works best for me is sitting at the video poker machines at the bars on the floor, pop $30ish...

    if your Rifle was a Vehicle

    Savage model 11 = 2000s CRV Does it look good?…no Is it particularly comfortable?…also no. But does it work? Yes, and probably will forever. My bubba’d Chinese sks? That’s a lifted Mazda Miata. Only thing dumber than how it looks is how much fun it is.

    Good day on Siltcoos Lake

    It’s a lot of fun. Takes a little bit of $$ for waders and such, but going with a guide was a good choice I think. For about the cost a set of waders he provided all of the decoys, the boat, the trained dog, and the know how. If you think of it as renting all of those services, it’s an...

    Good day on Siltcoos Lake

    Had a beautiful morning on Siltcoos Lake hunting some ducks. First ones I’ve ever harvested, too! my guide was excellent, very polite and patient with my lack of knowledge and experience. I definitely got my money’s worth in tips & wisdom alone. At the end of the day, I went home with a nice...

    .22 ricochet (close call)

    That sounds more like the slide bit you in the webbing. Pretty common with certain designs if you’re holding too high up on the grip.

    .22 ricochet (close call)

    glad everyone’s ok. Bet the boy remembers this for life. He’ll probably be the safest one on the range for the rest of his life too. Where I grew up in Ohio there was a range that used old tractor tires as the backstops & target stands. I took my sister out shooting one time, after having just...

    oregons new eastern oregon unit change for 2026

    Re: the prison sentence, I would want that would depend on the severity of the offense. Poaching is a broad term, and not all offenses are the same. Using the incorrect tackle in certain waters is still considered poaching, even if they haven’t caught anything. Seems extreme to go to prison...

    oregons new eastern oregon unit change for 2026

    poaching seems like a problem that could be addressed more effectively with drone surveillance. Get a drone operator to buzz the night skies near suspected poaching activity, especially if it’s a drone with thermal imaging, and they’d locate them pretty handily. Then it’s just a matter of...

    oregons new eastern oregon unit change for 2026

    Haven't hunted the east side yet. I’ve just been buying points thus far, but think 2026 may be the year I actually apply. A friend of mine’s daughter’s boyfriend just drew an antelope tag this year with 0 points, so it can happen. I like the intention behind moving away from managing the hunts...

    Rifle Identification?

    That’s awesome. A real piece of history you’ve got there

    The Great HT 2026 weigh in.

    I’ve been sitting around 225 most of my adult life. The composition of those pounds has changed a good bit, though. My wife & I started working out 2-3 times a week in April, and it’s paying off. Not getting any lighter, but stronger and leaner, so I don’t complain too much. I also keep 10lb...
